4. IP ADDRESSES, COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNOLOGY 

 

a. IP Addresses

 

R&G BRENNER maintains internal logs for Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to Your computer each time You access the Internet. Your IP address does not contain personally identifiable information. R&G BRENNER collects IP addresses in order to conduct system administration, report aggregate information, conduct site analysis, and to detect improper use of the site. R&G BRENNER sometimes uses IP addresses to identify the location of Your computer based on publicly available and third-party information and, if located, to market to You through internet marketing, mail or call campaigns, or online targeted, interest-based advertising.

 

b. Browser Cookies

 

R&G BRENNER uses “cookies” for authentication, other types of security, User log-ins, enabling our services collecting analytics information, marketing our services to You, sending You targeted advertising for our services, optimizing our Website, and personalizing and customizing Your web experience. By placing a small file known as a ““cookie” in Your browser, the web servers operated by R&G BRENNER and its third-party service providers can remember and distinguish Your web browser software over time. This is necessary in order to enable the functions described above. If You disagree with this use, You should turn off or disable “cookies” on Your browser or device. If You decline cookies, the Website, App and other online functions may not work properly or at all.  

 

c. Other Technical Information We Collect

 

In addition to using browser cookies to remember Your browser, R&G BRENNER  also may use other technologies such as pixels, local shared objects (such as “Flash cookies”), and HTML5 local storage to collect information and remember Your device. Some of the technical information we collect is the type of browser You use (such as Google Chrome or Firefox or Safari), Your Internet protocol (“IP”) address, the name of Your ISP, the version of Your operating system, the dimensions and resolution of Your display, Your referrer URL (which is the URL for the website that You were viewing prior to visiting the Website), how You were directed to the Website, which specific pages You access on the Website, how long You view each page, the time and date You access our Website, and any other interaction You have with the Website or R&G BRENNER  App. We use Your IP address and may use other third-party geolocation services to determine the physical location of Your computer or device. Most popular Internet browser applications will allow You to configure the browser so as not to accept cookies. However, setting Your browser to reject cookies may, in certain instances, prevent You from taking full advantage of the Website and its capabilities, or cause some features of the Website to function improperly or slower. 

 

We may also use third party mobile analytics in order to collect information about You and Your experience with the App that assists us with Your experience with the App and improve its performance. Some of the information that mobile analytics may record Your visit to the App, what You did there, and how the App responded to Your inquiries. You may also have the ability to set Your privacy setting on any mobile devices that You use to access the App, depending on the device that You use and its operating system. Whether and to what  extent adjusting Your setting will have the functionality of the App depends on the unique circumstances of Your mobile device and operating system. 

The Website and the App use various third-party services, such as by example only, Google Analytics. You can consult the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy for more information on how Google Analytics uses the data it collects. Google utilizes the data collected to track and examine the use of the Website, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services. Google may use the data collected on the Website to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects on the Website, please review “How Google uses data when You use our partners’ sites or apps”, (located here). If You would like additional information regarding the security and privacy practices of Google Analytics, please review the materials provided by Google here. Generally, speaking if You chose to opt-out of App analytics, You will need to do so on each mobile device that You use to access the App.

9. YOUR CHOICES ABOUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

 

a. Inquiries concerning the collection and deletion of Your personal information. 

 

We understand that You may have certain questions about R&G BRENNER ’s access and use of information that we have collected. Under some circumstances, You may be able to opt-out of our continued collection or use of Your personal information, and/or seek access to or deletion of personal information that we have collected about You in the past. However, there are circumstances when R&G BRENNER will not be able to comply with such requests. For example, We may deny a request if We determine, in good faith, that We should not comply because: to do so would violate or conflict with  R&G BRENNER ‘s legal obligations, including, but not limited to, the preservation and non-disclosure of financial, tax, health or other protected information as required by applicable U.S. or State laws; the information is the privileged, proprietary or  confidential information of R&G BRENNER  or someone other than the person making the request; the identity or authority of the person making the request cannot be confirmed; compliance with the request would compromise the privacy or legal rights of others; the burden or expense of responding would be disproportionate to the requesting individual’s privacy risk; the information is commercially necessary for Us to complete transactions or provide services that the User requested; or to do so would impede R&G BRENNER ’s detection, correction or prevention of any security incident, intentional or non-intentional interference with the Website or Services.

 

Additionally, even if You opt-out, we may still collect and use non-personal information regarding Your activities on our Website or App and/or information from the advertisement on third-party Websites for non-interest-based advertising purposes, such as to determine the effectiveness of the advertisements. 

 

If You have any questions or concerns about R&G BRENNER ’s collection or use of Your personal information, wish to opt-out of further collection of Your personal information or request deletion of personal information presently in R&G BRENNER ’s possession, please contact Us using one of the methods set forth below. Upon receiving Your request, we will endeavor to respond to the request in a commercially reasonable time.
