4.2. Information We May Collect Automatically

When you browse one of our Websites, we or our third-party service providers may collect information about your visit to our Websites, and your web browsing. That information may include your IP address, your operating system, your browser ID, your browsing activity, and other information about how you interacted with our Websites. We may collect this information as a part of log files as well as through the use of cookies or other tracking technologies. Our use of cookies and other tracking technologies is discussed further below in Section 4.3, which is our Cookie Statement. Please refer to Section 4.3 below titled Use of Personal Information to understand how we may use the Personal Information you voluntarily provide when you visit our Websites. We may use third parties to perform certain services on our behalf. We may share your Personal Information with these third parties, as necessary, solely to enable them to perform those specific services for us. Such third parties include those:

• assisting us with sending marketing emails and performing social networking tracking;
• providing cloud storage services;
• enabling payment processing;
• monitoring errors on web platforms;
• providing issue-tracking software;
• providing video streaming services;
• providing web analytics, performance tracking, and email automation software; and

Such third parties are prohibited from using your Personal Information except for these purposes, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information.

 

4.3. Cookies

Malarkey Roofing and its third-party partners use cookies or similar technologies to analyze trends, administer our Websites, track users’ movements around our Websites, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. This Cookie Statement explains how Malarkey Roofing uses cookies and similar technologies in the course of our business, including through our Websites. It explains what these technologies are and why we may use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

 

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by online service providers in order to (for example) make their websites or services work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner or service provider are called “first-party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies”. Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website or service you are using (such as advertising, interactive content and analytics). The third parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website or service in question and also when it visits certain other websites or services.

Malarkey Roofing may keep track of the Websites and pages you visit within the Malarkey Roofing Websites in order to determine what portion of the Website is the most popular or most used. This data is used to deliver customized content and promotions within the Malarkey Roofing Websites to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

We also may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to serve targeted advertisements. In addition, we partner with third parties to display advertising on our Websites or to manage and serve our advertising on other sites. Our third-party partners may use cookies or similar tracking technologies in order to provide you advertising or other content based upon your browsing activities and interests. Our third party advertising partners include LIST PARTNERS.

In some cases, we may use cookies and other tracking technologies described in this Cookie Statement to collect Personal Information, or to collect information that becomes Personal Information if we combine it with other information.

 

Other Tracking Technologies

We and our third-party partners may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons, pixels (or “clear gifs”) and other tracking technologies. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Websites or, in the case of web beacons, opened an email that we have sent them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our Websites to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our Websites from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to serve targeted advertisements to you and others like you, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of marketing campaigns. While you may not have the ability to specifically reject or disable these tracking technologies, in many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly; accordingly, in those instances, declining cookies will impair functioning of these technologies.

 

Targeted Online Advertising

We may engage one or more third-party service providers to track and analyze both individualized usage and volume statistical information from interactions with our Websites. We may also partner with one or more third parties (such as advertisers and ad networks) to display advertising on our Websites and/or to manage and serve advertising on other sites.

These third parties use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags and similar tracking technologies to collect and use certain information about your online activities, either on our Websites and/or other sites or mobile apps, to infer your interests and deliver you targeted advertisements that are more tailored to you based on your browsing activities and inferred interests (“Interest Based Advertising”).

Our third-party service providers may also use cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to our Websites and/or other sites to measure and track the effectiveness of advertisements and our online marketing activities (for example, by collecting data on how many times you click on one of our ads). The information collected by these third parties does not include Personal Information that enables you to be specifically identified (e.g. by reference to your name or email address).

 

How Can I Control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.

Browser Controls: You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Websites and. However, your access to some functionality and areas of our Websites may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser’s help menu for more information.

Disabling Most Interest Based Advertising: Most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of Interest Based Advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit https://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or https://www.youronlinechoices.com.

Mobile Advertising: You can opt out of having your mobile advertising identifiers used for certain types of Interest Based Advertising, including those performed by us, by accessing the settings in your Apple or Android mobile device and following the most recent published instructions. If you opt out, we will remove all data about you and no further data collection or tracking will occur. The random ID we (or our third-party partners) had previously assigned to you will also be removed. This means that if at a later stage, you decide to opt-in, we will not be able to continue and track you using the same ID as before, and you will for all practical purposes be a new user to our system.

Do Not Track: Some Internet browsers – like Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari – include the ability to transmit “Do Not Track” or “DNT” signals. Since uniform standards for “DNT” signals have not been adopted, our Websites do not currently process or respond to “DNT” signals. Malarkey Roofing takes privacy and meaningful choice seriously and will make efforts to continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.

 

How Often Will You Update This Cookie Statement?

We may update this Cookie Statement from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Statement regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

Some of the third parties who receive your Personal Information may be located in countries outside of the European Union or EEA.

If the GDPR applies to the processing of your Personal Information with us, the GDPR grants individuals to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you are not satisfied with how we process your Personal Information.
