Automated and Third Party Data Collection

AUTOMATED INFORMATION COLLECTION

Like most companies, we (and our service providers and certain third parties) collect information about you automatically, including when you interact with SNC Services. We collect this information through a variety of technologies, which we explain below:

• Cookies – A cookie is a small text file that is sent to your browser when you access a website. There are two types of cookies, session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie is available and exists only during the course of the browser session. Closing the browser or logging off will invalidate the session cookie. Persistent cookies, similar to their name, last for a longer period of time, from hours, days, or weeks, and remain on your hard drive (or other storage medium) and record or disclose information about you and your interactions with websites and services. For example, cookies are used to retrieve information that you have previously entered (to allow you not to have to re-enter it), analyze the usage of a website, or track users across websites or services. You can often decide whether and what types of cookies you are willing to accept through your browser’s settings or through third party products that may manage, disclose, or block cookies, like browser plugin-ins or other software.
• Web beacons (also known as pixels, internet tags, or clear gifs) – These are tiny graphics on a web page (or in an email) that are used to track pages, viewed, messages opened, or other information. They can provide certain information, including IP address and browser type, or other information about interactions with a website or service.
• Embedded Scripts – These are also bits of code on a website or service that measure how a user interacts with a website, application, or service; the scripts are often in JavaScript, a common programming language.

SNC also collects information automatically about you through logging that is standard on websites. Typically, website logs include your IP address, device type, browser type, access time, and the URL where you came from or where you are going.

THIRD PARTY DATA COLLECTION AND OPT-OUTS

Certain service providers and third parties collect information about you when you are interacting with the SNC Services, including through the automated methods described above. Because we value your privacy, we want to be transparent about this data collection, provide you further information, and in some cases provide you methods to opt-out of or control this data collection.

Google Analytics. Like many websites, we use Google Analytics to gather statistics from our Websites and Online Services. Google Analytics uses a browser cookie for statistical analysis related to your browsing behavior on our Websites and Online Services. If you choose, you can opt out by turning off cookies in the preferences settings in your browser or download and install Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. For more information on Google Analytics, please visit http://www.google.com/analytics.

Social Media and Ads. SNC’s Websites and Online Services also include functionality, cookies and other automated data collection from certain social media platforms. The cookies and other data collection by such social media platforms allow us to place ads on certain social media websites, measure your engagement with those ads, tailor ads to you, measure your ad conversion, and provide us information about your interactions with us on social media.

OTHER METHODS TO OPT-OUT

To learn more about or opt out of third-party data collection on the Internet, generally, SNC recommends you visit the following websites.

Digital Adverting Alliance Consumer Choice Tool. Visit https://optout.aboutads.info/ to opt-out of ads from companies that participate in the DAA.

Network Advertising Initiative. Visit http://optout.networadvertising.org/ to opt-out of certain interest-based advertising from participating NAI members.

Please note that when you opt-out at the websites above, and in general, the opt-out is effective only for the device that you use to opt-out. It will not prevent data collection or targeted ads for other devices that you use – you will need to opt-out on each device. Additionally, certain opt-outs require that a cookie be placed on your device to record your preference.

At this time, we do not support “Do Not Track” preferences that may be available in your browser.

NO SELLING

Certain privacy laws, including those in Nevada and California, require that we disclose whether we sell your personal information to any third parties. These laws may differ in the definition of what constitutes “selling” personal information. Nevertheless, SNC is happy to disclose that:

• SNC does not sell your personal information to any third party for monetary consideration.

Your rights and choices

• Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These rights may include the right to access personal information that SNC has about you, the right to request that SNC delete personal information about you, and the right to correct any errors in any personal information SNC maintains about you.
• If you do not wish to receive further non-transactional, marketing emails from us, you may opt-out by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in any such emails or contacting us using the methods described below.
• You may correct or update information that we collect about you by contacting us.
• If you make a request as described above (except with respect to e-mail opt-outs), we will verify your identity before honoring any such request, which may involve asking you to provide or confirm certain information about yourself. We engage in verification where required by law, or where we believe it is necessary to protect your privacy and prevent fraud or impersonation. In certain circumstances, you may also be able to make a request through your agent; any such request may also involve a verification process.
• You can opt-out of or control certain data collection through the SNC Services, including automated data collection, as described above in the section titled “Automated and Third Party Data Collection.” You can also control what data is collected about you by limiting the information that you provide to SNC, taking advantage of settings within your web browser or device that relate to privacy, or using software or other services or websites that help to protect your privacy or inform you about data collection practices.

Important information

• The Services are offered and available to users who are 18 years of age or older. The Services are not directed to children under 13. If you learn that your minor child has provided us with personal data without your consent, contact us.

•  The privacy, safety and security of your information also depends on you. You are responsible for keeping your information confidential and secure, and we encourage you to always use good cybersecurity and privacy hygiene.
• To help protect the privacy of data we collect through the Services, we employ measures designed to protect your personal information. However, you should keep in mind that the Services are run on software, hardware and networks, any component of which may, from time to time, require maintenance or experience problems, or be attacked by third parties.

To provide the SNC Services, we or our service providers may process personal information in the United States, or in other locales across the globe. If you are not a resident of the U.S., you hereby consent and agree that we (and our service providers) may collect, process, use, transfer, and store your information, as discussed in this policy, outside your resident jurisdiction. Please be aware that United States law and the laws of other countries where we may store and process your information may offer different levels of protection for information than may be available in your country, and some of these locales may have been deemed to offer inadequate protection under certain laws.
