4. Information Sharing and Disclosure

The following describes some of the ways that your Personal Information may be disclosed in the normal scope of business to provide our services and products to customers:

• Affiliates. Your information may be shared with GG SwingTips Golf affiliates, and used to help us better tailor our services, products and advertising to you.

For example, service providers who offer services including research and analytics; hosting websites, fulfilling transactions, maintaining databases, administering contests, providing technology services and platforms, and processing payments.
• Social Networks. You may interact with certain features of our Online Services that cause information to be published to your social networks.  For example, you may click on a Facebook “like” button, which publishes to your Facebook account that you “like” one of our TV shows or movies.  On pages of our Online Services that contain social network functionality, the social network providing the functionality may be able to collect information about you, even if you don’t use that functionality. For example, if a page within our Online Services contains a Facebook “like” button, Facebook may be able to collect data about your visit to that page, even if you don’t click on the “like” button. To control this sharing of information, please review the privacy policy of the relevant social network and/or log out of it before you use our Online Services.

In Applications, your Personal Information and information about how you use our Applications may be shared with technology providers, carriers, analytics providers, and/or other mobile apps either operated by us or third parties.  See Section 5 below regarding our use of cookies and related technologies.
• Advertisers and Advertising Networks. Some Online Services, including Applications, may be supported with advertising, and collect data to help our Online Services serve ads. This helps keep the cost of Online Services low or free. We work with advertisers and third-party advertising networks and consumer data resellers that buy and/or sell information from and to other companies for multiple purposes including offering products and services that may interest you. These third parties may receive information about your browsing and website visiting habits and how you interact with content and advertising provided in our Online Services. In addition, these third parties may view, edit or set their own cookies and/or similar tracking technologies, which will allow them to collect information about you This sharing may continue until you take the actions set forth below in Section 5 to opt out. See Section 5 for additional information on how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies.
• Sharing of Video Viewing Behavior.  We may share information about the video content you view on our Online Services with video measurement services such as analytics providers and advertising companies, and third party social media sites. This sharing may continue until you take the actions set forth below in Section 5 to opt out. Information that may be passed to video measurement services such as analytics providers and advertising companies may be via cookies and/or similar tracking technologies.

We may sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information as described in this Privacy Policy to a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by us about our Online Services’ users is among the assets transferred.
• Third Party Products or Services. Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or services on our Online Services that direct you to a third party site. These third party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites.  If you wish to engage with these third party sites, you need to review their privacy policies. 

5. Cookies and Related Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Online Services and learn about how our users interact with and use the Online Services. These may include, but are not limited to, first and third party cookies as well as session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be accessed every time you use the Online Services.

Cookies are small text files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For example, we use first party/session cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart, and to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We use first and third party/persistent cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

The advertising networks and/or content providers that deliver ads on our Online Services, our analytics partner and other third parties may use cookies and/or similar tracking technologies to distinguish your web browser and keep track of information relating to your interaction with Online Services including ads shown. Some of these companies may combine information they collect from our Online Services with other information they have independently collected relating to your browser’s activities across other Online Services. These companies collect and use this information under their own privacy policies. We use cookies to keep track of advertisements, deliver content, including ads, relevant to your interests on our online service and third party sites and/or targeted or retargeted to you based on how you interact with our advertisements or content

We use Google AdSense Advertising on our Online Services. Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our Online Services. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our Online Services and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.

Google’s advertising requirements can be summed up by Google’s Advertising Principles. They are put in place to provide a positive experience for users and are located at the following location: https://support.google.com/adspolicy/topic/6021648?. We have implemented the following: remarketing with Google AdSense; Google Display Network Impression Reporting; Demographics and Interests Reporting; and DoubleClick Platform Integration.

We along with third-party vendors, such as Google, use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions, and other ad service functions as they relate to our Online Services.

Users can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Settings page. Alternatively, you can opt out by visiting the Network Advertising initiative opt out page or permanently using the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser add on. The effect of an opt-out will be to stop targeted advertising, but it will still allow the collection of usage data for certain purposes (e.g., research, analytics, and internal Online Services operation purposes).

You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You can do this through your browser (like Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser’s Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies.

If you disable cookies, some Online Services features will be disabled and some of our Online Services will not function properly. However, you can still place orders.

Users in the United States may opt out of many third-party ad networks. For example, you may go to the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Consumer Choice Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and your choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. You may also go to the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) Consumer Opt-Out Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and your choices regarding having information used by NAI members. To make choices about interest-based ads from third parties participating in the DAA, please visit the DAA consumer opt out page at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/.

Opting out from one or more companies listed on the DAA Consumer Choice Page or the NAI Consumer Opt-Out Page will opt you out from those companies’ delivery of interest-based content or ads to you, but it does not mean you will no longer receive any advertising through our Site or Products or on other products or applications. You may opt out of additional third party advertising networks by going to the Network Advertising Initiative’s Website at http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp and following the directions there.  You may continue to receive advertisements, for example, based on the particular products that you are viewing (i.e., contextually based ads). Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you opt out on the DAA or NAI products, your “opt out” may not be effective. Additional information is available on the DAA’s website at www.aboutads.info or the NAI’s website at www.networkadvertising.org.

The effect of opting out of third party advertising networks is explained on each opt out page. Information regarding your usage of the Online Services may still be collected for research, analytics or internal operations purposes. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of any such opt-out options.

Your use of our Online Services indicates your express consent to our use of cookies as explained in this Privacy Policy.

6. Manage your Security Settings

You may manage how your browser handles cookies and related technologies by adjusting its privacy and security settings. Browsers are different, so refer to instructions related to your browser to learn about cookie-related and other privacy and security settings that may be available. You can opt-out of being targeted by certain third-party advertising companies as set forth above in Section 5.

You may manage how your mobile browser handles cookies and related technologies by adjusting your mobile device privacy and security settings. Please refer to instructions provided by your mobile service provider or the manufacturer of your device to learn how to adjust your settings.

If you wish to opt out of receiving offers directly from Company service providers, you can follow the opt-out instructions in the emails that they send you. 

Some internet browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” features.  We respond to Do Not Track signals by not tracking browser and URL information collected through a tracking pixel.  However, for security purposes, we do not respond to Do Not Track signals for information collected via server logs, such as user IP address and firewall events.

7. Rights to Access and Control your Personal Information

Any personal data that we collect is based upon your consent as detailed in this Privacy Statement.  You have many choices concerning the collection, use, and sharing of your data, including the ability to:

• Delete Data. You may request that we delete your Personal Information. Please note that in some cases we cannot delete your Personal Information except by also deleting your user account.

• Change or Correct Data. You can also ask us to change, update, or fix your data in certain cases, particularly if it’s inaccurate.

• Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data. You may request that we do not use your Personal Information, but keep in mind that this will terminate our ability to provide certain of our Online Service(s) to you.

• Right to Access and/or Take Your Data. You can ask us for a copy of your Personal Information.

You may send us an email at [email protected] to request access to, obtain copies of, correct, or delete any Personal Information that you have provided to us. Your email message must include (i) your identifying information (including your IP address, if applicable), (ii) your contact information, and (iii) information about the specific changes, deletions, or other action(s) you are requesting. We require this information so we can determine which information in our control is your Personal Information and complete the actions you requested. We may not accommodate a request to delete or change information if we believe the deletion would violate any law or legal requirement.

8. Your California Privacy Rights

California Civil Code Section § 1798.83 permits users of our Online Services that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of Personal Information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to [email protected].

Notification of Privacy Policy Changes. We will update the date when anything has been changed in the privacy policy. You can find this update by going to our Privacy Policy page (https://www.ggswingtipsgolf.com/pages/privacy-policy).

Ability to Change Personal Information. You can change your personal information by: e-mailing us, calling us, logging into your account, or chatting with us.

Third Parties. Residents of the State of California may request a list of all third parties to which our Online Services have disclosed certain personal information (as defined by California law) during the preceding year for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes.  If you are a California resident and want such a list, please contact us at Chief Privacy Officer, GG SwingTips Golf, 3750 Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, Nevada US, 89158, US. For all requests, you must put the statement “Your California Privacy Rights” in the body of your request, as well as your name, street address, city, state, and zip code.  In the body of your request, please provide enough information for us to determine if this applies to you.  You need to attest to the fact that you are a California resident and provide a current California address for our response.  Please note that we will not accept requests via the telephone, email, or by facsimile, and we are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly, or that do not have complete information.

Do Not Track. California Business & Professions Code Section 22575(b) (as amended effective January 1, 2014) provides that California residents are entitled to know how GG SwingTips Golf responds to “Do Not Track” browser settings. GG SwingTips Golf does not currently take actions to respond to Do Not Track signals because a uniform technological standard has not yet been developed. However, we honor do not track signals as we are technologically able to do and use commercially reasonable efforts not to track, plant cookies or use advertising when a do not track (“DNT”) browser mechanism is in place.

9. Security

Our Online Services are scanned for known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our Online Services as safe as possible. However, we make no guarantees as to the security of the Online Services. No transmission of data is guaranteed to be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties to intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully. Therefore, any transmission of Personal Information to us is made at your own risk.

We use malware scanning. Your Personal Information is contained within secured networks and is only accessible to those required to keep the information confidential. In addition, sensitive/credit information you supply may be encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

We implement a variety of security measures when a user places an order enters, submits, or accesses their information to maintain the safety of your Personal Information. All transactions are processed through a gateway provider and are not stored or processed on our servers.

10. Changes in this Privacy Statement

From time to time, we may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect industry initiatives, changes in the law or technology, or changes in our practices regarding information collection and use.  You agree that we may notify you about material changes in the way we treat Personal Information by placing a notice on our Online Services. You should check our Online Services frequently for updates.

You can determine when this Privacy Policy was last revised by referring to the “Last Updated” or similar legend at the top of this page. Any changes to this Privacy Policy will become effective upon posting of the revised Privacy Policy on the Internet, accessible through this site. By continuing to use the Online Services following such changes, you will be deemed to have agreed to such changes.

11. Children Under the Age of 13

We do not specifically market to or target children under 13. We do not knowingly collect or store any Personal Information from children under the age of 13. When it comes to the collection of Personal Information from children under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and Online Services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online.

If you are under 13, do not use or provide any information on the Online Services or on or through any of its features/register on the Online Services, make any purchases through the Online Services, use any of the interactive or public comment features of the Online Services or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn we have collected or received Personal Information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at [email protected].

12. Users Outside the United States

GG SwingTips Golf is based in the United States and may from time to time transfer your Personal Information to other countries and make it accessible to any of our affiliates and third party service providers internationally.
