As part of these activities, we may create aggregated, de-identified, or other anonymized data from personal information we collect. We make personal information into anonymous data by removing information that makes the data personally identifiable to you. We may use this anonymous data and share it with third parties for our lawful business purposes.

Direct Marketing. We may send you direct marketing communications as permitted by law. You may opt-out of our marketing communications as described in the “Your Choices” section below.

Interest-Based Advertising. We work with third-party advertising companies and social media companies to help us advertise our business and to display ads for our products and services and other products or services that may be of interest to you on the Platform and other locations. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about you (including the online activity information and device information described above in the section called “Personal Information Collected Automatically”) over time and across our Platform and other sites and services or your interaction with our emails, and that information may be used to serve ads that such companies think will be of interest to you. In addition, some of these companies may use hashed customer lists that we share with them to deliver ads to you and to similar users on their platforms. You can learn more about your choices for limiting interest-based advertising in the “Your Choices” section below.

To Comply with Laws and Regulations. We will use your personal information as we believe necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable laws, lawful requests, and legal process, such as to respond to subpoenas or requests from government authorities.

For Compliance, Fraud Prevention, and Safety. We may use your personal information and disclose it to law enforcement, government authorities, and private parties as we believe necessary or appropriate to: (a) maintain the safety, security, and integrity of our Platform, products and services, business, databases and other technology assets; (b) protect our, your or others’ rights, privacy, safety or property (including by making and defending legal claims); (c) audit our internal processes for compliance with legal and contractual requirements and internal policies; (d) enforce the terms and conditions that govern the Platform; and (e) prevent, identify, investigate and deter fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal activity, including cyberattacks and identity theft.

Fluxon is headquartered in the United States, and we may work with service providers in the United States and other countries. Your personal information may be collected, used, and stored in these countries or other locations outside of your home country. Privacy laws in the locations where we handle your personal information may not be as protective as the privacy laws in your home country.

Users located in Europe can view more information about cross-border transfers in the section below titled “Notice to European Users.”

Security

No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is fully secure. While we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information from the risks presented by unauthorized access or acquisition, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password or username for access to certain parts of our Platform, you are responsible for keeping such information confidential. We ask you not to share your password or username with anyone and to select unique and secure passwords when setting up accounts in our Platform.

In this section, we describe the rights and choices available to our customers.

Please note that opting out of receiving text messages may impact your use of the Platform.

Third-Party Platforms. If you choose to connect the Platform with a third-party platform, you may have the ability to limit the information that we obtain from the third party at the time you create your account. You may also be able to control our access to your personal information through your account settings with the third-party platform. Please note, if you withdraw our ability to access certain information from a third-party platform, that choice will not apply to information that we have already received from that third party.

Cookies. Most browsers let you remove and/or stop accepting cookies from the websites you visit. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser’s settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all functionality of the Platform and our Site may not work properly. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your browser and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org. You may also view our Cookie Policy.

We use services like Google Analytics to help us understand user activity and patterns on the Site. You can learn more about Google Analytics cookies by clicking here and about how Google protects your data by clicking here. You can prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of our Site by downloading and installing a browser plugin available here.

Advertising Choices. You can limit the use of your information for interest-based advertising by blocking third-party cookies in your browser settings, using browser plug-ins/extensions, and/or using your mobile device settings to limit the use of the advertising ID associated with your mobile device. You can also opt out of interest-based ads from companies participating in the following industry opt-out programs by visiting the linked websites: the Network Advertising Initiative (https://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp), the Digital Advertising Alliance (https://optout.aboutads.info), and the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (https://www.youronlinechoices.eu/). Some of the companies we work with may offer their own opt-out mechanisms, such as Facebook and Google.

You can learn more about Facebook’s privacy practices and manage your Facebook ad preferences by clicking here.

Many of the opt-out preferences described in this section must be set on each device and/or browser for which you want them to apply. Please note that some of the advertising companies we work with may not participate in the opt-out mechanisms described above, so even after opting-out, you may still receive interest-based ads from other companies. If you opt-out of interest-based advertisements, you will still see advertisements online but they may be less relevant to you.

Do Not Track. Some browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” or similar signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit https://www.allaboutdnt.com.

Declining to Provide Information. We need to collect personal information to provide certain services. If you do not provide the information requested, we may not be able to provide those services.
