Profile Information

As you navigate the Website, your computer relays information to us that we use to optimise the Website, improve user experience, and make strategic business decisions about our products and services. 

We use session analytics, which means that while you are on our Website we are using software to tell us what pages you click on, how long you stay there, and how you generally navigate the Website. This information tells us how we can improve user experience, how successful our advertisements have been, and how to make our content more accessible. 

Analytics, including the session analytics we use, may collect information about your computer specifications, internet connection, and IP address. Your IP address is a unique identifier that tells other computers the path to take to communicate with your device. That kind of data can communicate private information about you. For example, connecting to the internet via a coffee shop’s wifi tells the analytics tool that you are at the coffee shop at the time you access the Website. Smart devices like your smartphone can tell when another smart device is nearby. If a nearby device has given permission to advertisers to access its location, then those advertisers can deduce that you are also near that location.

We don't collect your location information, but accessing our Website while near other devices might allow advertisers to deduce your location, and they could send you targeted ads. Also, your computer’s specifications could communicate what kind of device you prefer to use, or what you prioritize in your devices.
