Cookies
Like many websites, we and our third-party suppliers, use ‘cookies’ to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer’s hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We may link the information we store in cookies to the Personal Information you submit while on our Site.
We use session ID cookies for session management, to enable certain features of the Services, to better understand how you interact with the Services, and to monitor aggregate usage by Valimail Users and web traffic routing on the Services. We may also use persistent cookies to save your registration ID and login password for future logins to the Site.

If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all portions of the Site or all functionality of our Services.
Pixel Tags/Web Beacons
We also use ‘web beacons,’ ‘pixel tags,’ ‘clear GIFs’ or similar means (“Web Beacons”) on our Site. A Web Beacon is an electronic image, often a single pixel, embedded on web pages. Web Beacons are ordinarily not visible to users. Web Beacons allow us to count the number of users who have visited certain pages of the Site, to deliver branded services and to generate statistics about how our Site is used.

Interest-Based Advertising
Through our Site, Valimail may allow Third-Party advertising partners to set tracking tools (e.g., cookies) to collect anonymous, non-Personal Information regarding your activities (e.g., your IP address, page(s) visited, time of day). We may also share such de-identified information we have collected with Third-Party advertising partners. These advertising partners may use this information (and similar information collected from other websites) for purposes of delivering targeted advertisements to you when you visit non-Valimail related websites within their networks. These practices are commonly referred to as “interest-based advertising” or “online behavioral advertising.”
You can opt out of the collection and use of your information for interest-based advertising by going to http://optout.aboutads.info or http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/ to limit collection through the Site or by configuring the settings on your mobile device to limit ad tracking through the mobile applications.
Even if you opt-out, we may still collect and use non-Personal Information regarding your activities on our Sites and/or information from the advertisements on Third-Party websites for non-interest based advertising purposes, such as to determine the effectiveness of the advertisements.
