Our Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Mechanisms

Our Platform (and authorized third parties) uses cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information about you, your device, and how you interact with our Platform. This section contains additional information about the types of tracking technologies we use and the purposes for which we use them, the types of information we collect using these technologies, how we disclose or make information available to others, and choices you may have regarding these technologies.

Types Of Cookies And Tracking Technologies We Use

Our Platform and the third parties that we authorize may use the following tracking technologies:

• Cookies, which are a type of technology that installs a small amount of information on a user's computer or other device when they visit a website. Some cookies exist only during a single session and some are persistent over multiple sessions over time.
• Pixels, web beacons, and tags, which are types of code or transparent graphics that contain a unique identifier. In addition to the uses described in Section 4.b. below, these technologies provide analytical information about the user experience and help us customize our marketing activities. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, pixels, web beacons, and tags are embedded invisibly on web pages.
• Session replay tools, which record your interactions with our Platform, such as how you move throughout our Platform and engage with our webforms. In addition to the uses described in Section 4b below, this information helps us improve our Platform and identify and fix technical issues visitors may be having with our Platform.
• Embedded scripts and SDKs, which allow us to build and integrate custom apps and experiences, some of which may be developed by a third party.

Purposes for Using These Technologies

We and authorized third parties use these technologies for purposes including:

• Personalization, such as remembering user preferences, login details and browsing behavior; tracking your activity across online properties and Platform over time to better understand your preferences and interests; and personalizing your online content;
• Improving performance, such as maintaining and improving the performance of our Platform;
• Analytics, such as analyzing how our Platform is used. For example, we use Google Analytics to help us improve our Platform, performance and user experiences. Google Analytics may use cookies and other tracking technologies to perform their services. To learn how Google Analytics collects and processes data, please visit: “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps” located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners; and
• Advertising, such as providing you with offers that may be of interest to you; conducting targeted advertising to you on our Platform and those of third parties; and measuring the effectiveness of our communications with you and advertising campaigns, including identifying how and when you engage with our communications.

Personal Information Collected

These Tracking Technologies collect data about you and your device, such as your IP address, cookie ID, device ID, AdID, operating system, browser used, browser history, search history, and information about how you interact with our Platform (such as pages on our Platform that you have viewed, including your specific mouse movements, page clicks, and other session replay information).

Disclosures of Personal Information

We may disclose information, including Personal Information to third parties or allow third parties to directly collect information using these technologies on our Platform such as social media companies, advertising networks, companies that facilitate session replay recordings and analysis, companies that provide analytics including ad tracking and reporting, security providers, and others that help us operate our business and Platform.

Your Choices

Some of the third parties we work with participate with the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") and Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). The DAA and NAI provide mechanisms for you to opt out of interest-based advertising performed by participating members here and here. You can also refuse or delete cookies using your browser settings. If you refuse or delete cookies, some of our Platform’ functionality may be impaired. Please refer to your browser’s Help instructions to learn more about how to manage cookies and the use of other tracking technologies. If you change computers, devices, or browsers; use multiple computers, devices, or browsers; or delete your cookies, you may need to repeat this process for each computer, device, or browser. Opting out of interest-based advertising will not opt you out of all advertising, but rather only interest-based advertising from us or our agents or representatives. Some browsers have incorporated Do Not Track (“DNT”) preferences. We do not currently honor such signals.

Third-Party Links

Our Platform may contain links to third-party websites. Any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Notice, but instead is governed by the privacy policies of those third party websites. We are not responsible for the information practices of such third party websites.

Security of My Personal Information

Blueprint Income takes our role in securing your personal information seriously. We employ industry-standard information security practices and we use trusted service providers.

Your personal information is encrypted while stored in our databases. Our backups and development environments are encrypted at rest and only our trained, internal staff will interact with sensitive or personal data and communications with external services are also made over encrypted connections.

We have implemented precautions to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware that despite our best efforts, no data security measures can guarantee security.

You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your password, phone, and computer by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, choosing a robust password that nobody else knows or can easily guess, and keeping your log-in and password private. We are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or compromised passwords or for any activity on your account via unauthorized password activity. We will never ask you for your password via email, phone, text or chat.

Please do not ever share your password with anyone.

What Choices Do I Have Regarding Promotional Emails?

We may send periodic promotional emails to you. You may opt-out of such promotional communications by following the opt-out instructions contained in the email. Please note that it may take up to 10 business days for us to process opt-out requests. If you opt-out of receiving emails about recommendations or other promotional information we think may interest you, we may still send you emails about your account or any Services you have requested or received from us.

Children Under 13

The Platforms are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect, use or disclose personally identifiable information from anyone under 13 years of age. If we determine upon collection that a user is under this age, we will not use or maintain his/her Personal Information without the parent/guardian’s consent. If we become aware that we have unknowingly collected personally identifiable information from a child under the age of 13, we will make reasonable efforts to delete such information from our records.
