Wireless networks operated by AANR in retail stores
Social networking sites
Business partners, contractors, and other third parties
For your convenience, we have provided a summary description of each of these circumstances below.

Web server logs

When you visit an AANR Website, our web servers may automatically log information that your browser sends us. For example, we may receive and collect: the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet; the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using; the date and time you access the AANR Website; and the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to the AANR Website. We may also collect information regarding search queries run on the AANR Website. We use this information to monitor the usage of the AANR Websites and as necessary for our business.

Cookies

Like many online retailers, we and/or our third-party providers use cookies to recognize you as you use or return to the AANR Websites. This is done so that we can personalize and enhance your browsing and shopping experience. “Cookies” are small files that are placed in your browser to collect information about your activities on an AANR Website. Cookies help us to (1) speed navigation, keep track of items in your shopping bag, and provide you with content that is tailored to you; (2) remember information you gave us so that you do not have to re-enter it; (3) determine the effectiveness of some of our and our third-party partners’ marketing efforts and communications; and (4) monitor the total number of visitors, pages viewed, and the total number of ads displayed.

Browsers are typically set to create cookies automatically. You can choose to have your browser notify you when cookies are being written to your computer or accessed, or you can disable cookies entirely. If you disable cookies, however, you will not be able to place items in an AANR Website shopping bag, and therefore you will not be able to place an order with us online. Also, by not using cookies, some AANR Website features and services may not function properly.

Pixel tags or clear GIFs

We may use sensing technologies that use pixel tags or clear GIFs (which are also called web beacons). These technologies allow us to determine the effectiveness of our e-mail and advertising and marketing efforts. For this purpose, we tie the pixel tags and clear GIFs to personally identifiable information. We may also collect information regarding the links within such marketing materials that you click on and purchase statistics regarding items you buy following receipt of such marketing.

Third-party web analytics services

We work with third-party service providers, including but not limited to Adobe Analytics and Google Analytics, to help us better understand how you use the AANR Websites. These third-party service providers will place cookies in your browser to collect information such as how you were referred to the AANR Website, how you navigate around the AANR Website, what you purchase, and what traffic is driven by various marketing methods. This information will help us to better serve you and provide you with more personalized information and product offerings. We do not allow third-party service providers to collect your credit card information, e-mail address, or password information. These third-party service providers may only use your personal information to perform services for us and may not share your personal information with anyone else, or use it for any other purpose, except on an aggregated, non-personally identifiable basis.

To learn more about the privacy practices of Adobe, you may review its privacy policy located at www.adobe.com/privacy.html. To exercise your choice with respect to their collection of information on AANR Websites, please visit www.adobe.com/privacy/opt-out.html.

To disable the Google Analytics cookie and other third-party web analytics service provider cookies, you can choose to have your browser notify you when cookies are being written to your computer or accessed, or you can disable cookies entirely.

Targeted advertising

We may partner with third party advertising networks that collect IP addresses, unique device identifiers (UDIDs), browser type, operating system, time zone, country, referring pages, and other information through the use of cookies, web server logs and pixel tags on AANR Websites, Apps, emails and on third party websites and emails. They use this information to provide you with advertisements that are customized to your particular preferences, including for companies that are not affiliated with us. You may see these advertisements on AANR Websites and third-party apps and websites, and across different devices you use. We may use this process to help us manage and improve the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. If you would like to learn more about the third-party advertisers that may be aware of the fact that you visit AANR Websites or use our Apps, and to understand your opt-out choices, please visit the website of the National Advertising Initiative at www.networkadvertising.org/choices. Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads.

Please understand that AANR does not control these third-party cookies, and you should check the privacy policies of third party advertising networks to see whether and how it uses cookies.

Your Device or Apps you use, including geolocation

When you use a Device or our Apps, we automatically collect information through the Device or App when it is connected to the Internet. For example, we may receive and collect information concerning device registration, operating system, settings, usage, firmware version, signal strength, search queries, network interaction, the name of the network from which you access the Internet, the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the device you are using, unique device identifiers (UDIDs), downloads, sideloaded content, configuration, or service information relating to any malfunction of the Device or App. This may include information regarding your activity on such Devices or Apps, such as books or videos opened, date and time of use, time elapsed, page turns, bookmarks, annotations or customer reviews.

In addition, to provide location-based services on Devices or through Apps, AANR and third-party application providers may automatically collect real-time geographic location information or other location-based information about you and your Device or another mobile device on which the App is installed. This information may be used to provide certain device or application functionality or to offer, provide and improve products and services.

Social networking sites
