Use of Tracking Technologies and Opting Out

• SOUL SPIRITS INC. COOKIES
  Our Site may pass a "cookie" (a string of information that is sent by a website to be stored on your system's hard drive, and/or temporarily in your computer's memory blocks). The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a particular page. The Site may use cookies in online catalogs to keep track of your status and contents of your shopping cart or to retain information gathered in cookies to allow you access to password-protected areas of the Site.

• THIRD PARTY AND MARKETING PARTNERS COOKIES
  We also work with third party analytics or marketing partner companies that collect information about visitors to our Site and report website trends without directly identifying individual visitors. These services allow us to view a variety of reports about how visitors interact with the Site, so we can improve our Site and understand how people find and navigate it. We may enable third parties to collect usage analytics about our services. These third parties may place their own cookies on your device to collect traffic and activity data in order to deliver us relevant metrics and information. We may share such information about our users with them to help improve our services. The collection of this data by these third parties is subject to the third parties’ own privacy policies. With the exception of the use of such technologies by our service providers or other authorized third parties, we do not permit any other third-party content on sites to include or utilize any cookies, web beacons, local storage, or similar technologies for tracking purposes or to collect your Personal Information.

• OPTING OUT OF COOKIES
  You may set your browser to decline cookies. If you do so, however, you may not be able to fully experience some interactive features of the Site. If you want to stop or restrict the placement of cookies or flush any cookies that may already be on your computer or device, please refer to and adjust your web browser preferences. Further information on cookies is available at www.allaboutcookies.org. By deleting our cookies or disabling future cookies you may not be able to access certain areas or features of our Site or some of its functionality may be affected. Cookies and similar items are not used by us to automatically retrieve Personal Information that directly identifies you from your device without your knowledge.

• TRACKING TAGS AND PIXELS
  In addition to cookies, we implement third party tracking tags and pixels to collect information regarding the interaction with a web page or email. A tracking tag is a snippet of code created by Soul Spirits Inc. or provided by a third party. A tracking pixel is a transparent graphic image (usually 1 pixel x 1 pixel) that is placed on a web page or email and, in combination with a cookie, allows for the collection of information regarding the use of the web page or viewing of the email that contains the tracking pixel. We use tracking tags and pixels to know when an advertisement has been clicked on or otherwise interacted with, and use that information to determine which advertisements are more appealing to our users. In some cases, we use third party service providers to help us collect and analyze this information. We may, however, link this automatically collected information to other information we collect about you, including Personal Information that directly identifies you.

• CLICKSTREAM DATA
  As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each website you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as “clickstream data,” can be collected and stored by a website’s server. Clickstream data can tell us the type of device and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to the Site. We may collect and use clickstream data to determine how much time visitors spend on websites, how visitors navigate throughout websites and how we may tailor our Service to better meet consumer needs. This information will be used to improve our Site. Any collection or use of clickstream data will not intentionally contain any Personal Information that directly identifies you

• INTEREST BASED ADVERTISING AND OPTING OUT OF SUCH ADVERTISING
  The Site may also use Soul Spirits Inc. or third party cookies to provide you with relevant online display advertising tailored to your interests. Note that the online advertising industry also provides a service through which you may opt-out of receiving targeted ads from certain data partners and other advertising partners that participate in self-regulatory programs. You can opt-out of targeted advertising from certain providers at aboutads.info/consumers. Please note that by opting out, you will continue to see generic advertising that is not tailored to your specific interests and activities. To be clear, cookie-based opt-outs must be performed on each device and browser that you wish to have opted-out. For example, if you have opted out on your laptop browser, that opt-out will not be effective on your mobile device. You can also generally opt-out of receiving personalized ads from third party advertisers and ad networks who are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) on the NAI website.

• DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS
  Some internet browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” setting. When you choose to turn on such setting in your browser, it will send a special signal to website you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. There is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret such signals, so our Site is not currently designed to respond to such signals.
