Non-identifiable and anonymous information (“Non-personal Information”):

We are not aware of the identity of the User and/or Website End-User from whom we have collected the Non-personal Information. Non-Personal Information is any unconcealed information which does not enable identification of an individual User and/or Website End-User, and which is available to us while a User is entering into and/or using the Site and/or Services and/or while your Website End-Users use the Widget via our website. Non-personal Information which is being gathered consists of technical information, behavioral information and aggregated information, and may contain, among other things, the activity of the User on the Site and/or Services, the activity of your Website End-User on our website, type of operating system, User’s ‘click-stream’ or searches on the Site and/or Services and Website End-User’s ‘click stream’ or searches on our website, type and version of browser, keyboard language, screen resolution, etc.

Please note that we do not gather IP addresses of your Website End-Users or their contact information from your website.

Our representative may collect additional Personal Information from you.

 

For avoidance of doubt, any Non-Personal Information connected or linked to any Personal Information shall be deemed as Personal Information as long as such connection or linkage exists. We do not collect any Personal Information from you or related to you, inter alia, through your active acceptance to the TOS and the Privacy Policy.
