What Information Do We Collect?

How Is This Used?

COOKIES

PWA uses cookies to store and track your preferences to provide you with a more personalized user experience. A cookie is a message that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Most Internet sites use cookies. Cookies make your experience easier by saving your preferences and passwords.

We also use cookies that contain no personal information at all. These cookies, help us estimate our audience size, determine which areas of this website are the most popular, and serve targeted advertising.

3RD PARTY COOKIES

Embedded content from other providers may track your interaction with our content. For example, if we embed a video from YouTube, Google will track your interaction. Similarly, a click on a social share button will result in a third party tracking that activity – such as LinkedIn, Twitter, etc. Unfortunately, there is no way around this if you wish to share content socially, or interact with content we have embedded form a 3rd-party.

BLOCKING COOKIES

You can set your browser preferences to reject all cookies, but then you may not be able to participate in most customized services, and you may be required to repeatedly log-in to participate in various services, promotions, or product offerings.

‘How To Geek’ has a good description on how to block cookies in a variety of browsers.

IP ADDRESS

PWA may also collect IP addresses for systems administration or to report information in aggregate form to our advertisers (e.g. how many visitors logged in to this website). An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer automatically when you use the Internet. When you visit a particular web page on the website, our servers log your IP address. Your IP address is not linked to anything personally identifiable.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS

We use Google Analytics on this website to track visitor traffic. We have added IP Anonymization to our Google Analytics setup via Google Tag Manager. This setting anonymizes the IP address by removing the last octet of the IP address (your IP becomes 123.123.123.0 — where the last portion/octet is replaced with a ‘0’). This anonymization will happen before storage and processing begin. While we do not work directly with businesses in the EU or Switzerland, we have done this to address GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) for visitors to our website from the EU and Switzerland.

Email Subscriptions, Surveys, Etc.

This privacy policy also includes our newsletter subscribers, those who answer our surveys, and those who fill out our questionnaires:

• We will never sell or rent our mailing lists to third parties for email marketing or any other purpose. However, we may advertise in our email publications;
• We respect the purpose for which our site visitors gave us information;
• We send our periodicals only to those who request them. Sometimes people subscribe for their friends, and while we cannot prevent that, we offer information to these subscribers how to easily unsubscribe if requested (see below);
• We keep our subscription lists as clean as possible to prevent obsolete emails from taking unnecessary bandwidth.
