Information Collected by Our Servers. To make our Sites and Klue Services more useful to you, our servers (which may be hosted by a third party service provider) collect information from you, including your browser type, operating system, Internet Protocol ("IP") address (a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet, which may vary from session to session), domain name, and/or a date/time stamp for your visit.
Log Files. As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type, Internet service provider ("ISP"), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We may combine this automatically collected log information with other information we collect about you. We do this to improve the services we offer to you, improve marketing and site functionality.
We use this information to analyze trends, administer the Sites, track users' movements around the Sites, gather demographic information about our user base as a whole, and better tailor our Klue Services to our users' needs. For example, some of the information may be collected so that when you visit the Sites or the Klue Services again, it will recognize you and the information could then be used to serve advertisements and other information appropriate to your interests.
Mobile Services. We may also collect non-personal information from your mobile device if you have downloaded our App. This information is generally used to help us deliver the most relevant information to you. Examples of information that may be collected and used include your geographic location, how you use the App, and information about the type of device you use. In addition, in the event our App crash on your mobile device, we will receive information about your mobile device model software version and device carrier, which allows us to identify and fix bugs and otherwise improve the performance of our App. This information is sent to us as aggregated information and is not traceable to any individual and cannot be used to identify an individual. We send you push notifications from time-to-time in order to update you about any events or promotions that we may be running. If you no longer wish to receive these types of communications, you may turn them off at the device level. Please be aware that disabling Notifications may restrict your access to certain Services and/or impact the Services provided to you. To ensure you receive proper notifications, we will need to collect certain information about your device such as operating system and user identification information.
