In the following Privacy Policy, we outline our online data collection practices for Ad Venture and Company OÜ Trading as Ads and Ventures (“Ads and Ventures”, “We”, “us”, or “our”). Specifically, it describes the types of information we gather about you while you use our website, www.adsandventures.com (the “Site”), and how we use such information. The Privacy Policy, including the children’s privacy statement, does not apply to any information you may provide to us or which we may collect offline and/or through other means (for example, during a live event, by telephone, or by mail).

Please carefully read this Privacy Policy. As a result of visiting and using this site, you agree that this Privacy Statement applies to your use of this site and any disputes relating to privacy. We may need to update our Privacy Policy as the Web is an evolving medium in the future. Therefore, whenever this Privacy Policy is changed, we will update the Effective Date to reflect the date of the change. You accept those changes by continuing to access the site after we have posted any changes to the Privacy Policy.

Taking your privacy seriously is our top priority. Ads and Ventures and its affiliates treat all personal information as strictly confidential. Therefore, we will not sell, barter, or otherwise transfer your personal information to a third party without your express consent. This section explains what information Ads and Ventures collects, why it is collected, and how it may be used.

The use of your information. Generally, the information collected is used for the purposes for which it was provided and may be used further for statutory or other legitimate purposes. In the event that you use our service contact form on our website, for example, we will use the information you provided in that form place to respond to your service request. Further, we may use that information to improve the quality of our customer service.

Processing of your personal information must be lawful – we apply the following legal grounds for processing:

This will be in accordance with our data retention policies and any applicable privacy laws. When we no longer need your personal information, we will take all reasonable steps to remove it from our systems and records or take steps to properly anonymise it so that you can no longer be identified from it.

What information we collect and how we use it. As part of your use of the site, we may collect and store certain personal or other information that you voluntarily provide to us (e.g., while on the site and when responding via e-mail to a feature provided on the site). Adsandventures.com contacts individuals only if they specifically request it or if they have subscribed to our mailing list, attended one of our events, or purchased one of our products. During registration and purchase, adsandventures.com collects personally identifying information from our users. Generally, this information includes name and e-mail address for registration and opt-in, names, postal addresses, and credit card information for registering for our events or purchasing our products. This information has been provided to us by you.

As you navigate through the site, we collect and store information that is generated automatically. We may collect information about your computer’s Internet connection, for example, so we can improve the delivery of our web pages to you and measure traffic on the site. We may also use a feature known as a “cookie.” A cookie is a small file that your web browser places on your computer. The cookies enable us to deliver advertisements, identify how many unique users visit us, track user trends and patterns by showing how and when visitors use the site.

We may use the information we collect from you while you are using the site in a variety of ways, including customising its features, displaying advertising on the site, and making other offers available to you, including by direct e-mail or otherwise. In addition, we may provide your information to third parties, such as service providers, contractors and third-party publishers and advertisers. We reserve the right, except in cases where you have informed us in accordance with the procedure described below, to use and disclose to third parties all of the information we collect from and about you while you are using the site in any manner and for any purpose, including to inform you about our products and services or to provide you information about them. For those who do not want their information used for these purposes, please send a letter to the Online Privacy Coordinator, whose address can be found at the end of this Privacy Policy, asking that it not be included in any lists of information that may be used for these purposes, or that may be given or sold to third parties.

Whenever you permit third parties to view your personal information online – for example, on message boards, blogs, through e-mail, and in chat areas – you should be aware your personal information may be collected and used by them. In no case will we be responsible for any unauthorised use of such information.

Some of our third-party advertisers and ad servers that present advertising on the site may also use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies. Third-party advertisers and ad servers may use the information they collect to present their advertisements, measure and research their effectiveness, or for other purposes. Our privacy policies do not apply to the use and collection of your information by these third-party advertisers and ad servers. We cannot be held responsible for the privacy policies of these third-party advertisers and ad servers. Should you have any concerns regarding a third party’s use of cookies or web beacons or its use of your information, you should visit that party’s website and review its privacy policy.

Our site also contains links to other websites and provides access to third-party products and services, whose privacy policies we are unable to control. Any information you provide on another website or when you purchase third-party products or services through the site is subject to the privacy policies of the site you are visiting or the company that provides the products or services.

Some content, products and services may also be offered through the site or through e-mail messages to you through cooperative relationships with third-party providers, in which case the brands of these third-party providers appear on the site in connection with such content, products, and/or services. Whenever you visit any of our provider partner’s web pages, any information you provide or collect may be shared with our provider partner. In some cases, the provider partner may collect information directly from you, in which case the provider partner’s privacy policy may apply. Provider partners may have a different policy than we do. To get more information about the privacy policies of our provider partners, please contact them directly.

Please be aware that we may occasionally release information about our visitors when releasing such information is appropriate to comply with law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of users of the site or the public.

In addition, we may buy or sell a variety of assets as our business grows. For example, we may transfer information about our users if we sell some or all of our assets or if one or more of our websites are acquired by another company.

Google Analytics. We also use AdWords features in Google Analytics as part of our business optimisation. These features include:

• Remarketing with Google Analytics
• Google Display Network Impression Reporting
• DoubleClick Platform integrations
• Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting

By enabling these Google Analytics Display features, we must inform our visitors of the use of these features and that third-party vendor, and we may use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) along with third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) in combination to collect information about your usage of our site. This allows us to send you an e-mail if you begin to fill out our check-out form but abandon it before completion, reminding you to finish the process. In addition, Remarketing allows us to reach people who have previously visited our site and to match a message with the right audience.

You can opt-out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting Google’s ad settings, or you can opt-out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

Facebook. The information we collect from Facebook users, as advertisers on Facebook and through our Facebook page, may be used in the same manner as described in this Privacy Policy. To collect such information, you will need to consent.

We comply with Facebook’s Data Use Restrictions. Ad data collected, received or derived from Facebook ads (“Facebook advertising data”) is only shared with service providers acting on our behalf. Therefore, Facebook advertising data and any other information we receive from them must be protected by our service providers, we must limit our use of them, and their data must be secure and confidential.

No data from Facebook advertising campaigns are shared with any third parties (including retargeting, commingling data across multiple advertisers’ campaigns, piggybacking or redirecting with tags), except as aggregated and anonymous data (unless explicitly authorised by Facebook) and only for purposes of assessing our Facebook advertising campaigns.

The Facebook advertising data, including targeting criteria for a Facebook ad, will not be used to build, append to, edit, influence, or augment any profile, including profiles associated with any mobile device identifiers or other unique identifiers that identify any particular user, browser, computer, or device.

We do not transfer Facebook advertising data (including anonymous data, aggregated data, or derived data) to any advertising network, ad exchange, data broker, or any other service related to advertising or monetisation.

As a company that markets its site, content, products, and/or services online, we do not specifically target EU markets or do business with the EU in a meaningful way. Nevertheless, we will comply with all relevant provisions of GDPR in the course of your use of our site, content, products, and/or services.

The European Economic Area (EEA) residents, or visitors accessing this site from the EEA, are entitled to requests regarding access, correction, deletion, portability, and restriction of their personal information. As part of this, there is a “right to be forgotten.”

Statement on Children’s Privacy. Concerning children under the age of thirteen, this children’s privacy statement explains our practices regarding the online collection and use of their personal information and provides information about their rights under federal law.

Children under the age of thirteen are not permitted to access our site, and we will not knowingly collect personally identifiable information about them. We screen users who wish to provide us with personal information in order to prevent underage users from providing such information. We will delete any information from our database if we discover we inadvertently collected personal information from children under thirteen as part of the site. When our practices change, we will obtain prior, verifiable parental consent before collecting any personally identifiable information as part of the site from children under the age of thirteen.

We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of thirteen on the site, and we do not knowingly disclose such information to third parties either.

Children under the age of thirteen are not permitted to post or otherwise distribute personally identifiable contact information on the site.

The site does not collect any personally identifiable information from children under thirteen, so we do not require children under thirteen to provide personal information to participate in the site’s online activities.
