HOW DOES STINGRAY USE COOKIES?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored in a dedicated location on your computer, mobile device, tablet or other device when you use your browser to visit an online service. Other tracking technologies, such as web beacons and tracking pixels may be used for similar purposes. In this Privacy Policy, all of these tracking technologies are collectively referred to as “Cookies”. Any Personal Information collected with Cookies by Stingray or on its behalf are treated with the same level of confidentiality as any other Personal Information held by Stingray.

Strictly necessary Cookies

These Cookies are necessary for the Stingray Services to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. Strictly necessary cookies must be present for the Stingray Services to provide basic functions and could include signing in, adding items to a cart, or e-billing. They allow for a user to navigate back and forth between pages without losing their previous actions from the same session.

Non-essential Cookies

If you have consented to their use, Stingray and/or its third-party partners may also use non-essential Cookies in connection with the Stingray Services and the Stingray Messages, including the following:

• Functional Cookies. These Cookies enable the Stingray Services to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. If you have consented to their use, functional Cookies allow the Stingray Services to remember the preferences and choices that you make including your username, region, and language.

• Social media Cookies. If you have consented to them, we use social media Cookies such as the Facebook pixel to provide you with personalised offers, to measure, optimize and build audiences for advertising campaigns served on social media platforms. The Stingray Services may also use Cookies for sharing content with social media (such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram). Using the share buttons will set a Cookie to link the content viewed on our website to your user account with such networks, if any.

• Advertising Cookies. If you have consented to their use, we use advertising Cookies to gather information from you on your devices to display advertisements to you based on relevant topics that may be of interest to you. Also, our partners may use these Cookies to determine whether our advertisements were displayed to you and whether you interacted with them. In such cases, our partners share data with us, including statistics about the performance of our ads. If you want more information about how to manage and/or disable Advertising Cookies, visit http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. You can also refuse the use of such Cookies by following the instructions listed below.

To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics, visit http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You can also refuse the use of analytic Cookies by following the instructions listed below.

How to manage Cookies

Except for strictly necessary Cookies, we will only place Cookies on your devices if you consent to it, and such Cookies will be kept for a maximum period of thirteen (13) months from when they are placed on your devices. At the end of this period, your consent will be required again.

Cookies can be managed and/or disabled through your browser’s Cookie settings, mobile device’s advertising settings and, in the case of the Stingray Messages, through the Preference Center. Social media Cookies (“plugins”) can also be managed by consulting the following networks’ policies:

HOW DOES STINGRAY PROVIDE ONLINE ADVERTISING?

With the use of Cookies, questionnaires or with mobile advertising identifiers

Stingray and its third-party partners may collect your Personal Information to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of interest to you, including advertisements about specific Stingray Services. Such Personal Information is collected: (i) with social media Cookies and/or advertising Cookies as set forth above in the Section “How Does Stingray Use Cookies?”; (ii) directly from you when completing a survey, filling in a questionnaire or consenting to receiving the Stingray Messages.

Depending on the preferences that you have expressed on your mobile devices, Stingray and its advertising partners may also use your mobile advertising identifier to target and measure the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns. In iOS, this identifier is called “IDFA” (ID for Advertising); in Android (Google Play), this identifier is called “AAID” (Android Advertising ID). You can access and reset your mobile advertising identifier or limit its use through the settings on your mobile devices’ operating system.

In no event will Stingray permit advertising directed at children where it has actual knowledge that the user is under the age of 13. To learn more about Stingray’s advertising practices, please contact Stingray as set forth in the Section “How to Contact Us?”.

Do Not Track

Web browsers can transmit Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals that indicate that a user does not wish to have his/her activity tracked over time and across websites. Currently, no universally accepted standard exists for how to interpret such signals, although work to create consensus is ongoing. Accordingly, and because Stingray does not track its users over time and across third-party websites, Stingray does not respond to such DNT signals.

WHERE IS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION STORED AND TRANSFERRED?

Your Personal Information may be held by Stingray in locations other than your province, territory, state, or country of residence, including in Canada (including in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario), the United States and/or the United Kingdom. Stingray may also subcontract processing to or share your Personal Information with third parties located elsewhere, including locations other than your province, territory, state, or country of residence. In such case, Stingray will ensure that your Personal Information is transferred to countries that have received an adequacy decision from the competent authority, or that your Personal Information is adequately protected by appropriate technical, organizational, contractual, or other lawful means. If you would like to obtain more information on these security measures, please contact Stingray as set forth in the Section “How to Contact Us?”.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS?

Depending on applicable laws, you might have the right to have your Personal Information deleted, the right to obtain access to, or rectification of your Personal Information, the right to withdraw your consent (if any), the right not to be discriminated against, the right to object to the use of your Personal Information by Stingray, or the right to receive a copy of all Personal Information that Stingray has about you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
