Information that we collect and How it is Used

Information that you provide to us – “Personal Information”

As a registered user, or any visitor who is attempting to register with the Site, you will be providing personal information to the Site. This information may, but is not limited to, your name, email, date of birth, and address. In addition, use of this site may provide registered users with the opportunity to provide other personal information either through the Site or through third party sites, of which iEquine maintains no responsibility for, and disclaims all liability associated through the use of third party links on the Site. We encourage you to be aware of the content you are viewing and the link you may be clicking when you are about to leave our site and to read the privacy statements of any sites you may visit.

iEquine may also arrange for users and visitors to provide additional information from surveys, reviews, or other actions that may require you to express your interest in certain activities and interests. Some of this information may include metadata that will be collected, stored, and used by iEquine unless removed by you.

Any personal information or content that is publicly posted or otherwise disclosed, either publicly or privately, via usage of the Site may be collected. For instance, certain features and functionalities of the Site may require you to interact or participate and the information obtained through such usage may be collected.

Cookies

iEquine may keep track of some of the actions you take on the Site through cookies, which are pieces of information that a web site (such as this Site) stores on your hard drive. iEquine may use cookies, web beacons, clear gifs or similar technologies on the Site. Cookies are used for a variety of reasons, including obtaining preferences of our visitors and the services they select, as well as providing an enhanced web experience and protecting your information.

iEquine uses both “session ID cookies” and “persistent cookies.” iEquine uses session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate the Site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie enables iEquine to track and target the interests of users to enhance the experience on the Site. Your web browser allows you to control and limit cookies on your computer. If you reject cookies, you may still use the Site, but your ability to use some areas or functions of the Site may be impacted.

In order to provide you with the best possible web experience, iEquine may also need to provide general information about you to pre-approved third party applications that you or other organizations may use. iEquine does not own or operate any applications or individual sites that you may use other than the Site and related iEquine Program(s). In addition, any third party sites, or other applications that we have no control over, may utilize applications to export your information to tools like RSS feeds, databases, address books, or copy and paste information from this site. Again, iEquine does not maintain any third party sites and thus disclaims all liability associated with the use of such.

Some of the third parties that provide offers or links may also use cookies on the Site. iEquine has no access to or control over these cookies. This privacy policy covers the use of cookies by iEquine only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers or other third parties.
