This privacy policy describes how KORTX collects and uses data while protecting your privacy. Last updated January 2019.
KORTX, LLC (“KORTX,” “we,” “us,” “our”) is a provider of targeted interactive advertising technology and services to websites and online marketers, and considers the protection of your privacy to be of great importance. This Privacy Policy was prepared to describe how we use and collect consumer data that we collect when users access websites or mobile applications that use our services (our “Business Partners”), or that third parties share with us. This Privacy Policy does not apply to practices of third parties that we do not own or control. You should review the privacy policies of all websites you visit and mobile applications you use.
To opt out from KORTX’s collection of non-personally identifiable information about your web browsing activity to serve targeted ads, please select at the bottom of this page.
When you opt out using either of these methods, we will place an opt-out cookie on your browser. This means that we will no longer serve ads that are targeted based on your web browsing to your web browser, though we may continue to serve you default (i.e., non-targeted) ads. Our opt-out cookies are set to expire after 6 years. You should note that if you delete, block or otherwise restrict cookies, you may need to renew your opt-out choice. Also, please be aware that when you opt out, your opt-out cookie will only be effective as to the computer AND BROWSER or device that you opted out from; you must opt out for each browser, on each computer or device you use, individually.
With respect to mobile apps, you may opt out using the settings available on your device (“Limit Ad Tracking” on iOS and “Opt Out of Interest-Based Ads” on Android). When you have opted out using one of these settings, we will not use the information we collect from the apps installed on your device to infer your interests or serve ads to that device that are targeted based on your inferred interests.
Data Collection and Usage through Our Services
Personal Information
We consider “personal information” to be data that personally identifies you as an individual, like your name, street address or phone number. KORTX has designed its systems to avoid using, collecting or keeping personal information about people who interact with our technology.
This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.
Privacy
Non-Personal Information
To provide services to our Business Partners, we collect certain non-personal information using various technologies, including cookies as well as non-cookie technologies. The information we collect includes, but is not limited to: your browser type, your IP address, user agent string, information about your operating system, device, or mobile carrier, and the unique identifier assigned to your device. In addition, we collect information about your web browsing and app usage, such as the date and time you visited a Business Partners’ websites or apps, pages of such websites or apps that you visit, the names or types of mobile app that you visit, your location when you accessed the app, and other data such as page visits, ads shown, and ads clicked.
KORTX may also receive non-personal information from other sources; for example, we might receive data from a third party that indicates that in a geographic area, a certain model of car is popular and therefore people located in that general area might be interested in an ad for similar cars. We combine this information with the information we collect directly.
KORTX may use certain health-related information in delivering advertisements. This may include, without limitation, utilization of the following health-related data segments: Men’s Health and Wellness, Women’s Health and Wellness, General Health, Seniors’ Health and Wellness, and Common Ailments and Illnesses.
Use of Non-Personal Information
In order to serve you targeted advertisements, KORTX assembles non-personally identifiable, demographic, behavioral and technical information to create large visitor “clusters.” These clusters represent data that has been aggregated into large anonymous groupings, but that our assembled data suggests may have similar needs or interests. To ensure that the online marketing targeting services provided by KORTX are targeted correctly, Business Partners’ websites place KORTX’s data tags on their sites. These tags are used to match visitor browsing behavior to a cluster profile, in order to serve you an advertisement you may be interested in.
In addition, KORTX may use non-personal information to improve its products and services, in order to optimize your online experience.
