If you access the System through a mobile device and you do not want your device to provide us with location-tracking information, you can disable the GPS or other location-tracking functions on your device, provided your device allows you to do this. See your device manufacturer’s instructions for further details.

We may also receive, store and process Log Data, which is information that is automatically recorded by our servers whenever you access or use the System, regardless of whether you are registered or logged in to your ClickDate account, such as your IP Address, the date and time you access or use the System, the hardware and software you are using, referring and exit pages and URLs, the number of clicks, pages viewed and the order of those pages, and the amount of time spent on particular pages.

When you register or subscribe to our services, we collect a variety of information about you, for example, you provide us with answers to our questionnaire, and we use your answers to create your personality profile and to match you with other potential compatible partners. Certain items of information are mandatory in order to gain access to Services and directly relevant to the core functionality of our services. Your personal responses to the questions about your partner preferences in our questionnaire is kept strictly confidential, while other about yourself (such as your name, ethnicity and religion, occupation, height, etc.) will be used to build your own profile. We may also display your marital status and most recent log-in date and other profile/account information to your potential partners/users of ClickDate services. While registration you also may choose to provide us with your photo(s) and by providing us such content, you agree that we make them available to your potential partners/users of ClickDate services.

Such information is used primarily to process your order or as otherwise described herein. Credit card transactions are processed through industry standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and/or strong encryption (3DES) by a third party, which only uses your information for that purpose. We do not store any credit card information in our system

We require an e-mail address from you when you register for our System. We use your e-mail for both transactional (e.g., order confirmation, refund and renewal processing, notifying of matches for our Singles service) and promotional (e.g., newsletters, new product offerings, special discounts, event notifications, special third-party offers) purposes. E-mail messages we send you may contain code that enables our database to track your usage of the e-mails, including whether the e-mail was opened and what links (if any) were clicked. We reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to the ClickDate services, such as service announcements and administrative messages, without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them.

We may, either directly or through third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us, also continue to track your behavior on our own System for purposes of our own customer support, analytics, research, product development, fraud prevention, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, investigation, as well as to enable you to use and access the System and pay for your activities on the System. We may also, either directly or through third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us, track your behavior on our own System to market and advertise our services to you on the System and third party websites. Third parties that use cookies and other tracking technologies to deliver targeted advertisements on our System and/or third party websites may offer you a way to prevent such targeted advertisements by opting-out at the websites of industry groups such as the Network Advertising Initiative ( http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/) and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance (http://www.aboutads.info/choices/). You may also be able to control advertising cookies provided by publishers, for example Google’s Ad Preference Manager (https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/).

You may review, update, correct or delete the Personal Information in your ClickDate account by logging in to your account. If you would like to cancel your ClickDate account entirely, you can do so by logging in to your account.

If we let you know of changes through an email communication, then the date on which we send the email will be deemed to be the date of your receipt of that email.
It’s important that you review the changed Privacy Policy. If you do not wish to agree to the changed Privacy Policy, then we will not be able to continue providing the System to you, and your only option will be to stop accessing the System and deactivate your ClickDate account.

ClickDate uses “cookies” in conjunction with the System to obtain information. A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your device (e.g., your phone or your computer) for record-keeping purposes. For example, a cookie could allow the System to recognize your browser, while another could store your preferences and other information. Your browser may allow you to set how it handles cookies, such as declining all cookies or prompting you to decide whether to accept each cookie. But please note that some parts of the System may not work as intended or may not work at all without cookies.

ClickDate cookies and third party cookies

ClickDate may place our cookies on your device via the System. Accordingly, our Privacy Policy will apply to our treatment of the information we obtain via our cookies.
We may also allow our business partners to place cookies on your device. For example, we use Google Analytics for web analytics, and so Google may also set cookies on your device. As further explained below, third parties may also place cookies on your device for advertising purposes.
There are two types of cookies used on the System, namely “persistent cookies” and “session cookies”.
Session cookies will normally expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies will remain on your device after you close your browser, and can be used again the next time you access the System.

Other technologies

The System may also use other technologies with similar functionality to cookies, such as web beacons and tracking URLs to obtain Log Data about users. We may also use web beacons and tracking URLs in our messages to you to determine whether you have opened a certain message or accessed a certain link.

Uses for ClickDate cookies

ClickDate uses cookies for a number of purposes, such as the following:

1. to enable, facilitate and streamline the functioning of the System across different webpages and browser sessions.
2. to simplify your access to and use of the System and make it more seamless.
3. to monitor and analyze the performance, operation and effectiveness of the System, so that we can improve and optimize it.
4. to show you content (which may include advertisements) that is more relevant to you.

Uses for third party cookies

Our partners’ cookies are intended to obtain information to help them provide services to ClickDate. For example, third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us may track your behavior on our System to market and advertise ClickDate listings or services to you on the System and third party websites. Third parties that use cookies and other tracking technologies to deliver targeted advertisements on our System and/or third party websites may offer you a way to prevent such targeted advertisements by opting-out at the websites of industry groups such as the Network Advertising Initiative (http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/) and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance (http://www.aboutads.info/choices/). You may also be able to control advertising cookies provided by publishers, for example Google’s Ad Preference Manager (https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/). Please note that even if you choose to opt-out of receiving targeted advertising, you may still receive advertising on the System – it just will not be tailored to your interests.
In addition, Facebook places a cookie via the System that allows Facebook to obtain aggregated, non-Personal Information to optimize their services. For example, if a user clicks on an advertisement for the ClickDate mobile app on Facebook and subsequently installs the app, this cookie will inform Facebook that a user (who is not personally identified) has installed the app after clicking on the advertisement. This cookie may also inform Facebook that a user is using the app, without identifying the specific actions taken by the user in the app.

Disabling Cookies

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can modify your browser setting to decline cookies by visiting the Help portion of your browser’s toolbar. If you choose to decline cookies, please note that you may not be able to sign in, customize, or use some of the interactive features of the System. Flash cookies operate differently than browser cookies, and cookie management tools available in a web browser will not remove flash cookies.

Changes to this Cookie Policy

We can change this Cookie Policy at any time. If we make material changes to the Cookie Policy, we will let you know either by posting the changed Cookie Policy on the System or by sending you an email.
