(a) To help improve the service we provide through our Bumpr Services, certain information is collected from your browser. This information is collected as statistical information and may include the IP address, browser type, language and access times. This website also uses cookies to track pages visited and information accessed within our website. This information is for statistical reference, site analysis and to remember your details and preferences when you return to that website.

They include third party cookies placed by our partners and other advertisers who share cookie data with us. For example, we use these cookies to re-target our advertising to appropriate audiences within our advertising partners’ platforms, such as Facebook advertising.

 

(d) The Bumpr Service may also use third party website tools from time to time, for example data analytics and online survey tools. These third parties have access to your personal information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are prohibited from disclosing or using it for any other purpose. These service providers may change from time to time, but they generally include the following:

1.   Google Analytics and Google Adwords

2. Facebook
