  • post any user content to the Website or our related Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram accounts (user content includes comments, images, videos and audio-visual
    files) and/or
  • provide it to us as part of your dealings with us.

In all other cases where the information we collect cannot reasonably be used to identify you or allow a holder of such information to contact you directly, that information will not be personal information (Non-Identifying Information).

A type of Non-Identifying Information that we may collect and store is statistical, analytical and other usage information and data derived from your use of our Service (usage data includes, for example, the date and time of your visit to the Website, the features or functions of our Service that you use, some ‘cookies’ sent to us via your Internet browser, aggregated quantitative information about active users and user activities and various other content uploaded to our Service– to the extent such information and data does not identify you, it is not personal information.
