THE SITE IS INTENDED FOR USERS RESIDING IN THE UNITED STATES. IT IS NOT INTENDED FOR USERS LOCATED IN OTHER COUNTRIES, INCLUDING THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA.

INTRODUCTION
Big Visual Group (also referred to herein as “we,” “us,” and “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personal information we collect, use, share, and otherwise process as part of our business.  We also believe in transparency, and we are committed to informing you about how we treat the data that we collect and process.

When does this Policy apply? This Policy applies when you use our website, www.bigvisualgroup.com (the “Site”).  It does not apply to other interactions with us.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
We collect the following information from you for the purposes set forth below

Cookies and Similar Technologies

First and Third-Party Cookies
A “cookie” is a small file created by a web server that can be stored on your device (if you allow) for use either during a particular browsing session (a “session” cookie) or a future browsing session (a “persistent” cookie).  “Session” cookies are temporarily stored on your hard drive and only last until they expire at the end of your browsing session.  “Permanent” cookies remain stored on your hard drive until they expire or are deleted by you.  Local stored objects (or “flash” cookies) are used to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on a website.  First-party cookies are set by the Site, and they can only be read by the Site.  Third Party Cookies are set by a party other than us.

            Other Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, there are other automatic data collection technologies, such as Internet tags, web beacons (clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs), and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, etc.) that can be used to collect data as users navigate through and interact with the Site:

• Web beacons: These are tiny graphics (sometimes called “clear GIFs” or “web pixels”) with unique identifiers that are used to understand browsing activity. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are rendered invisible on web pages when you open a page.
• Social Widgets: These are buttons or icons provided by third-party social media providers that allow you to interact with social media services when you view a webpage or mobile app screen. These social widgets may collect browsing data, which may be received by the third party that provided the widget and are controlled by third parties.
• UTM Codes: These are strings that can appear in a URL (the “Uniform Resource Locator,” which is typically the http or https address entered to go to a web page) when you move from one web page or website to another, where the string can represent information about browsing, such as which advertisement, page, or publisher sent the user to the receiving website.

What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are in Use and Why Do We Use Them?

First Party Cookies. We use the following first-party cookies to provide the Platform:

Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to collect and process statistical data about the number of people using the Site and to better understand how they find and use the Site.  The data collected includes data related to your device/browser, your IP address, and on-site activities to measure and report statistics about user interactions on the Site. The information stored in the cookie is reduced to a random identifier. Any data collected is used in accordance with this Policy and Google’s privacy policy.

You may learn more about Google Analytics and the cookies used by Google by visiting https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ and https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245.  You can learn more about Google’s restrictions on data use by visiting the Google Privacy Policy at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy. To opt-out of Google Analytics, visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and install the opt-out browser add-on feature.  For more details, visit the “Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on” page (located at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/181881?hl=en). Google Analytics has certified compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Google Analytics relies on the following cookies:

Google Tag Manager. We use Google Tag Manager, which allows marketed website tags to be managed using an interface. The tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-less domain and does not register identifiable data. The tool causes other tags to be activated which may, for their part, register personal data under certain circumstances. Google Tag Manager does not access this information.  Google Tag Manager is subject to the Google Privacy Policy located at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy.

Google Marketing (Google Adwords conversion, Google Dynamic Remarketing, Google Conversion Linker, DoubleClick, Global Site Tag). We use Google’s marketing technologies to track user activity on the Site and to serve personalized advertisements. Your browser is assigned a pseudonymous ID used to track the ads that have been served to your browser and to identify those on which you’ve clicked. The cookies enable Google and its partners to select and display ads based on your browsing behavior. For more information on how Google uses this information, you can visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads, https://support.google.com/displayvideo/answer/7621162, and https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/7548399?hl=en. To block certain ads served by Google, please visit https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922. Google’s Privacy Policy is available at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.  Google’s technologies use the following cookies:

Other Third-Party Technologies

While our security measures seek to protect the data in our possession, no security system is perfect, and no data transmission is 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from the Site.  Your use of the Site is at your own risk.  We cannot guarantee that data will remain secure in all circumstances.

This Policy is applicable only to the Site, and it does not apply to any third-party websites.

The Site may contain links to, and media or other content from, third parties.  These links are to external resources and third parties that have their own privacy policies.  Because of the dynamic media capabilities of the Site, it may not be clear to you which links are to external, third-party resources.  If you click on an embedded third-party link, you will be redirected away from the Site to the external third-party resource.  You can check the URL to confirm that you have left this Site.
