You do not have to register for a service or program to receive much of the information available through the RWAG Sites.

Examples of Information you may provide include name, telephone number, e-mail address, website address, employer, professional affiliations, and personal interests.

Information That May Be Collected Automatically

When you use the RWAG Sites, we also may collect certain usage and device information automatically as described below.

• IP Address

We may record the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address of your computer or other electronic device when you visit the RWAG Sites. An IP address identifies the electronic device you use to access the RWAG Sites, which allows us to maintain communication with your computer as you move about the RWAG Sites and to customize content.

• Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

We also collect information about your use of the RWAG Sites through tracking technologies such as cookies and web beacons. A “cookie” is a unique numeric code that is transferred to your computer to track your interests and preferences and to recognize you as a return visitor. A “web beacon” is a transparent graphic image placed on a website, e-mail or advertisement that enables the monitoring of things such as user activity and site traffic. These technologies help remember your preferences and allow us to bring you the content and features that are likely to be of greatest interest to you on the basis of “clickstream” data that shows your previous activities on the RWAG Sites.

We utilize Google Display Advertising (such as Display Advertising on Facebook and Instagram, Retargeting with Google Analytics, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, DoubleClick Campaign Manager Integration, and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting) to (1) show you our ads on other websites based on your prior visits to the RWAG Sites, and (2) better understand our ad impressions and use of ad services. In connection with the Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting service, we may use data from Google’s interest-based advertising or third-party audience data (such as age, gender and interests) with Google Analytics to understand and improve our marketing campaigns and site content.

Some of our online advertising takes place through Google Display Advertising. As part of this program, we use Google Analytics features such as Retargeting. In connection with that feature and others offered by ad networks, we and the operators of ad networks, including Google, may use third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) – and in some cases first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) – to inform, optimize and serve ads across the internet, based on a user’s past visits to the RWAG Sites. We may also show you ads from some of our affiliates when you visit the RWAG Sites.

You can opt out of Google Ads by visiting Google Ad Settings. If you do not want your data used by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at the Google Analytics opt-out page.

This RWAG Site is not designed to respond to “do not track” signals received from browsers.

You can opt out from advertisers that use your browsing history to deliver online behavioral advertisements by visiting http://youradchoices.com. Please note that some cookies are essential to the functioning of RWAG Sites and deleting or disabling them will reduce site functionality.

DATA SECURITY

RedwoodAG and Redwood maintain reasonable technical, administrative, and physical controls to secure any Personal Data collected through the RWAG Sites. However, there is always some risk that an unauthorized third party could intercept an internet transmission, or that someone will find a way to thwart our security systems. We urge you to exercise caution when transmitting Personal Data over the internet, especially your financial information.

When you visit RWAG Sites, the operator of the social plug-in can place a cookie on your computer or other electronic device that enables that operator to recognize individuals who have previously visited our site. If you are logged into a social media website (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) while browsing on our RWAG Site, the social media plug-in allows that social media website to receive information about your visit to our RWAG Site. The social media plug-in also allows the social media website to share information about your activities on our RWAG Site with other users of their social media website. These sharing settings are managed by the social media website and governed by its privacy policy.

By using this site, you understand that your Personal Data will be stored and processed in the United States and in any country to which we may transfer your information in the course of our business operations.

SECURITY MEASURES AND STORAGE LIMITS

For example, we take reasonable measures to limit access to this data to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve the  services of RedwoodAG and RWAG. Please be aware that, although we endeavor to provide reasonable security for data we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches. As a result, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit on or through the RWAG Sites or use of RWAG Services and you do so at your own risk.

Our retention periods for personal data are based on our business needs and legal requirements. We retain personal data for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which the information was collected, and any other permissible, related purpose.
