In providing our Services to you, we may find it necessary or beneficial to share your information with our service providers, including our credit card processing services, our advertising service providers, and other entities that assist us in connection with the provision of the Services, such as hosting partners (collectively, “Providers”) or allow such Providers to gather information directly from you.

Some of this information that you provide to us or our Providers may include your personal information such as in the following circumstances:

  • Providers: We provide your personal information to Providers who work with us to provide our Services. Our Services with which our Providers may assist us include among other things, communicating with you about new or existing RISA services or services offered by unaffiliated entities such as our partners or entities providing products or services that integrate with ours, creating or maintaining our databases, researching or analyzing our users, advertising (including online advertising) or processing payment card information.

Section 6. Cookies and Web Beacons

When you use our Services, a cookie that uniquely identifies your IP address, your browser and the portion of our Services that you have requested (such as webpage) may be sent from your computer or mobile device directly to us.

Cookies and other tracking technologies (such as browser cookies, pixels, beacons, and Adobe Flash technology that include cookies) are comprised of small bits of data that often include de-identified and anonymous user information and/or identifiers. We may use these technologies to collect and store information about you and your usage of our Services, such as the content you view within our Services, purchases you have made or have indicated an interest in making in respect of our Services, search queries you have run, and any advertisements you may have seen. We also use cookies to improve the quality of our Services (for example, by fulfilling your language, account recognition, filtering and other preferences) and to better understand how people interact with our Services (for example, by tracking user trends and patterns associated with the use of our Services). Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some aspects of the Services may not function properly without cookies. If you would like more information about cookies and how to control and delete cookies in various browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Opera and Chrome, please click here.

We may work with advertising companies (our Providers) who may also utilize flash or enhanced cookies or web beacons to better provide advertisements about goods and services, including our Services, that may be of interest to you. As a result, we may also deliver a file to your computer through the Services (known as a “web beacon”) from an advertising network Provider. Web beacons allows advertising networks to provide anonymized, aggregated auditing, research and reporting for us and for other advertisers. Web beacons also enable ad networks to serve targeted advertisements to you when you visit other websites. These beacons may, for example, log that you have viewed a certain product or service on our site and then show you an ad for that product or service or a similar product or service when you browse to another website. Since your web browser sends a request to receive content from webpages you visit, these companies can view, edit, or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site. To "opt-out" of receiving cookies from certain of our advertising Providers, please click here and here.

We may use the services of web analytics companies to help us measure the effectiveness of, and otherwise improve, our Services. To do this, we allow the web analytics companies to include web beacons and cookies on the web pages of our Services. The type of information collected via such web beacons and cookies includes click-throughs by users and other similar information. By supplementing our records, this information helps us learn things like user preferences, click-through rates, and how to improve our Services. We use Google Analytics as one of our web analytics companies. To learn more about Google’s privacy practices, please review the Google Privacy Policy. You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics.

Section 7. Confidentiality and Security

We recognize our responsibility to protect the personal information you entrust to us. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with applicable law to guard your information. While we take precautions against unauthorized access to your personal information, no website or Internet transmission is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. Your use of our Services is at your own risk. We urge you to take steps to protect your Personal Information when you are on the Internet by, for example, changing your passwords often using a combination of letters and numbers, and making sure you use a secure Internet browser.

Section 8. Links

Any web sites that you click to from one of the web pages may have been developed by unaffiliated entities over which we exercise no control. Such web sites may send their own cookies to end-users, collect data, or solicit personal information from you. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such web sites, including the use of any information collected when our end-users click through to such web sites. If you are concerned about the privacy policy of an entity with which we are not affiliated, we strongly encourage you to contact them directly or visit their individual web sites to learn more about their individual privacy policies.

Section 9. Provider Software

Certain of our Providers who provide or enable certain functionality of our Services may also request or require that you download certain software or collect information from you, including personal information in order to access such functionality.
