5. Tracking Technologies (Cookies)
A few additional important things the user should know about our use of tracking technologies (cookies):
- We can offer certain features that are available only through the use of tracking technologies.
- We use both session and persistent tracking technologies. Tracking technologies (e.g., cookies) can either be persistent (i.e., they remain on the computer until the user deletes them) or temporary (i.e., they last only until the user closes the browser). The user is always free to disable tracking technologies if the user’s browser permits, although doing so can interfere with the user’s use of the Site. Refer to the help section of your browser, browser extensions, or installed applications for instructions on blocking, deleting, or disabling tracking technologies such as cookies.
- We encode and protect the tracking technologies that the Provider sets, so that only we can interpret the information stored in them. The user can encounter tracking technologies/cookies from our third party service providers that we have allowed on our Site that assist us with various aspects of our Site operations and services, such as Google Analytics.
- The user can also encounter tracking technologies from third parties on certain pages of the websites that we do not control and have not authorized. (For example, if the user views a web page created by another user, there can be a cookie placed by that web page).
6. Information Security
Get Cover Letter maintains technical, physical, and administrative security measures designed to protect the security of the user’s Personal Information against loss, misuse, unauthorized or accidental access, disclosure, copying, use or alteration. Some of the safeguards we use are firewalls, data encryption, physical access controls to our data centers, information access authorization controls and other measures in accordance with industry standards. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is totally secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
7. Notification Regarding Updates.
The user agrees that we can notify him or her about material changes in the way we treat Personal Information by placing a notice on the Site. The user should check the Site frequently for updates. In addition, we have provided the Privacy Policy Highlights section to offer a summary of the main points of our Full Privacy Policy for the user’s convenience. In the event of a conflict between the Privacy Policy Highlights and the Full Privacy Policy, the Full Privacy Policy will take priority.
