Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies
A cookie is an alphanumeric set of characters that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer so that our Websites can remember who you are. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number.
Similar technologies are tools that can be used instead of or in conjunction with cookies, such as web beacons, which are small, non-recognizable pictures downloaded to your computer when a specific site is loaded.
When you visit our Websites, we may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
- To help us recognize you as a unique visitor (just a number) when you return to our Website.
- To allow us to tailor content or advertisements to match your preferred interests.
- To avoid showing you the same advertisements repeatedly.
- To develop leads for our sales organization and our business partners and provide direct marketing communications to you if you have consented to receive such communications.
- To compile anonymous, aggregated statistics that allow us to understand how users interact with our site.
- To help us improve the structure of our Websites.
- To protect the security of our Website.
- Our Website uses the following categories of cookies.
Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our Website, such as which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. The cookies don’t collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated, and therefore, anonymous. For example, we use Adobe Analytics to understand how visitors engage with our Website. This means that when you visit our Website, your browser automatically sends certain information to Adobe. This includes, for example, the web address of the page you’re visiting and your IP address. You will find the details of how the Adobe technology collects and processes data at Adobe Privacy Overview
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow a Website to remember choices you make (such as your language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other parts of web pages you can customize. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
Targeting and Advertising Cookies: cookies are used to deliver advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement, as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited a website, and this information is shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.
Two types of cookies may be used on our Websites: session cookies (which are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the site), and persistent cookies (which remain in the cookie file of your browser for much longer, though how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie).
Disabling and Enabling Cookies
You can use your browser settings to withdraw your consent to our use of cookies at any time and delete cookies that have already been set. The website www.allaboutcookies.org contains comprehensive information about the process of opting out on different browsers. Note that by disabling certain categories of cookies you may be prevented from accessing some features of our Websites, or certain content or functionality may not be available.
If you don’t want Adobe Analytics to be used in your browser, you can block the cookies in your cookie setting by enabling the Adobe Analytics Opt-Out Feature.
If you are in the European Union (EU) and would like to opt out of third-party cookies relating to behavioral advertising, see www.youronlinechoices.eu. Opting out does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising. It does mean that the company or companies from which you opted out will no longer deliver ads tailored to your web preferences and usage patterns.
Do Not Track
There are different ways to prevent tracking of online activities. Some web browsers may allow you to enable a do-not-track feature that alerts the websites you visit that you do not want your online activities to be tracked. Our Websites may not recognize or react in response to do-not-track signals. At present, no universally accepted standards exist on how companies should respond to do-not-track signals. In the event a final universally accepted standard is established, we will assess and provide an appropriate response to these signals.

Your California Privacy Rights
Residents of California, under California Civil Code § 1798.83, have the right to request from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to which the company has disclosed personal information, for direct marketing purposes, during the preceding year. Alternatively, the law provides that, if the company has a privacy policy that gives either an opt-out or opt-in choice for use of your personal information by third parties (such as advertisers) for marketing purposes, the company may instead provide you with information on how to exercise your disclosure choice options.
numbskin.com qualifies for the alternative option. We have a comprehensive privacy statement and provide you with details on how you may either opt-out or opt-in to the use of your personal information by third parties for direct marketing purposes. Therefore, we are not required to maintain or disclose a list of the third parties that received your personal information for marketing purposes during the preceding year.
If you are a California resident and want information about how to exercise your third-party disclosure choices, please email us your request to info@numbskin.com
