All User-Generated Content is subject to consideration by FineArtCanvas.com as a potential marketing material.

Information We Receive or Collect from Other Third Parties or Public Sources

Internet Advertising – We may use third-party service providers to process our information and serve ads on our behalf across the Internet and sometimes on the Website. They may collect anonymous information about your visits to our Website, and your interaction with our products and services. They may also use information about your visits to this and other websites to target advertisements for goods and services.

We may receive or collect information about you from third parties and store it on our servers with other information we may have already received or collected from you, such as publicly available information you provided third-party platforms.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use Cookies and similar technologies to enable our systems to recognize your browser/device and to provide certain features.  We also collect some Device Information and Usage Information using such technologies.

Cookies – “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. A cookie may enable the website owner to track how a visitor navigates through its website and the areas in which they show interest. This is similar to a traffic report: it tracks trends and behaviors but does not identify individuals. Information gathered may include date and time of visits, pages viewed, time spent at the site, and the website visited just before and just after a visit to our Service. Cookies can be set to expire: (1) on a specified date; (2) after a specific period of time; (3) when a transaction has been completed; or (4) when a user turns off his/her Internet browser.  A cookie that is erased from memory when a visitor’s Internet browser closes is called a “session” cookie.  Cookies that expire based on a time set by the Web server are called “persistent” cookies.

Our Service may use both “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”. Most people do not know that cookies are being placed on their computers when they visit our Service or most websites because browsers are typically set to accept cookies.  For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

Our Service uses anonymous cookies to track information on your browsing history on the Services. We also use third-party advertising networks, such as Google AdSense and AdRoll, to serve ads to you on Our behalf on other sites throughout the Internet. For more information or to opt-out of this type of advertising, please visit AdRoll’s and Google AdSense’s privacy policies.

“Log files” – track actions occurring on the Service, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.

Pixel Tags – We may use "pixel tags," also known as "web beacons," which are small graphic files that allow us to monitor the use of the Website. A pixel tag is a type of technology placed on a website or within the body of an email for the purpose of tracking activity on websites, or when emails are opened or accessed, and is often used in combination with cookies.

Google Analytics – We also collect or receive various Usage Information and Device Information from third-party analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, as well as from other advertising networks. FineArtCanvas.com uses Google Analytics to track website visitor activity. FineArtCanvas.com uses user ID tracking in Google Analytics. User ID's are anonymous. We do not share any data that allows Google or any other company to personally identify an individual (by name, Social Security Number, email address, or any similar data), or data that permanently identifies a particular device (such as a unique device identifier if such an identifier cannot be reset). To learn about Google’s privacy practices, Click Here. You can opt-out of having your information used by Google Analytics. To access and use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, Click Here.

You have a variety of tools available to control the data collected by cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies. For example, you can use controls in your Internet browser to limit how the websites you visit are able to use cookies and to withdraw your consent by clearing or blocking certain non-strictly necessary cookies. Note that if you disable cookies, there may be parts of our Service that may not function properly.
