Here is more detail of types of Tracking Technologies:
Cookies. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s device, which may be session ID cookies or tracking cookies. Session cookies make it easier for you to navigate the Service and expire when you close your browser. Tracking cookies remain longer and help in understanding how you use the Service, and enhance your user experience. Cookies may remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time. If you use your browser’s method of blocking or removing cookies, some but not all types of cookies may be deleted and/or blocked and as a result some features and functionalities of the Service may not work. A Flash cookie (or locally shared object) is a data file which may be placed on a device via the Adobe Flash plug-in that may be built-in to or downloaded by you to your device. HTML5 cookies can be programmed through HTML5 local storage. Flash cookies and HTML5 cookies are locally stored on your device other than in the browser and browser settings won’t control them. To identify certain types of local shared objects on your device and adjust your settings, please visit: www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html . The Service may associate some or all of these types of cookies with your devices.
Web Beacons (“Tracking Pixels”). Web beacons are small graphic images, also known as “Internet tags” or “clear gifs,” embedded in web pages and e-mail messages. Web beacons may be used, without limitation, to count the number of visitors to the Service, to monitor how users navigate the Service, and to count content views. These may also be used to locate (sometimes precisely) you, or make assumptions about your location, for purposes such as verifying your location and delivering or restricting content based on your location. If you have enabled GPS or use other location-based features on the Service, your device location may be tracked.
Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code designed to collect information about your interactions with the Service. It is temporarily downloaded onto your computer from Company’s web server, or from a third-party with which Company works, and is active only while you are connected to the Service, and deleted or deactivated thereafter.
Device Fingerprinting. Collection and analysis of information from your device, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts, and other data, for purposes of identification and/or tracking.

In-App Tracking Methods. There are a variety of Tracking Technologies that may be included in mobile applications, and these are not browser-based like cookies and cannot be controlled by browser settings. Some use device identifiers, or other identifiers such as “Ad IDs” to associate app user activity to a particular app and to track user activity across apps and/or devices.
Some information about your use of the Service and certain Third-Party Services may be collected using Tracking Technologies across time and services, and used by Company and third parties for purposes such as to associate different devices you use, and deliver relevant ads and/or other content to you on the Service and certain Third-Party Services.

4. CHOICES: SELLING, TRACKING AND COMMUNICATIONS OPTIONS.
- Tracking Technologies
Regular cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Browsers offer different functionalities and options so you may need to set them separately. Also, tools from commercial browsers may not be effective with regard to Flash cookies (also known as locally shared objects), HTML5 cookies, or other Tracking Technologies. For information on disabling Flash cookies, go to Adobe’s website http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/disable-third-party-local-shared.html . Please be aware that if you disable or remove these technologies, some parts of the Service may not work and that when you revisit the Service your ability to limit browser-based Tracking Technologies is subject to your browser settings and limitations.
Some app-related Tracking Technologies in connection with non-browser usage (e.g., most functionality of a mobile app) can only be disabled by uninstalling the app. To uninstall an app, follow the instructions from your operating system or handset manufacturer.
- “Do Not Track”
Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many online services, Company currently does not alter Company’s practices when Company receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser.
- Analytics and Advertising Tracking
You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
You may choose whether to receive some Interest-based Advertising by submitting opt-outs. Some of the advertisers and Service Providers that perform advertising-related services for us and third parties may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices regarding Interest-based Advertising, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ , and http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices for information on the DAA’s opt-out program for mobile apps. Some of these companies may also be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your opt-out options for their members, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ . Please be aware that, even if you are able to opt out of certain kinds of Interest-based Advertising, you may continue to receive other types of ads. Opting out only means that those selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based Advertising to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks). Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use of a different device or web browsers or use a non-browser-based method of access (e.g., mobile app), your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may not, or may no longer, be effective. Company supports the ad industry’s 2009 Self-regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising ( http://www.iab.net/media/file/ven-principles-07-01-09.pdf) and expects that ad networks Company directly engages to serve you Interest-based Advertising will do so as well, though Company cannot guarantee their compliance. Company is not responsible for effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.
You can opt out of receiving certain promotional communications from Company at any time by following the instructions provided in e-mails to click on the unsubscribe link, or if available by changing your communication preferences by logging onto your account. Please note that your opt-out is limited to the e- mail address used and will not affect subsequent subscriptions. If you opt-out of only certain communications, other subscription communications may continue. Even if you opt out of receiving promotional communications, Company may, subject to applicable law, continue to send you non-promotional communications, such as those about your account, transactions, servicing, or Company’s ongoing business relations.

- “Legal Categories” of Personal Information
Certain laws require us to tell you about the Personal Information we collect about you in a certain way – specifically, we need to tie it back to “legal categories” of Personal Information that are listed in the law. To do this, we bundled up the information we gave you above in this Notice and matched the different types of Personal Information we collect about you with the legal category. To make things easier to understand, we’ve put this information in a chart that shows you six things:
- The legal category of Personal Information,
- Examples of the types of Personal Information included in each legal category,
- The source from which your Personal Information is collected,
- The purpose for why we collect and use your Personal Information for each legal category,

Some privacy laws require that we disclose to you the privacy rights that you have regarding Personal Information collected from and/or about you. We have defined the various privacy rights below. To see which rights apply to you, refer to the “Privacy Rights Chart” immediately following this subsection.

You may have the right to ask us to limit our use of your Sensitive Personal Information to only what is required to accomplish the purposes we included in this privacy notice or that you reasonably expect from us.

Where applicable and technically feasible, Company will accommodate your valid request to exercise your privacy rights and choices. You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf.
Responding to Requests: Your request will be evaluated to determine whether the requested change meets legal regulatory requirements and does not risk making our other data less secure or changing our other data. If we aren’t able to honor any part of your request, we will tell you that in our response, as well as the reason(s) we cannot do so.
Verifying Your Identity: In order for us to look into your request, we first need to verify your identity, meaning that we need to make sure that you are the consumer we may have collected Personal Information about or a person who has been duly authorized to make the request on behalf of the consumer.

Requests by Authorized Agents: You may have the right to designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. Authorized agents of Consumers may make a request by visiting here.

Absent a power of attorney, we will also require the Consumer to verify their own identity. We may verify identity based on matching information you provided with data we have maintained on you in our systems. This data could include, but is not limited to, email address, mailing address, or phone number.

We do not share personal information with non-Affiliate third parties for their direct marketing purposes absent your consent. If you are a California resident, you may request information about our compliance with the Shine the Light law and/or withdraw previously given consent to sharing with non- Affiliate third parties for their direct marketing purposes by contacting us here or by sending a letter to us at 5004 E. Fowler Ave, Unit C, Ste 139, Tampa Fl 33637 (Attn: Legal Department).

Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through the provided e-mail address or mailing address.
As these rights and your privacy rights are not the same and exist under different laws, you must exercise your rights under this law and the other privacy laws separately.
- Children's
Per our Terms of Service, our online Service is only for individuals twenty-one (21) years of age and older. Company does not seek to or intentionally collect Personal Information of individuals under twenty-one (21) years of age. If you suspect that an individual using our Service is under the age of 21, please contact Company by email at cigarsandmore@gmail.com. We will then make reasonable good faith efforts to remove the minor’s post from prospective public view or anonymize it, so the minor cannot be individually identified to the extent required by applicable law.

7. HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.
We will only retain your Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
