Third Party Advertising

Advertisements that appear on the Phrazit web site are sometimes delivered (or "served") directly to users by third party advertisers. They automatically receive a user’s IP address when this happens. These third party advertisers may also download cookies to a user’s computer, or use other technologies such as JavaScript and "web beacons" (also known as "1x1 gifs") to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content. Doing this allows the advertising network to recognize a user’s computer each time they send such user an advertisement in order to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content. In this way, they may compile information about where individuals using a user’s computer or browser saw their advertisements and determine which advertisements are clicked. Phrazit does not have access to or control of the cookies that may be placed by the third party advertisers. Third party advertisers have no access to a user’s contact information stored on Phrazit unless a user chooses to share it with them.

This privacy policy covers the use of cookies by Phrazit and does not cover the use of cookies or other tracking technologies by any of its advertisers.

We endeavor to use commercially reasonable security procedures and practices in the storage and destruction of your personal information to protect its security and integrity. If we discover that the security or integrity of your personal information has been compromised, then we will take appropriate steps to respond to the incident including, if appropriate, notifying you of the incident so you can in turn take whatever steps may be appropriate to protect yourself.
