Outside of these circumstances, we choose not to share this type of information with us.

Social media and other third-party services:

(Social media tools like Instagram and other services)

These allow us to receive information from you when you interact with our pages, accounts, or posts on social media platforms. This includes data about our followers (e.g., age, gender, and location), engagement data (e.g., likes, comments, shares, posts, and clicks), brand awareness data (e.g., views and reach), and user profile data.

Business:

When your business purchases our services (e.g., Advertising), you may sometimes provide us with your name, business email address, and other business-related information.

What Do We Use the Information We Collect For?

We use the types of personal information described above for the following business and marketing purposes. These activities may involve companies, agents, or third parties.

woodcraftivity.com Services:

We use your information to help you use and navigate the woodcraftivity.com Services, such as:

Managing access to your account
Providing services to you
Responding to your questions, requests, suggestions, or complaints
Saving your reading lists and searches
Personalizing your experience.

We track your reading preferences and behavior (e.g., the articles you read) to tailor your reading experience using technologies like algorithm recommendations and machine learning. This is how we highlight stories you might like and narrow down stories you have already read. We also offer prices, promotions, products, or services that we believe will interest you based on demographic data and usage.

Developing Products, Services, and Conducting Research:

We analyze data about our users' subscriptions, purchases, and usage behavior. This helps us make business and marketing decisions.

For example, our research, which includes using technologies like machine learning, allows us to predict interests and prices for our products and services. This helps us determine whether our marketing is effective. It also shows us the identity of our readers, which we sometimes share with advertisers.

Administrative Tasks:

For internal audits: We ensure our internal processes work as intended and comply with regulations, rules, and agreements we have made.
For security and fraud monitoring: We detect and prevent cyber-attacks or unauthorized robotic activities.
For customer satisfaction: We monitor satisfaction in using woodcraftivity.com services.

Personalized Advertising on woodcraftivity.com and Creating Audiences for Third-Party Advertisers:

We collect data and work with third parties to display personalized ads to you on behalf of advertisers. This data comes from ad tracking technologies set by us or third parties, information you provide, use of woodcraftivity.com services, information from advertisers or media providers, and any content and related information provided. We only use or share this information in ways that do not reveal your identity. For example, we use Google to serve ads on woodcraftivity.com services. Google uses cookies or specific device identifiers, combined with its data, to provide you with ads based on your visits to other sites. You can opt out of Google's cookie use by reviewing the relevant Google privacy policies.

We also identify groups of users to send personalized ads on behalf of our advertisers. To do this, we combine information collected through surveys or registration with information automatically collected using tracking technologies while you browse our sites and apps. Data models are used to build these data models. This type of data is used to measure user characteristics, such as demographic information or user preferences. We work with service providers to use these metrics to group users based on common characteristics. Another example is our affiliate links, which we use in our product guides and recommendations. woodcraftivity.com services include links that direct you to the URL of service providers and other services we do not operate or control. These providers use cookies and other technologies to collect information about your browser from woodcraftivity.com services to the URL you visit. If you purchase a product after linking to the provider's URL, we may receive a service.

Additional Notes:

We will do our best to limit how third-party advertising technology providers use the information they collect from you. Many providers require us to enter agreements that allow them to promote their services and products. Essentially, these providers combine all the information they collect about you through woodcraftivity.com services with information they receive from their other customers. This helps them target ads to you on behalf of their other customers, not just us. These third parties sometimes use other services to provide ads; see their privacy policies for more details.

Advertising or Marketing Products to You:

We provide ads through websites, locations, platforms, and services operated and owned by third parties. Often, these ads target people who have visited or registered for woodcraftivity.com services but have not yet subscribed or purchased anything. Advertising also targets people with similar attitudes or behavior across consumers. We target our ads to users by uploading anonymized customer lists to third parties or by implementing other tracking technologies in our Services. Third parties combine people who appear in our data with their data. Because of how this affiliate system works, third parties cannot read your hidden customer list if they do not already have it.

To opt-out of receiving relevant communications, please contact the appropriate third party. We are not responsible for the failure of third parties to honor opt-out requests.

Links to Non-woodcraftivity.com Websites:

If you click on or interact with hyperlinks you see on the Services, including but not limited to other sites and other multi-brand network sites owned by woodcraftivity.com, you have left our Services and are sending information to other websites or appointments. Our Privacy Policy does not apply to your interactions with other websites, even if you find a link to them on our Services. You should read the terms and policies of other website providers to see how your personal information will be treated on their sites.

Security of Your Personal Information:

We will keep your information for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this privacy policy. The retention period will vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which we originally collected the information. In determining how long to retain information, we consider the amount, nature, and understanding of the information, the potential or risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, our purposes for processing the information.
