4. AUTOMATIC DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES (“PERSISTENT IDENTIFIERS”)
Our web sites and online services use automatic data collection technologies (“persistent identifiers”) including but not limited to "cookies" and “web beacons” to collect certain information about visitor equipment, browsing actions and website usage.
Cookies are small files placed on the hard drive of your computer, which may collect:
a customer number,
an IP address (a Uniform Resource Locator or “URL”),
a processor or device serial number,
a unique identifier that might be used to recognize a user’s online activities over time and across different web sites or online services (behavioral tracking), including but not limited the type of operating system and software the visitor is using to browse the Internet, the "URL" (web address) that the visitor visited before and after our site and the visitor's Internet Service Provider; and
geolocation data of the visitor which may be sufficient to identify a street name and name of city or town.
Web beacons are small, transparent graphic images (such as clear GIFs, pixel tags and single-pixel GIFs) placed on website pages and advertisements for use in combination with cookies to collect website statistics, for example, to count the number of visitors to a page, to determine the popularity of website content, to determine visitor interest in website content, to identify visitors when they return to a website or online service, to store information about visitor preferences, and to verify system and server integrity.
Many internet browsers or devices may allow you to block and/or remove cookies, but you may not be able to use some features or participate in some activities or offers if you block cookies.
A. THIRD PARTY USE OF AUTOMATIC DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES
Some content, features, advertisements and applications on the company websites or online services are served by or linked to third parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers and application providers (including mobile and social media applications).

The information they collect may be associated with Personal Information (as authorized by a visitor) or they may collect information, including Personal Information (as authorized by the visitor), about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services.

B. CALIFORNIA DO-NOT-TRACK DISCLOSURES
Zing Bars uses the information collected through automated data collection technologies (alone or in conjunction with Personal Information) to make the company websites and related online services more useful and more personal to visitors and their individual interests. Therefore, we do not respond to “do not track” requests.
Visitors may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on the visitor’s Internet browser or by using third party do not track technologies. However, if visitors refuse, disable or delete cookies from our websites or related online services (including mobile applications), certain parts or features of our company websites or online services may be inaccessible or not functional.
Unless a visitor has adjusted his or her Internet browser setting so that it will refuse cookies or the visitor uses third party technology to refuse, disable or delete cookies or other automated data collection technologies, your use of Zing Bars websites or online services constitutes consent to the use of automated data collection technologies in connection with company sites and related online services.
