all information that we gather about you, including your personal information, to our related companies;
any information that we gather about you to third party service providers for the purposes of providing the Services to you;
aggregated or anonymized data and other information that does not personally identify you to third parties;

for authorizing and processing credit card transactions which you enter into online;
to assist in providing the products and services requested by you;
to provide further information to you about suppliers or other websites, products, and services, which we consider may be of interest to you;

Content Providers, Advertisers, and Partners

We do not control the practices of content providers, partners and advertisers connected with our sites and to whom you provide personal information whilst using one of our sites or services. Our sites contain links to other sites, which may not follow the same privacy policies as us. We recommend that you check any relevant privacy policies before providing your personal information to any third party.

Cookies and Tracking

We may collect information about the computer, mobile telephone, smartphone or other devices that you use to access our Services. Where you allow our mobile services and products to deliver content based on your location (by enabling this feature on your mobile device) we may collect location data. This information is used only for the provision of relevant Services to you and for no other purpose.

We may use a cookie file containing information that can identify the computer you are working from. The cookie file is anonymous as it only gives us details of your IP address, device platform (Windows, Linux, Mac OS, iOS or Android), browser (e.g. Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or other, plus the version of browser) and domain (whether you are accessing the Services from NZ or elsewhere).

We may use the information generated by “cookies” to:

track traffic patterns to and from our Services such as the pages you visit, the time you spend on each page, the date and time of your visit, and referring pages (pages you came from or go to);
ensure advertising or communications are being shown to the most appropriate person; and
enable you to use certain services as a registered user without having to log on each time and to visit registered user only areas of the site.
We may allow third-party companies to serve ads and/or collect certain information when you and other Internet users visit our Websites. These companies may use non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) and precise geolocation and user device identification (if you have provided your consent to us) during your visits to this site and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you. These companies typically use a cookie or other technology to collect this information. To learn more about this interest-based advertising practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit  http://networkadvertising.org. Third-party companies may also use your non-personal information collected in this way in aggregated form or for statistical purposes.

You can choose to refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser and/or deleting them from your hard drive. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use our websites, but you may need them for customizable areas of sites we may develop in the future.

Analytics

We use various app, web and/or email analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics) to collect information through the Services (e.g. the number of visitors per day or the average amount of time spent on the Services). These tools assist us in analyzing the performance of our Services and advertising effectiveness and optimizing the Services for readers and marketers Emails we send to you may also include a code that measures or determine what you do when you receive it and whether you respond. The information we collect through the use of such analytics tools is anonymous and is not personal to you.  Further information about Google Analytics and the way in which it collects and uses data can be found at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners.
