Information Collected

Grippi Media collects information, including personal information, as part of our provision of the Services. We collect information in the following ways:

Information Provided Directly by You

Grippi Media collects information directly from you when you choose to provide it to us, our clients, or our partners. For example, Grippi Media collects personal information when you choose to submit to us by using the Contact Us form (or similar forms) on the Website, or if you contact us via telephone or social media.

Information Automatically Collected from You

Grippi Media uses various technologies to automatically gather information about users who interact with the advertisements, the Website, the Sites and their content. These technologies include browser cookies, device identifiers, web and mobile beacons, single pixel images, JavaScript tags, and similar technologies to track browsing history and other behavior. We use information collected through these technologies to collect, analyze, and segment data from the Sites and other sources to help us provide more effective advertising.

Due to the variance in privacy laws from place to place, information collected automatically may or may not be considered personal information where you are.

Information Received from Our Clients

Grippi Media receives information, including personal information, from our clients and third parties to perform the Services. Some of the personal information collected has been de-identified or “scrubbed” in order to render it anonymous.

Grippi Media is in compliance with the online industry’s self-regulatory rules pertaining to the collection and use of non-HIPAA related healthcare information. Grippi Media will only collect sensitive health care information when a user consents or opts in to such collection.

How We Use the Information

Grippi Media uses the information it receives for the following purposes:

Marketing of our products and services.
Grippi Media uses the personal information we receive from clients or partners to deliver more relevant marketing communications, and other lawful purposes related to our provision of the Services.
Grippi Media, our third party service providers, our clients, and our partners gather information about users' online activities from their interaction with advertisements, across the Sites and other internet sites or mobile apps, and supplement such information with information from clients or third parties (such as parties that perform web analytics) in order to make inferences about users' consumer and other interests. We then use this information to create customized advertising campaigns for our clients, as well as for other marketing-related purposes.
Grippi Media may combine information with data collected or received from other sources to create a database of consumer and other data (i.e., “aggregated data”), and to use such aggregated data for a variety of purposes, including for unrelated advertising, marketing, and analytical activities.
Grippi Media may use your personal information to respond to inquiries or address any comments you may have.
If you are a customer of Grippi Media, we may use your personal information to create and manage your account, fulfill any contractual obligations we may have with you, or to provide you with information about our Services.

Grippi Media is not responsible for, and, with limited exceptions, does not control, the collection of data from third party sources. If you wish to opt out of the collection of your information by third parties, you must contact those parties directly.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Grippi Media does not sell information.

Grippi Media may share, transfer, and disclose information to business partners, sub-contractors, advertising networks, analytics providers, and search information providers. Grippi Media may also share your information with third party service providers that we use to help us operate our business (such as cloud hosted services like Amazon Web Services) or perform activities on our behalf (such as sending newsletters or surveys).

Grippi Media may share, transfer, and disclose information to third parties with whom Grippi Media contracts to facilitate our provision of the Services and to perform related services such as web analytics and database management. Grippi Media may share information to track the performance and effectiveness of advertising or marketing campaigns, and for determining contractually-owed payments.

Grippi Media does not share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties without your consent. Grippi Media uses personal information for a number of client-authorized purposes, such as reporting on the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and connecting a user’s online information with offline customer data supplied by the client, and customizing the advertisements delivered to those users. Grippi Media also uses the anonymous types of personal information, such as gender and geographic location, in connection with marketing to other users.

Data Security

Grippi Media takes steps to maintain the security of its network and protect the online and other information in our possession, during both data collection and data storage. For example, our servers are protected by reasonable physical and electronic security measures. Since the internet is not a 100% secure environment, the storage and communication of personal information can never be completely secure. There is a potential that a third party not under the control of Grippi Media may unlawfully intercept or access data, including personal information. We therefore cannot and do not guarantee or warrant that information that you transmit to us, or any communications conducted on or through the Website, is or will be totally secure. You acknowledge and assume the risk when communicating with us that security of your online information may be compromised.

You may change your privacy preferences regarding the use of cookies and similar technologies through your personal browser. You may set your browser to block certain cookies, require your consent before a cookie is placed in your browser, or block all cookies.

"Do Not Track" Signals

Some web browsers may give you the ability to enable a “Do Not Track” setting that sends a special signal to the websites you encounter while web browsing that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These features are not yet uniform, and Grippi Media does not respond to web or mobile “Do Not Track” signals at this time. If we do so in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy to describe how we respond to such signals.
