Lookalike Audiences

For advertising purposes, we occasionally use information about our customers to generate a “lookalike audience” or similar audience of prospective customers through the Facebook or Google advertising platforms. This allows us to target advertisements on their networks to potential customers who appear to have shared interests or similar demographics to our existing customers, based on the platforms’ own data.

We typically do this by uploading a list of email addresses. Facebook’s policy is to encrypt such lists prior to uploading, match encrypted data against their own customers, generate the lookalike audience, then delete the uploaded list and use it for no other purpose. We do not have access to the identity of anyone in the lookalike audience, unless they choose to click on the ads.

If you wish to opt of “similar audiences” in Google, you may do so through your Ads Settings. 

How We Protect Your Information

We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, theft,  and disclosure. We use industry standard physical, electronic, and organizational safeguards to protect your personal information. We employ many different security techniques to protect your data.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website. You can help keep your data safe by taking reasonable steps to protect your personal information against unauthorized disclosure or misuse.

Data Breaches

Should we become aware of any breaches of security (either on our server or with one of the third parties we employ) that may have exposed your personal information, we shall notify you as soon as reasonably possible about the breach and let you know what information might have been exposed.
