Please be aware that whenever You voluntarily disclose Personal Information online, the information You post becomes public and can be collected and used by others and indexed in search engines.
- User ID and Password Information. Adwhizz processes Advertiser’ user ID and password information to enable them to log into and use the Service. Adwhizz processes this Personal Information only as necessary to provide the Service to You under the Agreement. In the event You are able to log into the Site or Service through a social networking site (e.g., Facebook or Twitter), Adwhizz may receive Personal Information in accordance with the privacy policy of that site, which Adwhizz may add to Personal Information You have previously provided.
- IP Address and Header Information. Adwhizz automatically collects certain information when You visit our Site, such as IP address and Header Information. “Header Information” is information such as browser type, geolocation, operating system, language, screen resolution, referring URL, etc. provided to our web server by your browser. Adwhizz has a legitimate interest in using such information to assist in log-in, systems administration purposes, information security and abuse prevention, and to track user trends.
- Traffic Data. Like their Advertiser, Adwhizz uses the Service to generate useful insights about its website’s visitors’ use of the Site. Adwhizz uses the data generated and collected (“Traffic Data”) from the Service (described below) to further our legitimate business interests in analyzing the effectiveness of the Site and Service, so Adwhizz can improve the look, function and content of the Site and.

You can opt-out of commercial emails any time by following the process set forth in Section 6.
- Personal Information Collected from the Service.Adwhizz processes Personal Information collected from the Service on behalf of Adwhizz Advertiser. Advertiser are responsible for determining the purposes and lawful basis for the processing of their Personal Information. Adwhizz strongly advises members of the public to review privacy notices on any Customer website to determine what information is collected and how it is processed by that Customer website. As a visitor of one of the Adwhizz Customer websites, Adwhizz may collect the following categories of Personal Information through the Service:
- Traffic Data. As part of the Service, Adwhizz collects information relating to traffic on the Customer’s website(s), such as; pages visited, the visitor’s mouse movements and clicks, keystroke data, HTML data on a page visited by a visitor if such HTML data includes Personal Information (collectively, “TrafficData”). Adwhizz uses Traffic Data to provide Advertiser with real-time analytics and uptime monitoring. Although Adwhizz encourages Advertiser to process Personal Information responsibly and provide features intended to minimize the impact of the Service on visitor’s privacy, Adwhizz does not have control over how Advertiser use Traffic Data. For example, Advertiser have the ability to link Traffic Data with available Personal Information (e.g., account information You have provided them). As another example, although Adwhizz may implement features that enable its Advertiser to create profiles of individual visitors, the Customer—and not Adwhizz—determines whether to use that profiling information for targeted advertising or other purposes. Advertiser have the ability to configure the Service to change the amount and type of Traffic Data collected on the Advertiser’ websites. For example, by default, Adwhizz disables the collection of keystroke data on Advertiser’ websites. Keystroke data is only captured if the Customer changes this default setting to enable keystroke collection, and even then only for each text field that the Customer has explicitly authorized keystroke collection. As another example, Adwhizz allows Advertiser to scramble the text within any HTML data processed by the Service. When this feature is enabled, Adwhizz renders any Personal Information within HTML data undecipherable through scrambling. For more information on the manner in which Adwhizz Advertiser have implemented the Service on their websites, Adwhizz recommends that You review such Advertiser’ individually posted privacy policies.
- IP Address and Header Information. Through the Service, Advertiser collect and use IP address and Header Information from visitors when they browse their websites. Adwhizz processes your IP address to help a Customer identify your internet service provider and the geolocation from which You are accessing the Customer website. Adwhizz processes Header Information on behalf of its Advertiser to determine which websites originated traffic into Customer Websites, the type of browser You are using, and information about your device and operating system. These details are useful to Advertiser to help them identify issues with and improve their websites. To help protect your privacy, Adwhizz allow Advertiser to enable IP address masking, which is a feature that removes the last three digits of your IP address before storing it on the Adwhizz servers.
- Derived Data. All of the data Adwhizz collects through the Service, including Personal Information, relates to a visitor’s use of a single Customer website. Adwhizz does not track visitors across Customer websites. However, Adwhizz does aggregate (i.e., combine your data with the data of others to create a statistical summary that removes all personally identifiable information) Traffic Data to further our legitimate interests in providing statistical benchmarking data and vertical-driven insights to the Adwhizz Advertiser. This data, when stripped of all personally identifiable information in combination with the data of others to create a statistical summary, is identified as Derived Data (as defined in the Terms of Service)
