Information Collection and Use
It is not necessary to provide GoInvest with your personally identifiable information to use the GoInvest Websites, and unless you subscribe to a GoInvest newsletter, GoInvest does not collect personally identifiable information in connection with the operation of the GoInvest Websites. If you contact GoInvest by email through the GoInvest Websites, GoInvest may keep a record of your contact information and correspondence, and may use your email address, and any information that you provide to GoInvest in your message, to respond to you. GoInvest treats this information as it would treat any other unsolicited business correspondence, and has no obligation to keep this information confidential, nor to take any security measures to protect this information.
If you subscribe to a GoInvest newsletter, you will need to provide us with your email address. We will use the email address you provide to us to subscribe to our newsletter(s) to send you the newsletter(s), marketing or promotional opportunities from us and our partners we believe may interest you, and certain administrative communications regarding the newsletters. We will not sell or rent your email address to anyone else for their marketing. You may unsubscribe from any or all of our newsletters or marketing communications at any time using the link provided in the email, and we will delete your email address from our records.
When you visit a GoInvest Website, GoInvest’s servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website (“Log Data”). This Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type or the domain from which you are visiting. For most users accessing the Internet from an Internet service provider, the IP address will be different every time you log on. GoInvest uses Log Data to monitor use of the GoInvest Websites and the services we offer via the GoInvest Websites and for the GoInvest Website’s technical administration.
Cookies and Other Analytic Tools
Like many websites, GoInvest Websites also use “cookie” technology to collect additional website usage data and to improve the GoInvest Website and the services offered via the Web Site. A cookie is a small data file that GoInvest’s servers transfer to your computer’s hard disk. GoInvest may also use tracking pixels. Tracking pixels are small graphic images, which are used in email messages to determine whether the messages were opened and the links were clicked, or are used on the GoInvest Websites to collect information about the browser and device viewing the GoInvest Websites. GoInvest does not use cookies or tracking pixels to collect personally identifiable information.
GoInvest mainly uses “session cookies”, which enable certain features of the GoInvest Websites and services offered via the GoInvest Websites, to better understand how you interact with the Web Site and services we offer via the GoInvest Websites, to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the GoInvest Websites, and to improve the GoInvest Websites and services offered via the GoInvest Websites. Session cookies should be deleted from your computer when you disconnect from or leave the GoInvest Websites.
GoInvest also uses a persistent cookie on some of the GoInvest Websites that stays on your computer for a period of time after you leave the GoInvest Websites, for the sole purpose of ensuring that, where rating, voting, or survey functions are available, you do not participate more than once.
Third Party Advertisers
GoInvest Websites includes advertising from third party advertisers. GoInvest does not provide any personally identifiable information to these advertisers.
Third party advertisers, or companies working on their behalf, may serve directly to your browser the advertisements that appear on the GoInvest Websites, which allows them to receive Log Data (as defined above). They may also use cookies, JavaScript, tracking pixels and other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content. GoInvest does not control any third party advertiser tracking or measurement technologies, and the information practices of third party advertisers are not covered by this Privacy Policy. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices.
Our advertising partners may include Facebook and Twitter. Facebook allows its users to control advertising on the Facebook platform. Instructions are here: https://www.facebook.com/help/568137493302217. Twitter allows its users to control advertising and cookie preferences on the Twitter service. Instructions are here: https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-cookies.
