Data Retention

Digital Advertising & Analytics
To assist in marketing of AtData’s services, we may partner with ad networks and other ad serving providers (“Advertising Providers”) that serve ads on behalf of AtData on non-affiliated platforms. Some of those ads may be personalized, meaning that they are intended to be relevant to you based on information Advertising Providers collect about your use of the Site and other sites or apps over time, including information about relationships among different browsers and devices. This type of advertising is known as interest-based advertising.
You may visit the DAA Webchoices tool at https://youradchoices.com/ to learn more about this type of advertising and how to opt out of this advertising on websites by companies participating in the DAA self-regulatory program. You can also exercise choices regarding interest-based advertising on your mobile device by downloading the appropriate version of the DAA’s AppChoices tool at https://youradchoices.com/appchoices. You may also exercise opt-out choices through companies participating in the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out tools at https://optout.networkadvertising.org/.
Additionally, you may click here to opt-out of AtData’s sharing of information about you with partners and customers for marketing purposes.
If you browse the web from multiple browsers or devices, you will need to opt out from each browser and/or device. Similarly, if you use a new device, change browsers or delete all of your cookies, you need to exercise your choices again. Note that electing to opt out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications. It may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests.
We may also work with third parties that collect data about your use of the Site and other sites or apps over time for non-advertising purposes. AtData uses Google Analytics and other third-party services to improve the performance of the Site and for analytics and marketing purposes. For more information about how Google Analytics collects and uses data when you use our Site, visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and to opt out of Google Analytics, visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Your browser may also offer tools to limit the use of cookies or to delete cookies. However, if you disable the use of cookies in your web browser, some features of our Site and other services may be difficult to use or become inoperable.
Your Choices
To opt out of our email marketing, you can use the link provided at the bottom of each marketing message. If you opt out of our email marketing, we will still send you messages related to our transactions and relationship with you, such as order confirmations.
You also may request access to the personal data that we hold about you. If you wish to make such a request, please visit our Privacy Portal page here. When you make such a request, we will request that you reasonably verify your identity.
