  • Measuring website traffic
  • Optimizing website content
  • Improving your experience 

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the information associated with a user profile is used, maintained, and disclosed in accordance with the restrictions in our other agreement and this Privacy Policy, including any obligations around confidentiality and third-party disclosures.

The information associated with your user profile may be used to understand and analyze the usage of the site, and for the purposes of marketing our products and services to you. In particular, the AdTech may automatically generate and send email marketing communications to you (to the extent you have provided your email address as part of your interactions with the site and/or the company associated with the site).

5. Your Data Choices

We offer everyone in the U.S. (as well as Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands) choices about their personal data. Please note that your choices may vary depending on the laws that apply to where you are located. 

A. Opt-In/Opt-Out

The AdTech is enabled by default to provide a quality consumer experience. The AdTech gathers information about the user’s hardware and software configurations to identify the user each visit and associate the user with their existing user profile. Unlike a “cookie,” and except for local storage discussed below, the system does not store a file on the user’s computer. Therefore, the user information gathered is not deleted when the user clears their cache and/or deletes their cookies.

To opt-in or opt-out of the different categories of data collection, please contact us here. 

You may also opt-out of receiving email marketing communications by sending a request here, or by clicking the unsubscribe link on any such email marketing communication you receive.

Please note that clicking the unsubscribe link may only result in your no longer receiving marketing communications generated by the AdTech, you may still receive other email communications from the company associated with the site. 

As noted above, the AdTech may also collect and store information (including personal or sensitive information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage application data caches. Browser web storage enables the site to store data in a browser on a device. When used in “local storage” mode, it enables data to be stored across sessions. Similarly, an application data cache is a data repository on a device. You may stop local storage from being used by modifying your internet browser settings, but stopping local storage may result in the site having impaired or limited functionality.

Furthermore, disabling local storage will not block the AdTech from operating; rather, it will only prevent the AdTech from collecting and storing information locally on your device. To disable the AdTech, see the Opt-Out Instructions above. Further, you should refer to the help provided by your internet browser for the most up-to-date and accurate instructions on disabling local storage. 

B. Browser or platform controls

  • i. Cookie controls. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can go to your browser settings to learn more about how to delete or reject cookies. If you choose to delete or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our website. If you choose to delete cookies, settings, and preferences controlled by these cookies, including advertising preferences, may be deleted and will need to be recreated.  
  • ii. Global Privacy Control. Some browser and browser extensions support the “Global Privacy Control” (“GPC”) or similar controls that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicated your choice to opt-out from certain types of data processing, including data sales and/or targeted advertising, as specified by applicable law. When we detect such a signal, we will make reasonable efforts to respect your choices indicated by a GPC setting or similar control recognized by regulations or otherwise widely acknowledged as a valid opt-out preference signal. 
  • iii. Do Not Track. Some browsers include a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) setting that can send a signal to the websites you visit, indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Unlike the GPC described above, there is no common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal; therefore, our sites do not respond to browser DNT signals. Instead, you can use the range of other tools to control data collection and use, including the GPC, cookie controls, and advertising controls described above.
  • iv. Mobile Advertising ID Controls. iOS and Android operating systems provide options to limit tracking. 
  • v. Email Web Beacons. Most email clients have settings that allow you to prevent the automatic downloading of images, including web beacons, which avoid the automatic connection to the web servers that host those images. 

C. Accessing, Correcting, and Updating Your Personal Information. 

To make a request for the rights described above, please contact us here or email us at privacy@teammmg.com. Please indicate that you are making a request pursuant to your “Utah Privacy Rights” and provide us with the following information: (1) first and last name; (2) email address; and (3) zip code. We will take steps to verify your request by matching the information provided by you with the information we have in our records.

D. Notice and Consent.
