Analytics
Active Collection. We collect certain information you voluntarily provide to us, such as when you create an account or profile, send us an email, order services, pay for services, provide or request information, or post reviews, comments, or other content on the Service. The information we collect may include personal information, such as your name, user name, social network information, credit or debit card information, and demographic information.

Passive Collection. When you use the Service, some information may also be automatically collected, such as your internet protocol (IP) address, your operating system, browser type, the address of a referring Web site, and your activity on the Service. We treat this information as personal information if we combine it with or link it to any of the identifying information mentioned above. Otherwise, it is used in the aggregate only.
We may also automatically collect certain information through the use of "cookies" or web beacons. Cookies are small data files stored on your device at the request of a Web site. A web beacon may, for example, take the form of a small, invisible graphic image that may be used on the site or in emails relating to the Service to collect certain information and monitor user activity.
