Third-Party Use of Personal Information

Off-Script may share your information with third parties when you explicitly authorize us to share your information.

Additionally, the Website may use third-party service providers to service various aspects of the Website. Each third-party service provider’s use of your personal information is dictated by their respective privacy policies. The Website currently uses the following third-party service providers:

• Google Analytics, MonsterInsights, Tailwind & WordPress: These services track Website usage or usage on certain affiliate properties (such as Instagram or Pinterest) and provide information such as referring websites and user actions. They may capture your account names or identifiers (if provided) and IP address. Google does use your personal information such as your IP address in order to capture reporting for the Website. Instead, Google Analytics places a cookie with a randomly generated Client ID on your browser. You may opt-out of Google Analytics through a Browser Add-on, which is available here.
• MailChimp: This service is used for delivery of email updates and newsletters. Off-Script/MailChimp stores your name and email address for purposes of delivering such communications.

• Askimet & SiteLock: These services are used to protect Off-Script and its visitors from illegal, harmful, or spam-like activities.

At this time, your personal information is not shared with any other third-party applications. This list may be amended from time to time at the Website’s sole discretion.

Except when required by law, Off-Script will not sell, distribute, or reveal your email addresses or other personal information without your consent; however, Off-Script may disclose or transfer personal information collected through the Website to third parties who acquire all or a portion of our business, which may be the result of a merger, consolidation, or purchase of all or a portion of our assets, or in connection with any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding brought by or against us.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles on Off-Script may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Publicly Visible Information

If you create a user profile on the Website or leave a comment, certain information may be publicly visible.

Cookies

The Website uses cookies to store visitors’ preferences, record user-specific information on what pages users access or visit, and customize Website content based on visitors’ browser type or other information that the visitor sends. Cookies may also be used by third-party services, such as Google Analytics, as described herein.

Users may, at any time, prevent the setting of cookies, by the Website, by using a corresponding setting of your internet browser and may thus permanently deny the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. However, if users deactivate the setting of cookies in your Internet browser, not all functions of our Website may be entirely usable.

Anonymous Data

From time to time, Off-Script may use anonymous data, which does not identify you alone, or when combined with data from other parties. This type of anonymous data may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses. Examples of this anonymous data may include analytics or information collected from cookies.

Advertising

Third Party: Off-Script does not actively invite third parties to advertise on our Website via display ads, sponsored content, or affiliate program participation. In the past, Off-Script was a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising links to Amazon.com. As part of the Amazon Associates program, the Website posted customized links, provided by Amazon, to track the referrals to their website. This program utilizes cookies to track visits for the purposes of assigning commission on these sales. All of these links have been de-activated.

Retargeting Ads: From time to time, the Website may engage in remarketing efforts with third-party companies, such as Google, Pinterest, Facebook, or Instagram, in order to market the Website. These companies use cookies to serve ads based on someone’s past visits to the Website. This means, after visiting the Website, you may see an ad for our products and services. However, your personally identifiable information is not used by any remarketing service other than to present you offers from the Website. We may use the following third-party service providers for remarketing:

Facebook: Opt-out of Facebook remarketing here
Google: Opt-out of Google remarketing here
Pinterest: Opt-out of Pinterest remarketing here

Newsletters: On the Website, you may subscribe to our newsletter, which may be used for advertising purposes. All newsletters sent may contain tracking pixels. The pixel is embedded in emails and allows an analysis of the success of online marketing campaigns. Because of these tracking pixels, we may see if and when you open an email and which links within the email you click. Also, this allows the Website to adapt the content of future newsletters to the interests of the user. This behavior will not be passed on to third parties.

Sensitive Personal Information

At no time should you submit sensitive personal information to this Website. This includes your social security number, information regarding race or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health information, criminal background, or trade union memberships. If you elect to submit such information to us, it will be subject to this Privacy Policy.
