6. Our Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Mechanisms

We and our service providers use cookies and other tracking mechanisms to track information about your use of our Site or Services. We may combine this information with additional personal information we collect from you (and our service providers may do so on our behalf). We use cookies for functional purposes only (i.e., to support the proper working of our Site and Services) and do not use cookies for advertising or profiling purposes.

Cookies. Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers we transfer to your device’s hard drive through your web browser for record-keeping purposes. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our Site and Services, while others are used to enable a faster log-in process or to allow us to track your activities at our Site and Service. There are two types of cookies: session and persistent cookies.

  • Session Cookies. Session cookies exist only during an online session. They disappear from your device when you close your browser or turn off your device. We use session cookies to allow our systems to uniquely identify you during a session or while you are logged into the Site and Services. This allows us to process your online transactions and requests and verify your identity after you have logged in as you move through our Site and Services.
  • Persistent Cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device after closing your browser or turning off your device. We use persistent cookies to track aggregate and statistical information about user activity.

7. Disabling Cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser options to block them in the future. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to our Site and Services who disable cookies can browse certain areas of the Site, but some features may not function properly.

8. Third-Party Analytics. We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate the usage of our Site. We use these tools to help us improve our Site’s performance and user experiences.

9. Do-Not-Track. Currently, our systems do not recognize browser “do-not-track” requests. You may, however, disable certain tracking as discussed in this section (e.g., by disabling cookies).

10. User-Generated Content

We invite you to post content on our Site and Services, including your comments, pictures, and any other information you would like to be available on our Site or Services. If you post content to our Site or Services, the information you post will be available to all visitors. If you post your own content on our Site or Services, your posting may become public, and PM cannot prevent such information from being used by third parties.

11. Third-Party Links

Our Site and Services may contain links to third-party websites. Any access to, and use of, such linked websites is not governed by this Policy but instead is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites. We are not responsible for the information practices of such third-party websites.

12. Security of Personal Information

We have implemented reasonable precautions to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware that despite our best efforts, no data security measures can guarantee security.

You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your password, phone, and computer. You can do so by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, choosing a robust password that nobody else knows or can easily guess, and keeping your log-in and password private. We are not responsible for any lost, stolen, or compromised passwords or for any activity on your account via unauthorized password activity.

13. Access to Personal Information

You may modify the personal information that you have submitted by logging into your account and updating your profile information. Please note that copies of information that you have updated, modified, or deleted may remain viewable in cached and archived pages of the Site for some time.

14. Additional Privacy Rights under GDPR

  • The right to access your personal information;
  • The right to rectify the personal information we hold about you;

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, you may submit a request to us using our Contact Us form and include “GDPR Privacy Request” in the message box. Please understand, however, that the rights enumerated above are not absolute in all cases.

When you submit a GDPR request, we may request additional information from you to confirm your identity.
