Site Owner may place code (a “Pixel Tag”) on Site Owner’s Third-Party Site that is used to gather relevant information about the visitor to the site (each a “Visitor”) to assist Site Owner in reaching its customers and intended audiences. WVI grants Site Owner a nontransferable, non-exclusive license to the data received from the use of the WVI Services (“Licensed Data”).

Additionally, in jurisdictions that require informed consent for the storing and accessing of cookies or other information on an end user’s device (such as the European Union), Site Owner must ensure, in a verifiable manner, that an end user provides the necessary consent before using Pixel Tags to enable us to store and access cookies or other information on the end user’s device. Site Owner must provide Visitors a link to Site Owner’s privacy policy and the opportunity for Visitors to “opt out” or disable Pixel Tags.

Third-Party Pixels and Cookies
Notwithstanding anything else in this policy, we and/or our partners may use pixels and pixel tags, and place, read, or use cookies that collect information from your device and/or Internet browser. These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information; however, it may be possible for our third-party business partners to combine the cookie information with other information to identify your email address or other information about you. For example, the cookies may reflect de-identified demographic or other data linked to data you have voluntarily submitted to us, e.g., your email address, which we may share with a data provider solely in hashed, non-human readable form. Visitors may also express their choices for display advertising, through the following platforms: Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out platform or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out platform.
We and/or our partners may also use cookies for delivering personalized advertising emails. These cookies are used to identify the visitors of our advertisers’ websites and send personalized emails based on the visitors’ browsing experience.
We and/or our partners use cookies, pixels, and other tracking technology to associate certain Internet-related information about you, such as your Internet Protocol address and what web browser you are using, with certain of your online behaviors, such as opening emails or browsing websites. Such information is used to customize ads or content and may be shared with our partners.
Pixel Services: In addition to Site Owner obligations and use restrictions hereunder, the terms in this Section apply to the Pixel Services. Site Owner will place code (a “Pixel Tag”) on Site Owner’s or Site Owner’s clients’ websites (“Site”) that is used to gather relevant information about the visitor to the Site (each a “User”) to assist Site Owner and Site Owner’s customers in reaching their respective customers and their intended audiences. Site Owner will fire the Pixel Tag when it wishes to receive information about the User from WVI. When WVI detects the Pixel Tag has been fired, WVI will attempt to identify the User who visited the Site, and, if it can identify the User, WVI will send information about the User (“User Data”) to Site Owner as a part of the Services. WVI may use data observed by the Pixel Tag to improve WVI’s products and services. All technology used in the Pixel Tag and all User Data provided by WVI shall remain the exclusive property of WVI. Each party gives the other permission to use its proprietary material solely pursuant to the licenses set forth herein.
WVI hereby grants to Site Owner a nontransferable (except as may be sublicensed to Clients), non-exclusive license to the data received from the use of the Pixel Services (“Licensed Data”). Site Owner and Clients shall use the Licensed Data for marketing and management purposes only and shall not transfer possession, right or title of or to such data to its clients or any third parties for any other purpose whatsoever. Site Owner shall not, and shall cause Clients to not, use or permit the use of the Licensed Data: (i) in violation of any applicable laws, statutes, rules or regulations including, but not limited to, all applicable “do not call,” “do not mail,” Direct Marketing Association guidelines, and similar do not solicit federal, state, county and local regulations; (ii) to violate the rights of others (including without limitation privacy rights); or (iii) in the development of any data products or services to be provided to third parties including, without limitation, any list enhancement or data appending service or product. If Site Owner receives consumer “lifestyle” data with the Licensed Data, such lifestyle data shall not be used in connection with any telemarketing activities. WVI reserves the right to suspend the Services (or a portion thereof) without notice in the event the Site Owner’s use of the Pixel Services is in violation of this section, and to terminate this Agreement for repeated violations of this section.
Site Owner shall, throughout the term of this Agreement, maintain on its Site(s), mobile applications or other digital platforms or assets of Site Owner, a privacy policy which, along with complying with all Laws (as defined below), specifically inform Users of the placement of Pixel Tags, and inform Users of the intended use of the data obtained therefrom, all as contemplated by this Agreement. Site Owner shall, at all times, comply with all data and privacy laws applicable to the obligations and use terms set forth in this Agreement including, without limitation, providing Users a link to Site Owner’s privacy policy and the opportunity for Users to “opt out” or disable Pixel Tags. Site Owner shall only post Pixel Tags on Sites owned by Site Owner or Site Owner’s clients and, in any event, products. Site Owner may only use User Data as set forth in this Agreement.
Site Owner and its services providers shall use industry-standard security measures, compliant with all applicable Laws to protect the User Data from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, modification, destruction and/or loss during storage or transmission, and from unauthorized storage, re-identification or association with personally identifiable information. In the event of any suspected incident involving User Data that could result in the compromise of the protections described above, Site Owner shall promptly notify WVI and provide all available information, and shall cooperate with WVI’s reasonable requests in connection with investigating and remediating any such incident. As used in the Section, “Laws” shall mean any federal, state, local, foreign or supra-national laws, regulations, rules, directives, ordinances, orders and judgements, including, without limitation, all Federal Trade Commission rules, regulations and staff reports, as well as (to the extent applicable) the EU Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC), any rules promulgated thereunder, and any self-regulatory guidelines relating to digital advertising.

The uses set forth in this Section, as well as the placement of Pixel Tags, may be undertaken by third parties such as Site Owner’s suppliers or data partners. Site Owner shall remain liable to WVI for all actions undertaken by such suppliers and/or data partners. Site Owner, or service providers, may facilitate the Services on behalf of a client, provided, however, that Site Owner’s clients shall, at no time, possess the User Data. Site Owner shall be liable to WVI for any use of the Services or User Data by service providers that is not authorized by this Agreement.
Site Owner may use the User Data to provide marketing services to their customers, Including triggering email advertisements to Users’ email addresses. Site Owner shall not send emails to Users who have “opted out” of receiving email ads. Site Owner may not sell, license or otherwise transfer or make available the User Data to any third party except to third parties who are acting as service providers to Site Owner and are using the User Data solely on behalf of Site Owner.
If User Data includes email addresses, Site Owner acknowledges that if Site Owner will be emailing marketing solicitations regarding products prohibited by law to be advertised to or used by minors, applicable law may require suppression processing to be run against Site Owner’s files in order to suppress all email addresses accessible to minors from such marketing solicitations. Site Owner warrants that Site Owner will apply such suppression processing as required by law prior to utilizing email address data provided herein. Site Owner will indemnify and hold WVI, its agents and employees harmless from and against any claim, action or liability (including damages, costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees), that may arise against WVI as a result of Site Owner’s failure to comply with the foregoing requirement.
