2. How We Use Your Information.
We use the information that we collect to operate and maintain our Site, send you marketing communications (where a user has given their explicit permission), respond to your questions and concerns and to help our service providers improve their online offerings.
(a) Operations: We use the information to operate, maintain, enhance and provide all features of the Service, to provide the services and information that you request, to respond to comments and questions and to provide support to users of the Service.
(b) Improvements: We use the information to understand and analyse the usage trends and preferences of our Site users, to improve the Service, and to develop new products, services, features, and functionality. Should this purpose require Bigpro to process user data, then the data will only be used in anonymised or aggregated form.
(c) Communications: We may use a user’s email address or other information to contact that user (i) for administrative purposes such as customer service, to address intellectual property infringement, right of privacy violations or (ii) with product updates, services and/or news we supply/publish. You have the ability to unsubscribe / opt-out of receiving any promotional communications at any time through an automated online unsubscribe service as detailed in the footer of sent marketing messages and all electronic communications. We don’t rent or trade email lists with other organisations and businesses.
(d) Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We use automatically collected information and other information collected on the Site through cookies and similar technologies to: (i) personalise our Service, such as remembering a user’s information so that the user will not have to re-enter it during a visit or on subsequent visits; (ii) provide customised content, and information; (iii) monitor and analyse the effectiveness of the Site and third-party marketing activities; (iv) monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as total number of visitors and pages viewed; and (v) track your entries, submissions, and status in any promotions or other activities on the Site.
(e) Analytics: We use Google Analytics to measure and evaluate access to and traffic on the Site, and create user navigation reports for our Site administrators. Google operates independently from us and has its own privacy policy, which we strongly suggest you review. Google may use the information collected through Google Analytics to evaluate users’ activity on our Site.
We take measures to protect the technical information collected by our use of Google Analytics. The data collected will only be used on a need to know basis to resolve technical issues, administer the Site and identify visitor preferences; but in this case, the data will be in non-identifiable form. We do not use any of this information to identify visitors or users.
