1.4 Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Info Collected Using Technology.
AI Innovation Forge currently uses cookie and web beacon technology to associate certain Internet-related information about an individual with information about the individual in our database. Additionally, AI Innovation Forge may use other new and evolving sources of information in the future (together, “Technology Information”).
(a) Cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data stored on the hard drive of the individual’s computer that allows AI Innovation Forge to identify the individual with his or her corresponding data that resides in AI Innovation Forge . database. You may read more about cookies at http://cookiecentral.com. Individuals who use the Website need to accept cookies in order to use all of the features and functionality of the Website.
(b) Web Beacons. A web beacon is programming code that can be used to display an image on a web page (by using an <img src=”x”> programming function — see http://truste.org for more information), but can also be used to transfer an individual’s unique user identification (often in the form of a cookie) to a database and associate the individual with previously acquired information about an individual in a database. This allows AI Innovation Forge to track certain web sites an individual visit online. Web beacons are used to determine products or services an individual may be interested in, and to track online behavioral habits for marketing purposes. For example, AI Innovation Forge might place, with the consent of a Third-Party website, a web beacon on the Third Party’s website where baseball products are sold. When Joe, an individual listed in AI Innovation Forge . database, visits the fishing website, AI Innovation Forge receives notice by means of the web beacon that Joe visited the baseball site, and AI Innovation Forge would then update Joe’s profile with the information that Joe is interested in baseball. AI Innovation Forge may thereafter present offers of baseball related products and services to Joe. In addition to using web beacons on web pages, AI Innovation Forge also uses web beacons in email messages sent to individuals listed in AI Innovation Forge . database.
