processors, such as Wix Payments, Inc. (“Wix Payments”).

Personal Data We Receive Automatically From Your Use of the Service
When you visit, use and interact with the Service, we may receive certain information about your visit, use, or interactions. For example, we may monitor the number of people that visit the Service, peak hours of visits, which page(s) are visited, the domains our visitors come from (e.g.,google.com, yahoo.com, etc.), and which browsers people use to access the Service (e.g., Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, etc.), and geographical location information. In particular, the following information may be created and automatically logged in our systems:

2. COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

We use cookies to operate and administer our Service, gather usage data on our Service and improve your experience on it. A “cookie” is a piece of information sent to your browser by a website you visit. Cookies can be stored on your computer for different periods of time. Some cookies expire after a certain amount of time, or upon logging out (session cookies), others survive after your browser is closed until a defined expiration date set in the cookie (as determined by the third party placing it), and help recognize your computer when you open your
browser and browse the Internet again (persistent cookies). For more details on cookies please visit All About Cookies.

Analytics
We may use certain third-party analytics providers, including Wix Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Wix Inc., and Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the Service and enhance your experience when you use the Service.

Online Tracking and Do Not Track Signals
We and our third-party service providers may use cookies, pixels, or other tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing activities over time and across different websites following your use of the Service and use that information to send targeted advertisements. Our Service currently does not respond to “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signals and operates as described in this Privacy Policy whether or not a DNT signal is received. If we do respond to DNT signals in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy to describe how we do so.

3. PAYMENT PROCESSORS

Currently, we use Wix Payments as our payment processor to process payments from you for any charges incurred in connection with your accounts when using the Platform. When you make a payment, you will be providing your information directly to our payment processor and not to us. Our payment processor will process the payment and then share with us limited data related to such transaction. The processing of payments is subject to the privacy policies of the payment processor.
