DIGITAL ADVERTISING & ANALYTICS

We may partner with social media tools, ad networks and other ad serving providers (“Advertising Providers”) that serve ads on our behalf on non-affiliated platforms. These Advertising Providers may use tracking technologies (including cookies and pixel tags) on our Website and other sites and apps in order to serve these ads. Some of those ads may be personalized, meaning that they are intended to be relevant to you based on information Advertising Providers collect about your use of the Website and other sites or apps over time (such as web pages you visit and your interaction with our advertising and other communications), including information about relationships among different browsers and devices. This type of advertising is known as interest-based advertising.

SU2C adheres to the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Principles and to the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada’s (“DAAC”) Self-Regulatory Principles in connection with this interest-based advertising activity. You may visit the DAA choice page at www.aboutads.info/choices or the Network Advertising Initiative choice page at optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1 and, in Canada, you may visit youradchoices.ca/choices, to learn more about this type of advertising and how to opt out of this type of advertising on your browser by companies participating in industry self-regulatory programs.

Your opt-out only applies to the web browser you use so you must opt-out of each web browser on each device that you use. Note that opting out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications. It may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests. Additionally, your browser may offer tools to limit the use of cookies or to delete cookies; however, if you use these tools, our Website may not function as intended.
