SECTION 4 – COOKIES and THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Cookies: We may use "cookie" technology for such purposes as enhancing your online experience by making it easier for you to navigate through the Sites and making certain features work better. Cookies are text files which are commonly deposited by websites on a user's hard drive when the user visits a website. The file identifies a user's computer and can record the user's preferences and other data about the user's website visit. We do not extract information about individual users during this process. Your web browser may enable you to disable cookies, but please note that certain services may not function correctly without it and your experience on our Sites may be hindered.
Third Party Cookies: We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet. These companies may collect and use information about your visits to this and other websites and your interaction with our products and services in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. However, no personally identifiable information (such as your name, address, email address or telephone number) will be connected with such information. They may use information about your visits to this and other websites to target advertisements for goods and services and may be used to keep track of user response to each advertisement. These targeted advertisements may appear on our Websites or on other sites that you visit. The anonymous information is collected through the use of a pixel tag or cookies, which are industry standard technologies used by most major websites. If you do not want such companies to collect this information you may opt-out.
To learn more about the use of this information or choose not to have this information used by certain third-party advertising partners, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices. Please note that if you delete your cookies, use a different browser, or buy a new computer, you will need to renew your opt-out choice.
In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform certain services they provide to us. Certain third-party services, such as payment gateways and other transaction or payment processors are required to abide by security standards imposed on them, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), which is a set of security standards designed to ensure that all payment processors that accept, process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. All direct payment gateways we utilize adhere to PCI-DSS, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover, to safeguard card data handling.
Whilst we shall not store your credit card information, such payment gateways and other transaction or payment processors, under PCI-DSS, may store your purchase transaction data for only as long as is necessary to complete the transaction and thereafter for only as long as it is required by law.
Such third-party payment gateways and other payment transaction processors and other third parties have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So, if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
Once you leave our Site or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.
SECTION 5 - PAYMENT
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then we will store your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data, including subscription payments if applicable, is stored only to the extent necessary to process your purchase transaction, which is automatically renewed on a monthly basis.
Automatic renewal of your purchase transactions, including the purchase transaction data connected to them, may be cancelled at any time by contacting us at email address support@buyveravida.com
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our Site and its service providers.

Information and content parents and children provide. We collect the content and information children and their parents or guardians provide and generate when registering for and using our Website and Apps.
Registration Information. This includes information parents or guardians provide when they create an account for a child, such as the child’s full name and any account login details (such as a username or password), and additional information their parent or guardian provides about them, such as their gender or birthday. We also collect information about your child’s connection to you and the consents and information you provide to approve your child’s account and activity.

This includes, for example, information about the operating system, hardware version, device settings, device identifiers, and connection information such as the name of the mobile operator or ISP, language and time zone, and IP address.
How do we use this information?
We are able to deliver, support, and enhance our Websites or Apps by using this information. We also use the information to evaluate, improve, and create product features, conduct research to develop new products, and conduct audits and troubleshooting activities.
We also use the information we have to provide parents or guardians of children using our Websites or Apps with updates about our Websites or Apps and information about our policies, practices, and terms. We may also use this information to respond when parents or guardians contact us.
Likewise, we use the information collected to help promote safety on and off our Websites or Apps, including to help verify accounts and activity, and to look into suspicious activity or violations of our terms or policies. We do this in a variety of ways, including through human staff, automated systems, and machine learning.
How is this information shared?
Parents and guardians have control over whom their children can connect and communicate with using our Websites or Apps. Children use our Websites or Apps to share information with parent- or guardian-approved family and friends who are using our Websites or Apps. These approved friends and family can see profile information about and content received from a child they are connected with. This can include the child’s name, username, and photos or other content the child shares with that friend or family member. We may also share disclose the information described above to and through the items enumerated in Section 3 hereof.
How can parents manage or delete their child’s information?
Through their child’s account on our Websites or Apps, a parent or guardian can review and edit their child’s profile information and remove contacts to prevent further communication with their child on our Websites or Apps. In addition, a parent or guardian who has authorized our Websites or Apps can see their child’s interactions by accessing their child’s account. In order to stop further collection and use of their child’s personal information on our Websites or Apps, a parent or guardian can delete their child’s account. If you delete your child’s account, we will delete their registration information, information about their activity and contacts, and device information. However, the information your child sent to and received from others before their account was deleted may remain visible to those users.
Reporting Suspicious Activity
We provide a reporting tool for your child to use when needed. Through their account on our Websites or Apps, your child can report inappropriate content (including harassing, bullying, sexual or violent content) or suspicious activity (for example, if they think someone else is impersonating their friend or family member) and immediately block the offending individual on our Websites or Apps. If your child reports an issue, we will notify you that they did so. You can also report concerns or suspicious activity through your own account on our Websites or Apps.
How do we respond to legal requests or prevent harm?
We may access, preserve and share your child’s information in response to a legal request (like a search warrant, court order or subpoena) if we have a good faith belief that the law requires us to do so. This may include responding to legal requests from jurisdictions outside of the United States where we have a good faith belief that the response is required by law in that jurisdiction, affects people in that jurisdiction, and is consistent with internationally recognized standards. We may also access, preserve and share information when we have a good faith belief it is necessary to: detect, prevent and address fraud and other illegal activity; to protect ourselves, children and others, including as part of investigations; or to prevent death or imminent bodily harm. Information may be accessed, processed and retained for an extended period of time when it is the subject of a legal request or obligation, governmental investigation, or investigations concerning possible violations of our terms or policies, or otherwise to prevent harm.
