Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or data storage solution can ever be completely secure.

A.

Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address or other PII unless you choose to provide this information to us. Once you choose to provide PII, however, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie. Although it may be possible to turn off the collection of cookies through your device or browser, certain features of the Services may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

We also use certain Firebase services from Google in order to provide notifications and derive application behavioral analytics, which we use to see how users interact with our App.  Firebase is part of the Google Cloud Platform and offers a number of services for developers, and we use the following in our Service:

• Firebase Remote Config uses your installation ID (“IID”) to select configuration values and return them to your device(s), which we will retain for up to 180 days after your request to delete the IID;

• Firebase Authentication uses your password(s), email address(es), phone number(s), user agent(s), and IP address(es) to enable end-user authentication, and facilitate end-user account management. It also uses user-agent strings and IP addresses to provide added security and prevent abuse during sign-up and authentication.  We will retain your IP address(es) for a few weeks, the rest of your data will be deleted within 180 days of the closure of your account.

C. NWM or its service providers may also use “pixel tags,” “web beacons,” “clear GIFs” or similar means (collectively, “Pixel Tags”) in connection with some of our Site pages and HTML-formatted email messages for purposes of, among other things, compiling aggregate statistics about website usage and response rates. A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single pixel (1×1), that is ordinarily not visible to website visitors and may be associated with cookies on visitors’ computers or mobile devices. Pixel Tags allow us and our service providers to count users who have visited certain pages of our Site, to deliver customized services, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted email messages, Pixel Tags can inform the sender of the email whether and when the email has been opened.

D. As you use the internet, you leave a trail of electronic information at each website you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as “clickstream data”, can be collected and stored by a website’s server. Clickstream data can reveal the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to our Site. We may use clickstream data as a form of non-personally identifiable information to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our Site, how visitors navigate through the Site, and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors.
