This Cookies and Automatic Data Collection Policy constitute a legal agreement and are entered into by and between you and 1199091 B.C. Ltd dba My Auto Lenders (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”).

We use cookies (small files placed on your device) or other automatic data collection technologies on our website to distinguish you from other website users. This helps us deliver a better and more personalised service when you browse our website. It also allows us to improve our website by enabling us to:

• Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.
• Store your preferences and customise our content according to your individual interests (such as for advertising) and needs (such as time-zones, notification preferences, and language).
• Speed up your searches.
• Recognise you when you return to our Website (such as to make logging in easier)
• Allow you to use our site in a way that makes your browsing experience more convenient, for example, by allowing you to store items in an electronic shopping basket between visits. If you register with us or complete our online forms, we will use cookies to remember your details during your current visit, and any future visits provided the cookie was not deleted in the interim.

We also may use cookies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (commonly known as behavioural tracking). These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests.

You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting, certain parts of our Website may become inaccessible and certain features may not work correctly. Unless you adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, our system will issue them.

Certain features of our website may also use Flash cookies (local stored objects) instead of browser cookies to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our website. Flash cookies use different management tools from browser cookies and you must manage their settings separately by visiting the Flash Player settings page on Adobe’s website.

Some content or applications, including advertisements, on our website are served by third parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use our website. They may associate the information collected with your personal data or they may collect information, including personal data, about your online activities over time and across different websites or other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioural) advertising or other targeted content.

We do not control how these third-party tracking technologies operate or how they may use the collected data. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content, you should contact the responsible provider directly. These third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in a way you are uncomfortable with.

In addition, you can opt out of several third-party tracking platforms simultaneously by using the opt-out tool created by the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada and the Network Advertising Initiative (and available on their respective websites). You can also access their websites to learn more about online behavioural advertising and how to stop websites from placing cookies on your device. Please Note: Opting out of a network does not mean you will no longer receive online advertising. However, it does mean that the network from which you opted out will no longer deliver ads tailored to your web preferences and usage patterns.
