In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you, or we may otherwise need the personal information to protect your vital interests or those of another person (for example, to prevent payment fraud or confirm your identity).

Cookies and Internet Advertising

We and our Service Providers use cookies and other technologies (such as web beacons), as well as resettable device identifiers, for various reasons. We want you to be informed about our use of these technologies, so this section explains the types of technologies we use, how we use them, and your choices regarding their use.

Cookies and similar technologies, web beacons, and resettable device identifiers

Cookies are small data files that are commonly stored on your device when you browse websites and use online services. We use other technologies such as browser storage and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). Like cookies, these other technologies may store small amounts of data on your device. Web beacons (also known as clear gifs or pixel tags) often work in conjunction with cookies. In many cases, declining cookies will impair the effectiveness of the web beacons associated with those cookies.

If you use the medi-cine.online app on a mobile device, tablet, or streaming media device, we may collect a resettable device identifier from your device. Resettable device identifiers (also known as advertising identifiers) are similar to cookies and are found on many mobile devices and tablets (for example, the "Identifier for Advertisers" (or IDFA) on Apple iOS devices and the "Google Advertising ID" on Android devices), and certain streaming media devices. Like cookies, resettable device identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant and for analytics and optimization purposes.

Why does medi-cine.online use these technologies?

We use these types of technologies for various reasons, like facilitating the access to our services by remembering your data when you return; we also use these technologies to provide, analyze, understand and enhance the use of our services; to enforce our terms, prevent fraud; to improve site performance, monitor visitor traffic and actions on our site; and to deliver and tailor our marketing or advertising, as well as to analyze interactions with our emails, marketing, and online ads on third party sites.

To help you better understand how we use cookies and resettable device identifiers, please see the information below:

Essential cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide our website or online service. For example, we and our Service Providers may use these cookies to authenticate and identify our members when they use our websites and applications, so that we can provide our service to them. They also help us enforce our Terms of Use, prevent fraud and maintain the security of our service.
Performance and functionality cookies: These cookies help us customize and improve your online experience with medi-cine.online. For example, they help us remember your preferences and prevent you from needing to re-enter the information you had previously provided (for example, during member sign-up). We also use these cookies to collect information (such as most visited pages, conversion rates, viewing patterns, click-through and other information) about our visitors' use of the medi-cine.online service so that we can enhance and personalize our website and service and conduct market research. Deletion of these types of cookies may result in limited functionality of our service.
Advertising cookies and resettable device identifiers: These cookies and resettable device identifiers use information about your use of this and other websites and apps, your response to ads and emails, in order to deliver ads that are more relevant to you and for analytics and optimization purposes. These types of ads are called "interest-based advertising." The advertising cookies associated with our service belong to our Service Providers.

As far as our use of these technologies is concerned, some of the websites and apps where we advertise, as well as advertising technology companies that we use to purchase, deliver, optimize, and/or measure our advertisements (collectively “Advertising Partners”), may receive limited information from us as part of our campaign targeting, measurement, and optimization (e.g., information related to the steps completed during sign-up, information about visits to the website, or information about app launching/app installation).

This type of information is generally used to judge the effectiveness of campaigns and optimize these campaigns, thus allowing Advertising Partners to know whether a user who saw an add later subscribed to our service. Also, this information is commonly used to make sure we do not serve ads trying to get individuals to sign up for the medi-cine.online service if they are already a medi-cine.online user.

medi-cine.online uses contractual and technical measures designed to prevent Advertising Partners from accessing information regarding specific title selections you make, URLs you land on, or shows you have watched on our service. We do not share information about title selections or your shows you have watched on our service.

How can I exercise my choice regarding these technologies?

To exercise choice regarding cookies

To gain further information about the cookies setting in our website, as well as other types of online tracking (including the collection of information about your online activities by third parties over time and across third-party websites or online services for online interest-based advertising), and to exercise choices regarding them, click here. At the moment, we do not respond to "do not track" signals in browsers.

To exercise choice regarding resettable device identifiers

To opt out of receiving interest-based ads from medi-cine.online linked with a resettable device identifier on a mobile device, tablet, or streaming media devices, please configure the appropriate setting on your device (usually found under "privacy" or "ads" in your device settings). You may still see medi-cine.online ads on your device, but they will not be customized to meet your potential interests.

To exercise choice regarding other technologies

There are several ways to exercise choice regarding technologies that are similar to cookies, such as browser storage and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). For example, many popular browsers allow users to clear browser storage, commonly in the settings or preferences area; see the help function or support area in your browser to learn more. Other technologies, such as Silverlight storage, may be cleared from within the application.
