As explained above, CCWC participates in online interest-based advertising. To learn more about online interest-based advertising, including how to opt out, visit the Network Advertising Initiative www.networkadvertising.org website. Please note that the NAI opt-out mechanism relies on cookies to remember your choices with respect to ad-serving on websites. If you delete your cookies, use another computer or device, or change browsers, you will need to repeat the opt-out process. If you do opt-out of interest-based advertisements, you may still see advertisements on websites you visit, but those ads will not be based on your browsing behavior.
Some browsers have a “do not track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. This Site does not currently respond to such browser “do not track” signals, but we do provide you the option to opt out of online interest-based advertising via the NAI opt-out mechanism described above.
Our mobile services may use location information transmitted by your mobile device. You can adjust the settings of your mobile device at any time to control whether your device communicates this location information. Please see your device instructions to learn more about these settings.

CCWC endeavors to maintain reasonable and appropriate physical, administrative, and technical controls to protect your personal information.

Our mobile applications and services may also collect precise information about the location of your device through your device before our mobile applications and services obtain such location information from technologies like GPS, Wi-Fi, or cell tower proximity (or a combination of these technologies). CCWC and our service providers may use and store this information, in combination with other location-based information such as IP address and billing or postal code provided by you at time of your mobile application registration, to provide enhanced location based services, such as search results, and other content.

You may use the standard uninstall processes available as part of your mobile device or via the mobile application marketplace or network. If you uninstall a mobile application from your device, the CCWC unique identifier associated with your device may continue to be stored. If you re-install the application on the same device, CCWC will be able to re-associate this identifier to your previous transactions.
- You may at any time opt-out from further allowing us to have access to your location data by adjusting the permissions on your mobile device.
