This Privacy Policy explains how information about you is collected, used, and disclosed by us when you visit the carb-counter.net website (“Site”).

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time.  If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of the policy.  We encourage you to check back regularly to stay informed about our information practices and the choices available to you.

Collection of Information

Information You Provide to Us

We collect information you provide directly to us when you submit the “Contact Us” form on this site.  

Information We Collect Automatically When You Use the Site

Tracking information is automatically collected about all visitors to the Site. This information consists of both individual and aggregated tracking information and is automatically gathered using "cookies." A cookie is a small data file containing information, such as a configuration setting, that is written to the user's hard drive by a web server and used to track the pages visited.

We use cookies to:

  • Store configuration settings

  • Store Site session identifiers

  • Collect aggregated site usage and demographic information through Google Analytics

In addition to the cookies described above, advertisers and third-party advertising vendors that serve ads onto the Site, and other third party partners, may, where allowed by law, use their own or third-party cookies or other tracking technologies for advertising, including delivering targeted advertisements and marketing messages (known as Internet-based advertising or "IBA") based upon the websites you visit, or other purposes. IBA works by showing you advertisements that are based on the type of content you access or read.  

You can control your browser's settings regarding cookies by selecting "Internet Options" or "Preferences" in the menu bar of your browser. This will allow you to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, have your browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or disable cookies altogether. However, because cookies allow you to more easily navigate web sites, you may prefer to leave them turned on.

If you want to opt out of receiving interest-based advertising, it does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising when you are using our website. It just means that we will not use information collected about you for IBA and that any advertising you see will not be customized or relevant to you. You can exercise your online advertising choices at http://optout.aboutads.info or by clicking the AdChoices icon in an ad and following the instructions. You may also opt out of receiving interest-based ads from many sites through the Network Advertising Initiative's (NAI) Opt Out Tool (http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices)  and in the EU at http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. Remember, if you delete cookies, use a different device, or change web browsers, you may need to opt out again.

We cannot be responsible for the privacy policies or practices of third party advertisers and vendors. Additionally, third party advertising vendors, including Google, show our ads on sites on the Internet
