This cookie does not in any way identify the User or give access to the Users’ computer or mobile device.

      3. Interest-based Advertising. Burzt may also allow a limited number of trusted third parties to install cookies on Users’ hard drive from the website.

Burzt does not provide any Personal Information to advertisers or to third party sites that display interest-based ads on the website. However, advertisers and other third-parties (including the ad networks, ad-serving companies, and other service providers they may use) may assume that Users who interact with or click on a personalized ad or content displayed on the website are part of the group that the ad or content is directed towards.Advertisers or ad companies working on their behalf sometimes use technology to serve the ads that appear on the website directly to Users’ browser. They may also use cookies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize ad content.

Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices.
