Log Files
Like most other websites, we collect and use the data in log files.  The information in the log files includes your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as Comcast or Fairpoint), the browser you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Chrome), the time you visited our site, and which pages you visited throughout our site.

Cookies and Web Beacons
We also use third-party advertisements on Yard Sale Weddings to support our site.  Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed.  This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing New York real estate ads to someone in New York, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites).

DoubleClick DART cookies
We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visiting a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements).  This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests (interest based targeting).

The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history. For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas, you may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as a site about hockey.  DART uses “non-personally identifiable information”.  It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security number, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers.
