We also use the information we collect to create custom audiences and lookalike audiences for our online advertising campaigns.
We analyze the information we collect to better understand how users access and use our Sites, App and Services, both on an aggregated and individualized basis.

We may send you surveys and questionnaires to evaluate customer satisfaction, user engagement, for market research, or other purposes.
We may use such data sets for research, product and services improvement and development, marketing, advertising, trend analysis and other purposes.

how we share your information
AFFILIATES; CONSULTANTS; THIRD PARTIES
In connection with their performance of services to maintain and operate the Services and certain features of the Services, certain trusted service providers may be permitted to access your information. For example, we may use service providers to host the Site or App; operate various features available on the Services; send emails; analyze data; provide search results and links and assist in fulfilling your orders.
Aside from us, only our affiliates, technical consultants, third party auditors and other parties who make our Site available, enhance its functionality, assist with the processing of your purchases, or provide associated services and/or who deal with you in delivering content, samples, products, gifts and prizes, have access to this information.
If you participate in the Zutto Community or tag us on social media, we may share your name and the content you have tagged us in (such as your photos or videos) on our Services and on our social media accounts. If you post a review, your review will be available to all Site, App, and Services visitors.
INFORMATION RELATED TO ADVERTISING
To support and enhance the Services, we may serve advertisements, and also allow third parties advertisements, through the Services. These advertisements are sometimes targeted and served to particular users and may come from third party companies called "ad networks." Ad networks include third party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms. Ad networks may use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs), Flash LSOs and other online tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These cookies and other technologies are governed by each ad network's specific privacy policy, not this one. We may provide these parties with information, including personal information, about you to assist us with our advertising campaigns. We may engage with ad networks that are members or organizations or programs that manage the advertising privacy choices these ad networks offer consumers.
When you visit our Site or use our mobile applications or other Services, ad networks and other parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these ad networks and other parties.
Advertisements served through the Services may be targeted to users who fit a certain general profile category, which may be inferred from information provided to us by a user, may be based on the Services usage patterns of particular users, or may be based on your activity on other websites, mobile applications, and media. We also may disclose certain information (such as your email address) to ad networks, including Facebook, so that we can better target ads and content to you and others with similar interests on other websites or media (“Custom Audiences”). We may also work with other ad networks and marketing platforms that enable us and other participants to target ads to Custom Audiences submitted by us and others. You may also control how Facebook and other ad networks display certain ads to you, as explained further in their respective privacy policies or by using the opt-outs described below.
LAW ENFORCEMENT AND INVESTIGATIONS
Please note that Zutto reserves the right to and may disclose Personal Information about you in response to (a) requests from local, state or federal law enforcement officials; (b) any judicial, administrative or similar proceeding or order, such as subpoena; (c) if required by law; or (d) to investigate suspected fraud, harassment, physical threats, or other violations of any law, rule or regulation, the Services rules or policies, or the rights of third parties or to investigate any suspected conduct which we deem improper.
CHANGE OF CONTROL
Please also note that we do reserve the right to transfer your Personal Information and other information as an asset in connection with a proposed or actual merger or sale (including any transfers made as part of an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding) involving all or part of our business or as part of a corporate reorganization, stock sale, financing, or other change in control. In such a circumstance the Transferee would be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. As part of the change of control process, we may share certain of your Personal Information with lenders, auditors, and advisors, including attorneys and consultants.
NON-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
We use non-personally identifiable information in the aggregate, so that we can improve the Services and for business and administrative purposes. We may also use or share with other parties for any purpose aggregated, anonymized, pseudonymized, or de-identified data that contains no personally identifiable information.
USE OF COOKIES and other technologies
Our Site may pass a "cookie" (a string of information that is sent by a web site to be resident on your system's hard drive, and/or temporarily in your computer's memory blocks). The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a particular page. The Site may use cookies to keep track of your status and contents of your shopping cart, or to retain information gathered in cookies to allow you access to password-protected areas of the Site. You may set your browser to decline cookies. If you do so, however, you may not be able to fully experience some interactive features of the Site.
Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your device’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web or mobile application pages. We may use clear GIFs (aka web beacons, web bugs or pixel tags), in connection with our Services to, among other things, track the activities of Services users, help us manage content, and compile statistics about usage of our Services. We and our service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.
We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate usage of our Services. We also may use other analytic means to evaluate our Services. We use these tools to help us improve our Services’ performance and user experiences. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons or local storage objects (LSOs), to perform their services. To learn more about Google’s privacy practices, please review the Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent their data from being used by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Currently, our systems do not recognize browser “do-not-track” signals. You may, however, disable certain tracking as discussed in this section (e.g., by disabling cookies); you also may opt-out of targeted advertising by following the instructions in the Information Related to Advertising section above.
