We also may allow our service providers to use Web beacons to help us understand which emails have been opened by recipients and to track the visitor traffic and actions on our site. This helps us measure the effectiveness of our content and other offerings. 

6. DISPLAY OF ADVERTISING OR YOUR CHOICES

6.1. Data collected to serve you with relevant advertising

6.1.1. Wellnessta is committed to providing you with relevant content and information across our sites. To do this, we may collect information about your wellness-related searches and other site activities, such as whether you are looking for massages or Salon, Gym & Fitness, Spa therapy, Meditation Services, Yoga or Naturopathy and use this information to serve you with ads on our sites or elsewhere online that match your interests.

6.1.2. We only share your personal contact information (such as email addresses) with affiliated TPM so they can serve you with advertisements. You can choose not to receive relevant online advertising on other websites, based on your Wellness related searches on Wellnessta by sending an email request to us at privacy@wellnessta.com.

Information on our policy in relation to email contact with you is set out below.

6.2. Data collected by business partners and ad networks to serve you with relevant advertising

6.2.1. Many of the advertisements you see on the Wellnessta family of sites are served by Wellnessta or its service providers. But we also allow TPM to collect information about your online activities through cookies and other technologies. These TPM include:

6.2.1.1. business partners, who collect information when you view or interact with one of their advertisements on our sites, and

6.3. Response to Do Not Track signals

Your web browser may transmit a "Do Not Track" ("DNT") signal to Wellnessta and other websites. Because of differences in web browsers' default settings and the manner in which browsers incorporate DNT signals, it is sometimes unclear to site operators whether site visitors have selected the DNT setting themselves, or whether they are aware that they have a choice in determining the setting. Wellnessta does not currently respond to DNT signals. Once the Internet industry has settled on standards related to this issue and Wellnessta recognizes such standards, we may revaluate this approach. At the present time, our policy in relation to cookies, in particular, is set out below under "Cookies and Other Web Technologies."
