b. Use
of Cookies
IRBGL.com may use cookies to
personalize or enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small
text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server.
Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.
Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a Web
Server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes
of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time.
For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site,
a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent
visits. Hence, this simplifies the process of delivering relevant
content and eases site navigation by providing and saving your preferences
and login information as well as providing personalized functionality..
IRBGL.com reserves the right
to share aggregated site statistics with partner companies, but does
not allow other companies to place cookies on our website unless there
is a temporary, overriding customer value (such as merging into IRBGL.com.com
a site that relies on third-party cookies).
You have the ability to accept
or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies,
but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies.
If you reject cookies by changing your browser settings then be aware
that this may disable some of the functionality on our Website.
- Personal Information

may be forwarded to your credit card provider. For other types of registrations,
we will ask for the relevant information. You may also be asked to disclose
personal information to us so that we can provide assistance and information
to you. For example, such data may be warranted in order to provide

identifiable information we collect from you to third parties without
your permission except to the extent necessary including:

4.
Use of Web Beacons or GIF files
IRBGL.com Web pages may contain
electronic images known as Web beacons – sometimes also called single-pixel
gifs – that allow IRBGL.com to count users who have visited those
pages and to deliver co-branded services. IRBGL.com may include
Web beacons in promotional e-mail messages or newsletters in order to
determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.
Some of these Web beacons may
be placed by third party service providers to help determine the effectiveness
of our advertising campaigns or email communications. These Web
beacons may be used by these service providers to place a persistent
cookie on your computer. This allows the service provider to recognize
your computer each time you visit certain pages or emails and compile
anonymous information in relation to those page views, which in turn
enables us and our service providers to learn which advertisements and
emails bring you to our website and how you use the site. IRBGL.com
prohibits Web beacons from being used to collect or access your personal
information.
5. Third-party Advertisers,
Links to Other Sites
IRBGL.com allows other third-party
ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within IRBGL.com.
These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send,
directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on
IRBGL.com. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens.
They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or
Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and
to personalize the advertising content you see.
IRBGL.com does not provide
any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers
or ad networks without your consent or except as part of a specific
program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or
opt-out. However, please note that if an advertiser asks IRBGL.com to
show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34)
or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain
channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser
or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience
they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding
your use of IRBGL.com, such as the number of times you viewed an ad
(but not any personally identifiable information), to determine which
ads to deliver to you.
You should consult the respective
privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks (see
links below) for more information on their practices and for instructions
on how to opt-out of certain practices. IRBGL.com's privacy policy does
not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers
or web sites.
Currently, IRBGL.com has relationships
with the following third-party ad servers or ad networks:
