Like most website operators, First Aid For Feet collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. First Aid For Feet’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how First Aid For Feet’s visitors uses its website. From time to time, First Aid For Feet may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

First Aid For Feet also collects personally-identifying information, like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users and for users leaving comments on First Aid For Feet blogs/sites. First Aid For Feet only reveals logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and shows personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

Gathering of personally-identifying information

Certain visitors to First Aid For Feet’s websites choose to interact with First Aid For Feet in ways that require First Aid For Feet to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that First Aid For Feet gathers will depend on the nature of the interaction.

Those who engage in transactions with First Aid For Feet are asked to provide additional information, including, as necessary, the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, First Aid For Feet collects such information only insofar as is necessary or proper to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with First Aid For Feet. First Aid For Feet does not publish personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the exception that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

The information thus obtained we can use for the display of Facebook Ads. We point out that we, as the provider of the website, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data and are using it by Facebook.
