Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in our Cookie Notice. LCWCID #1 (Buffalo Springs Lake) uses cookies in the following way:

• Web-browsing cookies: LCWCID #1 (Buffalo Springs Lake) may use web-browsing cookies to display information more effectively to you and to gather data about the usage of our website.

Advertising

LCWCID #1 (Buffalo Springs Lake) may use pixel or cookie technologies to market to website visitors. However, most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

How We Use and Share Information

Unless otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, LCWCID #1 (Buffalo Springs Lake) will not use and share any information that we collect from or about you with a third party, unless otherwise stated in this policy or as required by law.

Looking out for Children

We do not knowingly market to or solicit information from children under 18 without parental consent. We recognize that protecting children’s identities and privacy online is important, and that the responsibility to do so rests with both the online industry and with parents. While LCWCID #1 (Buffalo Springs Lake) works to protect your personal information if it has been submitted to us, you also have responsibility. The internet is a public network. Childrens’ access to the internet can allow them to visit inappropriate websites and be exposed to unwanted risks. COPPA, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, protects children under the age of 13 from online collection of personal information. Parents can be proactive by installing filtering software that gives them more control over their family’s internet experience. We recommend that minors 18 years of age or older ask their parents for permission before sending any information about themselves to anyone over the Internet. Additionally, we do not knowingly target or re-market to anyone under the age of 18 through preventative measures put in place by third-party social media and advertising partners such as Google and Facebook.
