1. Personal Information We Collect

We may collect the following personal information:

• Contact information, such as your name, company, email address and phone number;
• Username, password and other log-in information;
• Payment information;
• Internet or other electronic network activity information;
• Geolocation data;
• Inferences drawn from the above-listed categories of personal information; and
• Other personal information in content you voluntarily provide to us via your communications to us, including via our Sumer FantasyBot on our website and through our social media platforms.

We collect this personal information from a variety of sources, including (without limitation) directly from you, your devices, vendors who provide services on our behalf, social media networks, business partners, and public data sources.

In addition, when you visit our websites, we obtain certain information by automated means, such as through the use of cookies, web server logs and web beacons. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and their cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. Through these automated collection methods, we collect “clickstream data,” which is a log of content on which a visitor clicks while browsing a website. As the visitor clicks through the website, a record of the action may be collected and stored.

The information we collect by automated means may include, without limitation, your IP address, browser characteristics, device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, information on actions taken on our site, and dates and times of website visits.

Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies or how to restrict or disable certain types of cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to use all of the features of our Site.

We also use your information to train and optimize our Sumer FantasyBot, such as by reviewing your questions posed to the Sumer FantasyBot to improve its responses. The Sumer FantasyBot will never ask you for personal information and any personal information you provide is at your own discretion and not required for your use of the Sumer FantasyBot. We will not connect any questions or responses to any specific person or account.

In addition, we may use the information we collect about you in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.
