Cookies

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, or mobile app, or use an online platform. Cookies are widely used by online service providers to facilitate and help to make the interaction between users and websites, mobile apps, and online platforms faster and easier, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website and/or mobile app and/or platform owner (in this case, Crosslist) are called “first-party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website and/or mobile app and/or platform owner are called “third-party cookies”.

Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website and/or mobile app and/or platform (e.g. advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer or device both when it visits the website and/or mobile app and/or platform in question and also when it visits certain other websites and/or mobile apps and/or platforms.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Websites and/or App and/or platform to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Websites and/or App and/or platform. Third parties serve cookies through our Websites and/or App and/or platform for analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

Services used

• Stripe: our payment gateway. This allows us to accept credit card payments securely.
• Google Analytics: our visitor’s statistics. We track visits from our server so the Google javascript is not installed and you are never tracked. (Your IP is anonymized, and no cookies or tracking devices are installed on your computer).

Cookies used

• Crosslist _t. Session tracking cookie.
• Stripe    __lc.visitor_id.XXXXXXX, __stripe_mid, __stripe_orig_props, stripe.csrf, cid, lang, machine_identifier, merchant, mp_{token}_mixpanel, private_machine_identifier, lc_window_state. We rely on Stripe to handle payments made on Crosslist.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by clicking on the appropriate opt-out links provided in the cookie table above.

You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Websites and/or App and/or platform though your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser’s help menu for more information.

Blocking Cookies

You can remove or block certain cookies using the settings in your browser but the Service may cease to function properly if you do so.

Do Not Track Signals

Your Web browser may have a “do not track” setting which, when enabled, causes your browser to send a do not track HTTP header file or “signal” to each site you visit. At present, the Service does not respond to this type of signal.

Sub-processors

We use the following 3rd party services to improve, understand troubleshoot, report bugs, and provide support for you:

Google Analytics

We use this service to understand general usage, and traffic sources and to measure campaign success.

Stripe

We use this service to handle all the payments made on the Service. The sole purpose is to increase security regarding the handling of sensible payment information such as your credit card details.

Mailjet

We use this service to send emails on our behalf. The sole purpose is to increase email deliverability and success over sending via our own servers which may be blacklisted.

REMEMBER: We use these services only to provide you with a fantastic product that gives you easy access to things you like and to improve our general look and feel. If you choose to block, global opt-out from some of the services that we use to deliver our product, you may run into errors, product bugs, and other failures that influence your general experience and the quality of our service. We are ok with that and respect your choice.

Other Access to or Disclosure of Your Information

The Service may also contain links to third-party websites. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by us. Even if the third party is affiliated with us through a business partnership or otherwise, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such a third party. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the privacy policies of such third parties to determine how they handle any information they separately collect from you. Please be aware that we do not warn you when you choose to click through to another website when using the Service.

The Websites contain features that enable you to post reviews, comments, or other content that is publicly viewable. You should be aware that any personal information you submit as part of those posts can be read, collected, or used by other visitors to the Websites, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personal information you choose to publicly post on the Websites. Please see our Website Terms of Use for more information and for other guidelines about posting content on the Websites.

Your Controls and Choices

Your data protection rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

If you wish to access, correct, update, or request the deletion of your personal information, you can do so at any time by emailing [email protected].

In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal information, ask us to restrict the processing of your personal information, or request the portability of your personal information. Again, you can exercise these rights by emailing [email protected].

You have the right to opt out of marketing communications we send you at any time. You can exercise this right by clicking on the “unsubscribe” or “opt-out” link in the marketing emails we send you. To opt out of other forms of marketing, please contact us by emailing [email protected].

Similarly, if we have collected and processed your personal information with your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

We respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

Accessing and Updating Your Personal Information

When you use the Service, we make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personal information upon your request and either provide you the means to correct this information if it is inaccurate or to delete such information at your request if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes. You may access, review, correct, update, change, or delete your information at any time. To do so, please contact us at [email protected] with your name and the information requested to be accessed, corrected, or removed, or if you are using the Service, sign in to your account, go to your profile, and make the desired changes. We may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup tapes), jeopardize the privacy of others, would be extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required. In any case, where we provide information access and correction, we perform this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a disproportionate effort.

We may retain your information as necessary to support the Service, comply with our legal obligations, or resolve disputes.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy at any time. If we make changes, we will post them and will indicate on this page the policy’s new effective date. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you by email or through a notice on the Service.

No Children Under Age 13

The Service is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 13, nor does Crosslist knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are under 13, you may not attempt to register for the Service or send any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, or email address. In the event that we confirm that we have collected personal information from someone under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information promptly. If you are a parent or legal guardian of a child under 13 and believe that we might have any information from or about such a child, please contact us at the email or mailing address provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.

Your California Privacy Rights and Disclosures

California Shine the Light Law. If you are a California resident and we disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing purposes, California’s Shine the Light Law (CA Civil Code Section 1798.83) allows you to request certain information from us about such disclosures. To make a request under the Shine the Light Law, please contact us at [email protected]. Please note that under California law, businesses are not required to respond to such requests more than once during any calendar year.

California Information-Sharing Disclosure. California residents may request a list of all third parties with respect to which we have disclosed any information about you for direct marketing purposes and the categories of information disclosed. If you are a California resident and want such a list, please send us a written request by email to [email protected] with “California Privacy Rights” in the subject line.

California Minors. At any time, you can delete or remove your posts using the same deletion or removal procedures described in Section Accessing and Updating Your Personal Information above, or otherwise through the Service. If you have questions about how to remove your posts or if you would like additional assistance with deletion you can contact our support team at [email protected].

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. We maintain a variety of appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect your personal information. We limit access to personal information about you to employees who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs. Further, we have implemented reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards designed to protect your personal information about you. When you enter sensitive information (such as your password), we encrypt that information in transit using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption technology. No method of transmission over the Internet, method of electronic storage, or other security methods is one hundred percent secure. Therefore, while we strive to use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
