COLLECTING OTHER INFORMATION
We also collect different types of non-identifiable information, including:
Device and browsing information and other Internet activity information. We use automated means to collect information about your phone, tablet, computer, or device, and online browsing activity. This information may include IP addresses, unique device identifiers, cookie identifiers, device and browser settings and information, and Internet service provider information. We use a variety of means to collect this information, including the following:
Cookies: Like many websites, we use a feature of your browser called a “cookie.” A cookie automatically identifies a computer—but not an individual—to our servers when a person visits our Platform. Cookies allow us to correlate your computer with certain usage patterns that are stored in our log files. We use cookies to help us improve our Platform and to deliver a better and more customized service. They enable us to estimate usage patterns, store information about your preferences, customize our Platform, and recognize users when they return to our Platform. If for any reason you do not wish to take advantage of cookies, you may have your browser not accept them, although this will disable some essential features our Platform.
Cookies/Tracking Technologies on Social Media Sites: Esports maintains pages on various Social Media Sites. When you visit our Social Media Sites, the provider of the Social Media Sites and other third parties may set cookies and other tracking technologies on your browser or device. We do not have control over the placement of cookies by other websites or social media websites. Please note that this Policy does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, the privacy practices or cookie use by any third party sites.
Clear GIFS: We may also collect information through the use of clear gifs (also called Pixel Tags, Web beacons and Web bugs) on our Platform and in selected email messages we send to you. These are tiny graphic files, not visible to the human eye, that help us analyze our customers’ online behavior and measure the effectiveness of our Platform and our advertising. We work with third party service providers that help us track, collect, and analyze this information, which may include your device’s IP address, your browser type, your operating system, date and time information, such as when you receive, open, or click a link in an email message from us, and other technical information about your device. We may also track certain information about the identity of the website you visited immediately before coming to our site.
Do Not Track Signals: When a user turns on the Do Not Track preference in their web browser, the browser sends a message to websites requesting them not to track the user. At this time, we do not respond to Do Not Track browser settings or signals. For information about Do Not Track, please visit: www.allaboutdnt.org.

THIRD PARTY LINKS
Our Platform and Social Media accounts may include links to third party websites whose privacy practices may differ from ours.

- As required by law, court order, or subpoena, or to comply with regulatory requirements.
We do not sell, rent, or lease any student information to third parties for marketing purposes.
