HOW PRICEPINGER COLLECTS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
PricePinger may collect information either actively, as described above, or passively.

The Platform uses Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user’s computer).
