1. Introduction.
1.1. Effective Date. The effective date of this Privacy Policy is 10-1-2016.
1.2. Purpose. Tambor, Inc. (“Tambor” or “Company”) is committed to respecting the privacy rights of users of the Tambor Açaí website (the “Website”). Tambor has published this “Privacy Policy” to show its commitment to fair information practices and to the protection of privacy.
1.3. Scope. This Privacy Policy is only applicable to the Website, and not to any websites or services of third parties (“Third Party Websites”), which may have data collection, storage, and use practices and policies that differ materially from this Privacy Policy. For additional information, see Section 10 (Third Party Websites) and Section 4.5 (Third Party Cookies and Advertising).
1.4. Separate Terms of Service. By using the Website, you represent and warrant that you have also read and understood, and agree to be bound by, both this Privacy and Tambor’s separate Terms of Service document (the “Terms of Service”), which is incorporated by reference and made part of this Privacy Policy. The Terms of Service document is available at http://tamboracai.com/terms-of-service.
1.5. No Permission Without Agreement. By using the Website, you represent and warrant that you have read and understood, and agree to the terms of, this Privacy Policy. If you do not understand or do not agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy, you must immediately cease using or accessing the Website.
2. Updates and Changes to Privacy Policy.
2.1. Each time you access the Website, the then-current version of this Privacy Policy will apply. Each time you use the Website, we recommend that you check the date of this Privacy Policy in Section 1.1 (Effective Date) and review any changes since the last time you used the Service.
2.2. Although most changes are likely to be minor, Tambor reserves the right, at any time and without notice, to add to, update, change, or modify this Privacy Policy, simply by posting a new version on this page. Any such addition, update, or change will be effective immediately on posting. Unless Tambor obtains your express consent, any revised Privacy Policy will apply only to information collected after the effective date of the revised Privacy Policy, and not to information collected under any earlier Privacy Policy.
3. Children’s Privacy. Tambor does not solicit or knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. If Tambor obtains actual knowledge that it has collected Personal Information from a child under the age of 13, Tambor will immediately delete such information from its database. Because Tambor does not collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13, Tambor has no such information to use or disclose to third parties. Tambor has designed this Privacy Policy to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”).
4. Information Collection Practices.
4.1. Traffic Data. Like most website and mobile application operators, Tambor automatically gathers information that web browsers automatically make available, including: (i) IP addresses; (ii) Internet domain names; (iii) types of devices accessing the Website; and (iv) types of Web browsers accessing the Website (collectively “Traffic Data”). Traffic Data is anonymous information that is not meant to personally identify you.
4.2. Cookie Policy. “Cookies” are text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit or certain emails that you open. Cookies store a string of information on a user’s computer or mobile device, which the user’s web browser provides to the Website automatically each time it interacts with the Website. The purpose of Cookies is to identify the user as a unique user of the Website. Tambor uses two types of Cookies: “first-party cookies” and “third-party cookies.”
4.3. First Party Cookies. Tambor uses first-party Cookies on the Website, for example the Google Analytics Cookie, for the following purposes: (1) to gather visitor and access information relevant to customizing the Service to your interests; and (2) to store your password so you do not have to re-enter it each time you use the Website.
4.4. If you do not wish to have first-party Cookies placed on your computer or mobile device, you should set your web browser to refuse Cookies before accessing the Website. However, certain features of the Website may not function properly without the aid of Cookies. If you refuse Cookies, you assume all responsibility for any resulting loss of functionality.
4.5. Third Party Cookies and Advertising.
4.5.1. Advertising on Third Party Websites. Tambor may advertise on other Third Party Websites to you after you access the Website. We and third-party marketing partners, including without limitation Google, Inc. (“Google”), may use first party Cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie), third party Cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie), and web beacons (such as the Facebook conversion tracking pixel, see https://www.facebook.com/business/a/online-sales/conversion-tracking), including across multiple devices, to inform, optimize, and serve advertisements to you based on your use of the Website. This practice is commonly known as retargeting or remarketing (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavioral_retargeting).
4.5.2. Google Analytics.
4.5.2.1. Google Analytics is Google’s analytics tool that helps website and app owners to understand how their visitors engage with their properties. It may use a set of cookies to collect information and report website usage statistics without personally identifying individual visitors to Google. The main cookie used by Google Analytics is the “__ga” cookie. Tambor uses Google Analytics on the Tambor Açaí website.
4.5.3. Data Collection by Third Parties. Any of these third parties may place Cookies on your computer or mobile device, use web beacons (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_beacon), and gather IP addresses and log data to collect traffic and activity data to deliver relevant metrics and content.
4.5.4. Opting Out of Third Party Cookies.
4.5.4.1. You may customize your Google Cookies preferences or opt out of using Google Cookies on the Google Ads Settings page at http://www.google.com/settings/ads.
4.5.4.2. You may learn about Facebook Cookies and how to customize your preferences at https://www.facebook.com/about/ads.

In each case, you will be asked to provide Personal Information; the Website will not gather it secretly. Tambor may supplement the Personal Information you provide with additional Personal Information gathered from public sources or from third parties (e.g., consumer reporting agencies) who may lawfully provide that information to Tambor.
