Privacy Policy

 

Sokno Media, Inc d/b/a SourceKnowledge (“SourceKnowledge”, “us”, “we”, or “our”) is an entity incorporated under the laws of Canada.  We provide online advertising services to advertising networks and third-party advertisers (each, “Advertising Customers”) to run marketing campaigns and place ads via online media to reach potential purchasers (“Consumers”) and related reporting (“Services”).  If you visit this website, engage with us as an Advertising Customer or when you interact as a Consumer with ads that we help place for Advertising Customers on a third party website, mobile application, or other platforms (collectively, “Publishers”), we may collect some or all of the data described in the this Privacy Policy (“Policy”). 

 

SourceKnowledge’s policy is to respect your privacy regarding any information that identifies or can reasonably be used to identify you as an individual as defined by applicable law (“Personal Information”). Accordingly, we have developed this Policy to describe how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect your Personal Information. We encourage you to read this Policy carefully in order to fully understand our policies and practices regarding your Personal Information.

 

If you are a consumer resident of Canada or either the State of California or the State of Virginia in the United States, additional disclosures apply to you.  Please see below for your additional Canadian disclosures and your California or Virginia privacy rights.  

We may update this Policy from time to time. All changes will be effective immediately upon posting. Notice of material changes will be visibly posted or otherwise communicated to you. 

 

1. WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT 

 

For more detailed information on our tracking technologies, please see our FAQ on “How We Track”.

You do not have to provide us with Personal Information to visit this website, but if you elect to register with us as an Advertising Customer or a Publisher, then you will be required to provide us Personal Information as set forth below.  

 

Consumer

 

If you interact with an ad that we place by clicking on it, we may collect the following data through your “click”:

 

    • Computer Internet Protocol (IP) address, user agent, HTTP request header, device ID, referral domain, browser type, device type, internet service provider, and keywords. 
    • Data regarding your browsing activity such as which pages you visited, when you visited, and what items you placed into your online shopping cart. 
    • Data about the online ads we have served or attempted to serve to you, such as how many times an ad has been served to you, what page the ad appeared on, and whether you clicked on or otherwise interacted with the ad.
    • Cookies installed on the Consumer’s computer or device, which may include an anonymous unique identifier.  For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org or the section below titled “Cookies and Related Technologies”.  

 

Although the above information may be Personal Information in certain jurisdictions, the SourceKnowledge platform does not collect any data which by itself identifies an individual Consumer, such as name, address, phone number, or email address.  However, SourceKnowledge uses cookies, pixels, widgets, macros, and scripts in the ads it places along with the above data to generate probabilistic identifiers to help identify a Consumer. 

 

Advertisers and Publishers

 

If you are an Advertising Customer or Publisher, then you access our online tool via our website (“Tool”).  

 

When you register with us to open an Advertising Customer or Publisher account or otherwise visit our website, we may collect the following types of Personal Information from you: 

 

    1. Information identifying you and the entity you represent, as well as others who may access the Tool on your behalf.  This includes your name, company name, address, email address, phone number, billing information, social media or Skype® handle, and Personal Information identifying your authorized users.
    2. Information identifying your use of the Tool and your account, such as IP addresses, device IDs, browser information, internet service provider, referral URLs, purchase history, and transaction history.

 

We use cookies, log files, web beacons, tags, pixels, scripts, and macros in the ads that we generate and place for our Advertising Customers to collect the Personal Information described above directly from Consumers that view the ads or otherwise interact with Advertising Customers Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce or Magento online shops.

 

 

We do not directly collect or store your credit card number or other payment information, but rather we use a third-party payment processor, Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”), to process payments for all Services as contemplated in our Advertiser Terms of Service. Accordingly, Stripe will collect your contact and billing information when you pay for Services, such as your name, e-mail address, phone number and mailing address. If you are paying by bank debit or credit card, Stripe will collect your credit card number, expiration, three-digit security code and billing zip code. Stripe will share your transaction information with us so that we can track payment status for the Service but will not provide us your card or banking information. Stripe will retain your payment information in encrypted form on its servers. We do not collect or store your card or bank information on our servers. Stripe’s privacy policies can be found at https://stripe.com/us/privacy.

 

If you register with our platform as either an Advertising Customer or a Publisher, when you access your account via our platform, you will have access to a chatbot.  The chatbot may record messages that you type before you send them to us.  Any messages you type or send will be collected, recorded, and maintained.  

 

2. COOKIES AND RELATED TECHNOLOGIES

 

The SourceKnowledge Tool uses cookies, log files, web beacons, tags, pixels, scripts, and macros to provide our Services to our Advertising Customers and Publishers. 

 

Cookies are small data files that are served by our platform and stored on your device. They enable us to identify a Consumer’s device when moving between different websites and applications, so that we can serve targeted advertising to Consumers. Specifically, the SourceKnowledge cookie we serve through the SourceKnowledge platform is named “ProvenPixel universal pixel (upx)”. 

 

We may also drop an additional SourceKnowledge opt-out cookies if any user opts-out as described below. 

 

We may enable cookies to be dropped from our Advertising Customers, including those Advertising Customers who are advertising affiliate networks.

 

If you do not want to receive those kinds of advertisements, look for the “Ad Choices” icon in the advertisements, which will contain a link to the privacy policy of the ad network that will provide you with information on how to opt-out of receiving such targeted advertising.  You can also visit Network Advertising Initiative at http://www.networkadvertising.org or the Digital Advertising Alliance at http://www.aboutads.info to change your consumer preferences with respect to certain online ads and to obtain further information about third-party ad networks and online behavioral advertising.

    • Performance and functionality cookies. These cookies help us to customize and enhance a visitor’s online experience with us.

These types of ads are called “interest-based advertising.”

 

We use these cookies and types of data to judge the effectiveness of and optimize ad campaigns for our Advertising Customers to see when someone who saw an ad later signed up for or purchased the services/products of the Advertising Customer.

MailChimp may collect the Internet protocol (“IP”) addresses assigned to your computer, your operating system type, demographic information about you, and other information about you and your receipt of our emails. MailChimp also uses cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information about your online activity and uses web beacons to track behavior (for example, which recipients opened emails and when, which recipients clicked on links contained in those emails, and your browser and email client type). MailChimp may combine this information with information about you obtained by searching the Internet (for example, your use of social media platforms). MailChimp may use your information and share it with third parties and for purposes of promoting its services, communicating with you, to comply with legal requirements, and to protect its legal rights. We encourage you to review MailChimp’s privacy policy, which is located at https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy.
    3. In connection with legal proceedings.
