International Transfers.

We will also implement the following safeguards:
5.1.1. When we transfer your personal data to Israel, we rely on the decision by the European Commission that says that those countries are considered to provide an adequate level of data protection.
5.1.2. Where we transfer your personal data to other countries, we (i) take additional security measures to protect the data and (ii) use specific contracts approved by the European Commission, known as the Standard Contractual Clauses, to give your personal data the same protection it has in the EEA.
5.1.3. Please contact us at [email protected] if you would like further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your Personal Data out of the EEA.
Security. The security of your personal data is our highest priority. We work hard to make sure that your personal data will be held securely and that it will not be shared or lost accidentally. However, it is impossible to guarantee absolute security. The security of your data also depends on the security of the devices you use and the way in which you protect your user IDs and passwords. The measures we take include:
6.1. Technical Measures. The electronic safeguards we employ to protect your personal data include secure servers, firewalls, and antivirus protections. We encrypt data in transit using secure HTTPS protocols.

9.1. What are Cookies? A cookie is a small piece of text that is sent to your browser by a website you visit. This piece of text acts as a sort of tag, letting the website know that it’s you (really, your device) that’s visiting. There are other technologies that act similarly, like web beacons, pixel tags, and Device IDs for apps, but for simplicity’s sake we’ll refer to them all as “cookies”.
9.2. Websites can place their own cookies (called “first-party cookies”) but can also place cookies from other sites (called “third-party cookies”). If your browser holds both first and third-party cookies for a given website, both the website and the third party are notified when you visit the Site. We may place both first and third-party cookies on our Site.
