Please be aware that when you register to become an ESTV user, other users of the ESTV Services may be able to see your screen or user name, in addition to any comments or submissions that you post to the Sites or submit via the ESTV Services. We recommend that you guard your anonymity and sensitive information and that you not use your real name as your screen or user name to the extent that allows others to identify you.
c. If you access the ESTV Services via a third-party platform or service account (e.g., by logging in to the ESTV Services using your Facebook account credentials) and/or integrate your ESETV account with your third-party platform account, we may collect certain information from such third-party platform, such as your username and other information you provided to such platform in connection with your account (e.g., name, country, date of birth, gender and e-mail address).

Log Data may include, but is not limited to, your computer’s Internet Protocol address, browser type, the web page you were visiting before you came to one of the Sites and information you search for on a Site. When a user downloads the ESTV Player, we may record that a download took place. When you launch the ESTV Player on a website our servers may automatically record Log Data. When the ESTV Player checks for new updates, it may also automatically send version number and operating system information to our servers.
e. Like many websites, we use “cookies” to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer’s hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We use “persistent cookies” to save your username and login password for future logins to the Sites. We use “session ID cookies” to enable certain features of the ESTV Services, to better understand how you interact with the ESTV Services and to monitor web traffic routing on the Sites and aggregate usage of the ESTV Services. You can instruct your browser, by changing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all portions of the Sites or all functionality of the ESTV Services.
f. Third party advertisers on the Sites may also place or read cookies on your computer’s browser, which permit them to collect information about users who view or interact with their advertisements. The collection and use of such information are subject to such third party’s privacy policy. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to these Sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
g. We and our service providers may also use other technologies that are similar to cookies, such as browser storage and plugins and web beacons (also known as clear gifs or pixel tags). Like cookies, some of these technologies may store small amounts of data on your device. We may use these and various other technologies for similar purposes as cookies, such as to enforce our terms, prevent fraud, and analyze the use of the ESTV Service. There are various ways to exercise choice regarding these technologies. For example, many popular browsers provide the ability to clear browser storage, commonly in the settings or preferences area; see your browser’s help function or support area to learn more.
