Tip n' Tag may allow third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve advertisements on the website and related phone application(s). These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on Tip n' Tag. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content. Tip n' Tag does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent. However, please note that if an advertiser asks Tip n' Tag to show an advertisement to a certain audience and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. The Tip n' Tag Privacy Policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, third-party advertisers. Please consult the respective privacy policies of such advertisers for more information.

If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information.
