Cellbits.com uses Google Analytics, Google’s website statistical analysis tool to better understand how visitors engage with our website. Google Analytics collects information anonymously. It reports website trends, but does not identify individual visitors. Analytics uses its own seperate cookie to track visitor interactions. The cookie is used to store information, such as when the current visit occurred, whether a visitor has been to the site before, and what site referred the visitor to the web page. A different cookie is used for each website using Google Analytics, and visitors are not tracked across multiple sites. The information collected includes: referring websites, country and city, length of visit, ISP and other similar non-personally identifiable information. To block this type of cookie, some browsers indicate when a cookie is being sent and will allow you to decline cookies on an individual basis. In addition to declining cookies case-by-case, you can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out add-on in your browser, which blocks Google Analytics from collecting information about your website visits.

We also use third party advertisements on Cellbits.com.  Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed.  This is generally used for geo-targeting purposes (showing Illinois real estate ads to someone in Illinois, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing video game ads to someone who frequents game sites).

Currently, Cellbits.com uses the Google, Inc. AdSense program to supply advertisements on our site. Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on Cellbits.com. Google's use of the Doubleclick DART cookie enables it to serve ads to visitors based on their visit to Cellbits.com and other sites on the Internet.

We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements).  This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests (”interest based targeting”).  The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history (For example, if you have been viewing sites about surfing, you may see surfing equipment or surf trip adventure ads when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about hockey).  DART uses “non personally identifiable information”.  It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers.  You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx
