Advertising & Tracking

Tracking and Online Advertising

We use third party advertising and media companies to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet and to help manage and optimize our Internet business and communications. Through the use of cookies and Action Tags (commonly referred to as Web beacons or GIF tags), which are inserted in various places within our Web site, such third party companies may collect anonymous information about your visits to the Global Opportunity Group site and your interaction with our ads and content. For instance, they may keep track of how many of our ads you have seen on other web sites before visiting our Web site. This information is used to understand your browsing behavior and interests so that we can identify your financial needs and provide service and advertising that is tailored to you.


Behavioral Targeting

The third party companies we use for online tracking have a network of advertising companies and may share anonymous information about your visits to globaloppgroup.com and other Web sites with us, and may use it in order to provide ads about goods and services of interest to you and which would be relevant to you, based on your browsing on globaloppgroup.com. From time to time, we may also share anonymous information with such third party companies in an aggregate form, for purposes of analysis and improvement of our Web site. If you would like more information about the use of third-party cookies and tags, or the process of opting out of such cookies or tags, please go to (External)www.networkadvertising.org.


Geolocation Data

Global Opportunity Group does not access location data stored on your mobile device without your permission. Some features will not fully function unless you have enabled access to your location data.


Social Media

Social Media

Global Opportunity Group maintains information on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. When you post information on Global Opportunity Group social media pages it will be subject to the privacy and security conditions of the social media site. When you log into Global Opportunity Group owned social media properties, we collect information about your activities on those properties. The information we review includes whether you visited or commented on a blog or provided a rating.

Global Opportunity Group mobile applications are not socially enabled and do not allow you to connect to and share information with a community of other users, such as Facebook or Twitter, or the general public, such as YouTube.


Your Options

Online Tracking and Advertising

Global Opportunity Group uses third-party advertising networks to distribute our advertisements on other websites and mobile applications where we have paid to advertise. These advertisements may use tracking technologies to capture certain information, such as IP address, usage information, or your responsiveness to our advertisements. However, the technologies used do not capture information that identifies you individually. Global Opportunity Group does participate in third party ad network self-regulatory programs for online behavioral advertising.

Pursuant to these programs, Global Opportunity Group honors Do Not Track opt-out preferences that you make to third party advertising networks that we hire to perform online advertising on our behalf.

Two examples are the: (External)Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising and (External)DoubleClick. Click on either or both of these links to stop online advertising from Global Opportunity Group by either of these ad programs. You can also help limit the amount of online advertising you receive by visiting (External)www.networkadvertising.org to opt-out of advertising from Network Advertising Initiative member companies.

We do not deliver online advertising to customers that have opted out from the receipt of commercial email from Global Opportunity Group when an online advertising campaign utilizes customer email addresses in connection with a hashing process that anonymously matches our ads to our customers who have a presence on select websites.

Global Opportunity Group does not provide a Do Not Track opt-out mechanism to prevent online advertising to you. Instead, we utilize the established industry mechanisms discussed above.

Global Opportunity Group does not respond to a do-not-track signal from your browser. See (External)www.networkadvertising.org for information on how to opt out from third party cookies or tags. As noted above, when you use Global Opportunity Group’s web sites, third parties used by Global Opportunity Group may collect certain information which does not identify you individually on the Global Opportunity Group web sites or on other sites where Global Opportunity Group advertises. Please review the Privacy Policies of all web sites you visit to ascertain the type of information collected on those sites. The type of personal information that Global Opportunity Group collects online about you is identified above under heading Personal Information and Data, subsection: We Collect Personal Information About You When.


Location Tracking

Online advertising that relies on location tracking can be prevented by refusing to grant permission to use location data stored on your device. You can also set your device to block access to location data stored on your device. Refer to the user guide for your device.
