We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

     

    Time Limit

We collect this information to better tailor our site and our products to your interests and needs. Cookies may also be used to help speed up your future activities on our site. For example, a site can recognize that you have provided Personal Data to use and refrain from requesting the same information a second time. Most browsers are initially set to accept a cookie. Cookies may be disabled by the individual visitor, although refusal of cookies at the site may result in an inability to visit certain areas of the site or to receive personalized information when visiting the site.

    In addition, we are constantly trying to improve how we promote our websites. To help us do this, we may measure the effectiveness of our web presence by determining when you accessed the NeoVos Websites, and what you clicked on within our site.

Information about your computer, such as your IP address (a number assigned to your computer whenever you surf the Internet), the type of Internet browser you are using and the type of operating system you are using may also be collected and linked to your Personal Data. This is to ensure that the NeoVos Websites presents the best web experience for visitors, and that they are effective information resources.

For example, website usage information about visitors to the NeoVos Websites may be shared with our third party advertising agency in order to better target Internet banner advertisements on the NeoVos Websites. The information collected through the use of these pixel tags is not, however, personally identifiable, although it could be linked to an individual’s Personal Data.
