To do this, we use several common tracking tools. Our vendors may also use these tools. In this policy “we” and “us” refers to both Triple E Canada Ltd. and our vendors. These tools may include browser cookies. We may also use web beacons, pixels, flash cookies, and similar technologies.
This page summarizes our use of common tracking tools. For more information, please read our Privacy Policy. To submit a Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information request, or to opt out of certain forms of targeted advertising on our websites, see Section 7 below.

3. We engage in interest-based advertising.
We and our partners display interest-based advertising using information gathered about you over time across multiple websites or other platforms. This might include apps.
Interest-based advertising or “online behavioral advertising” includes ads served to you after you leave our website, encouraging you to return. They also include ads we think are relevant based on your browsing habits or online activities. These ads might be served on websites or on apps. They might also be served in emails. We might serve these ads, or third parties may serve ads. They might be about our products or other companies’ products.
4. How do we gather relevant information about you for interest-based advertising?
To decide what is relevant to you, we use information you make available to us when you interact with us, our affiliates, and other third parties. We gather this information using the tracking tools described above. For example, we or our partners might look at your purchases or browsing behaviors. We might look at these activities on our websites or the websites of others.
We work with third parties who help gather this information. These third parties might link your name or email address to other information they collect. That might include past purchases made offline or online. Or, it might include online usage information.
5. You can control certain tracking tools.
Your browser may give you the ability to control cookies. How you do so depends on the type of cookie. Certain browsers can be set to reject browser cookies. To control Flash cookies, which we may use on certain websites from time to time, you can go here. Why? Because Flash cookies cannot be controlled through your browser settings.
Our Do Not Track Policy: Some browsers have “do not track” features that allow you to tell a website not to track you. We will respond to opt-out preference signals to the extent required by applicable law for your browser or device, but we cannot link this information to your account and we do not respond to “do not track” signals.
If you block cookies, certain features on our sites may not work. If you block or reject cookies, not all of the tracking described here will stop.
The specific types of cookies and tracking tools served through our sites are described in more detail below.
