You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. However, if you turn off cookies, then you may not be able to utilize certain features of the Services.

This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies and other technologies by these Services only.
C8KE or an affiliate network (each an "Affiliate Network Partner") may drop cookies on your device and/or web browser or utilize other tracking technologies. For example, once you click on a particular link, you will be directed by C8KE or the Affiliate Network Partner to a merchant’s e-commerce site, at which point C8KE or the Affiliate Network Partner will drop a cookie on your browser. Among other reasons, these cookies are dropped so that our Services can monetize visits to Influencers and other actions.
C8KE may also utilize third party tracking technology, such as deep linking, to leverage cross-app and cross-site functionality.
Another tracking technology is a script that collects device information to permit what is known as device fingerprinting. (see, e.g., FTC Consumer Guide on Online Tracking - What is device fingerprinting?) For example, this data collection may permit generation of device fingerprints and cross-device profiles to better understand who visits particular Influencers, how often, unique visits, repeat visits, and more.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that C8KE is not liable for the content or use of personal information by third parties, including, without limitation, SNS, Influencers and Merchants, and including their use of cookies and other tracking technologies. You should consult the privacy policies and terms of service for those individual websites and services.
By agreeing to the terms of this Policy and by using our Services, you consent to the cookies and other tracking technologies referenced above. In order for you to be a registered and active user of the Services, you must agree to accept cookies and other tracking technologies. If you wish to opt-out of cookies and other tracking technologies altogether, then visit our Choice/Opt-Out Section.

9. Security.
Although we work to protect your data, we cannot warrant or ensure its ultimate security.
To protect your privacy and security, we take reasonable steps (such as requesting a unique password) to verify your identity before creating your account. The user who created the account is responsible for maintaining the secrecy of their unique password and account information at all times.
We use what we believe to be appropriate procedures to protect information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, information you elect to post on our Services, emails and other information you send to us are not encrypted and such transmissions cannot be considered a secure means of transmitting sensitive information.
You should be aware of the limitations of security, authentication, encryption, and privacy measures used in connection with the Internet and that any information you transmit through the Services may be damaged, corrupted, "sniffed" and/or accessed by another person without your permission. Regardless of the precautions taken by you or by us, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet. Third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the Services. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private. We cannot ensure or warrant the ultimate security of any information you transmit.
