We collect the following types of information about you:
Information you provide us directly:
We may ask for certain information such as your username, real name, birthdate,
address, phone number and e-mail address when you register for a James Gonzales Consulting
account, or if you correspond with us. We may also retain any messages you send through the
Service, and may collect information you provide in User Content you post to the Service. We use
this information to operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of the
Service. Your username and if you choose to disclose it, your real name, will be published
publicly. Once published your username and / or real name may not be able to be removed.
Information we may receive from third parties:
We may receive information about you from third parties. For example, if you access our
websites or Service through a third-party connection or log-in, for example, through Facebook
Connect, by “following,” “liking,” adding the James Gonzales Consulting application, linking
your account to the James Gonzales Consulting Service, etc., that third party may pass certain
information about your use of its service to James Gonzales Consulting. This information could
include, but is not limited to, the user ID associated with your account (for example, your
Facebook UID), an access token necessary to access that service, any information that you have
permitted the third party to share with us, and any information you have made public in
connection with that service. If you allow us access to your friends list, your friends’ user
IDs, and your connection to those friends, may be used and stored to make your experience more
social, and to allow you to invite your friends to use our Service as well as provide you with
updates if and when your friends join James Gonzales Consulting. You should always review, and
if necessary, adjust your privacy settings on third-party websites and services before linking
or connecting them to the James Gonzales Consulting Service. You may also unlink your third
party account from the Service by adjusting your settings on the third party service.
Inviting a friend to use James Gonzales Consulting:
James Gonzales Consulting may, in its sole discretion, develop a feature that allows
you to invite third parties to the Service. If you choose to use our invitation service to
invite a third party to the Service through our “Invite friends” feature, you may directly
choose a friend to invite through your mobile device’s native contact list – but we do not
require that you import your contacts list to the Service, and we do not retain the information
contained in your contacts list. You understand that by inviting a friend to James Gonzales
Consulting through the “Invite friends” feature, you are directly sending a text or email from
your personal accounts and that we are not storing your contact list. In addition, you
understand and agree that normal carrier charges apply to communications sent from you phone.
Since this invitation is coming directly from your email or phone, we do not have access to or
control this communication.
Finding your friends on the Service:
James Gonzales Consulting may, in its sole discretion, develop a feature that allows
you to locate your friends with James Gonzales Consulting accounts through a “Find friends”
feature. The “Find friends” feature allows you to choose to locate friends either through (i)
your contact list, (ii) social media sites (such as Twitter or Facebook) or (iii) through a
search of names and usernames on James Gonzales Consulting. If you choose to find your friends
through your contact list, then you agree to provide James Gonzales Consulting access to your
contact list such that we can perform the search necessary to determine whether or not someone
associated with the information you provide is using James Gonzales Consulting. If you choose to
find your friends through social media sites, then you understand that the information these
sites provide to use to conduct this type of search is governed by their privacy policies and
your account settings on those sites. If you choose to find your friends through a search of
names or usernames, then simply type a name to search and see if that name or username appears
on our Service. Note that we do not retain any information contained in your contacts list, or
information from social media sites about your contacts, and we do not use such information for
any purpose other than to help you find your friends on James Gonzales Consulting.
Analytics information:
We may directly collect analytics data, or use third-party analytics tools and
services, to help us measure traffic and usage trends for the Service. These tools collect
information sent by your browser or mobile device, including the pages you visit and other
information that assists us in improving the Service. We collect and use this analytics
information in aggregate form such that it cannot reasonably be manipulated to identify any
particular individual user.

one or more cookies — a small text file containing a string of alphanumeric characters — to your
computer that uniquely identifies your browser and lets James Gonzales Consulting help you log
in faster and enhance your navigation through the site. A cookie may also convey information to
us about how you use the Service (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click and other
actions you take on the Service), and allow us or our business partners to track your usage of
the Service over time. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive after you close your

Service may not function properly if the ability to accept cookies is disabled. Full details can
be found on our Cookie Policy.
Log file information:
Log file information is automatically reported by your browser or mobile device each
time you access the Service. When you use our Service, our servers automatically record certain
log file information. These server logs may include anonymous information such as your web
request, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, referring / exit pages and URLs, number
of clicks and how you interact with links on the Service, domain names, landing pages, pages
viewed, and other such information.
Clear gifs/web beacons information:
When you use the Service, we may employ clear gifs (also known as web beacons) which
are used to anonymously track the online usage patterns of our Users. In addition, we may also
use clear gifs in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened and which
links are clicked by recipients. The information is allows for more accurate reporting and
improvement of the Service.
Device identifiers:
When you access the Service by or through a mobile device (including but not limited to
smart-phones or tablets), we may access, collect, monitor and/or remotely store one or more
“device identifiers,” such as a universally unique identifier (“UUID”). Device identifiers are
small data files or similar data structures stored on or associated with your mobile device,
which uniquely identify your mobile device. A device identifier may be data stored in connection
with the device hardware, data stored in connection with the device’s operating system or other
software, or data sent to the device by James Gonzales Consulting. A device identifier may
convey information to us about how you browse and use the Service. A device identifier may
remain persistently on your device, to help you log in faster and enhance your navigation
through the Service. Some features of the Service may not function properly if use or
availability of device identifiers is impaired or disabled.
Location data:
When you access the Service by or through a mobile device, we may access, collect,
monitor and/or remotely store “location data,” which may include GPS coordinates (e.g. latitude
and/or longitude) or similar information regarding the location of your mobile device. Location
data may convey to us information about how you browse and use the Service. Some features of the
Service, particularly location-based services, may not function properly if use or availability
of location data is impaired or disabled.
Commercial and marketing communications:
We use the information we collect or receive, such as your email address, to
communicate directly with you. We may send you emails containing newsletters, promotions, and
special offers. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you will be given the option
to opt out or change your preferences. We also use your information to send you Service-related
emails (e.g., account verification, purchase and billing confirmations and reminders,
changes/updates to features of the Service, technical and security notices). You may not opt out
of Service-related emails. You may also be able to be “found” on James Gonzales Consulting based
on information that you provide (see “Find friends on James Gonzales Consulting”) above.
Use of certain service type information we collect about you:
We use or may use cookies, log file, device identifiers, location data and clear gifs

information; (c) to provide and monitor the effectiveness of our Service; (d) monitor aggregate
metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, and demographic patterns; (e) diagnose or fix

Sharing certain service type information we collect about you:
We may share certain service type information, including information obtained through
tools such as cookies, log files, device identifiers, location data and clear gifs (such as

Ads on James Gonzales Consulting:
We may also share certain information such as your location, browser, and cookie data
and other data relating to your use of our Service with our business partners to deliver
advertisements (“ads”) that may be of interest to you. James Gonzales Consulting may allow
third-party ad servers or ad networks to serve advertisements on the Service. These third-party
ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser or mobile device, the
ads and ad links that appear on the Service, and will automatically receive your IP address when
they do so. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, device
identifiers, location data, and clear gifs, see above) to compile information about your
browser’s or device’s visits and usage patterns on the Service and on other websites, and to
measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize the advertising content delivered to
you.
For example, Google uses DART cookies in order to deliver ads to you through the
Service. Google's use of the DART cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based
on your visit to the Service and previous websites that you may have visited. Other advertising
networks also use similar cookies, clear gifs, or other mechanisms to deliver targeted
advertising to you through the Service. You can delete these cookies by following the
instructions here: http://www.James Gonzales Consulting.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cookies . You
may opt out of use of Google’s DART cookie and cookies placed by Network Advertising Initiative
(NAI) certified ad networks here: http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp .
Opting out of these cookies will be effective not only on the Service, but on all websites with
NAI certified advertising networks. However, these opt-outs will be ineffective on networks that
are not NAI certified.
Please note that an advertiser may ask James Gonzales Consulting to show an ad to a
certain audience of Users (e.g., based on demographics or other interests). In that situation,
James Gonzales Consulting or our Partners determines the target audience and James Gonzales
Consulting serves the advertising to that audience and only provides anonymous data to the
advertiser. If you respond to such an ad, the advertiser or ad server may conclude that you fit
the description of the audience they are trying to reach.
To enhance your user experience or help us improve and measure our effectiveness, James
Gonzales Consulting may embed code from third parties on the Service. Examples of such parties
may include Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google, YouTube, Howcast, VideoJug, AOL, and others.
These third parties may collect information about you including IP address, cookies in ways

the activities of third-parties. Please consult the respective privacy policies of such third
parties or contact such third parties for more information.
