This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Service.
    2. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 8.a. above: (i) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our respective intellectual property rights.

To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
    6. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND VDP AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

While VDP is not currently a covered business under the CCPA, we value privacy and strive to be transparent with our customers.
    • Additional Privacy Rights for California Residents.
      1. Opt-out of "Sales or Sharing". California residents may opt-out of the "sale or sharing" of their personal information by contacting us as set forth in "Contact Information" below.

    1. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
      1. Description of the Technologies. We as well as third parties that provide the content, advertising, or other functionality on the Services may use Technologies to automatically collect information through your use of the Services. The following describes some of these Technologies we may use for this automatic data collection:
    • (i) Cookies. A cookie is a small data file stored on the hard drive of your computer either for (a) the duration of your visit on a website ("session cookies") or (b) for a fixed period ("persistent cookies"). Cookies contain information that can later be read by a web server. We may use cookies to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on the Services. We use the persistent and session cookies set forth here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/cookies
    • (ii) Web Beacons. Web beacons are small files that are embedded in webpages, applications, and emails (also known as "clear gifs", "pixel tags", "web bugs", and "single-pixel gifs") that collect information about engagement on our Services. For example, web beacons allow us to track who has visited those webpages or opened an email, to test the effectiveness of our marketing, and for other related website statistics.
    • (iii) JavaScripts. JavaScripts are code snippets embedded in various parts of websites and applications that facilitate a variety of operations including accelerating the refresh speed of certain functionality or monitoring usage of various online components.
    • (iv) Entity Tags. Entity Tags are HTTP code mechanisms that allow portions of websites to be stored or "cached" within your browser and validates these caches when the website is opened, accelerating website performance since the web server does not need to send a full response if the content has not changed.
    • (v) HTML5 Local Storage. HTML5 local storage allows data from websites to be stored or "cached" within your browser to store and retrieve data in HTML5 pages when the website is revisited.
    • (vi) Resettable Device Identifiers. Resettable device identifiers (also known as "advertising identifiers") are similar to cookies and are found on many mobile devices and tablets (for example, the "Identifier for Advertisers" or "IDFA" on Apple iOS devices and the "Google Advertising ID" on Android devices), and certain streaming media devices. Like cookies, resettable device identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant.
      1. Our Uses of the Technologies. We may also use these technologies for security purposes, to facilitate navigation, to display information more effectively, and to better serve you with more tailored information, as well as for site administration purposes, e.g., to gather statistical information about the usage of our websites in order to continually improve the design and functionality, to understand how users use our websites, and to assist us with resolving questions regarding use of the websites.
      2. Mechanisms to Control Cookies and Other Technologies. You may be able to set your browser to reject cookies and certain other technologies by adjusting the appropriate settings in your browser. Each browser is different, but many common browsers have preferences that may be adjusted to allow you to either accept or reject cookies and certain other technologies before they are set or installed, or allow you to remove or reject the use or installation of certain technologies altogether. We recommend that you refer to the “Help” menu in your browser to learn how to modify your browser settings. Please note that you cannot remove Flash cookies simply by changing your browser settings. To learn how you can manage your Flash cookie settings, visit the Flash player settings page on Adobe's website. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Services may become inaccessible or may not function properly.
      3. Third Party Technologies. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by VDP Reports and does not cover the use of tracking technologies by any third parties. The Services may contain links, content, advertising, or references to other websites or applications run by third parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you interact with their content on the Services, such as member recruitment vendors to using Web beacons and cookies on our registration pages for payment verification. The information they collect may be associated with your Personal Information or they may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites. Please be aware that we do not control these third parties' tracking technologies or when and how they may be used. Therefore, VDP does not claim nor accept responsibility for any privacy policies, practices, or procedures of any such third party.
