Personal information

Emoticon Central only collects personally identifiable information from the visitors to our website on a voluntary basis. This information is only collected through your input, for example in our contact form, and is never obtained without your knowing.

The information received will be used only to respond to visitor inquiries and will not be provided to third parties under any terms.

Use of cookies and web beacons

Emoticon Central may use cookies to help you personalise your online experience. Cookies are identifiers that are transferred to your web browser and stored on your computer's hard drive to enable our system to recognise your browser on subsequent visits to the site.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying settings in your browser. You also may choose to automatically delete cookies upon closing your browser.

As you browse this website, Google Analytics cookies will be placed on your computer to collect demographic and interest information, but we do not tie the cookie to any personal information that you provide to us. If you do not wish your data to be collected via Google Analytics, you may use their opt-out tool: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/ (the link will open in a new browser window or tab).

A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor your journey around a single website or collection of sites. They are commonly used by sites that utilise third-party services to monitor traffic. They may be used in association with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the content on the pages of a website.

We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our website. These companies use cookies and web beacons in their ads to ascertain how many times you've seen an advertisement. No personally identifiable information you give us is provided to them for cookie or web beacon use, so they cannot personally identify you with that information from our website.

Browsers can be set up to accept or reject cookies automatically, or notify you when a cookie is being requested. Privacy software can be used to override web beacons. Taking either of these actions will not cause a problem with our site, should you so choose.
