Collection of Information
How we collect and store information depends on how you access and use our website. We collect information in multiple ways including when you provide information directly to us, when you permit third parties to provide information to us, and when we passively collect information from you, such as information collected from your browser or device.

You may submit to us personal information that identifies you as an individual when you choose to interact with us on this website. Personal information that you may submit includes your name, e-mail address, postal address and telephone number. In some cases, you may also submit demographic information such as your age, gender, zip code, level of education, household income, and interests.

Children’s Personal Information
Our website is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from users under the age of 13. If we find out that we have such personal information, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Website Usage Information
Our website collects non-personally identifiable information such as navigational data (log files, server logs, click-stream) and information about how our website is used by you (through cookies or web beacons, etc.). A cookie is a file containing a unique identifier that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before the expiry date; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. We use both session and persistent cookies on our website.
We may also collect information such as the URL of the website you visited just before and just after our website and the time of day that you use our website. Analytics information also keeps track of the pages you visit within our website. You can set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent, or to refuse or delete cookies altogether, but in such cases, many features of our website will not function as designed. Additional information is collected through Google Remarketing. Google Remarketing is a remarketing and behavioral targeting service provided by Google. It connects the activity of hotstart.com with the Google Ads advertising network and the Google Marketing Platform Cookie. You can opt out of the cookie tracking here.
Google Remarketing provides a traffic measurement service that allows us to analyze how visitors use our website. Third-party advertising providers and advertisers may use this website usage information for, among other purposes, helping deliver advertisements to you that you might be interested in, to prevent you from seeing the same advertisements too many times and to conduct research regarding the usefulness of certain advertisements to you. Any cookies, web beacons and embedded scripts or other similar mechanisms used to collect website usage information from advertising providers, advertisers and traffic measurement services are governed by their respective privacy policies and not this privacy policy.
