For example, you may see certain ads on the PrivateNurseGig.com website or other websites because we contract with Google and other similar companies to target our ads based on information we or they have collected, including information that was collected through automated means (such as cookies and web beacons). These companies also use automated technologies to collect information when you click on our ads, which helps track and manage the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. You may opt out of the automated collection of information by third-party ad networks (for the purpose of delivering advertisements tailored to your interests), by visiting the consumer opt-out page for the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and edit/opt-out of your Google Display Network ads’ preferences at thttp://www.google.com/ads/preferences/. Because these opt-out and preference control pages are specific to the individual browser used to visit it, and because that page is not operated by MD Extension, LLC, dba PrivateNurseGig.com we are unable to perform the opt-outs on your behalf.
