In addition, we and/or third parties that advertise at the Website and through other types of media available at or through the Website may use cookies and pixel gifs to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website and/or for advertising tracking purposes.

THIRD PARTY COOKIES:  GreatFunGames™ delivers to your web browser many of the advertisements you see when you use the Website. However, GreatFunGames™ also allow other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within and/or on the Website. Because your web browser must request these advertising banners from the ad networks’ servers, these companies can send their own cookies to your cookie file, just as if you had requested a web page from the Website. Please note that if an Advertiser asks GreatFunGames™ to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 13-24 who have viewed sports content) and you respond to that ad, the Advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach.  However, GreatFunGames™ only authorizes our third-party ad servers to employ anonymous cookies for ad delivery and anonymous targeting.  To GreatFunGames™’ knowledge, the third-party ad servers do not collect personally identifying information about you.  In addition, GreatFunGames™ uses third-party service provider partners to employ anonymous cookies for accounting and data integrity purposes.

If you want to prevent a third-party ad server and/or third-party service provider from sending and reading cookies on your computer, currently you must visit each ad network's and service provider’s website individually and opt out (if they offer this capability).

Currently, we have relationships with the following third party service providers and/or may display the following third party ad server networks (click to visit their website).  In addition, we may at some point engage other third-party ad servers and/or third-party service providers in the future.
