Cookies and Other Technologies

• When Users register themselves on the Website, information in the form of a very small bit of code is sent by Goat Events’s API to the User's device. This code is unique to each User. It enables seamless travel across the Website, allowing users to use the Website without having to enter its password frequently or fill out registration forms with information User has already provided.

• Goat Events uses cookies on certain pages of the Website to help analyse the Website web page flow, deliver ads that relate to User’s interests, measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns and promote trust and safety. Goat Events offers certain features that are only available through the use of a “cookie”. Cookies can also help Goat Events to provide information that is targeted to the User’s interests. Most cookies are “session cookies”, meaning that they are automatically deleted from the User’s hard drive at the end of a session. Users are always free to decline Goat Events’s cookies by disabling cookies in their internet browser, although in that case the User may not be able to use certain features on the Website and the User may be required to re-enter its password more frequently during a session. If the User chooses to avail Goat Events’s Services on the Website, Goat Events collects information about User behaviour.

• Additionally, the User may encounter "cookies" or other similar devices on certain pages of the Website that are placed by third parties. Goat Events does not control the use of cookies by third parties.

Access to User Information

• Goat Events provides Users with the means to ensure that their User Details are correct and current. Users may review and update this information at any time by logging into their Account. Users can also change their passwords and other details related to their profile by logging into their account. At the time of updating User Details, Goat Events may ask Users to verify User identity before Goat Events can act on User’s request.

• Goat Events may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems).

• Goat Events shall provide information access and correction for free. Goat Events aims to maintain Services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction.
