5. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TRACKERS

Like most websites, the International Website uses cookies and similar trackers (such as pixels) to identify you and your device. For more information about the cookies we use, please visit the cookie preference centre (either by clicking “No, Adjust” when you first visit the International Website or by clicking on the floating fingerprint widget on the International Website).

Other than cookies and similar technologies that are required to operate the International Website, we will only use these technologies to the extent you have given us your consent to do so. You can tell us if you agree to all or certain types of cookies by updating your settings through our cookie preference centre. You can access the cookie preference centre, change your settings and withdraw your consent at any time by clicking on the floating fingerprint widget on the International Website.

6. ONLINE ADVERTISING

We work with online advertising networks, advertising partners and social media networks to tailor the ads played or displayed to you on other websites, apps and services.

How we use personal information to tailor advertising to you

The ads you see online are tailored to your interests based on information collected about you, including information about your age, demographic, location, as well as information about your internet usage over time, such as the websites you visit, the products and pages you view and the links you click on (including links in ads played or displayed to you).

Typically, this information is collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies. When you visit the International Website we will, if you give us your consent to do so, place cookies and similar tracking technologies on your device to:

  • Identify you and your device, and share this information with the relevant advertising networks, so that they can serve you advertising based on the information those advertising networks (or the partners they work with) have about your internet usage history;
  • Collect information about how you use the International Website so that, when you visit another website that works with the same advertising networks as us, we can play you adverts for the Jets, the NY Jets Fan Club, our online store and related activities, contests and events which are tailored to the pages and features of the International Website that you accessed.

How we use personal information to measure the effectiveness of our advertising

We and our advertising partners will measure the effectiveness of the advertising shown to you as you browse other websites, apps and services by assessing whether you visit the International Website or sign up to our newsletter or membership program after being shown an ad for the Jets, the NY Jets Fan Club, our online store or related activities, contests and events. This helps us and our advertising partners understand the effectiveness of our online advertising strategy.

If you accept advertising cookies and similar technologies on a website, app or service where advertising for the Jets, the NY Jets Fan Club, our online store or related activities, contests and events is played or displayed to you, our advertising partners will record that you have viewed this ad and if you clicked on it. If you then visit the International Website, sign up to our newsletter, join the NY Jets Fan Club, and you have agreed to the use of advertising cookies on the International Website, we and our advertising partners will record that you did so after seeing a relevant ad.

Controlling the ads you see online

We will only collect, use and share information about your use of the International Website for advertising purposes to the extent you have given us your consent to do so. You can customise your preferences at any time by clicking on the floating fingerprint widget on the International Website.

You can also update what information is used on your social media account to advertise products to you by updating your profile or account settings on the relevant social media platform.

Withdrawing or withholding consent to the use of advertising cookies, or changing your advertising preferences on your social media account, will mean that information about your use of the International Website or your interaction with our social media pages will not be collected and shared with advertising networks to allow us to target advertising on other websites.

If you opt out of advertising by withholding or withdrawing your consent to advertising cookies, you will still get ads when you browse the internet, and those ads may still be relevant to your interests. However, this advertising may be based on the content of the site you visit or, for advertising on social media, your approximate location or demographic information associated with your social media profile, rather than your recent browsing activity. As a result, you may still see advertising for the Jets, the NY Jets Fan Club or other topics relevant to your location, demographic or other information on the websites you visit even if you reject cookies on the International Website.
