This Notice describes our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information.

This Notice does not apply to: (i) information collected by us or by any other means, including any other website operated by Montecito, unless such website specifically incorporates the terms of this Notice; (ii) any third party, including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on the Site; (iii) any personal information that you provide directly to third party websites or services; and (iv) any publicly available personal information.

Please read this policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. This policy may change from time to time (see “Changes to Our Privacy Notice”).

Information provided by you, such as your name, postal address, email address, phone number, or any other personally identifying information you provide us.

Cookies and Other Data Collection Technologies

Our Site may use first-party and third-party “cookies” and other similar technologies to collect and use information about you while you use the Site and other websites you may visit (collectively, “Data Collection Technologies”). We deploy or allow these Data Collection Technologies on the Site for a variety of reasons, including to ensure the Site operates properly, to enhance the Site and the experience of Site visitors, for record-keeping purposes, to track how website visitors interact with the Site and other analytic purposes, and for advertising, including serving you advertisements that you may be interested in across different websites.

Cookies are small text files that are sent to or accessed from your web browser or your computer’s hard drive.
