2. What Data Does Adventure Park USA Collect?
2.1 – What Data Does Adventure Park USA Collect?
We collect personal information and non-personal user data from the Service, as further described in this Privacy Notice. The specific data Adventure Park USA collects, stores and processes depends on which of our products and service you use and how you use them.
For purposes of this Privacy Notice, personal information means information that identifies, describes, and/or is reasonably capable of being associated with a particular consumer, and includes, without limitation, identifiers such as first and last name, home or other physical address, telephone number, online identifiers such as device ID, and email address, any payment or financial data, or any other identifier that permits us to contact a natural human person, like you, and/or any information that we maintain that could be used to identify you in combination with any of the identifying information described above.
Personal information does not include “aggregate” information, which is data we collect automatically about the use of the Site that cannot be reasonably linked to an individual. The Privacy Policy does not restrict or limit our collection and use of aggregate information, and we reserve the right to share such aggregate information within our organization, Licensor/Franchisor (defined below), potential partners, or other third parties without restriction.

We may use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, in order to better understand your use of our Site and how we can improve it. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit a website, what pages you visit when you do so, and what other websites you used prior to coming to such website. These services collect only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit a website, rather than your name or other identifying information.

Although these services place a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit a website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. Google utilizes the data collected to track and examine the use of the Site, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services. Google may use the data collected on the Site to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects on the Site, please review “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services” (located here or any successor URL).
