What this policy does not cover
We will update this Privacy Policy from time to time, so please review it regularly. If we materially alter this Privacy Policy, we will update the “Effective Date” at the top of this page and inform you by posting a notice on the Nucasa Site or by otherwise notifying you. Your continued use of the Site will be deemed your agreement that your Personal Information may be used in accordance with the new Privacy Policy.
For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” is any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with you.
When you use the Site, we may collect the following categories of Personal Information:
Cookies are small text documents that often include an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website on the internet, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookies to your browser if your browser preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent by others.
You can manage or disable cookies on your device by using the tools in your browser. If you choose to disable cookies, the cookies will not be used. However, if you do choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, it may affect the features and functionality of the Site.
We may use third-party analytics services to help us understand and improve the usage of the Site and our email and other communications. We may also use third-party services to serve ads when you use the Site and/or when you use other websites and services and to send informational and marketing emails. These services may collect your personal identifiers (like your IP address, device and browser identifiers and characteristics, and cookie information) and web browsing activity by placing cookies and using similar technology. See “Information we automatically collect with cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies” above for more information about cookies and how we use them. The third party providers who maintain these services may use the information they collect to provide us with analytical information that we use to improve the Site and our emails and other communications. They may also use the information they collect to provide advertisements to you, to show you content on other websites and services, and/or to combine the information they collect with information they have collected elsewhere.
We currently use Google Analytics to collect and process certain usage data on the Site. To learn more about Google Analytics and how to opt out, please visit: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Nucasa has pages on social media services like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. When you interact with us on these pages or engage with our brand elsewhere on social media, we may collect information such as your likes, interests, feedback, preferences, and messages to us. We may collect additional information from social media companies if you choose to share with them and they, in turn, share that information with us.
Please note that any posts you make on our social media pages (and any pictures, comments, or Personal Information you include when you post) are available to others who use or view those pages. Please be careful with your information and make sure that the content you share is information you are comfortable making public, since neither you nor we can control what others do with your information once you post it.
We may collect aggregated and de-identified information, and we may also de-identify and aggregate other information we receive. We use and disclose this information for legitimate business purposes.
We use the Personal Information listed above for our business and commercial purposes. The specific uses of each category may vary depending on how you interact with us. For example, we may use your information for the purposes described below:
