provider, and ip address. We don't track any personal information
unless it is provided to us by you.

Cookies
Assisted-living-directory.com uses cookies. "Cookies"

We also use third party advertisements on canadarentals.net to

as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which
will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google
AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP
, the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether
you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting
purposes (showing New York real estate ads to someone in New York,
for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited
(such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites).
Cookie Management
You can generally make your browser accept or not accept cookies
by going to Tools>>Options and then into your Privacy tab
in Firefox, or Tools>>Internet Options in Internet Explorer.
Other browsers should have a similar feature.
You can chose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or
third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences
in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can
affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other
websites. This could include the inability to login to services
or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.
Deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently opted out of
any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow
cookies, the next time you visit a site running the advertisements,
a new cookie will be added.
DoubleClick DART cookies
We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s

browsing the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising
(including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is used
to serve ads specific to you and your interests (”interest

sites about visiting Phoenix, you may see Phoenix hotel advertisements
when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about hockey).
DART uses “non personally identifiable information”.
It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name,
email address, physical address, telephone number, social security
numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can opt-out
