Tracking User Information
Kalahari Kanvas, a Canvas and Tent brand, gathers the following information about our website users:
-
Data provided by users through voluntary registration on our site
-
Aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our site.
This information enables Canvas and Tent to:
-
Better tailor our content to the readers’ needs
-
And help our advertisers better understand the demographics of our customer.
Because we derive a portion of our revenue from advertising, providing such aggregated demographic data is essential in order to keep some of our services free to users. If you have any questions regarding the above statement, please direct them here.
Surveys
Canvas and Tent occasionally conducts customer surveys as they aid our marketing department to better target content and product inventory to our audience. We do sometimes share the aggregated demographic information from these surveys with our advertisers and partners. User information is, however, never shared with any third party—except as noted previously.
Usage Tracking
This information enables Canvas and Tent to:
-
Overall usage statistics—according to a user’s domain name
-
Browser type
-
MIME type—information obtained from the browser string.
We also track and catalogue the search terms that customers enter into our search toolbar. This tracking is never associated with individual users.
Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that websites can write to your hard drive when a user visits their web page. A cookie file contains information such as a user ID which the site uses to track the pages you’ve visited. A cookie only contains personal information supplied by a user— it can’t read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites.
A user can set their browser to warn them before accepting cookies, or you can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser.
Use Of The Information
Canvas and Tent uses information voluntarily given by our Kalahari Kanvas site users to enhance their experience of the site. This information can be used to:
-
Provide interactive or personalised elements on the site
-
And create content specific to the interests of our users
We use tracking information to determine:
-
Which areas of our site users like
-
And which areas of our site users don’t like.
We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This data helps us continue to build a better service for you. We track search terms to measure what our users are interested in. We don’t track which terms a particular user enters.
From the Kalahari Kanvas site, Canvas and Tent creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers and partners. This allows our advertisers to:
-

We use this information to tailor our content to:
-
Suit the consumers’ needs

And help our advertisers better understand who the Canvas and Tent consumer is
We do not share information about individual users with any third party, with the exceptions noted previously.
