Notice to New Jersey Users of the Service
Under the New Jersey Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty and Notice ACT (“TCCWNA”), N.J.S.A. 56:12-14 et seq., consumers may not be offered any written contract that includes any provision that violates any clearly established legal right of a consumer, or responsibility of a seller, as established by state or federal law. Consequently, and for the avoidance of doubt, no provision in these Terms of Use shall apply to any consumer in New Jersey if the provision violates any such clearly established legal right or responsibility, including, but not limited to, grounds for redress under or in the event of: (i) seller’s tortious actions (e.g., negligence, failure to exercise a basic standard of care, failure to avoid creating an unreasonable risk of harm); (ii) the New Jersey Products Liability Act, N.J.S.A. 2A:58C-1, et seq. (i.e., the statutorily imposed duty to refrain from manufacturing and selling dangerous products, with the possibility of punitive damages for violations thereof); (iii) the New Jersey Punitive Damages Act, N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.9, et seq. (i.e., the statutory right to pursue punitive damages in the event of harm caused by actual malice, wanton and willful disregard, reckless indifference); (iv) the New Jersey Uniform Commercial Code (i.e., a comprehensive statutory regime governing the rights and duties of buyers and sellers with respect to contracts for the sale of goods, with the possibility of damages for economic and property harm); and (v) seller’s failure to reasonably protect against harm arising from certain criminal acts of third parties (e.g., computer hacking and identity theft, as regulated by the Federal Trade Commission and the Federal Communications Commission, and as governed by the New Jersey Identity Theft Protection Act, N.J.S.A.56:8-161, et seq., and the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, N.J.S.A. 56:8-3, et seq.). In addition, under the TCCWNA, no consumer contract may state that any of its provisions is or may be void, unenforceable or inapplicable in some jurisdictions without specifying which provisions are or are not void, unenforceable or inapplicable in New Jersey. With respect to these Terms of Use, in the section on Limitations of Liability, the provision concerning the exclusion or limitation of certain damages is not applicable in New Jersey with respect to punitive damages, loss of data, and loss of or damage to property.

ADVERTISING, ANALYTICS AND PRIVACY
Advertising is a core part of the Feker family of businesses. Many of our free Services, such as Bawza.com, are supported by the ads we display on those Services. We also provide a variety of online advertising services through the Ethiopian Yellow Pages to other companies that want to place ads on our Services and elsewhere.
The ads we display are more effective when they are shown to users who are likely to be interested in the product or service advertised. For this reason, we use the data we collect and receive to help us choose which ads to show to users. This page provides more information about how advertising works on our Services and the choices you have about that advertising. It also explains how we work with analytics providers, which are companies that help us understand how people use our Services and respond to the ads we serve.
The Ads We Show You
Through the Ethiopian Yellow Pages, we provide ads on our websites and apps, as well as on other companies’ websites and apps. Some of the ads we show you are based upon the content of the page or app you are viewing. These kinds of ads are sometimes called “contextual ads.”
Other ads we show you may be based upon information we have collected or received about your activities and interests across your linked devices. These ads are sometimes called “interest-based” ads. Some interest-based ads are based only upon an isolated online activity, such as if you were to go to an online bookstore and look at a particular novel. The bookseller might want to show you an ad for that novel because you’re probably more interested in buying it than the average online user. This kind of interest-based advertising is sometimes called “retargeting” or “remarketing.”
Other interest-based ads are shown based upon your online activities over time and across different websites and apps used on your various devices. Advertising companies, including Ethiopian Yellow Pages, may collect information about your online activities in this way in order to make predictions about what products or services may be of interest to you. Based upon these predictions, we and other companies may categorize you as belonging to a “segment” of users to which advertisers may be interested in showing ads. For example, if you’ve recently visited car dealers’ websites, you might be grouped in an “Auto Intenders” segment, and a car dealer who places ads with Ethiopian Yellow Pages might want its ads to be shown to the users, like you, who are in this segment.
Feker is committed to complying with self-regulatory requirements for online advertising. These programs include standards restricting the use of sensitive financial account number data and other types of sensitive data as defined by these programs. For example, we do not use or allow others to use sensitive data to determine eligibility for health insurance, life insurance, or employment. We also do not target ads to users based upon sensitive health data, including cancer, mental health-related conditions, and sexually-related areas.
If a user appears interested in non-sensitive, health-related topics (such as, by visiting pages related to a topic), an ad relevant to those interests may be displayed. We may also display non-sensitive, health-related ads to users who we or our advertisers believe may be an appropriate audience for such topics. For example, a user who is of childbearing age or views several pages related to newborns and parenting might later be shown an ad for diapers. Similarly, a user who lives in an area with high prevalence of diabetes or high blood pressure, or who views content related to diabetes or high blood pressure might later be shown related ads.
How We Use Data to Provide More Effective Advertising
As noted above, we use the data we collect or receive about users’ online activities to help us show ads for products or services users are likely to be interested in and make the advertising we provide more effective. Some of the ways we do this are:
1. Showing you ads based upon your online activities, such as the websites and apps you use, the content you view, and the searches you submit;
2. Limiting the number of times you see the same ad; and
3. Measuring the effectiveness of the ads we serve.
We also get data from other sources to help us provide more effective advertising. For example, we may use data that is available from public or commercial sources and combine it with other data we have collected or received about a user or the user’s device.
We also work with companies that provide services to us to determine whether users who saw or clicked on an ad later bought the item displayed in the ad (or took some other action the advertiser wanted them to take). We then provide reports to our advertising customers that allow them to assess how effective a particular ad campaign was.
Please note that we retain certain information, such as IP addresses, for a limited time to aid in the targeting of ads, as well as for fraud detection and prevention. Data used to create segments for ad targeting is retained for no longer than 2 years. Other data (for example, data used to determine long-term or seasonal trends) may be retained for as long as Feker has a legitimate business reason for retaining it.
How We Work with Analytics Providers
Analytics providers are third-party companies that collect information when people use our Services or see the ads provided by the Ethiopian Yellow Pages advertising services. These companies use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to keep track of what content or ads users view, how long they spend on different pages, how they arrived on a particular page (e.g., through a search query, link from another property, or a bookmark), and how they respond to the ads we show them. The analytics providers with whom we work include, but are not limited to, the companies listed below. Some of these companies provide users choices about how they collect and use information.
Other Companies That Help Us Provide Effective Advertising
We work with a number of other companies that help us provide more effective advertising. These companies do things like help us deliver ads to people who are most likely to be interested in seeing them, keep track of the number of users who saw a particular ad or visited a particular page on one of our websites, and analyze the effectiveness of our ads.
Please note that, like Feker, these companies and other third parties may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies on or in connection with our Services.
If you are either a consumer using our Services (as defined in the Terms of Use, incorporated herein), or shopping our websites (“Websites), or a wholesale or recurring customer, this Privacy Notice (“Privacy Notice”) applies to you.

COOKIES AND OTHER SIMILAR AUTOMATED TECHNOLOGIES
Digital cookies and similar technologies help us make our Websites better by doing things like recognizing when you’ve signed in, analyzing how you use our Websites so we can make them more useful to you, giving you a more personalized experience, and making our ads to you work better. When you interact with our online Websites, or open emails we send you, we obtain certain information using automated technologies, such as cookies, web server logs, web beacons, and other technologies. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an internet tag, pixel tag, or clear GIF, is a tiny graphic image that may be used in our websites or emails.
We use these automated technologies to collect your device information, internet activity information, and inferences as described above. These technologies help us to:
Remember your information so you do not have to re-enter it;
Track and understand how you use and interact with our online Websites and emails;
Tailor our online Websites to your preferences;
Measure how useful and effective our Websites and communications are to you; and
Otherwise manage and enhance our products and services.
We set some of these automated technologies ourselves, but others are set by third parties who deliver services on our behalf. For example, we may use other companies’ payment processing and web analytics services (described in the “Third-Party Analytics Services” section), which use automated technologies to help us evaluate how customers use our websites.
Your browser can alert you when cookies are placed on your device, and how you can stop or disable them via your browser settings. Please note, however, that without cookies all of the features of our online Websites may not work properly. If you use a mobile device, you can manage how your device and browser share certain device data by changing the privacy and security settings on your mobile device. You can learn more about cookies and how to manage your preferences by visiting http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
THIRD-PARTY ANALYTICS
We use other companies as service providers to help us analyze our site, track metrics, and advertise to you. These service providers generally promise us under contract to keep data private but have their own privacy policies of which you should be aware. We may use third-party analytics service providers to help us with our online Websites, such as Google Analytics, Facebook, BugSnag, or Crashlytics. The analytics providers that administer these services use technologies such as cookies, web beacons and web server logs to help us analyze how you use our online Websites. We may disclose your site-use information (including IP address) to these analytics providers, and other service providers who use the information to help us figure out how you and others use our online Websites.

We generally keep your information as long as reasonably necessary to provide you the Websites or to comply with applicable law. However, we can keep copies of information about you and any transactions or Websites in which you may have participated for a period of time that is consistent with applicable law, applicable statute of limitations, or as we believe is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, to detect or prevent fraud, to collect fees owed, to resolve disputes, to address problems with our Websites, to assist with investigations, to enforce our General Terms or other applicable agreements or policies, or to take any other actions consistent with applicable law.

At this time, our websites are not designed to respond to DNT signals or similar mechanisms from browsers.
Promotional Communications. You may opt out of receiving promotional messages from Ethiopianyellowpages.com or Ethiopianyellowpages.com Sellers, if those messages, are powered by Ethiopianyellowpages.com, by following the instructions in those messages.

We take reasonable measures, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, to protect your information from loss, theft, and misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

Privacy laws that apply in certain places, like California, treat “businesses” and “service providers” differently. Under those laws, a business is the company that decides why and how to process personal information. A service provider processes personal information on behalf of a business in order to provide services. When Ethiopianyellowpages.com processes Your Customers’ Data, we generally act as your service provider. In select cases, however, we may act as a business when we process Your Customers’ Data. For example, we act as a business when we use Your Customers’ Data to send Your Customers products directly from Ethiopianyellowpages.com (drop shipping).

Our policy includes responding to clear notices of copyright infringement. The purpose of this page is to help you understand what should be present in these notices.
Please note that we may document notices of alleged infringement on which we act. If you submit a notice, it will be forwarded to the person who provided the allegedly infringing content. Likewise, a copy of your notice may be sent to a third-party which may publish and/or annotate it. For example, the notice or letter you submit (with personal information removed) may be forwarded to Chilling Effects (http://www.chillingeffects.org) for publication.
Our response to notices may include disabling access to or removing material alleged to be the subject of infringing activity, irrespective of whether or not we may be liable for infringement under U.S. or other law. We may also terminate subscribers in response to notices. If we determine to take any such action in response to a notice, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the subscriber (e.g., owner or administrator of the affected site or content) so that they may have the opportunity to make a counter notification.
