4. Advertising
   

   PayDayMax’s advertising service providers advertise our services on websites not affiliated with us. PayDayMax uses cookies on our website and the sites on which we advertise to track advertising performance and to collect aggregate data on webpage viewing. Cookies are not used to collect or disseminate any personal information.

   We and our non-PayDayMax advertising service providers use this information, as well as other information they have or we may have, to help make decisions about ads you see on other sites.

   Some ads that you receive are customized based on your visits over time and across different Web sites. This type of customization – sometime referred to as behavioral or interest-based advertising – is enabled through your computer browser and browser cookies. Information collected by these cookies is not personally identifiable. This type of advertising not only helps you to receive more customized advertising offers and promotions but also helps support the free content, products, and services you get online.

   If you prefer not to have non-personal information used in this way, you may opt out of online behavioral advertising by visiting this link http://www.aboutads.info/.

   Please note that if you opt out, you may still receive online advertising from PayDayMax. Opting out from a specific advertising provider means that the ads you do receive will not be based on your preferences or behavior. In order for behavioral advertising opt-outs to work on the computer you are using, your browser must be set to accept cookies. If you delete cookies, buy a new computer, access the site from a different computer, login under a different screen name, or change web browsers you will need to opt out again. If the browser you are using has scripting disabled, you do not need to opt out, as online behavioral advertising technology does not work when scripting is disabled. Please check the browser's security settings to validate whether scripting is active or disabled.

   PayDayMax is not affiliated with www.aboutads.info/ and cannot warrant the effectiveness of the opt out procedures.
