Advertising measurement. When we run online ads, the page those ads link to uses Google's conversion measurement (Google Ads), which may set a cookie so we can tell whether our advertising works. It answers one question for us: did a visit from one of our ads lead to an offer request? We do not build advertising audiences from this, we do not use it to follow you around other websites, and it is only present on our ad landing page. You can learn more in Google's advertising policies.
7. Data security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including access controls, encryption in transit (HTTPS), and restricting access to authorized personnel only. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
