Privacy Policy
SECTION 1 – Overview
We, Civilizi, Inc., Provide this Privacy Policy to explain our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of your information that we receive through our Service. The Privacy Policy is a part of the Terms of Service (also the “Terms”) which apply to all aspects of this Privacy Policy. The terms “Civilizi,” “we,” “our,” and “us” include Last Brand, Inc., and our affiliates and subsidiaries. The Privacy Policy explains our online and offline information practices, the kinds of information we may collect, how we intend to use and share that information, and how you can opt out of a use or correct or change such information. Unless we define a term in this Privacy Policy, all capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service.
SECTION 2 – Scope
This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you engage with our Service. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any website, application, product, software, service, or content that are offered by third parties or that link to their own privacy statement, privacy policy, or privacy notice. For example, some laws distinguish between organizations which control certain decisions of how personal information is used (often called a “controller”) and those who simply process personal information according to the decisions on others (often referred as a “processor”). We are a controller for those services where we make decisions on how personal information is used in connection with our Service, and we are a processor for those services where we only use personal information as allowed by our customers, vendors, contractors, suppliers, or others. Where we make decisions as a controller, we are responsible for the obligations of a controller under applicable laws in connection with the processing of personal information – for example, we use this Privacy Policy and other notices to provide you with information about our use of personal information, as required by law. Where we are acting as a processor, our customers, vendors, contractors, suppliers, or others are the responsible controller under applicable laws in connection with the processing of personal information and you should contact the controller for issues related to your privacy of personal information.
Civilizi is located in the United States. Because of cloud computing, during your use of our Service, your personal information may be transferred outside of your home country and stored in and accessed from multiple countries. Whenever we transfer personal information to other jurisdictions, we will ensure that the information is transferred in accordance with this Privacy Policy and as permitted by applicable data protection laws.

Technologies Policy
Cookies are small text files placed in visitors’ computer browsers to store their preferences and are widely used to remember you and your preferences, either for a single visit (“session cookie”) or multiple visits (“persistent cookie”). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience and perform essential functions like allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (“first party cookies”) or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).
Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other Technologies such as web beacons or pixels. These are typically small transparent images that provide us with statistics for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way as cookies. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.
We use Technologies for technical reasons and to personalize your experience. Some of these Technologies may be set when a page is loaded or when a user takes a particular action on our Service, both before and after you have registered. For more information on the choices you have about the Technologies we use, please see Section entitled Controlling Technologies below.
Where We Place Technologies
We set technologies in a number of different locations across our services. These locations may include our websites, Service, mobile apps, and e-mails.
Types of Technologies
Below are the types of Technologies we use in our Service and why we use them.:
Strictly Necessary. These Technologies are essential for our Service to perform their basic functions. These include Technologies that are required to allow registered users to authenticate and perform account-related functions and to save contents of requested Service for e-commerce functions.

Controlling Technologies
You may stop or restrict the placement of Technologies on your device or remove them by adjusting your preferences as your browser or device permits. The online advertising industry also provides websites from which you may opt out of receiving targeted ads from data partners and other advertising partners that participate in self-regulatory programs. You can access these and learn more about targeted advertising and consumer choice and privacy, at www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp, http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/, https://youradchoices.ca/choices/, and www.aboutads.info/choices/.

Alternatively, for some devices you may use your device’s platform controls in your settings to exercise choice.
Please note you must separately opt out in each browser and on each device. Advertisements on third party websites that contain the AdChoices link may have been directed to you based on information collected by advertising partners over time and across websites. These advertisements provide a mechanism to opt out of the advertising partners’ use of this information for interest-based advertising purposes
Do Not Track Signals
We do not currently respond to or take any action with respect to web browser Do Not Track signals or other signals that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personal information about an individual’s online activities over time and across third party websites or online services.

Depending on the specific interactions you have with us, we may provide different or supplemental privacy statements that describe and govern how we use your personal information.
