The code does not identify you directly, but it may be used to connect your activity and interests.
Combination of Personal and Non-Identifying Information: We may combine your Personal Information with Non-Identifying Information, but Upwork will treat the combined information as Personal Information.

Like other online companies, we receive technical information when you use our Services.

32links and its partners use cookies or similar technologies to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movement around the website, the desktop app, and the mobile app, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. The technology used to collect information automatically from 32links Users may include cookies, web beacons, and embedded scripts.

e. How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals
32links does not respond to Do-Not-Track signals.
Please note that your browser setting may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to websites and online services you visit.

Like many websites and online services, 32links does not alter its practices when it receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser.
