Cookies

We use "cookies" or �Web Beacons� (small text files placed on your hard disk) on certain of our pages to help analyze our web page flow; customize our services, content and advertising; measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits.

However, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site.

Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

Your password is the key to your account. Use unique numbers, letters and special characters, and do not disclose your rendiva.com password to anyone. If you do share your password or your personal information with others, remember that you are responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account.
