From time to time, we may offer certain mobile applications, including iOS applications ("Apps"), for download. We will use commercially reasonable efforts, given the limitations imposed upon us by third party providers such as Apple Inc. and Google Inc., to clearly disclose what, if any Personal Information or Usage Information is collected by the particular App, how it is used, and with whom it is shared. In the event that it is not commercially feasible for us to provide this explanation, for example if you download the App directly via your handheld device without visiting any Internet website where we could publish such explanation, this Privacy Policy shall govern any information collected by us as a result of your use of the App (if any). PLEASE NOTE, CERTAIN PRACTICES ARE OUTSIDE OF OUR CONTROL, FOR EXAMPLE, ANY TRACKING BY GOOGLE, INC., APPLE, INC., OR YOUR THIRD PARTY TELECOMMUNICATIONS CARRIER OF WHICH APPS YOU DOWNLOAD.
