Like other companies, SmileHub Inc. (“we,” “our,” or “us”) uses cookies and other tracking technologies
(collectively, “Cookies”) when you visit our website, mobile application (collectively, “Sites”), and use
the services provided through our Sites (“Services”). This Cookie Policy explains how we use Cookies and how
you can manage them. Please review our Privacy Policy to learn more about our privacy
practices.
This Cookie Policy covers the following topics:
1. Cookies and Online Tracking Technologies We Use
“Cookies” are small files of information that are stored by your web browser software on your computer
hard drive, mobile or other devices (e.g., smartphones or tablets).
We may use the following types of Cookies:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These Cookies are necessary for the Sites to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They
are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as
setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or
alert you about these Cookies, but some parts of the Sites will not then work. These Cookies do not
store any personally identifiable information.
We use Google reCAPTCHA, a free service provided by Google, Inc., to protect our Sites from spam and
abuse. Google reCAPTCHA uses advanced risk analysis techniques to decipher humans and bots. Google
reCAPTCHA works differently depending on what version is deployed. For example, you may be asked to
check a box indicating that you are not a robot or Google reCAPTCHA may detect abusive traffic without
user interaction. Google reCAPTCHA works by transmitting certain types of information to Google, such as
the referrer URL, IP address, visitor behavior, operating system information, browser and length of the
visit, cookies, and mouse movements. Your use of Google reCAPTCHA is subject to Google’s
Privacy Policy
and Terms of Service. More information
as to Google reCAPTCHA and how it works is available
here.
Performance Cookies
These Cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance
of our Sites. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move
around the Sites. If you do not allow these Cookies we will not know when you have visited our Sites and
will not be able to monitor its performance.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. Google Analytics uses Cookies
or other tracking technologies to help us analyze how users interact with the Sites and Services,
compile reports on their activity, and provide other services related to their activity and usage. The
technologies used by Google may collect information such as your IP address, time of visit, whether you
are a returning visitor, and any referring website. The information generated by Google Analytics will
be transmitted to and stored by Google and will be subject to Google’s
privacy policies. To learn more

The Sites may use Cookies and similar technologies third-party vendors provide to collect information on
user behavior (e.g., screens and pages visited, buttons and links clicked, limited information entered,
and user taps and mouse movements). This information enables us to monitor and improve the user
experience.
Functional Cookies
These Cookies enable the Sites to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by
us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these
Cookies, then some or all of these Services may not function properly.
Targeting Cookies
These Cookies may be set through our Sites by our advertising partners. They may be used by those
companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites.
If you do not allow these Cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
Social Media Cookies
These Cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the Sites to enable you
to share our content with your friends and networks. They are capable of tracking your browser across
other websites and building a profile of your interests. This may impact the content and messages you
see on other websites you visit. If you do not allow these Cookies, you may not be able to use or see
these sharing tools.
