Additionally, as you use the Properties, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what website or search terms referred you to the Properties, and information about how you interact with the Properties. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”
We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

• “Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Properties.
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking about Device Information.
Any information we collect from you may be used in the following ways:
To provide the Services;
To improve the Services (for example, to personalize your experience to make it smoother and more relevant to you), and to improve the content and design of the Properties;

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Properties. In addition, the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet, we collect technical information such as your login information, browser type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform.
We share your Personal Information with third parties to help us use your Personal Information, as described above.

The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act imposes certain requirements on websites directed toward children under 13 years old that collect information on those children. Oncor Properties are not directed toward children under 13 years old, and children under 13 are expressly prohibited from using the Properties without parental or guardian consent and supervision.
No information should be submitted to or posted on the Properties by any Minor (a user younger than 13 years old). We do not knowingly provide any personally identifying information about Minors, regardless of its source, to third parties, nor is this information knowingly used by us for any marketing or promotional purposes.
By submitting information on the Properties, you are certifying that you are at least 13 years old.
We may share your personally identifiable information when you consent or direct us to do so. The method of consent will be appropriate for the type of personal information involved and the purposes for which it is collected, used or disclosed. Depending on the circumstances, consent may be express (i.e., you specifically agree either verbally, in writing or electronically) or implied.
We may contract with other companies who provide business services to Oncor. For example, we may use third-party service providers to host the Properties, provide call center or other customer service, create reports, send out information, and analyze data. Some of these companies may collect and store information for us as part of their services, or we may provide them with the elements of your personally identifiable information that they need to deliver their services.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to our practices or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons.
