Internal Improvements and Analytics – We also use the personal information we collect to monitor and improve our internal operations, as well as to improve the experience of users within our network of Services. For example, we may correlate web site/app traffic information with data about site visitors to understand aggregate usage patterns, graph trends, and derive analytical information about the performance of our Services. This data helps us to determine how much our customers use parts of the Services, allowing us to enhance it to fit the needs of as many of our customers as possible. We may also break down overall usage statistics according to customers' domain names, browser types, and MIME types by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser).
Closed Circuit Video Cameras. As noted above, we use video cameras at some of our retail locations to monitor building security and assist in crime prevention, detection, and investigation, and to ensure the health and safety of our staff and visitors to our facilities. We may also use video to identify members for verification, loyalty program and marketing purposes, as appropriate.
1/ST Direct Communications – By creating an account, You consent to receive communications from 1/ST through various methods (i.e. e-mail, telephone, text message, etc.). Standard data/text message charges may apply.

We and others may use a variety of technologies to collect information about Your device and use of our websites and mobile applications.

We use these technologies to personalize Your experience with our Services and to participate in digital advertising.
Most web browsers can be programmed to accept or reject the use of some or all of these technologies, although You must take additional steps to disable or control other technologies.
Each browser is different, but many browsers have preferences or options that may be adjusted to allow You to either accept or reject cookies and certain other technologies before they are set or installed, or allow You to remove or reject the use or installation of certain technologies altogether. If You want to learn the correct way to modify Your browser settings, please use the Help menu in Your browser or review the instructions provided by the following browsers: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari Desktop, Safari Mobile; and Android browser.
"Do Not Track" Technology – Some newer web browsers have a "Do Not Track" preference that transmits a "Do Not Track" header to the websites You visit with information indicating that You do not want Your activity to be tracked. We currently do not respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals, as there is no standard for how online services should respond to such signals. As standards develop, we may develop policies for responding to do-not-track signals that we will describe in this Privacy Policy.
Session Replay Technologies - Our Services may use website analytics cookies and tools that provide user monitoring and session replays, heatmaps, form analytics, and other features that may record or reproduce your clicks/taps, mouse movements, scrolling, form fills, visited pages and other technical information about your browser. We utilize these tools in order to respond to your customer service requests, perform website debugging, and A/B test on our digital properties. For instance, if you experience a technical issue during a wagering session, the session replay tool on our site is intended to help enable a customer service representative to understand the potential issue and determine how best to fix it. We do not collect such information on pages where the analytics tools are not installed, nor do we track or collect information outside your web browser. If you wish to opt-out of our use of session replay technologies, you may disable support within your web browser for our session replay vendor, Datadog’s (https://www.datadoghq.com/), website cookies. You may also submit an opt-out or deletion request directly to Datadog through Datadog’s Data Subject Rights intake form, available here.
