WHO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROMWe may collect personal information from the following
groups of data subjects: visitors to, andusers of, our online and mobile resources; our customers; current members of
our workforce and those who apply for posted jobs; and third-party vendors and business partners. Personal information
generally means information that can be used to identify you or that can
be easily linked to you (for example, your name, address, telephone number, email address, social
security number and date of birth). The privacy laws in some jurisdictions include unique
elements in what they consider to be the personal information of the consumers or data subjects
they protect. If those laws apply to us, as in the case of the California Consumer Privacy Act(“CCPA”)
or European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), our use of the phrase
“personal information” includes the unique elements required by such laws.The categories of information we collect
from each of these groups, and the ways in which we use it, differs. As you may have noticed, it’s possible that the same person could fall into more
than one group. Most of this statement addresses our processing and sharing of personal
information collected from visitors to and users of our online and mobile resources and our customers.WHAT WE COLLECT
There are two types of information that we obtain from you online and then store and use: (i)
non-personal information that’s collected automatically from each visitor, such as your device
operating system; and (ii) personal information that you voluntarily provide to us or that is collected automatically.
By using our online and mobile resources or purchasing our products or services, you aresignifying to us that you agree with this section of our
privacy statement and that we may useand disclose your information as described .Voluntarily Submitted Information.
If you participate in certain activities via our online and mobile resources, you may be asked to
provide us with information about yourself. The types of personal information we collect in those situations includes identifiers
(such as your name, email address, physical address, and phone number), professional information(such as the business you are in), and
financial accountinformation(such as your credit card information). We do not sell, rent, or trade voluntarilysubmitted personal
information with third parties. If you don’t want us to collect this type of personal information, please don’t provide it.
This means you shouldn’t participate in the activities on our online and mobile resources that request or require
it and you may want to communicate with us by phone or regular mail instead.Participation is strictly your
choice. Not participating may limit your ability to take full advantage of the online and mobile resources, but it will not
affect your ability to access certain information available to the general public on the online and mobile resources.
Some of the ways you voluntarily give us your personal information and how we use it: Emails and Online Forms –
When you send us an email or fill out an online form, such as tocontact us, your email address and any other personal
information (e.g., home address or phone number) that may be in the content of your message or
attached to it, are retained by us and used
to respond back directly to you and to process your request. Depending on the personal
information provided, communications from us may be in the form of emails, telephone calls,
and/or text messages. We may also send you information about any of our products or services
we think may be of interest to you.
Registering for an Account –
When you register for an account, you submit personal
information to us such as your name and email address which we then retain. We use that
information to create and manage your account and, in some cases, establish a password and
profile to communicate with you via email.
Registering for Events –
When you register for services, webinars, events, conferences, or
programs we ourselves may host (rather than outsourced to a third-party event manager with its
own privacy policies), you will be submitting the types of identifiers described above. If the
event requires a fee, we may also ask you to submit
credit card or other financial information
.
We use this information to register you for the event and send you communications regarding the
event.
Becoming a Subscriber to Our Service –
We use any information provided from our customers
to perform our contractual obligations and provide the products and services purchased to them,
to manage their accounts and communicate with them.
Social Media and Community Features –
Some of our online and mobile resources may offer
social media-like community features letting users post messages and comments, and/or upload
an image or other files and materials. If you choose to make use of these features, the information
you post, including your screen name and any other personal information, will be in the public
domain and
not covered/protected by this statement
.
Automatically Collected Information.
When you visit our online and mobile resources, basic information is passively collected through
your web browser via use of tracking technologies, such as a “cookie” which is a small text file
that is downloaded onto your computer or mobile device when you access the online and mobile
resources. It allows us to recognize your computer or mobile device and store some information
about your preferences or past actions.
We allow third party vendors to use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about
your browsing activities over time following your use of the site. For example, we use Google
Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("
"). Google Analytics usescookies to help us analyze how you use the online and mobile resources and enhance your
experience when you visit the online and mobile resources. For more information on how Google
uses this data, go to
www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
You can learn more about how
to opt out of Google Analytics by going to
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
.
The internet activity information collected through cookies and other similar means includes such
things as: the domain name and IP address from which you accessed our online and mobile
resources; the type of browser and operating system you use; the date and time and length of your
visit; the specific page visited, graphics viewed and any documents downloaded; the specific
links to other sites you accessed from our online and mobile resources; and the specific links
from other sites you used to access our online and mobile resources.
Additionally, if you access our online and mobile resources from a phone or other mobile device,
the mobile services provider may transmit to us uniquely identifiable mobile device information
which allows us to then collect mobile phone numbers and associate them with the mobile device
identification information. Some mobile phone vendors also operate systems that pinpoint the
physical location of devices and we may receive this information as well if location services are
enabled on your device. If you do not want us to collect and use
geolocation data
, disable
location services through your device settings.
Regardless, we use both automatically collected information and mobile device information to
compile generic reports about popular pages on our online and mobile resources, and to see how
our customers and followers are accessing our online and mobile resources. We then use that
data to administer the online and mobile resources and make them better, make your activities
more convenient and efficient and to enhance the functionality of our online and mobile
resources, such as by remembering certain of your information in order to save you time.
We use and retain your personal information in accordance with applicable law and as long as
necessary to carry out the purposes described above in accordance with our internal data
retention procedures.
The Company will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally
retained for a shorter period, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to
improve the functionality of Our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer
time periods.
User Beware: External Sites, Apps, Links and Social Media.
We maintain a presence on one or more external social media platforms such as Twitter,
Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn. We may further allow features of our online and
mobile resources to connect with, or be viewable from, that external social media presence.
Similarly, our online and mobile resources may contain links to other websites or apps controlled
by third parties.
We are not responsible for either the content on, or the privacy practices of, social media
platforms, or any third-party sites or apps to which we link. Those apps, sites and platforms are
not controlled by us and therefore have their own privacy policies and terms of use. If you have
questions about how those apps, sites and platforms collect and use personal information, youshould carefully read their privacy policies and contact them using the information they provide.

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Federal law imposes special restrictions and obligations on commercial website operators who
direct their operations toward, and collect and use information from, children under the age of 13.
We take those age-related requirements very seriously, and consistent with it do not intend for our
online and mobile resources to be used by children under the age of 18. If we become aware that
anyone under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to our online and mobile
resources, we will delete that information and will not use it for any purpose whatsoever. If you
believe that someone under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to our online and
mobile resources, please contact us at [email protected]. We encourage parents and

information over the Internet.
HOW WE PROTECT COLLECTED PERSONAL INFORMATION
We will take all reasonable security precautions to protect your personal information provided to
our online and mobile resources. We have adopted a security program that includes technical,
organizational, administrative, and other security measures designed to protect, in a manner
consistent with accepted industry standards and applicable law, against anticipated or actual
threats to the security of personal information (the “
Security Program
”). We cannot, however,
guarantee that your information, whether during transmission or while stored on our systems or
otherwise in our care, will be free from unauthorized access or that loss, misuse, destruction, or
alteration will not occur. Except for our duty to maintain the Security Program under applicable
law, we disclaim any other liability for any such theft or loss of, unauthorized access or damage
to, or interception of any data or communications including personal information. We have every
reason to believe our Security Program is reasonable and appropriate for our business and the
nature of foreseeable risks to the personal information we collect. We further periodically review
and update our Security Program, including as required by applicable law.
Nonetheless, as part of our Security Program, we have specific incident response and
management procedures that are activated whenever we become aware that your personal
information was likely to have been compromised. We further require, as part of our vendor and
business partner oversight procedures, that such parties notify us immediately if they have any
reason to believe that an incident adversely affecting personal information, we provided to them
has occurred.
THE CALIFORNIA CONSUMER PRIVACY ACT
When we collect personal information from California residents, we become subject to, and those
residents have rights under, the California Consumer Privacy Act or “
CCPA
”. This section of our
statement is used to allow us to fulfill our CCPA obligations and explain your CCPA rights. For
purposes of this section, the words “
you
” and “
your
” mean only such California residents.
What did we collect from California Residents?
We collect the following categories of personal information:
identifiers
such as name, address,
IP address, and other similar identifiers;
personal information described in subdivision (e) ofSection 1798.80
(California customer records statute) such as a name, address, telephone
number, credit card number;
commercial information
such as products or services purchased;
internet/electronic activity
such as browsing history and search history;
geolocation data
including geographic coordinates/physical location; and
audio, video, electronic
or other similar
information. We may disclose this information for one or more business purposes permitted by
the CCPA. We do not sell, and within the last 12 months have not sold, personal information to
third parties.
Rights of California Residents
If you are a California resident, you have the right to request the following:
•
Access:
Up to two times per year, you can request that we disclose to you (1) the
categories and specific pieces of personal information that we have collected from you;
(2) the sources of that personal information; (3) the business or commercial purpose for
that collection; (4) the categories of personal information we have disclosed for a
commercial purpose; and (5) the categories of third parties with whom we have shared
your personal information.
•
Deletion:
You may also request that we delete any personal information that we have
collected from or about you. There may be instances where we will not be able to fully
comply with your request, such as if we need the personal information to complete a
transaction for you, to detect and protect against fraudulent and illegal activity, to exercise
our rights, for our internal purposes, or to comply with a legal obligation.
More information can be found
here
. It’s important to us that you know that if you exercise these
rights, we will not “discriminate” against you by treating you differently from other California
residents who use our sites and mobile resources or purchase our services but did not exercise
their rights.
To exercise your rights under California law, contact us at [email protected]. We
may ask you to fill out a request form. The CCPA only allows us to act on your request if we can
verify your identity or your authority to make the request so you will also need to follow our
instructions for identity verification.
If you make a verifiable request per the above, we will confirm our receipt and respond in the
time frames prescribed by the CCPA.
VIRGINIA RESIDENTS
If you are a Virginia resident, you may take advantage of certain privacy rights pursuant to
Virginia Code 59.1-577. For example, you may request to access, correct, or delete your personal
information. Because “selling” personal information and engaging in “targeted advertising” as
these terms are defined in Virginia law, you may also exercise your right to opt-out of such sales
or targeted advertising. You have the right to appeal a denial of your privacy rights. To take
advantage of either of your rights under Virginia law, or to submit an appeal to a denial of these
rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We may ask you to fill out a request
form. We can only act on your request if we can verify your identity or your authority to make
the request so you will also need to follow our instructions for identity verification. If you make averifiable request per the above, we will confirm our receipt and respond in the time frames
prescribed by Virginia law.
THE EU GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION
We do collect or otherwise obtain personal information from data subjects located in the GDPR
Jurisdictions. We fulfill our GDPR obligations with respect to our customers (and their own end-
clients), and our vendors and business partners through a series of separate notices, contracts or
other terms provided to them at the time, and in the manner and form, GDPR and local law
within each GDPR Jurisdiction requires.
We describe, in the immediately following section of this statement, how we comply with the
GDPR for personal information collected from visitors to and users of our online and mobile
resources while they were in a GDPR Jurisdiction. Thus, for purposes of that section, the words
“
you
” and “
your
” mean only such GDPR Jurisdiction-based visitors and users.
What do we collect from you in the GDPR Jurisdictions and how do we use it?
We collect from you the categories of personal information already described. The lawful basis
on which we rely for such collection, later use and disclosure, is what the GDPR refers to as
legitimate interest. As stated elsewhere in this statement, we do not sell any of your personal
information to third parties nor do we use it for automated decision making.
Cross-border Data Transfers and Third-Party Processors
If we transfer personal information from the GDPR Jurisdictions to a location that has not been
deemed by the European Commission to have adequate privacy protections, we do so in the
manner the GDPR permits.
Rights of Data Subjects in the GDPR Jurisdictions
While we attempt to allow all visitors and users of our online and mobile resources to exercise a
degree of control over their personal information, under the GDPR we have a legal obligation to
do so for you. More specifically, with respect to personal information collected from you while
you were in a GDPR Jurisdiction, you have these rights: transparency, access, correction and
deletion, portability, who, what, why and where, and restriction/objection (for more information
click
here
).
If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact [email protected].
Your ability to exercise these rights is subject to certain conditions and exemptions that you can
read about in Articles 12 through 23 of the GDPR. Among those conditions is our right to decline
part or all a request if we cannot satisfy our reasonable doubts and concerns about your identity
in a manner that helps us minimize the risk that unauthorized persons might use a GDPR right to
access your personal information. We will respond to all requests without undue delay, and in
accordance with the time frames, if any, prescribed by the GDPR. If you are not satisfied withhow we use your personal information or respond to your requests, you have the right to
complain to your data protection regulator. Contact information for the EU data protection
regulators can be found
