As You navigate through and interact with our Website and Services, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information about Your equipment, browsing actions and patterns, location, and workplace usage patterns, including:
We and our third-party service providers may collect information about You in a variety of ways. We and/or our third-party partners may employ various tracking technologies, such as cookies, web beacons and analytics software, that help us better manage content on our Service by informing us what content is effective.
Our service providers may use cookies and web beacons to deploy and read cookie identifiers and Mobile Ad IDs, associated with Your activities on the Service, third-party websites, mobile apps, or other information we collect, to recognize You across the devices You use, such as a mobile device and a laptop or other computer. These ad networks and their customers may also use any of this information to measure ad performance, understand their (or our) audience, or otherwise improve and enhance their marketing.
Similarly, we or a third-party data partner may associate cookies with hashed (non-human readable) versions of Your registration data (e.g., Your email address), along with other interest-based or demographic data. You can learn more about or opt out of this type of advertising through the links in the following paragraph.

Web Beacons may be used within the Service to track email open rates, web page visits or form submissions. In some cases, we tie the information gathered by Web Beacons to our Users’ Personal Information. For example, we use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.
We use Local Shared Objects, such as Flash cookies, AND/OR Local Storage, such as HTML5, to store content information and preferences. Third parties with whom we partner to provide certain features on our website or to display advertising based upon Your web browsing activity also use Flash cookies or HTML5 to collect and store information.

The use of any information that You may provide to any third-party, or the use of “cookie” technology by any third-party, will be governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the website that You are visiting.
