If you create an account or log into the Services using third-party services, such as Google, Facebook or LinkedIn, we will receive your name and email address and/or phone number as permitted by your profile settings on the third-party service in order to authenticate you. The information we receive when you authenticate through a third-party service depends on the settings, permissions and privacy policy controlled by that third-party service.

As a paying user of the Services, we will receive your payment transaction details (for example, your name, the amount paid and the date of payment).
  • Payment Information.

For example, upon registration we ask you to designate a billing representative, including name and contact information.

  • Information Received From Third Parties.
    We may combine personal data we receive from you with personal data we obtain from other sources, such as:
    • Our authorized resellers or distributors, for example, if you purchase access to the Services through one of these partners. The personal data we may receive includes business contact information, including mailing addresses, job titles, email addresses, and phone numbers.
    • Other third parties, such as email campaigns, marketing partners, publicly-available sources and data providers. The personal data we may receive includes company information, location information, demographic information, and business contact information, including mailing addresses, job titles, email addresses, and phone numbers. We may use this information to enhance the information that we already maintain about you and to improve the accuracy of our records, in addition to other purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
  • Information Collected Automatically
    Like many other commercial websites, we use certain technologies, such as tools for collecting usage data, cookies, web beacons, pixels, and similar technologies, to automatically collect information that may contain personal data as you navigate our websites or use our Services or interact with communications we send to you, subject to your consent.
  • Device and Usage Data.
    When users come to our websites, we may track, collect, and aggregate information indicating, among other things, which pages of our websites were visited, the order in which they were visited, when they were visited, and which hyperlinks were clicked. We also collect information from the URLs from which you linked to our websites. Collecting such information may involve logging the IP address, operating system and browser software used by each user of the websites. We may be able to determine from an IP address a user's Internet Service Provider and the geographic location of his or her point of connectivity.
  • Third-Party Widgets.
    Some of our Services contain widgets and social media features, such as the Facebook or LinkedIn button. You are the only person who decides if you would like to press this button and share your personal data with the respective third-party operators of widgets or social media. These widgets and features collect your IP address, the information about the page you are visiting during your use of the Services and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Widgets and social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly within our Services. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it and we recommend that you read them prior to sharing your data with such third parties.
  • Cookies and Similar Technologies.
  • Google Analytics.
    The Services use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service of Google Ireland Limited (Google Building Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland). This facilitates the assignment of data, sessions and interactions across several devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus the analysis of a user's activities across devices.
