WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE GATHER?

When you visit this Website, you may provide us with two types of information: (a)personal information you knowingly and voluntarily choose to disclose, and (b) information that we automatically collect as you browse this Website. We collect and store any information you voluntarily enter on this Website, or provide to us in offline contacts we have with you. Information is collected from visitors to this Website, including in the following areas, as applicable:

REGISTRATION FORMS

If you register for this Website, or for specific events, contests and newsletters on various areas of this Website, we will generally ask you to provide contact information, and preferences regarding the event or material for which you desire to register. You may, however, visit this Website without registering.

In connection with these transactions, we collect data necessary to complete the transaction and that is furnished by you, which may include contact information, date of birth, e mail address, telephone number and your credit card number.

AUTOMATED MEANS

Whenever you use the Website, we and/or our service providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically collect information about how the Website is accessed and used (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include, in part, browser type, operating system, the page viewed, the time, how many users visited the Website, and the website you visited immediately before the Website. This statistical data provides us with information about the use of the Website, such as how many visitors visit a specific page on the Website, how long they stay on that page, which websites they are coming from and which hyperlinks, if any, they “click” on. Usage Information helps us to keep the Website user friendly and to provide visitor’s with readily accessible and helpful information. We may also use your Usage Information to troubleshoot issues with access or use of our Website. Usage Information is generally non-identifying.

We believe that such technology usage is fair, lawful, and proportional to the legitimate interest and needs of our business, and that our methodology fairly addresses each user’s legitimate rights and expectations in view of the context and purpose for the collection and use of the information collected. 

Device Identifiers

In the course of collecting Usage Information we may also collect your IP address, MAC Address or other unique identifier (each a “Device Identifier”) for the computer, mobile device, internet provider or other technology (collectively, “Device”) you use to access the Website. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a website or its servers. Our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. When you visit the Website, we may view your Device Identifier. We use this information to identify repeat visitors to our Website. We also may use this information to enhance the Website and troubleshoot issues with access or use of our Website. We may associate your Device Identifier with your Personal Information.

The technologies used on the Website, including Device Identifiers, to collect Usage Information may include, without limitation:

Cookies – Cookies are data files placed on a Device when it is used to visit utilize the Website. We may use cookies to collect and store certain information about you. We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them). In some countries, we are not permitted to send cookies to the browser of a user without the prior consent of the affected user. In this case, we will seek such consent. This section assumes that either the use of cookies is not restricted by applicable law, or if it is restricted that the individual has explicitly consented to the use of the cookies.

Web Beacons – We may also include web beacons (also known as web bugs, Internet tags, pixel tags, tracking pixels and clear GIFs) with the content and information that we deliver to you, which we will use to collect information regarding your interaction with our Website. A web beacon is a transparent graphic image placed on a web page or in an email, which indicates that a page or email has been viewed or that an email has been forwarded. In addition, a web beacon allows us to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, the type of browser used to view the page, and the information in cookies set by us. A web beacon may also tell your browser to get content from another server.

Cookies and web beacons (together, “Site Cookies”) may enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website, track user actions/behavior on our Website and track the effectiveness of our Website.

If you want to prevent the use of certain cookies, you do have the ability to opt out.  If you have questions about this, please do reach out to us using the contact information in the “Questions about Our Privacy Policy” Section below.
