The Company may use, collect, track, and store certain data when you visit the Site, including:

Voluntary Disclosure of Information

The Site allows you to fill out forms for the purpose of learning more about the Company and the services We provide, downloading content made available through the Site, applying for a job at the Company, or making general inquiries. You can always elect not to fill out forms on the Site. By filling out these forms, however, you agree to send to the Company all of the information you input into those forms. These forms may prompt you to fill in your:

The Company also may associate the data you voluntarily disclose to us with the data we collect when you visit the Site, as well as with data obtained from outside sources. By voluntarily disclosing such information to the Company, you expressly permit these uses of your personal information by the Company. You also should be aware that if you include information such as your name in a comment on the Site, such information becomes public information, meaning that you lose any privacy rights you might have with regard to that information. Such disclosures also may increase your chances of receiving unwanted communications from third parties.

For users outside the United States, please note that any information you enter into the Site will be transferred out of your country and into the United States. You consent to such transfer through your use of the Site. You also warrant that you have the right to transfer such information outside your country and into the United States.

The Site also links to the Company’s pages on various social networking sites, such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. If you become a fan, follow us, or otherwise interact with the Company on these social networking sites, then we may be able to personally identify you because we may be able to see whatever information you make publicly available about yourself on that social networking site. By doing so, you expressly permit this use of your personal information by the Company.

Sharing of Personal Information

The Company does not sell or rent any of the data We collect or maintain. We may share certain data, including personal information, with service providers, vendors, marketing agencies and services, data management and analytics services, affiliates, and contract workers. Additionally, We may store certain data, including personal information, on servers located at third-party data centers. In addition, We may obtain data, including personal information, from outside sources.

The Company takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of the data we collect and maintain. This includes requiring third parties with whom your information may be shared to comply with the privacy policies of The Company.

Other than as described above, The Company discloses your personal information only when permitted to do so by law, or when The Company believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property, rights or safety of The Company, third parties or the public at large. This may include providing or using personal information to comply with any valid legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute, or court order or to assist in any legal investigation or other proceeding when we deem necessary or appropriate.

How We May Contact You After You Visit the Site

We may contact you via email or telephone, though, in efforts to answer your questions about the services we provide, to provide you with the content you have indicated an interest in, to respond to your job application, or to respond to your general inquiries. We also may use the information you provide to contact you from time to time in order to gauge your satisfaction with the Site or its content, or your interest in the products or services offered by the Company. By providing your personal information, you consent to our contacts to you for these purposes. If you do not want the Company to contact you, you should not provide any information that would enable the Company to do so.

We may also use data we collect, including personal information, to track visits to the Site and improve the user experience of the Site. If you have enabled the Do Not Track feature in your browser, our technology observes that signal and does not utilize information collected through the Site to further track you. However, We may track clicks from data obtained through other means, including our newsletters, promotional offers, and the like. The Company does not authorize third parties to collect your information or to conduct their own online tracking of you while you are on the Site.

This Site also utilizes tools to engage Site visitors after they leave the Site. For example, we may use the data we collect to develop specific business development opportunities and sales leads. These activities may lead us to contact your organization at some point to discuss potential business opportunities. This Site may also show advertisements to you on other sites after you have visited this Site. This is sometimes known as “remarketing” because we may re-market our products or services to you on other sites after you leave this Site. We use third-party vendors, including Google, to show you these advertisements on various sites on the Internet. These third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies, pixel tags, and other technologies to serve you ads based on your prior visits to this Site. To the extent that the Company may utilize third party vendors to assist it in its own analytical activities, the third parties are requested to comply with the privacy policies of the Company.

Users may opt out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page at https://www.google.com/privacy_ads.html. This Site may also use Google’s DoubleClick remarketing pixel, which you may opt out of by visiting the DoubleClick opt-out page at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb#display_optout or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at https://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.

Security

The security of the information We collect and maintain is very important to us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosures, We utilize physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect all of the information We collect and maintain, including any personal information you voluntarily provide. Please be aware that, although We endeavor to provide appropriate security for the information we collect and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.

Children

We do not intend to knowingly solicit data from or market to children under the age of 13. The use of this Site is conditioned, in part, on a certification that the user is at least 13 years of age. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with information without their consent, he or she should contact us at privacy@iacollaborative.com.
