When you visit our websites or use any of the services we provide (including our online and mobile products, training or events) we collect personal data.
Personal data includes individually identifiable information about you, such as your name, email, address or payment information. Much of the information is aggregated and anonymized such that we can only classify groups.
This privacy policy applies across all our websites and services, and communicates how we treat your privacy and personal data, as well as covering our use of cookies and tracking technologies.
We may need to update this policy from time to time and when we do so, we will post appropriate notification.

When you visit our websites or use our services, we also automatically collect information like your browser type, IP address and navigational movements. These movements include items such as how you navigated to/from the website, pages viewed and links clicked.
Additionally, we may collect and share information about you using trusted third parties like our marketing automation partners. This often helps us enhance how we can provide more personalized material to you.
We collect much of this information using cookies and similar tracking technologies, which is detailed further in our cookies & tracking section. If you choose to not provide personal data then please note that some of our offerings may not work correctly or be available.

Primarily we use your personal data to manage our relationship with you. Examples of this include how to use our products more effectively, newsletters, answering your requests, service/security updates and marketing communications of possible interest given your prior preferences.
We also utilize the usage data to learn how people are interacting with our websites and services, so we can improve/optimize our offerings. Summaries of these interactions are produced aggregating & anonymizing personal data into analytical reports.

Additional Sign-In Authentication
In addition to standard login credentials, some of our services allow single sign-in functionality via a Google, Salesforce or alike account. In these cases you will be subject to their corresponding terms of use, policy policies and cookie notices.
Cloud Storage
Some of our services allow single sign-in to related cloud storage accounts to enable additional access and searching of document/artifact contents. For example, using your Google account to do text searching within your Google Drive. In order to enable this type of functionality, you must adhere to the Google Terms of Service (or equivalent for corresponding usage).
Cookies & Tracking
Here you will find out more about what types of cookies & tracking technologies we use, why, and how you can control them.
What / Why?
We use cookies and other tracking technologies like web beacons, which are small text/graphic files containing information sent to your computer/mobile device when you visit our website or use our services. Our third party providers and us use both session-based types (that expire when you close that session) and persistent-based types (locally stored across sessions) of these files.
We use cookies and tracking beacons to help our website/services operate more effectively, such as being more responsive to your preferences, pre-populating fields and to remember display/control settings. This is done for your convenience as well as to provide us with information on which parts of our website/services are being viewed, clicked and linked. They also help us to derive analytics and deliver you more appropriate marketing communications. Examples of our usage include Google Analytics, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and Salesforce applications.
Control
Many browsers have controls for accepting/rejecting/disabling cookies that you can manage to help protect your own personal data rights.
If you choose to reject our cookies & tracking beacons then please note that some of our offerings may not work correctly or be available.
Custody & Rights
Unless you advise us otherwise, we will keep your data while we hold a relationship with you, and/or where there is a reasonable on-going need for retention such as tax records.
Your rights include being able to ask us what personal data we hold about you, request a copy, correct/amend, restrict/object to processing or ensure it’s deleted.
At any stage you can withdraw any marketing communication consent by clicking an unsubscribe link in each such email or by contacting us at any time through our website.
These rights can be exercised at any time by phone, email or contact forms listed on our website.
We will also review and investigate in a timely manner, any issues in relation to your personal data that you raise directly with us, or as notified through an appropriate data protection authority.
