What Personal Information Do We Collect Automatically?

When you access our Services, we automatically collect non-personally identifiable information using the following technologies:

We may use the personal information that we collect for the following purposes:
To contact and correspond with you regarding your use of our websites;
To send you information about our Services and products, including project updates and announcements, event invitations, promotions, incentives and other information that we think may interest you, and for other marketing purposes;

Retaining Your Personal Information

We store personal information as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to conduct our business operations and maintain an appropriate historical record of our relationship with you, or in order to comply with applicable laws, whichever is longer. We may, instead of destroying or erasing your personal information, make it anonymous such that it cannot be associated with, or tracked back to, you.

Securing Your Personal Information

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information. We use safeguards to protect against unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, and disposal, in a manner appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. These safeguards are intended to prevent your personal information from loss and unauthorized access, copying, use, modification or disclosure. However, the internet is not a secure environment and no computer system is perfectly secure.
