Personal information that you provide directly to us will be apparent from the context in which you provide it, for example:
Each form on our Sites varies in the information required and collected. In most cases, an asterisk (*) indicates the required information on a form. You may choose to provide additional information within fields that are not required.
In addition, you may choose to submit personal information to us if you attend an event that we or one of our affiliates or partners has organized or if you otherwise communicate with us on social media or by sending us an email.
We also may collect personal information about you from third party data providers or publicly available sources for anti-money laundering, background check or similar screening purposes, to protect our business and to comply with legal and regulatory obligations.
While the personal information you choose to provide is voluntary, providing certain personal information may be necessary to offer you the relevant product or service. If you choose not to provide certain information, this may affect our ability to provide you with certain products or services.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
When you visit our Sites, we may obtain certain information by automated means, such as cookies, web beacons, web server logs and other technologies. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. The information we collect in this manner may include your device IP address, unique device identifier, web browser characteristics, device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, clickstream data, and dates and times of website visits.
We use these automated technologies on our Sites to collect information about your equipment, browsing actions, and usage patterns. These technologies help us (1) remember your information so you do not have to re-enter it; (2) track and understand how you use and interact with our Sites; (3) tailor the Sites around your preferences; (4) measure the usability of our Sites and the effectiveness of our communications; and (5) otherwise manage and enhance our products and services, and help ensure they are working properly.
Your browser may tell you how to be notified about certain types of automated collection technologies and how to restrict or disable them. Please note, however, that without these technologies, you may not be able to use all of the features of our Sites. For mobile devices, you can manage how your device and browser share certain device data by adjusting the privacy and security settings on your mobile device.
The Sites are not designed to respond to “do not track” signals from browsers.

We may use third-party analytics services on our Sites, such as Google Analytics. The information we obtain through the Sites may be disclosed to or collected directly by these services.

We use the personal information for these purposes because we have a legitimate business interest in providing our services. In accordance with applicable law, we take reasonable measures to ensure that the interests we pursue are balanced with your interests, rights and freedoms, which we can explain upon request.
Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent to send you marketing communications about our products, services, offers and promotions, and to invite you to events and to participate in surveys.

We reserve the right to transfer any personal information we have about you in the event of an actual or proposed sale or transfer of all or a portion of our business or assets (including in the event of a merger, acquisition, joint venture, reorganization, divestiture, dissolution or liquidation).
Data Transfers
We may transfer the personal information that we collect about you to recipients in countries other than the country in which the personal information originally was collected. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the personal information. When we transfer your personal information to recipients in other countries, we will protect that personal information as described in this Privacy Notice.
We will comply with applicable legal requirements by providing adequate protection for the transfer of personal information to data recipients in countries outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the United Kingdom and Switzerland. To the extent these data recipients are in countries that are not recognized by the European Commission or another relevant body as providing an adequate level of data protection, we provide appropriate safeguards aimed at ensuring a required level of data protection, including by entering into Standard Contractual Clauses issued by relevant authorities, such as the European Commission. To obtain a copy of the safeguards we have put in place, please contact us as indicated below.
How We Protect Personal Information
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we obtain against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or use.
Retention of Personal Information
To the extent required by applicable law, we keep the personal information for the period reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes described in our Privacy Policy, plus a reasonable period to comply with the applicable statute of limitations or if otherwise required under applicable law, unless a shorter retention period is required by applicable law.
Your Rights and Choices
