Certus Privacy Statement
Version 1.0 – Effective May 1, 2018
Certus Cybersecurity Solutions, LLC (“Certus Cybersecurity”) respects your right to privacy and your desire to control your personal data that you share with us. We have developed this Privacy Statement to inform you about our privacy practices for our public-facing websites (“Certus Cybersecurity Websites”). This Privacy Statement describes how Certus Cybersecurity collects, uses, shares, and secures the personal information you provide to Certus Cybersecurity other than through Certus Cybersecurity’s Cloud Services. It also describes your choices regarding the use, access, and collection of your personal information.
There are two ways in which you may explicitly and intentionally provide us with and consent to our collection of certain personal information:
• E-mail Request for Information or Registrations for Guides or Seminars – We use links throughout our site to provide you with the opportunity to contact us via e-mail to ask questions, request information and materials, register or sign up for guides, seminars, training classes or provide comments and suggestions. You may also be offered the opportunity to have one of our representatives contact you personally to provide additional information about our services. To do so, we may request additional personal information from you, such as your name, telephone number, and other address information, to help us satisfy your request.
• Recruitment and Employment – You may choose to provide us with information about yourself, such as a résumé or other employment-related information in connection with a job application or inquiry, whether advertised on the Certus Cybersecurity site or as otherwise provided by Certus Cybersecurity. Certus Cybersecurity may use this information throughout Certus Cybersecurity and its related entities for employment consideration or as you inquire. Statistical Information About Your Visit When you visit Certus Cybersecurity Websites, our systems collect personal information (in the manner described above) and statistical or non-personally identifiable information about your visit to our sites (e.g., IP address, pages visited, origin of visitor domains, and types of browsers used). However, unless you actively submit personal information, we do not typically identify you via non-personally identifiable information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to combine non-personal information with personal information you have actively submitted.
Certus and its partners use cookies or similar technologies to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, and gather demographic information about our user base. A “cookie” is a piece of information that Certus Cybersecurity Websites send to your browser. Your browser stores the cookie on your system. The cookie will allow Certus Cybersecurity to remember information about you and your preferences until either you exit your current browser window (if the cookie is temporary) or you disable or delete the cookie. Many users prefer to use cookies in order to help them navigate a website as seamlessly as possible. You should be aware that cookies contain no more information than you volunteer, and they are not able to “invade” your hard drive and return personal or other information from your computer. If you do not want Certus Cybersecurity to deploy cookies in your browser, you can set your browser to reject cookies or notify you when a website tries to put a cookie in your browser software. Rejecting cookies may affect your ability to use some of our products and/or services. List of Third-Party Cookies: Various third-party cookies may, in the future, be set by third-party entities and used for statistical and marketing purposes. We may, in the future, partner with a third party to display and manage advertising. Our third-party partners may use cookies or similar technologies to provide you with advertising based on your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising, please contact us at info@certuscyber.com.
Certus Cybersecurity may, in the future, use web beacons alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about site visitors’ usage of the site and interaction with emails from Certus Cybersecurity. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of information on your computer, such as cookies, when you view a particular website tied to the web beacon and a description of a website tied to the web beacon. For example, Certus may place web beacons in marketing emails that collect information when you click on a link in the email that directs you to Certus Cybersecurity’s site. We use web beacons to operate and improve Certus Cybersecurity’s site and email communications. Certus Cybersecurity may use information from web beacons in combination with data about Certus Cybersecurity to provide you with information about Certus Cybersecurity and Certus Cybersecurity Services.
We will share your personal information with third parties only in the ways described in this privacy policy. We do not sell your personal information to third parties. In some cases, Certus Cybersecurity uses suppliers to collect, use, analyze, and otherwise process information on its behalf. It is Certus Cybersecurity’s practice to require such suppliers and other service providers to handle information in a manner consistent with Certus Cybersecurity’s policies and to use your personal information only as necessary to provide these services to us. We may also disclose your personal information as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request. We may also disclose your personal information if Certus Cybersecurity is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of its assets.
If you use a blog, forum, or other chat tool on a Certus Cybersecurity Website, you should be aware that any personal information you submit there can be read, collected, or used by other users of these forums, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. Certus Cybersecurity is not responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these forums. You are also responsible for using these forums in a manner consistent with the applicable Terms of Use or other terms and conditions set forth on the relevant forum site.
