Choices for Cookies and Similar Technologies. See the Cookies & Similar Technologies section for choices about cookies and other analytics and advertising controls.

COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

We use cookies, web beacons, and advertising IDs, and similar technologies to operate our websites and online services and to help collect data, including other identifiers and device information and usage data.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to store data that can be recalled by a web server in the same domain that placed the cookie. The text in a cookie often consists of a string of numbers and letters that uniquely identifies your device, but it can contain other information as well.

Web beacons are electronic images (also called single-pixel or clear GIFs) that are contained within a website. When your browser opens a webpage that contains a web beacon, it automatically connects to the web server that hosts the image (typically hosted by a third-party). This allows that web server to log information about your device and to set and read its own cookies. In the same way, third-party content on our websites (such as embedded videos, plug-ins, or ads) results in your browser connecting to the third-party web server that hosts that content. We also include web beacons in our promotional email messages or newsletters to tell us if you open and act on them.

We, and our analytics and advertising partners, use these technologies on our Website and as part of our Services to collect personal data (such as the cookies stored on your browser or the IP address of your device) when you visit our Website or access and use our Services. This information is used to store your preferences and settings, enable you to sign-in, analyze how our Website and Services perform, track your interaction with the Website or Services, develop inferences, deliver and tailor interest-based advertising, combat fraud, and fulfill other legitimate purposes. We and/or our partners also share the information we collect or infer with third parties for these purposes.

The third-party analytics and advertising provider we use on our websites is:

Matomo
www.matomo.org

To learn about their privacy practices and how to opt-out from their use of cookie data for targeted advertising purposes, click on the links above.

You may also contact the associations below, which provide a simple way to opt out of analytics and ad targeting, which you can access at:

United States: NAI (http://optout.networkadvertising.org) and DAA (http://optout.aboutads.info/)

Canada: Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada (https://youradchoices.ca/)

Europe: European Digital Advertising Alliance (http://www.youronlinechoices.com/)

Cookie controls. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can go to your browser settings to learn how to delete or reject cookies. If you choose to delete or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our website. If you choose to delete cookies, settings and preferences controlled by those cookies, including advertising preferences, may be deleted and may need to be recreated.

Email web beacons. Most email clients have settings which allow you prevent the automatic downloading of images, which will disable web beacons in the email messages you read.

Do Not Track. Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, our websites do not currently respond to browser DNT signals. Instead, you can use the range of other tools to control data collection and use, including the cookie controls and advertising controls described above.

NOTICE TO END USER

If you use an email address provided by an organization you are affiliated with, such as an employer, to access Services, that organization can:

Control and administer your Services account; and

Access and process your data, including the contents of your communications and files, associated with your Services accounts.

If you lose access to your organization (in event of change of employment, for example), you will lose access to Services. SCS Services are intended for use by organizations. If your organization provides you access to Services your use of the Services is subject to your organization’s policies, if any. You should direct your privacy inquiries, including any requests to exercise your data protection rights, to your organization’s administrator. SCS is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of our customers with respect to such data described above, which may differ from those set forth in this privacy statement.

You can request access to, and rectification or erasure of, personal data;

If any automated processing of personal data is based on your consent or a contract with you, you have a right to transfer or receive a copy of the personal data in a usable and portable format;

We rely on different lawful bases for collecting and processing personal data about you, for example, with your consent and as necessary to provide the products you use, operate our business, meet our contractual and legal obligations, protect the security of our systems and our customers, or fulfill other legitimate interests.

OTHER IMPORTANT PRIVACY INFORMATION
