Cookies

To enhance your experience on our Web Sites, many of our web pages use "cookies". Cookies are bits of electronic information that a web site can transfer to a visitor’s hard drive to help tailor and keep records of his or her visit.  Cookies are required to use most Intellum services.  You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access most of Intellum’s services. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our Web Sites.  If you proceed with using our Web Sites without deactivating cookies through your browser, you are deemed to have accepted our use of cookies.

Web Beacons

Pages of our services or our e-mails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) that permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an e-mail and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).

Data Storage

Intellum uses third party vendors and hosting partners to provide some of the necessary hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology required to run the Websites. Although Intellum owns the code, databases, and all rights to the Websites, you retain all rights to your data.

Protecting Personal Information

We understand the importance of safeguarding your Information.  We employ administrative, physical, and electronic measures designed to protect your Information from unauthorized access.  We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, taking into account technological reality, cost, the scope, context and purposes of processing weighted against the severity and likelihood that the processing could threaten individual rights and freedom.  Despite our efforts, we cannot guarantee the security of your Information. Accordingly, we assume no liability for any disclosure of data due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third-party access or other acts of third parties, or acts or omissions beyond our reasonable control.

Lawful Basis for Transferring your Data: Cross Border Data Transfers

Intellum is a global company with its headquarters located in the United States. Sharing data across borders may be essential in the performance of the services which we provide, and as a result, your Personal Information may be collected, transferred to and stored by us and our affiliates outside your jurisdiction, including outside the European Economic Area (EEA), and in countries that are not subject to an adequacy decision by the European Commission and that may not provide for the same level of data protection as your jurisdiction.  When we transfer Personal Information we implement safeguards for protection of the transferred Personal Information, such as standard contractual clauses and/or the EU-U.S Data Privacy Framework as further described in this Policy.

Third Party Websites

This Privacy Policy applies only to our Web Sites.  This Privacy Policy does not apply to any websites managed, maintained, and/or hosted by third parties not directly affiliated with Intellum that you may visit, e.g., via a link provided through the Web Sites or on a website maintained by any third party.  We do not control the privacy policies of other websites to which we may provide hyperlinks.  We cannot be responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such non-Intellum websites, and we do not control the practices of any of the third party websites or service providers to whose sites we link. We encourage you to learn more about the online privacy and data security policies of third party websites directly from such third parties, as their policies may differ from ours.

Children’s Privacy

We are committed to protecting the privacy of children.  Our solutions are not intended for anyone under the age of 13.

Our services will never knowingly accept, collect, maintain or use any information from a child under the age of 13. If a child whom we know to be under the age of 13 sends Personal Data to us online, we will only use that information to respond directly to that child or notify parents.
