Non-Personal Information

Conversion Digital collects non-Personal Information (“NPI”) about Users when they interact with the Site or use our services.  For example, we collect information about what site referred you to our website, your browser type, operating system type and version, language, and your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address. We also collect information about how you browse through our website, including logging the pages you visit and the amount of time you spend on certain pages.  See the section below entitled “How does Conversion Digital collect, use and share NPI?” for more information.

 

Please note that Personal Information does not include information that is aggregated or anonymized in such a manner that it cannot be connected to you or any other User. Such information by itself or together cannot be tracked to a specific individual’s Personal Information.

VI.  HOW DOES CONVERSION DIGITAL COLLECT, USE AND SHARE NPI?  

 

Conversion Digital uses NPI in an ongoing effort to better understand and serve our customers and to improve the content and functionality of our Site.

 

In addition, Conversion Digital  may use Personal Information, on an aggregated de-identified basis, for research purposes to improve our Site or services.  This aggregated de-identified information does not identify any individual and therefore is considered and treated as NPI under this Privacy Policy.  For instance, Conversion Digital uses NPI to monitor traffic and to collect statistical data.

 

No NPI by itself, or together with aggregated Personal Information, can be tracked to a specific individual's Personal Information.

 

 

VII. CONSENT

Your consent may be expressed or implied. You may expressly give your consent in writing, verbally or through any electronic means.  In certain circumstances, your consent may be implied by your actions.  For example, providing Conversion Digital Personal Information to register for our sevices is implied consent to use such information to provide you with the associated services.

 

Where appropriate, Conversion Digital will generally seek consent for the use or disclosure of the information at the time of collection. In certain circumstances, consent with respect to use or disclosure may be sought after the information has been collected but before use (for example, when Conversion Digital wants to use information for a purpose other than those identified above).  In obtaining consent, Conversion Digital will use reasonable efforts to ensure that a User is advised of the identified purposes for which Personal Information collected will be used or disclosed.

 

The form of consent sought by Conversion Digital may vary, depending upon the circumstances and type of information disclosed. In determining the appropriate form of consent, Conversion Digital shall take into account the sensitivity of the Personal Information and the reasonable expectations of Conversion Digital’s Users.  Conversion Digital will seek express consent when the information is likely to be considered sensitive. Implied consent will generally be appropriate where the information is less sensitive. 

 

You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. In order to withdraw consent, you must provide notice to Conversion Digital in writing.
