Cookie Notice/Policy

The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include cookies, local storage cookies, web beacons, pixel tracking, GIF and/or IP address. Each of these is discussed below.

Cookies (or browser cookies)

A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device. It may contain certain data, including, but not limited to: the name of the server that has placed it there, an identifier in the form of a unique number, and, an expiration date (some cookies only). Cookies are managed by the web browser on your computer or mobile device (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari or Google Chrome).

Different types of cookies which have different purposes are used on our Site.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential to allow you to browse our Site and use its functions. Without them, services such as shopping baskets and electronic invoicing would not be able to work.

Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information on the use of our Site, such as which pages are consulted most often. This information enables us to optimize our Site and simplify browsing. Performance cookies also enable our affiliates and partners to find out whether you have accessed one of our Sites from their site and whether your visit has led to the use or purchase of a product or Service from our Site, including the references for the product or Service purchased. These cookies do not collect any information which could be used to identify you. All the information collected is aggregated, and therefore anonymous.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable our Site to remember the choices you have made when browsing. For example, we can store your geographical location in a cookie so that the Site corresponding to your area is shown. We can also remember your preferences, such as the text size, font and other customizable aspects of the Site. Functionality cookies may also be able to keep track of the products or videos consulted to avoid repetition. The information collected by these cookies cannot be used to identify you and cannot monitor your browsing activity on sites which do not belong to us.

It is possible that you will come across third-party cookies on some pages of sites that are not under our control.

We also use cookies to implement tracking technology on our Site. This allows us to display advertising that is tailored to you on our Site which parts of our content interest you the most and which Service categories you request. This tracking uses De-Identified Personal Information data). We will not combine this data with your other Personal Information without your express permission. Some of our service providers are allowed to place cookies on our Site. Those companies may also provide you with the option of preventing the use of cookies in the future. For more information, contact the relevant third-party provider.

At any time, you can prevent the use of cookies in the future. You may activate the appropriate setting in your browser to refuse to accept browser cookies. However, if you do, your experience on our Site may be affected; e.g., you may be unable to access certain parts of our Site. 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 Site.

Local Storage Cookies. Certain features of our Site may use local stored objects (or Adobe Flash cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from and on our Site. Local storage cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies.

Web Beacons. Pages of our Site and our emails 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 email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).

Pixel Tracking. In addition to using Cookies, the Site may employ “pixel tracking”, a common process which may be used in connection with advertisements on other sites. Pixel tracking involves the use of pixel tags that are not visible to the user and consist of a few lines of computer code. Pixel tracking measures the effectiveness of advertisements and compiles aggregate and specific usage statistics. A “pixel tag” is an invisible tag placed on certain pages of websites that is used to track an individual user’s activity. We may access these pixel tags to identify activity and interests that may allow us to better match our products, services, and offers with your interests and needs. For example, if you visit our Site from an advertisement on another website, the pixel tag will allow the advertiser to track that its advertisement brought you to the Site. If you visit our Site, and we link you to another website, we may also be able to determine that you were sent to and/or transacted with a third-party website. This data is collected for use in our marketing, research, and other activities.

GIF. We may use tiny images known as clear GIFs to track behavior of users, including statistics on who opens our emails.

IP Address. Our servers automatically record certain log file information reported from your browser when you access the Services. These server logs may include information such as which pages of the Service you visited, your internet protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, and other information on how you interact with the Services. These log files are generally deleted periodically.

Information We Collect from Third Parties

We may collect information that others provide about you when you use the Site, or obtain information from other sources and combine that with information we collect through the Site.

Third Party Services. If you link, connect, or login to your account with a third party social media service (e.g., Facebook, Google, Instagram, Yelp, etc.), the third party service may send us information such as your registration and profile information from that service. This information varies and is controlled by that service or as authorized by you via your privacy settings at that service.
Employment and Background Information. For job applicants in the United States, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, we may obtain reports from public records of criminal convictions or sex offender registrations. For applicants outside of the United States, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, we may obtain the local version of background or checks. You agree to and do hereby consent to our use of your information, including your full name and date of birth, to obtain such reports. If someone has written a reference for you, it will be published on your public profile page.
Other Sources. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may receive additional information about you, such as demographic data or fraud detection information, from third party service providers and/or partners, and combine it with information we have about you. For example, we may receive background check results or fraud warnings from service providers like identity verification services for our fraud prevention and risk assessment efforts. We may receive information about you and your activities on and off the Site through partnerships, or about your experiences and interactions from our partner ad networks.

The following section applies only to California residents.

California Online Privacy Protection Act (“CalOPPA”; Calif. Bus. & Prof. Code § 22575-22578, available here ):

CalOPPA applies only to companies which collect Personal Information of California residents.

How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals.

CalOPPA requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Because there currently isn’t an industry or legal standard recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we don’t respond to them at this time. We await the result of work by the privacy community and industry to determine when such a response is appropriate and what form it should take.

Visitors can visit our Site anonymously by adjusting the settings in your browser.

Third-Party Behavioral Tracking. We allow third-party behavioral tracking (such as by Google) of Personal Information, though we may use De-Identified Personal Information to track users’ click or browsing patterns.

California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”, available here ): If you are a California resident (occasionally referred to herein as “Consumer”), California law provides you with additional rights regarding our use of your Personal Information.

This “Privacy Notice for California Residents” section does not apply (at least until January 1, 2021) to the Personal Information of California residents that we collect:

As permitted by CCPA we may delete your Personal Information by (a) permanently and completely erasing the Personal Information on our existing systems with the exception of archived or back-up systems; (b) de-identifying the Personal Information; or, (c) aggregating the Personal Information.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our Service Provider(s) to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the Personal Information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable Consumer request to us (see the contact information below). Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable Consumer request related to your Personal Information. You may also make a verifiable Consumer request on behalf of your minor child. You may only make a verifiable Consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable Consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or an authorized representative; and,
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. Making a verifiable Consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable Consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Verification Process

Email Verification Method: Upon receiving a data access or deletion request from you we will send an email to you at the email address we have for you on file. The email will ask you to respond to verify you as the Consumer making the request. Upon receipt of your verification we will match your information to that which is in our file. Upon verification of your identity we will proceed to process your request (subject to the exceptions stated above).

Response Timing and Format

We will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) days of receiving it. We will respond to a verifiable Consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to an additional forty-five (45) days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable Consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable Consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Please note that this right does not apply to business-to-business customers, employment applicants, or independent contractors to us, or if the disclosure of Personal Information is for purposes consistent with the California resident’s reasonable expectations, when considering the submission’s circumstances.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you simply for your exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

Deny you goods or services;
Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including by refusing to gran discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;
Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services; or,
Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES PRIVACY POLICY

This career opportunities privacy policy (“Career Opportunities Privacy Policy”), which forms part of our general Privacy Policy set forth above, and applies only to our career opportunities website portal, lets you know how we and our affiliates and subsidiaries (or “we” or “our” or “us”) collect and use your personal information in connection with our recruiting efforts more generally, both online and offline. This Career Opportunities Privacy Policy describes the broadest potential use of personal information. We may make less use of your personal information than is described here.

Your provision of personal information in connection with the recruiting or job application process confirms your consent for us to collect that information and to use, transfer, retain and share it with third parties as specified in this Career Opportunities Privacy Policy.

Collecting Personal Information. In connection with our recruiting and job application process, you may provide personal information to us. We ask for certain data, including (unless prohibited by applicable law) educational and employment background, contact information and preferences, job qualifications, and jobs for which you would like to submit an application. You also may choose to provide us additional information, such as your CV, resume, and/or transcripts; employment references and related information; and compensation requests. In addition, we may collect information from third parties, for example, in connection with a background or employment check and/or an employment reference (as permitted by applicable law).

Our websites may also use cookies, which will be done in accordance with our general Privacy Policy.

Sensitive Personal Information. We do not request or require sensitive personal information concerning religion, health, sexual orientation, or political affiliation in connection with recruiting. If you have a disability and would like us to consider any accommodation, you may provide that information during the recruiting process. In some countries we ask for information such as race or ethnicity for the purpose of monitoring equal opportunity; however, we do not require applicants to provide race or ethnicity information, and if you provide this information it will not be considered in the hiring or selection process.

To the extent information you provide contains details of your racial or ethnic origin; political opinions or beliefs; religious beliefs; membership in a trade union or political party; physical or mental health or condition; sexual orientation; commission or alleged commission of a criminal offense; job evaluations or educational records, you expressly authorize us to handle such details as specified in this Career Opportunities Privacy Policy.

We require by written agreement that our service providers and such other third parties keep your personal information confidential and that they only use the personal information in furtherance of the specific purpose for which it was disclosed.
