When you first visit the Websites, you will be asked to consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies on the Websites in accordance with this Policy, and if you accept, we will store cookies and similar technologies on your computer.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are pieces of data sent to your browser when you visit a website and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies may store user preferences and other information. For example, cookies can store your session information for easy log-in to a website or platform, or your language or user interface customization preferences or may allow websites to record your browsing activities (for example, number of page views, number of visitors, and time spent on each page).

We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for a set period of time or until you delete it.

How We Use Cookies

We classify cookies in the following categories:

Categories of Use	Purpose
Strictly Necessary	Necessary cookies are absolutely essential for the website to function properly. These cookies ensure basic functionalities and security features of the website, anonymously. Without these cookies, basic functions of the Websites and Software Services would not work. For example, on the www.higherlogic.com and hug.higherlogic.com Websites we use a cookie called “ASP.NET”, a session cookie used to track a visitor’s identity during a particular session, and a cookie named “HLAuthToken” which contains credentials to authenticate a user). On the Software Services, we use session cookies for authentication and authorization purposes and to track a visitor’s identity during a particular session.	Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver our services, users cannot refuse them.
Preferences	These cookies are used to store choices you make and your preferences regarding our services (such as your user name, language or the region you are in, enable user interface customization). These cookies allow us to provide enhanced, more personal features (such as enabling customer support for users, for example offering live support chat). These cookies are not essential for using our services. However, without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable or may not function properly. For example, on the Websites we use cookies for use in managing the display of items or content (such as PageSize, SortField). On the Software Services, we use user interface customization cookies to store Subscribers’ preferences such as grid preferences (columns, sort order, etc.) or to enable certain functions, such as to prepopulate the input of the RSS feed dialog.	You can block or delete these cookies by changing the browser settings as explained below.
Analytics	These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around the Websites and Software Services when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way the Websites and Software Services work, for example by making sure visitors are finding what they need easily. The information collected through these cookies include anonymous traffic statistics, like number of page views, number of visitors, and time spent on each page. In particular, we use cookies from Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”) for our products Real Magnet and Informz. The information collected by Google (including your internet protocol (IP) address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information on our behalf for the purpose of evaluating your use of the Websites, compiling reports on the Websites activity and providing further services to us relating to the Websites usage. Learn more about Google Analytics’ privacy practices, and see a copy of Google’s privacy policy, at the following link: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en&ref_topic=2919631. On the Real Magnet and Informz Software Services, we use Higher Logic’s Analytics cookies to track visits across pages on the Software Services and landing pages (for example, on Real Magnet we use tracking cookies named _rm_tk, _rm_ts and _rm_lprq; on the Informz Platform, we use tracking cookies named _sp_id, _sp_ses).	You can block or delete these cookies by changing the browser settings as explained below.

Higher Logic does not control the placement of such cookies. Use of these cookies is governed by Subscriber’s own privacy and cookie policies.

III. Other Technologies

Higher Logic may use a tracking technique that employs embedded URLs to allow use of the Websites without cookies. Embedded URLs allow limited information to follow you as you navigate the Websites but are not associated with Personal Data and are not used beyond the session.

Higher Logic and its service providers may use embedded pixel technologies (or pixel tags) for the purposes of identifying unique user visits (as opposed to aggregate hits) and for advertising purposes. In addition, embedded pixels or other technologies may be used in e-mails and our online display advertising to provide information on when the e-mail or ad was opened to track marketing campaign responsiveness; information collected using these technologies may be associated with the recipient’s e-mail address.

We may use widgets, which are interactive mini-programs that run on our site to provide specific services from another company (e.g., links to bookmarked sites), along with buttons or other tools that link to other companies’ services (e.g., a “Like” button or another entity’s map). The widget, button or tool may collect and automatically send Personal Data, such as your e-mail address, or other Information (such as your browser information, or IP address), to another entity. Cookies may also be set or used by the widgets, buttons or tools to enable them to function properly or for other purposes, which may include advertising. Information collected or used by a widget, button or tool, including cookie settings and preferences, is governed by the privacy policy of the company that created it.

We use mobile analytics software to allow us to better understand the functionality of our mobile software on your phone. This software may record information such as how often you use the Apps, the events that occur within the Apps, aggregated usage, performance data, and where the Apps was downloaded from. We do not link the information we store within the analytics software to any Personal Data you submit within the Apps.
