When you visit our website (www.bricata.com) or access or use our Services or Products, we, our service providers, and certain third parties automatically collect certain data using tracking technologies like cookies and web beacons. This Cookie Notice (the “Notice”) describes what tracking technologies are used and what they are used for.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your device’s hard drive through your web browser for record-keeping purposes. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our website and services, while others are used to enable a faster log-in process or to allow us to track your activities at our website and services. By themselves, cookies do not identify you specifically. Rather, they recognize your web browser. So, unless you identify yourself specifically to us, like filling out a webform, we do not know who you are just because you visited our website. Nonetheless, you can turn off your web browser’s ability to accept cookies; however, if you do, certain parts of our website or Products may not work for you.
There are two types of cookies: first-party and third-party. The table below describes the specific types of first-party and third-party cookies and the purposes they perform:
|

Each time you log into the portal, a cookie containing an encrypted, unique identifier that is tied to your account is placed on your browser. These cookies allow us to uniquely identify you when you are logged into the portal and to process your online transactions and requests. |

You can use your browser settings to opt out of functionality cookies. For more information on how to do that, click here. Note that opting out may affect the functionality of our website. |
| Performance cookies
|
These cookies collect data about how visitors use our websites. This includes data like which pages visitors go to the most, or which features are accessed most often. These cookies do not collect information that individually identifies visitors to our website or users of our Products. The data these cookies collect is aggregated and intended to be anonymous and used to improve how website and Products function and perform.
We may also have third party service providers help us track and analyze usage and volume statistical information from individuals who visit our website. |

| Targeting or Advertising cookies | We may have third parties (including our service providers) track and analyze usage and volume statistical information from those who visit our website. For example, we sometimes use cookies placed by its third-party service providers to track the performance of our advertisements. These cookies remember which browsers have visited the website; however, the data given to the third-party service providers typically does not include information that identifies you specifically, but it may be re-associated with information that identifies you specifically after we receive it. |

To learn more about how to opt out of targeting and advertising cookies, you can go to the Your Online Choices page, the Network Advertising Initiative page, and the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Choice page. These opt-out tools are provided by third parties, not us. We do not control or operate these tools or the choices that advertisers and others provide through these tools. |
We use web beacons along with cookies to gather data about use of our website, support portals, and Products. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of data on your computer, like cookies. For example, when you viewed a particular website tied to the web beacon and a description of a website tied to the web beacon. We may put web beacons in marketing emails or advertisements that notify us when you click on a link in the email that directs you to a website or one of its pages, or when you click on a link provided on our website. Our use of web beacons helps us operate and improve our website and communications.
When you visit our websites, account portals, or use our Products, we may collect your IP addresses to track and analyze information about the devices that are connecting to our systems and about where those devices are located. For example, we use IP addresses to track which regions visitors to our website logging into our portal come from to detect fraud. We however assign a unique identification number to the IP address and we do not retain any IP address beyond that web session.
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that you can set in most web browsers. Certain state laws require us to indicate whether we honor DNT settings in your browser. We currently do not support DNT as there is no accepted standard on how to respond to web browsers’ DNT signals and even when you have DNT enabled, we may still use information collected for analytics and measurement purposes or to otherwise provide our Products or Services. You can learn more about Do Not Track here.
Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) use cookies, over which we have no control. We or third parties may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser when you visit our websites for the purpose of serving you targeted advertising (also referred to as “online behavioral advertising” or “interest-based advertising”). To learn more about targeted advertising and advertising networks please visit the opt-out pages of the Network Advertising Initiative, here, and the Digital Advertising Alliance, here.
To manage the use of targeting and advertising cookies on our websites, consult your individual browser settings for cookies.

These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide relevant advertisements about goods and service that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. See above for more information and opt-out options.
Information privacy is a constant responsibility so we may update this Notice as we adopt new personal data and privacy practices. We will post any changes we make to this Notice at www.bricata.com. Please check back frequently to see any updates or changes to this Notice.
