Tracking Tools, Advertising and Opt-Out
The Services use cookies and similar technologies such as pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs and JavaScript (collectively, “Cookies”) to enable our servers to recognize your web browser and tell us how and when you visit and use our Services, to analyze trends, learn about our user base and operate and improve our Services. Cookies are small pieces of data– usually text files – placed on your computer, tablet, phone or similar device when you use that device to access our Services. We may also supplement the information we collect from you with information received from third parties, including third parties that have placed their own Cookies on your device(s). Please note that because of our use of Cookies, the Services do not support “Do Not Track” requests sent from a browser at this time. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit https://www.allaboutdnt.com
Our Websites use cookies (small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters that we put on your computer) to distinguish you from other users of our Websites. For more information about our use of cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.
What we collect from customers of Ensighten Services
If you are an Ensighten customer, then when your users access their data via our secure web interface, we collect certain device-related information about the way they use the Ensighten Services, such as their IP address, the type of browser they are using, and the numbers and durations of site visits. We also collect user ID, username, and password.
We use the information that we collect to deliver and improve the Ensighten Services, to relay administrative information, and to verify login information.
What we collect for customers when they use the Ensighten Services
When you use websites owned or controlled by our customers that are using Ensighten Services, you may also be providing certain additional types of information to our customers other than those described above, such as tracking tags and cookies, or any data that our customers choose to collect, store and use.
By default, the Ensighten Services do not collect, store or use any directly-identifying information, such as names or addresses. In fact, we recommend and encourage our customers not to collect, store or use any such directly-identifying personal information in connection with the Ensighten Services.
However, the Ensighten Services will collect certain information about your device. In this context, we collect only the device-related information that our customers instruct us to collect as necessary to provide the Ensighten Services to them. In general, this will typically include certain network-related information, the device’s hardware model, operating system version, and browser type and version. We use this information to help our customers understand the general locale of their visitors, to provide analytics information to our customers about how visitors interact with their digital properties and to monitor, maintain, and improve the Ensighten Services. We encourage our customers to disclose the use of the Ensighten Services in their own privacy statements.
In all cases, whether and what personal information is collected, stored or used will ultimately depend upon the individual privacy practices of the customer website you visit. You should always check the individual privacy policy of each website you visit before providing any information. If you have any questions about how our customers collect, store or use your information, you should contact them directly.

Data Protection Rights.
You have the right to access, review, modify, and delete any personal information which has previously been provided about you that Ensighten holds, or which has been processed in violation of the Principles, except where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy in the case in question, or where the rights of other persons would be violated.

All questions about how an Ensighten customer collects, stores or uses personal data, and requests to review, modify, and delete personal data that was collected by an Ensighten customer, should be addressed directly to that customer.
Legally Required Disclosure.
Ensighten may be required to disclose personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Disputes and Recourse.

Ensighten will (i) cooperate with the DPAs in the investigation and resolution of complaints brought under the Privacy Shield; (ii) comply with any advice given by the DPAs, where the DPAs take the view that Ensighten needs to take specific action to comply with the Privacy Shield Principles, including remedial or compensatory measures for the benefit of individuals affected by any non-compliance with the Principles; and (iii) provide the DPAs with written confirmation that such action has been taken.
Ensighten also will comply with the authority of the Swiss Data Protection and Information Commissioner (see https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/en/home.html), who can be contacted at info@edoeb.admin.ch.
