As part of our commitment to our Global Privacy Principles, we protect the privacy of visitors to our websites (collectively, the “Website”), and users of our services (“users”), in each case in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

By using our Website, our services, or communicating with us, you acknowledge that your Personal Information will be processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy, including any updates and amendments.

Information We Collect and How We Collect It

In terms of the type of information we collect, there are two basic types: Personal Information and non-Personal Information.

  • Personal Information is information that relates (directly or indirectly) to you. Specifically, we may collect and process, among other things, the following information about you:
    • Personal identifiers, such as your name, address, email address, telephone number.
    • Web use information, such as IP address, website, other unique identifiers associated with you, your computer or other mobile device, your internet or other electronic network activity.
    • Other information voluntarily provided to us by you when contacting us through the Website or responding to calls to action on the Website, e.g., user submissions, subscription requests, requests for further information about our services.
    • Information associated with or derived from other information about you that we process, such as, inferences.
  • Non-Personal Information is information that does not relate to you, such as aggregated, de-identified, or anonymous data. This type of information gives us insights regarding, for example, how visitors use the Website and which sections are of interest. This information is used for our commercial purposes, including to ensure the effectiveness of our Website, email communications and that marketing efforts continue to appeal to existing and potential clients and collaborators. Additionally, we may collect aggregate or anonymized demographic information while providing services to our clients, such as demographic information about an audience’s particular interests.

Information You Provide

We may collect Personal Information from you when you choose to provide it to us when you request information about our services, such as through the “contact” feature, sign up for a newsletter, set up a voluntary user profile to post content within our forums or use any interactive feature. This information may include, without limitation, your name, physical address, and email address. Under such circumstances we will process this information consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Information We Obtain Through Our Services

We may collect Personal Information about you when you or a third party acting on your behalf engages with our services. Our services may involve contests, promotions, surveys, or voting polls that we promote. Participation in these events is voluntary, but when you choose to engage with our services, we may collect Personal Information about you, such as your name, physical address, and email address to facilitate the event, event fulfillment, or communicate with you about other promotional events. These types of events often have their own supplementary privacy policy and terms which provide more detailed information about how your information is collected and used. Any such policy and terms shall prevail over this Privacy Policy.

Information From Third Parties and Publicly Available Sources

We may collect Personal Information about you and/or influencers from third parties (e.g. their employer) or from publicly available sources (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, X, and LinkedIn) including via publicly available application programming interfaces provided by social media platforms).

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Our Website may use tracking technologies such as “cookies” to provide visitors with tailored information upon each visit. Cookies are a common part of many commercial websites that allow small text files to be sent by a website, accepted by a web browser and then placed on your hard drive as recognition for repeat visits to the Website. Every time you visit the Website, our servers, through cookies, pixels and/or GIF files, collect basic technical information such as your domain name, the address of the last URL visited prior to clicking through to the Website, and your browser and operating system. We may also use third party analytical tools (e.g. Google Analytics) to analyze activities on and use of the Website to improve the navigation, content, and design of the Website. You do not need to enable cookies to visit the Website; however, some parts of the Website and some services may be more difficult or impossible to use if cookies are disabled. Some cookie files remain on your computer’s hard drive unless and until you manually delete the file.
