About People Expertise Portfolio News & Insights Careers Contact Privacy Policy Website Privacy Statement Brailsford & Dunlavey (“B&D”) upholds its integrity by respecting your privacy. This Privacy Statement (“Statement”) describes the information that B&D collects through its website, www.bdconnect.com, (the “Site”) and how it uses such information. Your viewing/use of B&D’s website signifies your agreement with the contents of this Statement. WHAT B&D COLLECTS Brailsford & Dunlavey gathers “Personally Identifiable Information,” “Site Usage Data,” and “IP Addresses” through this Site. Personally Identifiable Information is information that identifies a person as an individual, such as your name, company, title, postal address, telephone number, or e-mail address. Site Usage Data is aggregated information, demographic information, and any other information that does not reveal anyone’s specific identity. An IP Address is the Internet Protocol address of the computer that you are using. B&D may use your information for the following general purposes: to customize the content you see, fulfill your requests for services, improve its services, contact you, conduct research, and provide anonymous reporting for internal and external clients. PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION: You do not have to provide B&D with your Personally Identifiable Information to use this Site. However, certain services to which you may subscribe through the website (e.g., e-mail messages, employment opportunities, and event announcements) may require you to provide Personally Identifiable Information. B&D collects Personally Identifiable Information from you only when you voluntarily provide it to the company. If and when it is collected, B&D may use Personally Identifiable Information in the following ways: FULFILLMENT OF REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATION: B&D processes Personally Identifiable Information to comply with your requests, respond to your inquiries, and send you information that you request. If you contact B&D by e-mail through the Site, B&D may keep a record of your contact information and correspondence, and use it to respond to you. B&D may further use Personally Identifiable Information to fulfill any other purposes for which it was provided, and as disclosed at the time the data are collected. INTERNAL BUSINESS PURPOSES: B&D may also use Personally Identifiable Information about you for its internal business purposes, such as data analysis, audits, and other similar purposes. SITE USAGE DATA: When you visit and interact with the Site, B&D and third parties with whom it has contracted with for services may collect Site Usage Data (e.g., a catalog of the Site pages you visit). Such non-Personally Identifiable Information may include your MAC address, your computer type, screen resolution, OS version, and Internet browser. Site Usage Data may also include demographic data, such as your location. To enhance your experience on the Site, B&D and its service providers may use cookies on the Site. Cookies are data that a web server transfers to an individual’s computer for recordkeeping and other purposes. B&D uses cookies and other technologies to facilitate users’ ongoing access to and use of its Site. B&D and its service providers may also use various Internet technologies, such as “pixel tags,” “action tags,” “web bugs,” “.gif tags,” “JavaScript,” or similar technologies (together, “Tracking Tools”) in connection with Site pages and e-mail messages in certain formats to, among other things, track the actions of Site users and e-mail recipients, to determine the success of marketing campaigns, and to compile aggregate statistics about website usage and response rates. Tracking Tools allow B&D to count users who have visited certain pages of the Site, to deliver branded services, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in e-mail messages in certain formats, Tracking Tools can tell the sender whether and when the e-mail has been opened. Brailsford & Dunlavey uses these technologies to customize and enhance the Internet experience of individual users. When you revisit the Site, B&D may recognize you by a Tracking Tool and customize your experience accordingly. For example, once you have completed the registration process, a Tracking Tool or cookie will be used to avoid having you register again. Because Site Usage Data does not personally identify you, B&D may use such information for any purpose. In addition, B&D reserves the right to share such website Usage Data with third parties for any purpose. As an example, B&D may use aggregated Site Usage Data to help it improve the Site and the services that B&D provides through the website. Please note that to the extent any website Usage Data is linked with Personally Identifiable Information, such linked information will be treated as Personally Identifiable Information as long as it is linked. IP ADDRESSES: When you visit and interact with the website, Brailsford & Dunlavey and third parties with whom B&D has contracted for services may collect Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses. Your IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to the computer that you are using by your Internet Service Provider. This number is identified and logged automatically whenever you visit the Site, along with the time(s) of your visit(s) and the page(s) that you visited.
