Do we use cookies?
Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow in your browser setting). These cookies enable the site to recognize your browser and, if you have a registered account, associate it with your registered account.
We use cookies to understand and save your preferences for future visits, such as language and geographical region, and compile aggregate data about your website usage, site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business. We do not track your activities on other sites.
You can choose to reject or turn off cookies through your browser settings. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all the functionalities of our Website.
Do we disclose any information to outside parties?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside (non-affiliated) parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our site, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
Zscaler is a global company, with affiliates in many countries. To conduct our business on this site, your information will be transferred to Zscaler in the United States, or to affiliates of Zscaler, which may be outside of the United States. Transfers will occur in compliance with applicable requirements. If you are in the European Union and your information is transferred to a country not approved by the EU Commission as providing adequate protection for the rights and freedoms of data subjects, your information will be protected using data transfer agreements based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or another approved data transfer mechanism.
We may employ third party companies and individuals to provide services associated with the Website, to perform site-related services (e.g., without limitation, maintenance services, database management, web analytics, and improvement of the site’s features), to analyze use of our site or to conduct marketing activities on our behalf (e.g., email management firms and internet advertising platforms, etc.). We do not allow service providers to share your information with others without our authorization, or to use it for their own purposes.
We may disclose personal information to any law enforcement agency or governmental agency in response to:
- A subpoena, warrant or other process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction;
- A legal process having the same consequence as a court-issued request for information, in that by refusing to provide such information, we would violate the law, and we or our officers, executives or employees would be subject to liability for failing to honor such legal process;
- Where such disclosure is necessary for us to enforce our legal rights pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction from which such information was gathered; or
- Where such disclosure is necessary to prevent or lessen a serious and imminent threat of bodily harm to the data subject.
