Cookies and Other Data Collection Technologies

Our Sites use cookies. A “cookie” is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device when you enter a website or a mobile app. It enables the website or mobile app to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time. While the cookies we use may change from time to time, they generally fall into one of the following categories:

Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are strictly necessary in order for you to use the services, load and view content, and access your account.
Functionality cookies. These cookies help us remember you and personalize features and content for you on the services.
Preference cookies. These cookies allow us to capture and store your information privacy related preferences (e.g., your opt-in and opt-out), account settings, and certain login information.
Analytics cookies. These cookies help us and our service providers compile statistics and analytics about platform users, including traffic, usage, demographic, and trend data. For example, we may use HubSpot, Google Analytics, and other service providers to help us understand how users engage with the platform. Google Analytics uses cookies to track your interactions with the platform, then collects that information and reports it to us. This information helps us improve the Platform so that we can better serve you. If you wish, you can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
Advertising cookies. These cookies will display advertising on our website and on third party websites. Some of these advertisements may be interest-based, meaning that they are tailored to your interests or behaviors on our website or on other websites.

Retention of Your Personal Information

As a general matter, we may keep your Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected.

Security of Your Information

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure of your information in our custody and control. No data, on the Internet or otherwise, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, Alcanza cannot and does not ensure or warrant the security of your information.

Do Not Track
