Automated Data Collection
Like most technology companies, we (and our service providers and certain third parties) collect information about you automatically, including when you interact with Tonic Services. We collect this information through a variety of technologies, which we explain below:
Cookies - A cookie is a small text file that is sent to your browser when you access a website. There are two types of cookies, session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie is available and exists only during the course of the browser session. Closing the browser or logging off will invalidate the session cookie. Persistent cookies, similar to their name, last for a longer period of time, from hours, days, or weeks, and remain on your hard drive (or other storage medium) and record or disclose information about you and your interactions with websites and services. For example, cookies are used to retrieve information that you have previously entered (to allow you not to have to re-enter it), analyze the usage of a website, or track users across websites or services. You can often decide whether and what types of cookies you are willing to accept through your browser’s settings or through third party products that may manage, disclose, or block cookies, like browser plugin-ins or other software.
Web beacons (also known as pixels, internet tags, or clear gifs) – These are tiny graphics on a web page (or in an email) that are used to track pages, viewed, messages opened, or other information. They can provide certain information, including IP address and browser type, or other information about interactions with a website or service.
Embedded Scripts – These are also bits of code on a website or service that measure how a user interacts with a website, application, or service; the scripts are often in JavaScript, a common programming language.
Tonic also collects information automatically about you through logging that is standard on websites. Typically, website logs include your IP address, device type, browser type, access time, and the URL where you came from or where you are going.
Service Provider and Third Party Data Collection and Opt-Outs
Certain service providers and third parties collect information about you when you are interacting with the Tonic Services, including through the automated methods described above. We also use other third parties or service providers to assist us in operating our business and they may receive or store your personal information. Because we value your privacy, we want to be transparent about this data collection, provide you further information, and in some cases provide you methods to opt-out of or control this data collection.
Social Media and Ads
Tonic’s Websites and Online Services include functionality, cookies and other automated data collection from Facebook and LinkedIn. The cookies and other data collection by LinkedIn and Facebook allow us to place ads on certain social media websites, measure your engagement with those ads, tailor ads to you, measure your ad conversion, and provide us information about your interactions with us on social media.
