Privacy Policy

The Adlayout respects the privacy of visitors to its website, event registrants, newsletter and listserv subscribers, member companies and other Adlayout customers and users. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect from these users and how we use, disclose and protect it. Most personal information we obtain is provided voluntarily by the data subject in conjunction with our Association’s activities: we put on events, transmit publications and facilitate member discussions and networking, protect our members’ intellectual property, and engage in advocacy for the technology and content industries.

Please read this policy thoroughly to ensure that you understand the circumstances under which Adlayout collects and uses information and when Adlayout may disclose such information to third parties.


COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

Information Collected From Users of the Adlayout Website. Users to the public areas of Adlayout’s website generally browse anonymously. We do not normally attempt to identify website visitors without a security-related reason. Adlayout uses a third-party service to collect and report aggregate and anonymized data, such as number of page views, unique visitors, frequency of visits, and other visitor traffic metrics. Adlayout collects the IP address of those who report piracy to Adlayout on the site in order to help Adlayout staff judge the reliability of the report. Adlayout will also occasionally collect an IP address when accepting credit card information online to detect duplicate credit card transaction submissions or cases of fraud and to identify organizations that may be interested in sponsoring or otherwise partnering with Adlayout on one or more Adlayout events.

We use cookies (small text files downloaded from our site to your device) in the following ways.

Necessary Cookies. These cookies enable you to move around the website and are intended to make that experience easier—for example, by customizing content to the kind of device you use.

Use Cookies. These cookies tell us how you use the site—what links you click on, and how long you stay on a page. Unless you have logged in using a password, this information is anonymized. It tells us which pages our users have engaged with the most, and how visitors use the site. These cookies help us improve the content on the site and the way that the site functions.

Adlayout asks some users to voluntarily provide some limited information, such as name, job title, company, business address, business phone, fax , e-mail, and, in cases where a payment to Adlayout is required, credit card account information. This information may be submitted to Adlayout through membership applications, conference or seminar registration, publication orders, subscriptions, contest registrations or other Adlayout forms. Whenever we transfer your personal information to a third party, we have contract clauses that provide for appropriate security to protect your privacy.

Adlayout may also use unique identifiers in emails sent to Adlayout members, event registrants, award nominees, newsletter subscribers and other customers to help Adlayout understand which emails have been opened and if so, how many times.
