Website visitors:
Like most website operators, HBAI collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. HBAI’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how HBAI’s visitors use its websites. From time to time, HBAI may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its websites.
HBAI also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged-in users. HBAI only discloses logged-in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Visitors to websites can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities, including use of HBAI products.
Aggregated statistics:
HBAI may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. HBAI may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, HBAI does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of certain personally-identifiable information:
HBAI discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, service providers and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on HBAI’s behalf or to provide services available at its websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors, service providers, and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using HBAI websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. HBAI will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors, service providers, and affiliated organizations, as described above, HBAI discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental or legal request, or when HBAI believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of HBAI, third parties, or the public at large. HBAI takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Keeping your personal information secure:
To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of the information, HBAI utilizes appropriate physical, technical, and administrative procedures to safeguard the information we collect and process. HBAI retains data only as required or permitted by international, national, and local laws and while it has a legitimate business purpose.
When collecting or transferring sensitive information, we use a variety of additional security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. The personal information you provide us is stored on computer systems located in controlled facilities that have limited access. When we transmit highly confidential information (such as a credit card number or password) over the Internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Cookies:
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. HBAI uses cookies to help HBAI identify and track visitors, their usage of the websites, and their website access preferences. HBAI visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using HBAI’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of the websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Business transfers:
If HBAI, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that HBAI goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party.
