We provide certain services to commercial users of Our Website (each, a âClientâ and collectively, âClientsâ), who, in turn, own and operate their own websites or mobile applications (âClient Site(s)â), and who wish to utilize our code, software and services and reports (the âAnalysis Service(s)â) to analyze and obtain information regarding how third party visitors to their Client Sites (âClient Site Visitor(s)â) are interacting with their Client Sites (âVisitor Informationâ).

I. Information obtained when you visit Subscribers or our clientsâ sites
Subscribers Collection and Use of Visitor Information
Subscribers Clients use the Analysis Service to obtain information regarding how Client Site Visitors to their Client Sites are interacting with such Client Sites (âVisitor Informationâ). This Analysis Service allows a Subscribers Client to evaluate and potentially modify its Client Site based on its findings regarding Client Site Visitors use and interaction with the Client Site. Please note that Subscribers itself uses the Subscribers Service to obtain insights into visitorsâ activities on https://subscribers.com.
How Subscribers Collects Visitor Information
Subscribers Clients use customized and proprietary software code provided by Subscribers to collect and transmit Visitor Information to Subscribersâs servers. When a Client Site Visitor visits a Client Site that uses Subscribersâs Analysis Service, this code contacts Subscribersâs servers and enables Subscribers to collect and analyze the Client Site Visitorâs activity while visiting the Clientâs Site. This information is then stored on web servers and databases utilized by Subscribers to perform analyses and produce reports for the Subscribers Client. The interactions that may be recorded or analyzed (âRecorded Interactionsâ) may include mouse scrolls and clicks by a Client Site Visitor; keystrokes entered by a Client Site Visitor; and/or pages viewed or visited by a Client Site Visitor, including the duration of such visits. Recorded Interactions may also include images of the Client Site that are recorded during the Client Site Visitorâs interactions with such Client Site, such as, by way of example, images of forms displayed or populated by the Client Site Visitor on the Client Site, or other multimedia content that may be posted by Client Site Visitors.
Subscribers may also collect certain information about a Client Visitorâs computer or mobile device that may be furnished by the Client Visitorâs browser or otherwise by the device (âDevice Informationâ), such as:
- Browser Information
- Operating System Information
- Mobile Device Information (e.g., device identifier, mobile operating system, etc.)
- IP Address
- Page Accessed
- Geographic Location
- Time of Visit
- Referring Site, Application, or Service
Subscribersâs Analysis Service is not designed to knowingly collect or extract from Visitor Information (including any Recorded Interactions or Device Information) information that could be used to personally identify Client Site Visitors, such as a Client Site Visitorâs name, address or phone number (âPersonally Identifiable Informationâ) when a Client Site Visitor visits a Client Site that uses the Subscribers Analysis Service. In particular, Subscribers does not attempt to identify, decipher, or associate Personally Identifying Information regarding a Client Site Visitor from any Recorded Interactions or Device Information. All information not constituting Personally Identifiable Information that Subscribers collects is pseudonymous information within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulations.
Subscribers Does Not Collect Visitor Information Across Multiple Sites
Subscribers does not collect or aggregate information about visitor behavior on multiple, different websites, except insofar as multiple or updated versions of Our own Website may constitute multiple different websites.
Subscribers May Collect Information Contained in the âReferring URLâ For The Last Website Visited
If a Client Visitor navigates to a Client Site from another website, Subscribers may receive certain information from the referring website (i.e., the last website the visitor visited before visiting the clientâs website) as part of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (âHTTPâ) request. For example, if a Client Site Visitor navigates to a Client Site from a search engine, such as Google, Subscribers may receive information contained in the referring URL for the Google search query, such as the terms the Client Visitor was searching for before visiting the respective Client Site. Subscribers may use information contained in the referring URL to analyze and provide information to its Clients about the activities that led users to navigate to the applicable Client Site.
Subscribersâs Disclosure of Visitor Information
Except as disclosed in Section II below, Subscribers never sells or shares any Visitor Information with individuals or companies other than the specific Client from whose Client Site Subscribers collected the Visitor Information.
This Visitor Information is provided to Clients in the form of aggregated reports and/or statistics that identify the collective behavior of Client Visitors to the Clientâs Site. Clients will also have access to Recorded Interactions through the Analysis Service.
Client Information
When individuals or companies register as Clients to use the Subscribers Analysis Service, register to use a trial version of the Subscribers Analysis Service, or request additional information about Subscribers, Subscribers may require Personally Identifiable Information, such as name, e-mail mailing address, phone number, financial information (e.g., credit card number, billing address), and/or website to be tracked, to process the registration or request (âClient Informationâ). When a client registers for the Subscribers Analysis Service, some of these pieces of information may be temporarily stored in encrypted format in a session cookie (but are not stored or linked to a permanent cookie). Subscribers may use this information to process and fulfill your request, register your account, check your qualifications for registration and/or to bill you for products and services. Subscribers may also use Personally Identifiable Information you submit to us to provide Subscribersâs products and services, personalize and tailor your experience on Subscribers, operate our business, understand how Clients are engaging with Subscribers, request additional information necessary to process or fulfill your order; determine if you are satisfied with the Subscribers Analysis Service; inform you that an upgrade is available; or to contact you with information about Subscribers, including information about new or existing products and services or special offers.
