5. Automatic Data Collection Tools
How R5 uses Automatic Data Collection Tools. R5 web sites use cookies, web beacons also known as tracking pixels and other similar technologies (collectively, Automatic Data Collection Tools), to remember log-in details, collect statistics to optimize site functionality, improve your user experience and deliver content tailored to your interests.
R5 also allows third-party advertising companies to use cookies on our web sites in order to optimize our advertisements and marketing and to serve advertisements specific to your interests on other websites. R5 may use retargeting and behavioural advertising technologies, a set of practices collectively referred to as “Interest Based Advertising” to tailor those advertisements to your perceived interests.
Cookies may also be used when you share information using a social media sharing button on our websites. The social network will record that you have done this and may use this information to send you targeted advertisements. The types of cookies used by these companies and how they use the information is governed by their privacy policies.
When you enter your contact details on a web form on an raven5.com site, in order to subscribe to a service, download a white paper or request information about R5’s products and service, your contact details may be stored in a cookie on your device. This information is then accessed on subsequent visits to raven5.com sites, allowing us to track and record the sites you have visited and the links you have clicked, in order to better personalize your on-line experience, and future R5 communications.
If you choose to receive marketing emails or newsletters from R5, we may track whether you’ve opened those messages and whether you’ve clicked on links contained within those messages, through the use of web beacons and personalized URLs embedded in these communications. This allows R5 to better personalize future communications and limit these communications to subjects that are of interest to you.
Choices Regarding Automatic Data Collection & Online Tracking. While R5 web sites at this time do not recognize automated browser signals regarding tracking mechanisms, such as “do not track” instructions, you can generally express your privacy preferences regarding the use of most cookies and similar technologies through your web browser. You can set your browser in most instances to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it or not. You can also generally set your browser to turn off cookies. If you are accessing our web sites in countries of the European Union (EU), or countries where the EU regulations apply, you are given the choice to accept or refuse our use of non-essential cookies (as described in the section titled ‘R5’s use of Other Automatic Data Collection Tools’ above) through a ‘cookie preference’ banner that appears on our web pages.
Since cookies allow you to take advantage of some of our web sites’ features, we recommend that you leave them turned on. If you block, turn off or otherwise reject our cookies, some web pages may not display properly or you will not be able, for instance, to add items to your shopping cart, proceed to checkout, or use any web site services that require you to sign in.
Some of our websites use Google Analytics cookies. Information collected by Google Analytics cookies will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States of America in accordance with its privacy practices.

Access to your information is restricted to R5 employees or authorized third parties who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict confidentiality obligations.
