Impetus Technologies Inc. & Impetus Technologies India Pvt. Ltd. (“We”) care about your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the types of personal information we may collect, how we may use and share that information, and how we protect it. By using, accessing, or purchasing our applications, products/services, and/or websites (the “Product/Service”), you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We are not in the business of selling your personal information to advertisers or spammers.
“Personal Information” is any information, whether correct or not, and whether recorded in a material form or not, that relates to you, and which, alone or in combination with other information, could reasonably be used to identify you. However, it does not include publicly available information that is lawfully made available to the general public from federal, state, or local government records.
We may make changes to this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will indicate the recent update date at the top of the policy, and highlight any significant changes to the policy.
This Privacy Policy will apply to the use of all Products & Services that may be hosted by us, or a third-party service provider on our behalf (a “Cloud Implementation”).
If you are using our Product/Service as part of a service other than a Cloud Implementation (e.g., one that is hosted on-premises by your employer), then: (i) we are not collecting, using, or sharing any of your personal information; and (ii) the organization that makes the service available to you (or, if applicable, the third party that hosts the services on behalf of such organization) (the “Implementing Organization”) may collect, use, or share your personal information., Details of the personal information they collect may be found in their privacy policy. If you are using our Products/Service as part of an implementation of our “Product/Service” other than a Cloud Implementation, please contact the Implementing Organization to obtain information regarding what personal information they collect and how they use or share that information. In such cases, we shall not be responsible for the protection of personal information. However, we strictly advise you to please read those third-party policies and agreements.

Other users of our “Product/Service” may also provide information about you when they submit content through the use of our “Product/Service.” For example, you may be mentioned in a technical support case opened by someone else.

Cookies and similar technologies
When you use our websites, we may collect certain information by automated means, such as cookies. A "cookie" is a file that websites send to a visitor's computer or other Internet-connected devices to uniquely identify the visitor's browser, store information, or settings on the device. The information we collect in this manner enables us to serve the returning visitors better. For example, it can "remember" and auto-populate your email address in the future. We also use cookies to track responses to our marketing materials, such as emails and online advertisements. Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies or how to restrict or disable certain types of cookies. For more information about our cookies, please email inquiry@impetus.com.
Some of our websites also use marketing automation technology (Pardot) to collect data on visitor’s behavior. These Pardot cookies help us track your visits to our websites and enable us to create an engaging marketing experience for you. We also use Pardot cookies to understand your interaction with the emails we send you and to ensure we’re sending you relevant information. Specifically, Pardot cookies let us know whether our emails have been opened and which links are clicked. For more information on Pardot privacy and cookie policy, please click here.
Some of our websites may also feature cookies associated with certain unaffiliated companies. For example, we partner with other companies to connect you to certain social networks, such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. By engaging with such other companies’ sites, for instance, by clicking the Facebook "Like" button found on our website, such companies may place session or persistent cookies on your device. This may allow these third parties to collect information about your online activities over time and across websites. The use of these cookies is subject to such third-parties’ cookie policies, which we strongly recommend you review.
Web analytics and interest-based advertising
We may use web analytics services on our websites, such as those of Google Analytics. The service providers that administer these services use cookies to help us analyze how visitors use the site. The information collected through these means (including IP address) is disclosed or collected directly by these service providers, who use the information to evaluate the use of the website or for advertising purposes, as described below.
Some of our online advertising takes place through Google Display Advertising. As a part of this program, we use Google Analytics features such as Retargeting. We and the operators of these ad networks, including Google, may use third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) – and in some cases first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) – to inform, optimize, and serve ads across the internet based on a user’s past visits to our website.
You can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising or customize Google Display Network ads using the Google Ads Preferences Manager.

Do not track
Some web browsers and mobile devices incorporate a “do not track” feature which, when enabled, signals to websites and online services that you do not wish to be tracked.
