Introduction

Tracking technologies, such as cookies, tags, pixels, fingerprinting, web beacons, and similar scripts, are used to store and/or share information about website visitors, their systems, and browsers. Information collected by cookies and other tracking technologies varies depending on each website's components and can be of a personal nature (information that directly or indirectly identifies you) and of a non-personal nature (information that does not directly or indirectly identify any single individual, such as cookies used to enable language settings on a website). Information of a personal nature may include details about the device you are using, the browser you are using, your IP address, the previous website you visited, whether you clicked on one of our ads, and/or your browsing behaviour.

Some of the cookies and tracking technologies that are used by Diligent, and our partners are strictly necessary and are there to technically enable the website and its components, as well as, to enable security measures. Strictly necessary cookies are activated without user consent because they are considered necessary for the website to function effectively and in a secure way. All cookies and other tracking technologies that are not classified as strictly necessary or functional are subject to consent from website visitors. Cookies may be served directly by Diligent (First Party Cookies) or served by third parties on our behalf (Third Party Cookies) (e.g., by advertisers and data analytics companies).

This notice (Cookie Notice) is for visitors to our websites (e.g. www.diligent.com), apps, online software-as-a-service offerings and other digital platforms (Online Services). It outlines information about the cookies (including similar tracking technologies) we use, the categories of information we collect, and the purposes for which the cookies and other tracking technologies collect information.

Analytics and Behavioural Targeting

As is true of most websites, Diligent gathers certain information automatically and stores it in log files. This information may include IP addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data. We may combine this automatically collected log information with other information we collect about you. We do this to improve services we offer you, or to improve marketing, analytics, or site functionality. We use mobile analytics software to allow us to better understand the performance of the website. This software may record information such as how often you use the website, the events that occur within the website, aggregated usage, and performance data.

We partner with third parties to either display advertising on our website or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third-party partner may use technologies such as cookies to gather information about your activities on this site and other sites to provide you advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you interest-based ads, you may opt-out by clicking (or if located in the European Union click ). Please note this does not opt you out of being served ads. You will continue to receive generic ads.
