**INFORMATION WE COLLECT**
**1. Personal Information:** Personal information identifies you or another person as an individual and includes such items as your name, address, phone number, and email address. We collect personal information through your use and interaction with our Services, such as when you transmit communications through the Software, Sites, or Third-Party Software, when you register for an account with us, when you post messages and content through the Software, Sites, or Third-Party Software, when you send us an email or other communication, or when you transmit to us personal information through the Dace IT Cloud, through an Activated Machine, or through other means. Also, personal information may be collected automatically through the Software, Third-Party Software, and directly from an Activated Machine to the Dace IT Cloud. Please be aware that certain Software installed on your Device may access other files on your Device, such as your contacts, photographs, audio and video clips, and your contact information. If you activate your machine through Third-Party Software, personal information may be transmitted to us by such Third-Party Software in addition to, or instead of, directly through your Activated Machine. Please be aware that the collection, use, disclosure, retention, and other practices of any third party who collects your information are subject to the privacy policy of such third party, which we do not control. If you are a customer of Dace IT (such as a manufacturer of machines that are enabled to be activated on the Dace IT Cloud), we collect personal information (about you and your end users) that you transmit to us through Third-Party Software, Activated Machines, data feeds, or other methods agreed by you and Dace IT.
**2. Non-Personal Information:** Non-personal information does not personally identify you or another person as an individual and includes such items as aggregated information, demographic information, and any other information that does not reveal your or another individual’s specific identity. We and our third-party service providers may collect non-personal information from you, your Activated Machine, the Software, Third-Party Software, and other means. Non-personal information includes the following: (a) the unique device ID number of your Device (“UDID”), the MAC address of your Activated Machine, and the IP address of your Device; (b) the wireless connection information of your Activated Machine; (c) OS type and version, browser type and version, push notice identifier, and mobile network information of your Device; (d) traffic data, location data, logs, communication data, and data about the resources you use through the Software, Sites, or Third-Party Software; (e) real-time location information about your Device and Activated Machine; (f) usage, performance, and diagnostic information about your Activated Machine; (g) information that has been aggregated in a manner such that it does not personally identify you or any other individual; and (h) metadata and other information associated with other files stored on your Device, such as photographs, audio and video clips, personal contacts, and address book information.
**3. Cookies and Other Technologies:** When you visit the Sites, we may send one or more “cookies,” which are small data files, to your Device to uniquely identify your browser and let us help you log in faster and enhance your navigation through the Sites. If you use Third-Party Software, the provider thereof may send one or more cookies to your Device. Cookies help us measure, for example, the total number of visitors to our Sites, the number of visitors to each page of our Sites, how our users use and interact with the Services, and the domain names of our visitors’ Internet service providers. You can reset your web browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. If you do not want cookies to be installed on your Device, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to decline the use of cookies. Please be aware that some features of the Sites and Services will not function properly if the ability of your Device to accept cookies is disabled.
**4. Other:** We may also use clear GIFs or web beacons to track usage patterns of users of the Services. Additionally, we may use clear GIFs in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened by recipients. The information is used to enable more accurate reporting and make the Services better for our users.
**5. IP Address and UDID:** Your IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device by your Internet service provider, your UDID (or similar ID) is the unique identification number associated with your Device, and your MAC address is the unique number assigned to your machine. Your IP address, UDID, and/or MAC address are identified and logged automatically in our server log files whenever you visit the Sites, use the Software or Third-Party Software to connect to the Dace IT Cloud, or when your Activated Machine communicates with the Dace IT Cloud, along with the time(s) of such visit(s), the page(s) on the Sites that were visited, the features within the Software and Dace IT Cloud that were accessed and used. Collecting IP Addresses is standard practice on the Internet and is done automatically by many websites. Please note that we treat IP addresses, UDIDs, MAC addresses, server log files, and related information as non-personal information, except where we are required to do otherwise under applicable law.
**6. Tracking:** We honor do-not-track signals or similar technologies that our systems detect and identify. We do not track, plant cookies, or use advertising when such do-not-track (DNT) browser mechanisms are in place on your Device.
