Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Tools

We use three main types of “identifiers” on our website and in our services: cookies, web beacons, and scripts.

  • Cookies are text files placed on your device when you visit our webpages or view messages from us. Some cookies are “session cookies” that expire at the end of your browser session, while others are “persistent cookies” that allow us to remember your preferences and settings over multiple visits and across other websites.
  • Web Beacons are image files placed in our web pages and emails.
  • Scripts are small pieces of computer code that power customer service tools, deliver video, and provide interactive experiences. We also use scripts for measuring service use.

We manage some identifiers directly. Other identifiers are managed by third parties. For example, we use Google Analytics to monitor site performance and visitor engagement.

We use identifiers to provide customized services, measure website performance, provide customer support, and deliver personalized advertising. Examples of how we use identifiers include, but are not limited to:

  • Setting your service preferences
  • Managing your shopping cart
  • Guarding against fraud
  • Delivering relevant advertisements
  • Measuring website use
  • Conducting research to improve our services

Identifier Management

You can manage identifier settings by using ‘Manage your cookies’ above in this notice. Customers can manage their identifier settings for our website and our services through their customer account. We use optional and mandatory cookies and other identifiers.

Optional cookies and other identifiers are used for support, website performance, and advertising. We seek your consent before using optional cookies and identifiers.

Mandatory cookies and other identifiers are used for account verification, service continuity, security, and other functions necessary to provide our website and services. Your consent is not required for use of mandatory cookies.

In addition to our ‘Manage your cookies’ options, many web browsers allow users to block cookies (directly or through plugins and extensions). Some cookies, however, are essential for our website and services to function. If you set your browser to block all cookies, you may not be able to use our services.

"Do Not Track" and other Preference Signals

Some web browsers provide a “Do Not Track” feature. There are no generally accepted standards for this feature and we do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals. We also do not recognize any universal opt-out mechanism, such as the Global Privacy Control, which is still under development.

Marketing and Advertising Preferences

You can manage your marketing and advertising preferences, including whether you wish to receive customized marketing and advertising:

Storage

We store personal data on our own systems and with trusted service providers, including Amazon Web Services.

International Transfers

We transfer personal data internationally to operate our business and provide services. We comply with applicable law when making international transfers.

Length of Retention

We retain personal data for our business needs and to comply with law. If we no longer need personal data, we may either delete it or de-identify it so that it no longer identifies a specific person. Factors we consider when deciding when to delete or de-identify your personal data include: (1) if you still have an account, (2) if we are required to retain personal data to comply with law, or (3) if the personal data is needed for tax other business purposes.

Security

We use risk-based measures to protect personal data, including appropriate security controls and employee training. We also require that our service providers, business partners, and advertisers use appropriate risk-based controls to protect personal data.

No Collection of PII about Children

We do not knowingly collect personal data about anyone under 18 without permission from their legal guardian. Please contact us at privacy@tsohost.com if you believe we have collected information from a child without permission from their legal guardian.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data with your consent, to fulfill our contract with you, based on our legitimate interest, or other lawful bases. The specific basis of processing depends on the services you are using, the data being processed, the place where the processing occurs, and the place where you live. If you have questions about our basis for processing your personal data, please contact us at privacy@tsohost.com.

International Data Transfers

Personal data you provide may be transferred from your country to the United States or to another country where we do business. We make these transfers when necessary to provide our services, to perform our contract with you, or when we have your consent to transfer your personal data to another country.

We transfer personal data outside the UK, the EU/EEA, and Switzerland to countries that have been determined to offer an adequate level of data protection.

For transfers from the UK to countries that have not been deemed to offer an adequate level of data protection, we transfer personal data pursuant to a data protection addendum consistent with the requirements of the UK International Data Transfer Agreement issued by the UK Information Commissioner, Version B1.0.

For transfers from the EU/EEA and Switzerland to countries that have not been deemed to offer an adequate level of data protection, we transfer personal data pursuant to a data protection addendum with standard contractual clauses and appropriate supplementary measures including, appropriate technical and organizational measures.

For transfers to the United States, certain of our subprocessors (including affiliated companies) have certified their compliance with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“EU-U.S. DPF”), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF (“UK-U.S. Data Bridge”), and/or the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“Swiss-U.S. DPF”) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.
