This Cookie Statement explains how Tanium Inc. and its group companies (collectively “Tanium”, “we”, “us”, and “ours”) use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our websites such as www.tanium.com and www.tanium.jp or wherever this Cookie Statement is referenced (“Website”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
What are cookies and why do we use cookies?
Tanium collects various types of information from you to better meet your needs and to provide you with a more relevant user experience. Some of this information is collected automatically through cookies or other internet tracking technologies. Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information. Cookies created by the website owner (in this case, Tanium) are called “first-party cookies”. Cookies created by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies”. Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website e.g., advertising, interactive content and analytics. The parties that create these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when you visit the website in question and also when you visit certain other websites.
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for performance, analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.
Cookie List
A cookie is a small piece of data, a text file, that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those are first-party cookies. We also use third-party cookies for our advertising and marketing efforts. A list of all first-party cookies and third-party cookies on our Website is located here.
We use cookies and other tracking technologies for the following purposes:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser alert you about these cookies or to block them, but some parts of the site will not work if such cookies are blocked. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
- Sale of Personal Data
Some cookies collect your personal information for analytics and to personalize your experience with targeted ads. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, you have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information to third parties. You may exercise your right to opt out of the sale of personal information by adjust your cookie preferences here: Cookie Settings. If you opt out of these cookies we will not be able to offer you personalised ads and will not hand over your personal information to any third parties. Additionally, you may contact our legal department at [email protected] for further clarification about your rights.
If you have enabled privacy controls on your browser (such as with a plugin), we have to take that as a valid request to opt-out. Therefore, we would not be able to track your activity through the web. This may affect our ability to personalize ads according to your preferences.
- Social Media Cookies
These cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to our Website to enable you to share our content with your friends and networks. They are capable of tracking your browser across other sites and building up a profile of your interests. This may impact the content and messages you see on other websites you visit. If you do not allow these cookies you may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.
- Targeting Cookies
These cookies may be set through our Website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but will uniquely identify your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
- Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Website. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Website. All the information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
Use of Other Tracking Technologies
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Website. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our Website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our Website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
How can I control cookies?
You may adjust your cookie preferences here: Cookie Settings. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether to accept them and how to remove them. You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser. Blocking cookies may result in a lower quality experience for you while you are visiting the Website.
