  • Usage Data. We collect information about how Users use the Site (called “Usage Data”), for example, by tracking the number of unique views received by the pages of the Site, or the domains and Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses from which Users originate. While not all usage data that CDx collects from Users is personally identifiable, it may be associated with personal information that Users provide CDx through the Site or otherwise, and in those cases we will treat such information as personal information. Additionally, certain information regarding your computer systems, network locations, IP address and software may be communicated to CDx by the digital rights management systems associated with certain content that you download or access via the Site in order to prevent unauthorized use or distribution of the associated content.

  • Cookie Data. Like most websites, our Site uses cookies and web log files to track Site usage. A cookie is a tiny data file that resides on your computer that allows CDx to recognize you as a User when you return to the Site using the same computer and web browser. Like the information you enter during account registration, cookie and log file data is used to customize your experience on the Site. One type of cookie, known as a “persistent” cookie, is set once you have visited the Site. The next time you visit our Site, the persistent cookie will allow us to recognize you as a previous User. Another type of cookie, called a “session” cookie, is used to identify a particular visit to the Site. Session cookies expire after a short time or when you close your web browser. You can choose to disable cookies on your browser or allow your browser to notify you when a cookie is being sent, however this may prevent you from utilizing certain features of the Site.
  • IP Addresses. Due to the communications standards on the Internet, we automatically receive the uniform resource locator (URL) of the website from which you came and the website to which you proceed once you leave the Site. We also receive the IP address of your computer (or the proxy server you use to access the World Wide Web), your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, as well as the name of your Internet service provider (ISP). This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve the Site. The linkage between your IP address and your personal information is shared in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
  • Data from Log Files. We use log files in connection with our Site. Log files track IP addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks. We utilize this information to analyze trends, administer the Site, prevent fraud, track Site navigation in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
  • Google Analytics Data. We use a tool called “Google Analytics” to collect information about use of the Site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often Users visit this Site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to any of the Site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics to improve the Site and related services. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personal information. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this Site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use (available at https://www.google.com/analytics/tos.html) and the Google Privacy Policy (available at https://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html). You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to any website by disabling cookies on your browser. You can also download a Google Analytics opt-out add-on to your browser.
