This Privacy Policy applies to our collection, usage, and disclosure of information that we collect through our website and our customer (“Client”) subscriptions to ConstructivIQ analytical applications. The use of information collected through our Products is limited to the purpose of providing the service procured by the Client.

Personal Information Disclosure
Personal Information Collected for Application Usage
ConstructivIQ Products require user credentials to log into the front-end web application. These user credentials may represent Personal Information such as an individual’s name, email address, and company name. This information is used exclusively for authenticating access to the ConstructivIQ application.
Our application integrates data from Client-owned application sources. These Client application sources may contain Personal Information such as (but not limited to) name, email address, phone number, company name, etc. This Personal Information is originally collected by our Clients through their applications, and this information is owned by our Clients. ConstructivIQ only accesses and processes this information for the purposes of providing services to the Client.
All information, including Personal Information, owned by the Client and stored with ConstructivIQ is considered confidential. ConstructivIQ does not share this information with any third party or unauthorized users without written instructions from the Client.
Personal Information Collected Online
ConstructivIQ collects Personal Information from you when you visit our website, when you send us information or communications, and/or when you use our Products. “Personal Information” refers to personally identifiable information, including, for example, your name, address, email address, phone number, and company name. If you register through a ConstructivIQ Site to receive more information about our Products and services, you may be asked to provide certain Personal Information. When you provide Personal Information to register with ConstructivIQ, such Personal Information will be used to provide you with the requested information about our Products and services.
We may also use the Personal Information to help us understand who is interested in or using our Products and services, to communicate with you regarding your account, and to help us manage and improve the ConstructivIQ Site and our Products and services. ConstructivIQ may also use Personal Information for marketing purposes. For example, ConstructivIQ may use information you provide to contact you to further discuss your interest in our Products or services and to send you information regarding ConstructivIQ and its partners, such as information about promotions or events. You may opt out of receiving communications from us as provided in the “Choice/Opt-out” section of this Privacy Policy.
Personal Information Collected Anonymously
In addition, we sometimes collect anonymous information from visits to a ConstructivIQ Site to help us provide better customer service and to make a ConstructivIQ Site as user friendly as possible. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people visit and we also measure visitor activity on a ConstructivIQ Site to analyze trends and statistics. However, when we collect the information described in this paragraph, we do so in ways that keep the information anonymous. We may make the information we collect public, provided that the information does not identify you or reveal your information that we have agreed to treat as confidential.
“Cookies” are small text files that are stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on all ConstructivIQ Sites. We do not add the information we store in cookies to any Personal Information you submit while on a ConstructivIQ Site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate a ConstructivIQ Site. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period. ConstructivIQ uses persistent cookies to store a unique cryptographic hash value so you don’t have to enter your username more than once on a given computer. The information stored does not contain any Personal Information. Our Products may also use cookies to remember users’ settings and for authentication purposes. Users can control use of cookies through their individual browser settings. Please note that if cookie preferences are changed by a user, certain features of ConstructivIQ analytical applications may be limited in capability or not work at all.
Third-Party Cookies: A ConstructivIQ Site may use cookies that permit select third-party partners to serve you ConstructivIQ-related content on their sites or elsewhere on the Internet. This is based on your prior visits to a ConstructivIQ Site. The use of cookies by third parties is not covered by our privacy statement. We do not have access to or control over these cookies.
Collection of IP Addresses
When you visit a ConstructivIQ Site or access a ConstructivIQ Product, ConstructivIQ may collect your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address to track and aggregate non-personal information. For example, ConstructivIQ uses IP addresses to monitor the regions from which customers and visitors navigate to a ConstructivIQ Site. IP addresses may also be used for security purposes.
Links to Other Websites
ConstructivIQ Products and/or Sites may contain links to external websites. ConstructivIQ is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. Links from a ConstructivIQ Site do not imply that ConstructivIQ endorses or has reviewed the third-party websites. We suggest contacting the operators of those websites directly for information regarding their privacy policies.
Web Beacons/Usage Analytics
ConstructivIQ or our third-party advertising partners may employ web beacons and usage analytics software that help us better manage content on a ConstructivIQ Site by informing us what content is effective. Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages. We do not tie the information gathered by web beacons to our customers’ Personal Information.
