We use cookies, pixels, and other similar technologies (collectively, “cookies”) to recognize your browser or device, learn more about your interests, provide you with essential features and services, and for additional purposes, including:

  • Recognizing you when you sign in use our offerings. This allows us to provide you with recommendations, display personalized content, and provide other customized features and services.
  • Keeping track of your specific preferences. This allows us to honour your likes and dislikes, such as your language and configuration preferences.
  • Conducting research and diagnostics to improve our offerings.
  • Preventing fraudulent activity.
  • Improving security.
  • Delivering content, including ads, relevant to your interests on TrustOnCloud sites and third-party sites (see the Interest-Based Ads notice for how we use cookies in serving interest-based ads).
  • Reporting.

This allows us to measure and analyze the performance of our offerings. TrustOnCloud cookies allow you to take advantage of some of essential TrustOnCloud features. For instance, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you might not be able to use certain offerings that require you to sign in, or you might have to manually adjust some preferences or language settings every time you visit TrustOnCloud sites.

Approved third parties may also set cookies when you interact with our offerings. Third parties include search engines, providers of measurement and analytics services, social media networks, and advertising companies. Third parties use cookies in the process of delivering content, including ads relevant to your interests, to measure the effectiveness of their ads, and to perform services on behalf of TrustOnCloud.

You can manage browser cookies through your browser settings. The ‘Help’ feature on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, how to disable cookies, and when cookies will expire. If you disable all cookies on your browser, neither we nor third parties will transfer cookies to your browser. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit a site and some features and services may not work.

How We Share Personal Information

Information about our customers is an important part of our business and we are not in the business of selling our customers’ personal information to others. We share personal information only as described below and with TrustOnCloud that are either subject to this Privacy Policy or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Policy.

  • Transactions Involving Third Parties: We make available to you services, software, and content provided by third parties for use on or through TrustOnCloud Offerings. You can tell when a third party is involved in your transactions, and we share information related to those transactions with that third party.
  • Third-Party Service Providers: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include: delivering TrustOnCloud hardware, sending communications, processing payments, assessing credit and compliance risks, analyzing data, providing marketing and sales assistance (including advertising and event management), conducting customer relationship management, and providing training. These third-party service providers have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes. Further, they must process that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and as permitted by applicable data protection law.
  • Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses or services. In such transactions, personal information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy (unless, of course, the individual consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that TrustOnCloud or substantially all of its assets are acquired, your information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
  • Protection of Us and Others: We release Account Information and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce or apply our terms and other agreements, or protect the rights, property, or security of TrustOnCloud, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud prevention and detection and credit risk reduction.
