Your privacy is very important to us. At GT Insights we have a few fundamental principles that we follow:
- We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
- We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
- We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of our site.
GT Insights LLC (“GT Insights”) operates several websites including gt-insights.com. It is GT Insights’ policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, GT Insights collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. GT Insights’ purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how GT Insights’ visitors use its website. From time to time, GT Insights may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
GT Insights also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. GT Insights only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to GT Insights’ websites choose to interact with GT Insights in ways that require GT Insights to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that GT Insights gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive GT Insights updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, GT Insights collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with GT Insights. GT Insights does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
GT Insights may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, GT Insights may monitor the most popular pages on the GT Insights.com site or use spam screened by the reCAPTCHA service to help identify spam. GT Insights may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, GT Insights does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
GT Insights discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on GT Insights’ behalf or to provide services available at GT Insights’ websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using GT Insights’ websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. GT Insights will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, GT Insights discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when GT Insights believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of GT Insights, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an GT Insights website and have supplied your email address, GT Insights may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with GT Insights and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. GT Insights takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Cookies
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. GT Insights uses cookies to help GT Insights identify and track visitors, their usage of GT Insights website, and their website access preferences. GT Insights visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using GT Insights’ websites, with the drawback that certain features of GT Insights’ websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Business Transfers
If GT Insights, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that GT Insights goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of GT Insights may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
Ads
Ads appearing on any of our websites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by GT Insights and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

We request information from you on our order form. To buy or register for services from us, you must provide contact information (like name, company and email address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes, and to fill your orders and provide services. If we have trouble processing an order, we’ll use this information to contact you.
Comments
Comments and other content submitted to reCAPTCHA anti-spam service are saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.
