The websites  www.unikey.com, https://bqt-stg-web.unikey.comhttps://bqt-prd-web.unikey.com, https://mobile.bqtsolutions.com, https://identity.unikey.com, https://connect.bqtsolutions.com, https://bqt-prd-support.unikey.com (the "Sites") are provided by UniKey Technologies, Inc. ("UniKey", "we", "us" or "our"). Your privacy is important to UniKey. This Privacy Policy governs your use of the Sites including, without limitation, both mobile and web versions of our Sites, whether accessed via personal computers, mobile devices, or otherwise. This Privacy Policy also applies to your use of interactive features, widgets, plug-ins, applications, content, downloads and/or other services that we own and control and make available through the mobile or web versions of the Sites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to our data collection activities offline or otherwise outside of our Sites (unless otherwise stated below) and does not govern the data practices of third parties that may interact with our Sites. It is important that you read and understand the entire Privacy Policy before using the Sites. If you are unwilling to consent to our collection and use of your Personal Information as described in this Policy, and to accept the terms in the Terms of Use, you should not access or use the Sites.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

From time to time we collect, retain and utilize Personal Information about you to operate our business and to make services and other opportunities available. The term "Personal Information" means personally identifiable information that we may obtain about you, including but not limited to your name, age, gender, email address and phone number. We recognize and respect your privacy concerns about this information. We obtain Personal Information in a variety of ways (for example, when you contact us directly by email, from your use of UniKey products and services, or from other third parties). Also, when you visit the Sites, we collect information that might or might not identify you for purposes of measuring the use of the Sites and improving its content, as described below.

Information We Collect or Store as You Access and Use the Sites

In addition to any Personal Information or other information that you choose to submit to us via our Sites, we and our third-party service providers may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively store or collect certain information whenever you visit or interact with the Sites ("Usage Information"). This Usage Information may be stored or accessed using a variety of technologies that may be downloaded to your personal computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone (a "Device") whenever you visit or interact with our Sites. Usage Information may be non-identifying or may be associated with you. To the extent that we associate Usage Information with your Personal Information, we will treat it as Personal Information.

This Usage Information may include:

•        your IP address or other unique identifier ("Device Identifier"). A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device used to access the Sites, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier;

•        your Device functionality (including browser, operating system, hardware, and mobile network information);

•        the URL that referred you to our Sites;

•        the areas within our Sites that you visit and your activities there, including remembering you and your preferences; your Device location;

•        your Device characteristics; and

•        certain other Device data, including the time of day, among other information.

We may use various developed methods and technologies to store or collect Usage Information ("Tracking Technologies"). Tracking Technologies may set, change, alter or modify settings or configurations on your Device. A few of the Tracking Technologies include the following (and subsequent technology and methods later developed):

Cookies. A cookie is a data file placed on a Device when it is used to visit the Sites. Cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools that are available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some but not all instances can be blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Each browser you use will need to be set separately and different browsers offer different functionality and options in this regard. Please be aware that if you disable or remove cookies on your Device, some parts of our Sites may not function properly, and that when you revisit our Sites your ability to limit cookies is subject to your browser settings and limitations.

Web Beacons. Small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons (also known as "1x1 GIFs" or "clear GIFs") may be included in our Sites pages and messages. Web beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a page or e-mail can act as a web beacon. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, to count visitors to the Sites, to monitor how users navigate the Sites, to count how many e-mails that were sent were actually opened, or to count how many particular articles or links were actually viewed.

Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Sites, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your Device from our web server or a third party service provider, is active only while you are connected to the Site, and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.

ETag, or entity tag. An ETag is a feature of the cache in browsers. It is an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL. If the resource content at that URL ever changes, a new and different ETag is assigned. Used in this manner, ETags are a form of Device Identifier. ETag tracking may generate unique tracking values even where the consumer blocks cookies.

We may use Tracking Technologies for a variety of purposes, including:

Strictly Necessary. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that we consider are strictly necessary to allow you to use and access our Sites, including cookies required to prevent fraudulent activity, improve security, or allow you to make use of shopping cart functionality.

Performance Related. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that are useful in order to assess the performance of the Sites, including as part of our analytic practices or otherwise to improve the content, products or services offered through the Sites.

Functionality Related. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that are required to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing the Sites, including identifying you when you sign in to our Sites or keeping track of our specified preferences, including in terms of the presentation of content on our Sites.

Targeting Related. We may use Tracking Technologies to deliver content relevant to your interests on our Sites and third party sites based on how you interact with our content. This includes using Tracking Technologies to understand the usefulness to you of the content that have been delivered to you.

There may be other Tracking Technologies now and later devised and used by us in connection with the Sites. Further, third parties may use Tracking Technologies with our Sites. We may not control those Tracking Technologies and we are not responsible for them. However, you consent to potentially encountering third-party Tracking Technologies in connection with use of our Sites and accept that our statements under this Privacy Policy do not apply to the Tracking Technologies or practices of such third parties.

We may access, use, preserve, transfer and disclose your information (including Device Identifiers and Personal Information), including disclosure to third parties: (i) to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, subpoenas, governmental requests, or legal process if in our good faith opinion such is required or permitted by law; (ii) to protect and/or defend the Sites Terms of Use or other policies applicable to the Sites, including investigation of potential violations thereof; (iii) to protect the safety, rights, property or security of the Sites or any third party; and/or (iv) to detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.

For example, after you have created an account you might elect to grant permissions to third parties such as friends or relatives.
