Information We Collect Automatically
- Identifiers and usage. When you use the Service we and third parties may automatically collect your IP address or other device address or ID, web browser information, the web pages or sites that you visit just before or just after you use the Service, the pages or other content you view or otherwise interact with on the Service, and the dates and times that you visit, access, or use the Service, advertising identifiers and potentially non-personal information about your device including model, version and operating system. We may also collect information regarding your interaction with email messages, such as whether you opened, clicked on, or forwarded a message.
- Training information. If you participate in our training program, we collect information regarding your activities in the program including the courses you take, your progress, and related usage metrics.
- Location information. When you use the Service, we obtain information about your approximate physical location, such as when you enable geolocation features in your device, or by inference from other information we collect (for example, your IP address indicates the general geographic region from which you are connecting to the Internet).
- Cookie information. When you use the Service, we and third parties may send one or more cookies to automatically collect information about your visit to and use of the Service (see below under: "How We Use Cookies and Similar Technologies" for more information). The information they collect may include Personal Information, such as your IP address, advertising identifiers, non-personal information about your device including model, version and operating system, the web pages that you visit just before or just after you use our website, as well as information about your interactions with our website, such the time of your visit and where you have clicked.
Information We Collect from Other Sources
- Information from third parties. We obtain Personal Information from third parties, such as Facebook, when you click on third party buttons or beacons (such as Facebook "like" or "share" buttons) on our Site. Information collected through third-party web beacons and buttons is collected directly by these third parties, not by Impinj. Information collected by a third party in this manner is subject to that third party's own data collection, use, and disclosure policies. Please see "Third-Party Services" below for more information.
We also collect, create, use, and share deidentified and/or aggregated data (such as statistical or demographic data) derived from your Personal Information or use of the Service ("Aggregated Data") for our business purposes. Aggregated Data is not Personal Information as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may deidentify and/or aggregate data about your use of our Service to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Information so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we will treat the combined data as Personal Information and process it in accordance with this Policy.
