Bonterra™, LLC takes data protection seriously. When you visit a Bonterra website (listed below) or access a Platform or API account portal, we and our service providers acting on our behalf automatically collect certain data using tracking technologies like cookies and web beacons. This Cookie Notice (the “Notice”) describes what tracking technologies we use and what we use them for.
Bonterra manages, supports, or may otherwise be responsible for the following websites and webpages:
Certain payment sites of clients that link to Privacy Policies found at each website.
The websites, sub-webpages, and other websites that link to our Privacy Policies.
Cookies are small text files containing a string of characters that we may store in your browser or elsewhere on your computer or mobile device. Cookies allow us to identify you or your device as you navigate through our publicly accessible websites or account portals.By themselves, cookies do not identify you specifically. Rather, they recognize your web browser. So, unless you identify yourself specifically to Bonterra, such as by signing into the account portal, we do not know who you are just because you visited one of our websites.You can turn off your web browser's ability to accept cookies. But, if you do that, certain parts of our websites, Platforms, or APIs may not work for you.The table below describes the specific types of first-party and third-party cookies and the purposes they perform:
We use web beacons along with cookies to gather data about use of our websites and account portals. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of data on your computer, like cookies, when you viewed a particular website tied to the web beacon, and a description of a website tied to the web beacon. For example, we may put web beacons in marketing emails that notify us when you click on a link in the email that directs you to a website or one of its pages. We use web beacons to operate and improve the website and email communications.
When you visit our websites, account portals, or use our products and services, like our APIs, we may collect your IP addresses to track and analyze information about the devices that are connecting to our systems and about where those devices are located. For example, we use IP addresses to track which regions visitors to our websites or Customers logging into our account portal come from and to detect possible fraud. We however assign a unique identification number to the IP address, and we do not retain any IP address beyond that web session.
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that you can set in most web browsers. Certain state laws require us to indicate whether we honor DNT settings in your browser. Bonterra currently supports DNT; however, there is no accepted standard on how to respond to web browsers' DNT signals and even when you have DNT enabled, we may still use information collected for analytics and measurement purposes or to otherwise provide the Bonterra Solutions but we will not load any third-party trackers. You can learn more about Do Not Track here.
