INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE:

We collect information from you when you register on our site, place an order, subscribe to our newsletter, respond to a survey, fill out a form or download or use our product. When ordering or registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your: name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number or credit card information. You may, however, visit our site anonymously.

INFORMATION COLLECTED FROM EMAIL SERVICES:

mxHERO’s Mail2Cloud product does not collect and retain email content, whether the message body or any attachments. Mail2Cloud is deployed much like a network router in that the service processes information then forwards the result of that processing towards the intended destination. All email content processed by Mail2Cloud follows the client’s configuration of the product and is permanently erased after processing and retransmission. This process normally takes a few seconds per message. The only information collected from emails are the standard email headers stored by email server logs. In the case of Mail2Cloud, these headers are the email address of the sender and the email address of the recipient. This information is stored on your behalf and exclusively for your use.

COOKIES:

When you visit the Web site or use the Service, we use session “cookies” – a piece of information stored on your computer – to allow the Web site or Service to uniquely identify your browser while you are logged in and to enable mxHERO to process your online transactions. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while using the Web site other than the email address you provide. Session cookies also help us verify your identity and are required in order to use the Service. Bubo Defense uses persistent cookies, that only Bubo Defense can read and use, to identify you as a valid user of any Subscription plan and make it easier for you to log in to the Service. Analytical cookies and similar technologies are also used to allow Bubo Defense to recognize how visitors move around the Web site and the Service when they’re using it. We use this information, which does not identify end users, to analyze trends, to troubleshoot the Web site and Service, to track end users’ movements while on the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing these types of tracking technologies. This helps us improve the overall user experience. The use of cookies by our partners is not covered by our Privacy Policy Statement; we do not have access or control over these cookies.

The following sections (Clear Gifs, Analytics & Remarketing) refer only to usage of the Bubo Defense website (https://bubodefense.com) and do not refer to Bubo Defenses products and services, nor Bubo Defense’s administrative dashboards used by client’s to configure and administer their services.

CLEAR GIFS:

We also use third party advertising and tracking tools that employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), to help us better manage content on our mxhero.com website by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the movements of the visitors to our Web site. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our Visitors and Subscribers in order to optimize and enhance the Web site and Service experience. We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Log Files: As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp and clickstream data.​

Bubo Defense and Google, use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) together to inform, optimize, and serve ads based on your past visits to our website. You can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads using Google’s Ads Preferences Manager. If you wish to not have your information used for the purpose of serving you interest-based ads, you may opt-out by emailing contact@bubodefense.com and indicating the accounts or domains that you wish to opt-out. Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. You may continue to receive generic ads.
