This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes what information Edgio and its subsidiaries collects, why we collect it, how we use it, the circumstances under which we disclose it, and how we store and protect it. This Policy also discusses how to contact us with any questions or comments concerning your personal data and the choices that we offer, including how to access and update your personal data. It also describes how we may change this Policy from time to time and provides other important details about privacy- and security-related information.

1.   The Information We Collect

Edgio’s services are used by businesses seeking to deliver faster websites, more responsive applications, the highest quality video, and consistent game and software downloads to their customers’ devices. We collect information primarily to provide our services. Some of the information that we collect includes the following:

Contact and registration information: this typically includes information that allows us to communicate with you, such as your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address. If you are using our services, you may provide us additional information necessary for access to our customer portal, such as a user name and password to the portal.

Billing information: if we provide services to you, in addition to contact information, we also collect information related to your payments for those services, such as your payment and service history.

Network and traffic utilization information: we collect traffic logs to manage our global network and measure its performance, to investigate, respond to, and resolve service tickets, to analyze data in the aggregate to determine the trends, usage, and usage location of our services, as well as to administer our services generally. Traffic logs include IP addresses, which can identify a specific computer or network device on the Internet, and could, in combination with other data held by third parties, be used to identify individuals. However, Edgio does not identify individuals based on IP address, as identification is not necessary for the provision of our services.

2.   How the Information About You Is Collected

We collect information about you in the following ways:

  • Information that you directly provide:

You may provide personal information (such as your name, business email address, postal mailing address, business / mobile telephone number) to us in order to use the features and functionality of our services or our website, to request service information, to provide a satisfied customer testimonial or endorsement, to respond to a survey, to participate in case studies, to enter into contests or sweepstakes, or to use Edgio services generally.

You may also provide to us demographic information, information related to your business website such as the name, description and primary language of the site, company name, telephone number, email address, mailing address, and contacts within your company.

Our website offers a number of features where you may register for or participate in product and industry conversations and blogs, complete forms for creating a service account, request customer service support, or request a trial. For each of these, you may provide information to us. We collect information about our prospective customers who attend trade shows with us, as well as from individuals who request our digital marketing materials (e.g., white paper downloads) from third parties authorized to distribute such materials on our behalf.

We provide an area for people looking for a job at Edgio. In applying for a job or asking for information about a job, we, or third parties on our behalf, may require personally identifiable information from you such as your name, address, or email address.

  • Information that we collect from you indirectly or passively when you interact with us:

Log Files: When you visit a website, web servers automatically log your interaction with the site in something called a log file. Standard log files like ours contain basic information, such as the URL of the web page you are visiting, your browser type, your ISP, what date and time you requested digital content, and your IP address. The IP address, via geographic lookup, indicates the location of your computer on the Internet. When you consume digital content from our business customers using our network, your interaction with their content is captured in log files in our servers utilized to deliver that content to you. However, Edgio does not, nor can it on its own, link such IP addresses to an individual.

“Cookies and Other Technologies” Information: When you access our website or use our services, we may send one or more cookies – small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters – to your computer. Our cookies may be linked to personally identifiable information. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to help optimize your experience or to protect video content. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Site(s). You can use your web browser “Help” feature located in the menu in the upper right corner of your browser to modify your cookie settings. You can also decline to accept cookies when you visit our website.

Our web pages contain electronic image requests (called a “single–pixel gif” or “web beacon” request) that allow us to count page views and to access cookies. Any electronic image viewed as part of a web page, including an ad banner, can act as a web beacon. Web beacons are typically 1–by–1 pixel files, but their presence can usually be seen within a browser by clicking on “View” and then on “Source.” We also include web beacons in HTML–formatted newsletters that we send to opt–in subscribers in order to count how many newsletters have been read. Our web beacons do not collect, gather, monitor, or share any personally identifiable information about our website visitors. They are just the technique we use to compile anonymous information about website usage.

Some of our business partners (e.g. analytics providers) use cookies and web beacons on our websites and for our services (collectively referred to as “tracking technologies”). We have no access to or control over these tracking technologies. This Policy covers the use of cookies by us only and does not cover the use of cookies by any third parties.

“Flash Cookies” Defined: Flash cookies are similar to the cookies described above, and are created when you use your flash-based video player. Flash cookies are stored in your video player’s cache memory. Flash cookies may or may not be removed the same way that cookies are removed. Please review your video player’s “Help,” “Tools” and or “Options” files to learn more about the proper way to modify your Flash cookie settings. Our Flash cookies may be linked to personal information. Some of our business partners (e.g. advertisers) use Flash cookies and other tracking technologies on our site. We have no access to or control over these Flash cookies and other tracking technologies. This Policy covers the use of Flash cookies by us only, and does not cover the use of Flash cookies by any third parties.

More information about Flash cookies is available on the Adobe website.

Other “Automatically Collected” Information: When you open one of our HTML emails or utilize our Command Line Interface tools, we may automatically record certain information from your system by using different types of tracking technology. This “automatically collected” information may include your IP address, a unique user ID, operating system, version of software installed, system type, screen resolutions, color capabilities, plug-ins, language settings, cookie preferences, search engine keywords, JavaScript enablement, the content and pages that you access on our website or through our services, and the dates and times that you visit, paths taken, time spent on sites and pages, and the commands that you actually run on the Command Line Interface, and the type of website or project that you are using the Command Line Interface tool for.

3.   How We Use the Information We Collect

We use the information that we collect to generally provide, maintain, enhance, and protect all of our services and features, to allow us to charge and invoice our customers, and to enforce our terms of service. We also use the information that we collect in the following ways:

  1. We use information collected from our log files to help manage our global network and measure its performance, to investigate, respond to, and resolve service tickets, to analyze aggregated data to understand the usage trends of our services and our customers’ preferences, to prevent abusive activities, as well as to administer and improve our services generally. Edgio does not, nor can it on its own, link such IP addresses to an individual.
  2. We use your business email address for administrative communications such as notifying you of major service or website updates, in response to customer service tickets, to address copyright infringement, defamation, or authorized use-related issues, to communicate with you when you wish to learn more about us, our products, or our services, or to contact you regarding any content that you have posted to or downloaded from our website. We may retain a record of your communication to help solve any similar customer service tickets in the future.
  3. We use customer information in compliance with our contractual obligations and only as necessary to provide our services.
  4. We may use customer-provided information to display personal testimonials of satisfied customers on our website or other media, as well as to create new features and functionality for our services.
  5. We may use “Automatically Collected” information and “Cookies and Other Technologies” information (described in Section 2 above) to (a) automatically update our application on your system, (b) remember your information so that you will not have to re–enter it during your visit or the next time you access our website or to use our services,(c) monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as total number of visitors and pages accessed, and (d) track your entries, submissions, and status in any promotions or other activities.
  6. Our advertising partners help us to display and manage advertising and marketing materials (e.g., white papers and case studies) on other websites, and our analytics partners help us in understanding how you interact with our website and our services. To do this, they may collect non-personally identifiable information about your activities on ours and other websites. If you do not wish to have this information used for displaying ads that may be relevant to your interests, you may opt-out.
  7. We may supplement information provided or collected with information from other sources, including marketing databases. For example, we may combine information collected by us with information obtained from conferences that we attend with you. This enables us to, among other things, enhance our records and create more tailored advertising.
  8. We use information submitted to us as part of applications for employment or for partner candidates to evaluate your qualifications for the positions sought. Once employed, we use this information to enable employment relationship activities with our existing, potential, or former employees, such as processing payroll and various employment benefit programs.
  9. If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our site, we will ask you for your friend’s name and email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site. Your friend may contact us to request that we remove this information from our database.
  10. We use information to track user–generated content and users to the extent necessary to comply as a service provider with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and other regulations.

We collect information in many countries around the world. We may process your personal information on servers located outside of the country that you reside.

We will retain the information you provide us and the data we process on behalf of our customers for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services, please contact us. We will retain and use the information we receive from you and or your end users as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

4.   When We Share or Disclose Information

We do not, and will not, disclose, release, publish, disseminate, rent, or sell any information with third parties, except as described in this section. We do not disclose, release, publish, disseminate, rent, or sell your personal information with other organizations for their marketing or promotional uses. You should be aware that any personal information that you voluntarily choose to display on any publicly available forums, such as our online community, Edgio Connect, becomes publicly available and may be read, collected, and used by others without restriction. We are not responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these forums.

We also have testimonials on our website. Any user that has provided a testimonial on our website allows us to post their testimonial and personally identifiable information on the site.

We may disclose some limited user information to affiliated companies or other businesses or persons to provide website hosting, maintenance, and security services, job board services, fulfill orders, conduct data analysis and create reports, offer certain functionality, and assist us in improving our website or our services and in creating new services features. We may share aggregated log files with our business customer with whom you have a relationship. We require that these parties process such information in compliance with this Policy. We authorize only a limited use of such information, and we require these parties to use reasonable confidentiality measures.

We may share aggregate statistical information gathered from you and other users with advertisers, business partners, sponsors, or other third parties. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of visitors visited a certain area on a website or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out registration forms. We share such information only on an aggregate and anonymous basis.

Edgio does not have reason to believe that U.S. or other governmental agencies wish to access its infrastructure, nor does Edgio does voluntarily permit U.S. or other governmental agencies to access its infrastructure. If Edgio were to receive such a request, Edgio may disclose Personal Data to the extent required to meet a legal obligation, including national security or law enforcement obligations and applicable law, rule, order, or regulation. However, Edgio will object to any such request where there is a legitimate basis to do so. Additionally, Edgio will promptly notify Customer (and where possible, the Data Subject) of any legally binding request for disclosure of Personal Data by a law enforcement authority, unless prohibited from doing so by law. We may also disclose your information to enforce applicable Terms of Service, which may include an investigation of potential violations, or to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues.

In the event that we are acquired by or merged with a third–party entity, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information that we have collected from users as part of that merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control. You will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our website of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your personal information.

We also reserve the right to disclose user information that we believe, in good faith, is appropriate or necessary to take precautions against liability; protect us from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful uses, to investigate and defend ourselves against third–party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, to protect the security or integrity of the website and our services, or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of us, our customers, their end users, or others.
