By accessing our Site and clicking the “accept” button, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Statement and you expressly consent to the processing of your Personal Data according to this Privacy Statement. You have the right to withdraw such consent at any time.

The Personal Data we gather from you is used to provide you with information and materials about our products and services, information about events, hiring purposes, systems improvements and maintenance. Analysis Group does not collect or maintain Personal Data for resale purposes, or share Personal Data with any other company or organization except as specifically disclosed herein. Such processing of your Personal Data is based on your consent thereto and also may be necessary for the performance of a contract between us.
DATA RETENTION. Your Personal Data will be retained for a period which can, in no event, be longer than 5 years after the last processing of such data.
DISCLOSING PERSONAL DATA TO COMPLY WITH LAWS AND SIMILAR DISCLOSURE. We reserve the right to access, use, preserve, or disclose your Personal Data when we have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation, or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (1) satisfy any applicable law or regulation, (2) respond to claims and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us, (3) to protect and defend our rights or property, and/or the rights or property of the visitors/users of our Site, or third parties, as permitted by law, (4) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (5) enforce our Terms of Use.
SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.

2. Service Providers. We may share your Personal Data with certain third-party companies that we hire to perform services on our behalf, such as, but not limited to hosting or operating the Site and related software applications, sending and managing email, analyzing data, and providing search results.

INFORMATION WE TRACK.
1. Cookies. Like many websites, we also use "cookie" technology to collect additional website usage data and to improve the Site and our services. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer’s hard disk. Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies. You can instruct your browser, by editing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. This data may include information such as your browser type or the domain from which you are visiting, the web-pages you visit, the search terms you use, and files which you may download. This Site also uses Google Analytics to collect Site usage data. We do not provide any Personal Data to Google through Google Analytics. You may opt out of Google Analytics here.
2. Log Data. When you visit the Site, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website ("Log Data"). This Log Data may include information such as your IP address, browser type, and type of device you are using to access. For most users accessing the Internet from an Internet service provider the IP address will be different every time you log on. We use Log Data to monitor the use of the Site and for the Site’s technical administration. We do not associate your IP address with any other personally identifiable information to identify you personally, except in the circumstances described in Section 4.
3. Do Not Track. Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” features. Most of these features, when turned on, send a signal or preference to the web sites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the Do Not Track signal, we do not currently respond to browser Do Not Track signals on the Site.
ANONYMOUS INFORMATION. "Anonymous Information" means information that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Data and does not permit the identification of individual persons. Analysis Group may create Anonymous Information records from Personal Data by excluding information (such as your name) that makes the information personally identifiable to you. We may use this Anonymous Information for any purpose, in our discretion. Any information requested for use of any of the tools or other Content (as defined in the Terms of Use) on the Site is not shared with any third parties but may be used by Analysis Group to administer the Site (including the tools or Content), diagnose problems, generate usage reports, and send you information and respond to inquiries and other requests.
CHILDREN UNDER 16 YEARS OF AGE. You should be aware that this Site is not intended for, or designed to attract, children under the age of 16 and as such, Analysis Group does not intentionally gather Personal Data about visitors who are under the age of 16.
OTHER WEB SITES. The provision of links to other web sites on the Site is for your convenience and does not signify our endorsement of such other web sites or their content. Analysis Group has no control over, does not review, and is not responsible or liable for these third party web sites or their content. Please be aware that the terms of this Privacy Statement do not apply to these third party web sites.
SECURITY. While we are committed to protecting the Personal Data we receive from you and use reasonable measures to maintain the security of such information, no company, including us, can fully eliminate security risks associated with the transmission of information through online transactions, and you do so at your own risk. We are not liable for any loss, misuse or alteration of information on the Site by any third party.
NOTICE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS. California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits customers who are California residents and who have provided Analysis Group with "personal information" (as that term is defined in Section 1798.83) to request certain information about the disclosure of that information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you are a California resident with questions regarding this, please contact us at info@analysisgroup.com.
TRANSFER OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA. Your Personal Data will be transferred to Analysis Group, Inc., established in the United States of America, to ensure a global client management, with which each single European local subsidiary has concluded standard data protection clauses. Without prejudice to the foregoing, Your Personal Data will not be transferred to third parties outside the European Union unless to third countries which were declared by the European Commission to ensure an adequate level of protection or, if it is not the case, if other appropriate safeguards are implemented.
YOUR RIGHTS. You have the right to access, correct or delete any Personal Data that we process about you, while acting as a data controller for the processing of such data, by sending an e-mail to AGWeb@analysisgroup.com together with a proof of your identity. You also have the right to object to the processing of your Personal Data for marketing purposes. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, including the Information Commissioner's Office in the UK or the Commission for the Protection of Privacy in Belgium, should you consider that your above mentioned rights or any of your data protection rights have been violated by us in the course of our processing of your Personal Data.
