Pro-Tech Insights continually strives to strengthen the relationship we share with you and provide content that is useful to you. To do that, we use cookies on our Site. Cookies help us publishers improve your browsing experience. Having said that, stay assured that your data is well protected, secured, and in safe hands.

Please read the following carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding the use of cookies on the Pro-Tech Insights Site. By using or accessing our Site, you agree to this Cookie Policy. This Policy may change from time to time and your continued use of the Site is deemed to be acceptance of such changes.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your browser when you visit a Site. Most web pages contain elements from multiple web domains. So when you visit our Site, your browser may receive cookies from several sources. This includes third parties that we have hired to provide services on our behalf, such as Site analytics or ad targeting.

Cookies & Other Tracking Mechanisms

Pro-Tech Insights uses Cookies and other tracking mechanisms to ensure visitors to our Site have the best possible experience and to provide targeted advertising. We may use cookies, now or in the future, to support the functionality or track usage of our Services. This provides a better experience when you use our Services and allows us to improve our Services.

Browser Cookies

A browser cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. That cookie then communicates with servers, ours or those of other companies that we authorize to collect data for us and allows recognition of your device. You may use the tools available on your computer or other devices to set your browser to refuse or disable all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, if you refuse or disable all browser cookies, you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website or use certain features or functionality of our Services.

Flash Cookies

Certain features of our Services may use local stored objects called flash cookies to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. We also include cookies in our third-party hosted video players to count the number of unique viewers who see a customer’s video press release and to provide aggregate reporting. Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies. To learn how you can manage your Flash cookie settings, visit the Flash player settings page on Adobe’s website. If you disable or refuse Flash cookies, please note that some parts of our Services may be inaccessible or may not function properly.

Web Beacons

Our Services may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear GIFs, pixel tags, tracking pixels, and single-pixel GIFs) that permit us to, for example, count users who have visited those pages or opened an e-mail and for other website-related statistics. Web beacons in e-mail marketing campaigns, press releases, or other types of communications or content allow us to track your responses and your interests in our content, offerings, and web pages. We may use web beacons and/or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you interact with our Services, e-mails, press releases, or other types of communications or content, including information about your browsing and purchasing behavior.

Analytics Service

We or our affiliates also use web analytics services, including Google Analytics, Hotjar, and Adobe Analytics. Such web analytics services use cookies and similar technologies to analyze how users use the domains. The information generated about domain usage (including your shortened IP address) is transmitted to the web analytics services. This information is used to evaluate visitors’ use of the domain, compile statistical reports on domain activity, and provide other services related to the Site and Internet use. Such services may also collect information about Domain visitors’ use of other websites.

Do Not Track Disclosure

Some browsers support a “Do Not Track” feature, which is intended to be a signal to websites that you do not wish to be tracked across different websites you visit. Our Services do not currently change the way they operate based on the detection of a Do Not Track or similar signal. You may, however, disable certain tracking as discussed in the Cookies & Other Tracking Mechanisms section above (e.g., by disabling cookies.)

Your Choices

  • Opting out of marketing communications. You may receive certain promotional or informational communications from us. Where required by law, promotional communications will be sent only with your consent. You can opt-out of promotional e-mails at any time by following the instructions at the bottom of the e-mails. Please note that certain e-mails may be necessary for the operation of our Services. You may, however, continue to receive these e-mails relating to your account or our Services, if appropriate, even if you unsubscribe from our optional communications.
  • Opting out of behavioral advertising. You may opt-out of many third-party ad networks. For example, you may go to the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Consumer Choice Page at aboutads.info/choices for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and your choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. You may also go to the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) Consumer Opt-Out Page at www.networkadvertising.org/choices for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and your choices regarding having information used by NAI members. Additional information is available on the DAA’s website at www.aboutads.info or the NAI’s website at www.networkadvertising.org. Opting out from one or more companies listed on the DAA Consumer Choice Page or the NAI Consumer Opt-Out Page will opt you out from those companies’ delivery of interest-based content or ads to you, but it does not mean you will no longer receive any advertising through our Services or any third-party services. You may continue to receive advertisements, for example, based on the particular website that you are viewing (i.e., contextually based ads). If your browser is configured to reject cookies when you opt-out on the DAA or NAI websites, your opt-out may not be effective. Please note that if you use multiple devices you will have to opt-out on each individual device. If you reside in the EU you may go to www.youronlinechoices.com for information about opting out of interest-based advertising.
  • Cloaking your identity. Journalists and others who use ProfNet Experts may choose not to disclose their identity when in direct communication with experts and company information officers by following the directions on that website to “cloak” their identity.
