Collection and use of personal information
Threat Expert does not collect any personal data about you on this website or in
connection with any other service, apart from information which you volunteer (for

feedback form). When you submit a sample file to Threat Expert, we may collect information
including your name and contact details.
Information which you provide is used by Threat Expert only in line with the purpose

third party products. Threat Expert may also contact you in relation
to customer support
queries which you lodge.
Your personal data may also be anonymised and used for statistical purposes.
Your rights regarding data supplied to Threat Expert
You have a right to be given a copy of any personal data which you may have supplied

Collection and use of technical information
This website does use cookies - a small file containing a string of characters that
is sent to your computer to identify your browser - including temporary "session"
cookies which enable a visitor's web browser to remember which pages on this website
have already been visited. Visitors can use this website with no substantial loss
of functionality if cookies are disabled from the web browser.
Technical details in connection with visits to our website may be logged by us or
a third party for our statistical purposes. No information is collected that could
be used by us to identify website visitors. The technical details logged are confined
to the following types of information:
- the Internet Protocol address or gateway of the visitor's web server
- the previous website address from which the visitor reached us
- clickstream data which shows the traffic of visitors around this web site (for example pages accessed and documents downloaded)
- the type of web browser used by the visitor
- the operating system of the visitor's computer
- the screen resolution of the visitor's computer monitor.
By supplementing our records, this information helps us learn things like what pages are most attractive to our visitors and what kinds of offers our customers like to see. Where a third party logs information on our behalf, we control how that data may and may not be used.
Threat Expert will make no attempt to identify individual visitors, or to associate the technical details listed above with any individual. It is Threat Expert's policy never to disclose such technical information in respect of individual website visitors to any third party (apart from any third party providing services to us which may record such data on our behalf and which is bound by confidentiality provisions in this regard), unless obliged or permitted to disclose such information by a rule of law.
The technical information will be used only by Threat Expert, and only for statistical and other administrative purposes. You should note that technical details, which we cannot associate with any identifiable individual, do not constitute "personal data" for the purposes of the Data Protection Acts, 1988 & 2003 (Ireland).

These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information from you.
