Website Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 25, 2022

The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to explain our data practices for personal information collected through this website. This Privacy Policy only applies to personal information collected through the TVisionInsights.com website, and other websites owned by TVision Insights, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including mytvpanel.com, and related mobile applications (the “website” or collectively, “websites”).  This website is operated by TVision Insights, Inc. (“we” “us” or “our”).

Collection Of Your Personal Information on this Website

This website is primarily directed to our customers, prospective customers, and others interested in using our services or working with us.  When you visit our website, we may collect certain information from you. This information falls into two categories: 

(1) information that identifies you individually (such as name, email address, phone number, and address), which you may voluntarily supply, including when you request information from us or request to be contacted (e.g., you fill out our contact form on our Contact Us page), when you sign up for our newsletter or to receive our reports, when you log into our website, when you apply for a job on our website, when you post content to our website (e.g., on our blog posts), or when you provide your information as a panelist via our website, and 

(2) information collected passively, as you navigate our websites, such as a unique “cookie” ID or IP address (“Tracking Information”).  We describe below how we use each of those categories of information.

Use of your Information Collected on Our Website

We use your personal information to: (1) improve our website; (2) allow you to set up a user account and profile; (3) contact you; (4) respond to your requests, including requests to receive our reports and newsletters; (5) analyze how you use the website, (6) process your employment application, (7) respond to legal requirements, requests and actions, protect the security of our business, and enforce our terms, and (8) engage in other uses described under “How We Share Your Information” below. 

If you are a panelist, we also use your information as described in the applicable panelist privacy policy.

We may also use the information for any purpose for which it was collected.  For instance, if we conduct a survey on our website, we will use that information to analyze the survey results and apply them to our marketing or business purposes.

We may use technologies to track your use of our website and to tailor your web experience.  We may, for instance, use technologies to send you display advertising when you view our website or other websites.  These technologies include “cookies,” which we describe immediately below.   

We may combine any information that we collect from you, whether collected directly or passively from you.

Use of Cookies on Our Website

Cookies are small, unique strings of code stored on your computer that make it easier for you to use our site and help us improve site functionality and security.   We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them or until they expire).  We, and third-party cookie-based ad platforms we may work with, use cookies to automatically collect information about your computer when you visit our websites, and automatically store it in log files. This may include the type of browser software you use, the operating system you are running, the website that referred you, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address (from which your general location may be inferred).   

We may use our own proprietary cookies (set from our own web domain), as well as cookies hosted by third-party vendors such as ad or analytics vendors and partners.  Third-party cookies generally employ unique identifiers (often randomly generated) to help advertisers customize users’ web experiences, based on the users’ likely interests. They may be used to tailor ad content on websites you visit.  They may collect data such as your browser type, your operating system, Web pages visited, time of visits, content viewed, and other clickstream data.    We use these cookies to retarget information and offers to you about our services:  for instance, if you view a page on our website regarding an event or conference we are hosting, we might use a third-party ad partner to send you an ad about the event when you visit another website. 

When you visit our websites or open an email you have received from us, we or one of our ad partners may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. These cookies enable us to send you ads about our services, customize our services and gather analytics about our web traffic.  Additionally, emails we send to you may contain a bit of code known as a "web beacon,” also called a “pixel” or “web pixel.”   This code helps us understand the time and date when a user opened an email sent by us, and when he/she has used a link within the email to visit a website, thus allowing us to collect analytics about our traffic, customize our services, and send better ads about our services.   These electronic images also may help us measure how effective our email campaigns are by, for instance, counting the number of individuals who visit our website or open an email we send.  For example, the Google Analytics service on this website provides reports to us about how many users came to the website, and what links they may have used to get here.  (To opt-out of Google Analytics, please go to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.)

You can often disable our web beacons by turning images "off" in your email client (e.g., Outlook, Outlook Express).  Please see your email client settings for more information.

Your browser likewise may permit you to reject or delete cookies, but this may prevent the proper working of our website.  

This website does not currently display third-party advertising, but if you want to opt-out of receiving cookies related to interest-based advertising (including receiving “re-targeted” ads) please visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ or http://aboutads.info – two opt-out “portals” that are operated by leading industry self-regulatory groups.  (We provide this link as a courtesy to privacy-conscious users – we are not responsible for the providers on those websites.)

For additional information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit allaboutcookies.org

We do not respond to browser Do Not Track (DNT) signals at this time.
