Cookies

AstroNova uses cookies or similar technologies to record log data and otherwise to make your interactions with AstroNova easy and optimally effective. We use both session-based and persistent cookies.

Cookies are small text files sent by us to your computer or other device and from your computer or other devices to us, each time you visit our website. They are unique to your AstroNova account or your browser or app. Session-based cookies last only while your browser or app is open and disappear from your device when you close your browser software or app or turn off your device. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser or app or turn off your device — and last until you or your browser delete them or until they expire.

Some cookies are associated with your AstroNova account and personal information in order to remember that you are logged in. Other cookies are not tied to your AstroNova account but are unique and allow us to do site analytics and customization, among other things. If you access AstroNova through a browser, you can manage your cookie settings there, but if you disable cookies you may not be able to use AstroNova effectively, or at all.

AstroNova sets and accesses our own cookies on the Service. In addition, we use third-party vendors who set and access their own cookies to assist us with various activities (e.g., we use Google Analytics to help us monitor our website traffic). The use of these cookies by third parties is not covered by our Privacy Policy; the information generated by the cookies about your use of the Service (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google under its own privacy policy: https://www.google.com/intl/en/analytics/privacyoverview.html. We do not have access or control over these cookies. For example, Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit the Service, rather than your name or other personal information. We do not combine the information generated through the use of Google Analytics with your personal information. Although Google Analytics plants a persistent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit the Service, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Service is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of the Service.]

Clickstream and Anonymous Data

We collect clickstream data and HTTP protocol elements through access logs. The information we collect gathers anonymous data unless an individual identifies themselves by voluntarily registering on our website via an inquiry form such as our “Contact Us” form.

We use anonymous data for website and system administration purposes including research and development, user analysis, and business decision-making. We use data that identifies specific individuals for the additional purpose of marketing communications in compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003. We collect the following types of anonymous information:

  • Log data: When you use AstroNova, our system automatically records information including information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website or your mobile app sends when you are using it. This log data may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, the address of the web page you visited before arriving at AstroNova, your browser type and settings, the date and time of your request, information about your browser configuration and plug-ins, language preferences, and cookie data.
  • Device information: In addition to log data, we may also collect information about the device on which you are accessing AstroNova, including what type of device it is, what operating system you are using, device settings, unique device identifiers, and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this information often depends on what type of device you are using, and its settings.
  • Geo-location information: Wi-Fi and IP addresses received from your browser or device may be used to determine approximate location.
  • Usage data: This is information about how you use the various capabilities and features of the AstroNova service. We use this information to better understand opportunities to improve the quality of the service we provide to you.
  • Information from partners or other third parties: AstroNova may receive information from partners or others to help make our own information better or more useful. For example, AstroNova’s mobile applications use Google Analytics to upload information about which features you use, but that information will never be connected to your identity, your devices, or your documents.
