Collection of personal data

According to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), personal data is defined as:

Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific about the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

By "Usage Information" or "Usage Data" we mean information about an individual's online activity that does not itself identify the individual, such as browser type, operating system, most viewed and visited pages and links on our web site entry and exit points, number of form completions, time spent on pages, most popular downloads, top off-site keywords used to bring customers to our website, information collected through cookies and other information about device event such as system activity, crashes, and hardware settings.
