We use cookies and other online tracking technologies to understand visitor activity on our Site, and to hold certain information about your visits to help improve your experience while using the Site.
A cookie is a text file sent by a web server and placed on your computer by your web browser. Cookies can be divided into two different types: “session” and “persistent.” Session cookies differ from persistent cookies primarily in that session cookies are temporary and expire and are normally deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies, in contrast, remain stored on your computer after you close your browser until they are deleted either because they expire, or you delete them. Talus uses session cookies and persistent cookies in connection with providing our Site. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Site.
Cookies are often used in conjunction with other Internet technologies, such as web beacons, to understand behavior on the Internet. “Local shared objects,” “LSO’s,” or “flash cookies” are data files similar to cookies, except that they can store more complex data, particularly for video, interactive gaming, and other similar services. “Web beacons,” “clear pixels,” “clear GIFs,” or “pixel tags” are small graphic images on a webpage or in an email. A “web server log” is a record of activity created by the computer that delivers the webpages you request to your browser. A “widget” is a program or application that can be embedded in a web page or mobile application and can provide real-time information, such as stock quotes or weather reports, or take information, such as online orders.
The types of cookies and other tracking technologies we use are:
Session Cookies. We may use session cookies to operate our Site and for security purposes.
Persistent Cookies. We may use persistent cookies to remember your preferences and various settings.
Local Shared Objects. We may use local shared objects to remember your settings, preferences, and usage.
Web Beacons. We may use web beacons for things such as recording the pages and advertisements clicked on by users or tracking the performance of email marketing campaigns.
Web Server Logs. We may use web server logs for things such as recording information about your browser (such as your IP address), the search term you entered or link you clicked to bring you to the Site, or tracking the performance of email marketing campaigns.
Widgets. We may use widgets to allow third parties to collect data about users viewing the Site or interacting with that widget, possibly subject to privacy policies other than this one.
In general, our purposes for using the above technologies are:
Analytical. We use cookies to analyze user activity in order to improve the Site. For example, we can use cookies to look at aggregate patterns like the average number of views on a specific Site page. We can use such analyses to gain insights about how to improve the functionality and user experience of the Site.
Your Preferences and User Experience. We use cookies to gather certain information about users, such as browser type, server, language preference, and country setting, in order to store user preferences on our Site and to make your user experience more consistent and convenient. We may also use your IP address to determine your geographic location in order to provide you with the most relevant search results. We may use persistent cookies to remember your preferences and various settings.
Referral Tracking. We use cookies to associate user activity with the third party website that referred you to our Site, or to associate user activity that we referred to a third party website. We do not share any personal information or information about individual user activities with these partner entities. We also use cookies to associate user activity with the email campaign that referred the user to our Site.
Security. We use cookies to limit certain types of cyber-attacks and other data security incidents.
Testing, Usability, and Performance. We use cookies to ensure users receive a consistent user experience while we conduct A/B testing on certain aspects of our Site in order to improve our product offerings. We also use cookies to improve the performance and reliability of our Site.
Fraud/Spam Prevention. We use cookies during fraud reviews and investigations. Some of our cookie/device tracking happens via third party vendors. Other times, we use our own indexes to identify activity related to specific cookies.
We may use third-party Website Providers to monitor and analyze the use of our Site.
Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Site. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. You can opt-out of having made your activity on the Site available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on here. The add-on prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about site activity.
For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.
HubSpot Analytics is a web analytics service offered by HubSpot, Inc. HubSpot utilizes cookie and usage data collected to track and examine the use of the Site, analyze demographic information, and to prepare reports on user activities and share them with other HubSpot services. HubSpot may use the data collected to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.
For more information on the privacy practices of HubSpot, please visit the HubSpot Privacy Policy web page: https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy.

We may use remarketing services to advertise on third party websites to you after you visited our Site. We and our third-party vendors use cookies to inform, optimize and serve ads based on your past visits to our Site.
None of the above technologies are strictly necessary to access our Site. You may reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to allow your browser to alert you when a cookie is set, however, certain parts of the Site may function differently and not as well. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our Site will issue cookies when you log on to the Site. For more information about how to manage your cookie preferences, you should use the “help” menu of your web browser or explore the customer support sections of your web browser. Please note that you need to configure each browser on each device that you use if you wish to opt-out or block some or all cookies.
The online advertising industry also provides websites from which you may opt out of receiving targeted ads from data partners and other advertising partners that participate in self-regulatory programs. You can access these and learn more about targeted advertising and consumer choice and privacy, at www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp, http://www.youronlinechoices.eu, https://youradchoices.ca/choices/, and www.aboutads.info/choices/.
Please note you must separately opt out in each browser and on each device. Advertisements on third party websites that contain the AdChoices link may have been directed to you based on information collected by advertising partners over time and across websites. These advertisements provide a mechanism to opt out of the advertising partners’ use of this information for interest-based advertising purposes.
Talus does not track its customers over time and across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals. However, some third party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your browser allows you to set the DNT signal so that third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked.
We collect personal information directly from you or from publicly available sources, such as search engines, career networking sites, public databases, etc. We also collect personal information through automated means, such as cookies and web beacons.
In addition, Talus employs software programs to identify unauthorized access or access to nonpublic information, detect computer viruses and other software that might damage Talus’s computers or the network, and monitor and fine-tune the performance of our network. These programs may detect additional information from your computer such as your IP address and other technical information. This information is used only for the purpose of maintaining the security and performance of our Sites, networks and computer systems.
We process your personal information in accordance with applicable laws and the Principles listed above. In order to comply with these Principles, Talus will advise you on how we process your personal information in this Privacy Policy. We may use any personal information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy:
To provide our services, products, and features to you;
To manage the Site;
To measure and improve those services, products, and features;
To develop internal and external analyses;
To contact you or, if applicable, your designated representative(s) by post, telephone, electronic mail, facsimile, etc., in connection with your relationship and/or account;

Talus is located in the United States. Please note that by using our Sites, you give Talus your express and informed consent to transfer the personal information that you provide to Talus out of your country of residence to the United States, and to process it in the United States.
We may transfer the personal information we collect about customers and users to countries other than the country in which the personal information was originally collected. These countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you provided the personal information. When we transfer personal information to other countries, we will protect the personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and comply with applicable legal requirements providing adequate protection for the transfer of personal information to countries outside the originating country.
By providing us with your personal information, you consent to this transfer to the U.S. which your country may not consider providing for adequate privacy protections. You may withdraw your consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent prior to its withdrawal.
You may request more information about the safeguards that we have in place with respect to transfers of personal information by sending an email to privacy@talusrenewables.com from the email address associated with your account.
We allow certain third parties to use cookies and other online tracking technologies to collect personal information on our Sites to support our business purposes. These third parties may analyze activity and help us personalize your experience. These third parties may also provide free or enhanced add-on services to our company, and they may use your personal information for purposes beyond the services they provide to our company (for example, building consumer profiles to help other clients with their targeted advertising or enriched analytics). These types of online exchanges of personal information may be defined as “sales” or “sharing” under applicable law(s), with some exceptions. We may “sell” or “share” (as defined by the law) the following categories of personal information to third party online analytics and advertising providers: personal identifiers; internet and technical information; corporate affiliation information (to the extent it can be derived from your activity on our website).
You have the right to opt-out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information for cross context behavioral advertising or targeting purposes. To do so, you may manage your cookie preferences using the “help” menu of each browser on each device that you wish to opt-out or block some or all cookies.
You may also implement a browser setting or extension to communicate your selling and sharing preferences automatically to the websites you visit. The current “opt out preference signal” is called the Global Privacy Control (GPC). GPC is available on many browsers and browser extensions. To use GPC, download and enable it via a participating browser or browser extension. More information about the GPC is available here.
Talus endeavors to assure that all personal information is processed by entities with reasonable safeguards in place that are in accordance with the nature and sensitivity of such personal information.

The criteria used to determine the retention periods include: (i) how long the personal information is needed to provide the services and operate the business; (ii) the type of personal information collected; and (iii) whether we are subject to a legal, contractual or similar obligation to retain the personal information (e.g., mandatory data retention laws, government orders to preserve data relevant to an investigation, or data that must be retained for the purposes of litigation or disputes).
If your relationship with Talus ends, we will continue to treat your personal information, to the extent we retain it, as described in this Privacy Policy.

A second ground relied upon by Talus for other types of processing of your personal information is that it is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by Talus. Such legitimate interests will include those in which Talus sends you marketing about our products and services, where we believe you have a reasonable expectation that we will perform a particular type of processing on your behalf, or where such processing is strictly necessary for fraud detection and prevention. Talus will only rely on such a ground where an assessment has been performed balancing the interests and rights involved and the necessity of the processing in order to provide our services, products, and features to you.
A third ground relied upon for certain types of processing is that it is necessary in order to allow Talus to comply with a legal obligation. We will disclose your personal information in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to:
Comply with a legal obligation;
Protect and defend the rights or property of Talus;
Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Site;
Protect the personal safety of users of the Site or the public; or
Protect against legal liability.
Finally, in certain limited situations, Talus relies on your consent in order to process your personal information. Where Talus requires your consent in order to collect and process your personal information, we seek your consent at the time of collection, and such processing will only be performed where consent is secured. For example, your consent will be sought where you provide your personal information when you fill out a Site form to request more information about Talus products.
Where the legal basis for us processing your personal information is that you have provided your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time. You will not suffer any detriment for withdrawing your consent. If you withdraw your consent, this will not make unlawful any processing which we undertook prior to your withdrawal. You can withdraw your consent by sending an email to privacy@talusrenewables.com from the email address associated with your account.
