1. Personal Information We Collect

We collect Personal Information about you from different sources listed below. In this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” means any information related to an identified or identifiable individual and does not include data whereby personally identifiable information has been removed (such as aggregate or anonymous data).

Information Provided by You

Account information. When you create an account for our Platform you provide us with Personal Information, such as your name, email address, telephone number, job title, company name, country, and password.
Contact information and other information you choose to provide to us.

Event and meeting information. When you register to attend an event, or schedule an in-person meeting with us, you provide us with Personal Information, such as your name, email address, telephone number and details on the event or meeting you would like to attend with us.

When you engage with Armis content through outside parties, offline or online, or consent to sharing your information with our partnered vendors, we collect or update existing information to ensure we provide you a quality experience and send any appropriate communications. Participating parties may include media agencies, data vendors, and integration partners.
Support information. When you request technical support services, we will process your Personal Information such as your name and the contact details you use to contact us, as well as information on the reasons for your support request, and any additional information you may provide in that context.

Cookie information. We and third parties may automatically collect information about your visit to and use of the Services via cookies (see below in Section 4: “Cookies and Similar Technologies” and our Cookie Policy for more information). The information they collect may include Personal Information, such as your IP address, advertising identifiers, non-personal information about your device including model, version and operating system, the web pages that you visit just before or just after you use our Website, as well as information about your interactions with our Website, such the time of your visit and where you have clicked.
