Introduction

Your privacy is important to RSA Security LLC so we have developed this Privacy Policy that outlines our privacy practice on how we process, collect, use and share your personal data as well as your privacy rights under certain privacy laws. We may provide additional data privacy information by using a supplementary privacy notice(s).

In this Privacy Policy, “RSA,” “our,” “us,” or “we” refers to RSA Security LLC and its relevant affiliate(s) involved in the collection, use, sharing or processing of your personal data.

RSA is committed to protecting the privacy and security of all personal data we collect when you access, use, or interact with us via our websites, marketing communications and personal data we process in order to provide services to our customers.

It also does not apply to information that has been aggregated, de-identified, or pseudonymized.

Device and usage data is primarily used to identify the unique uses of our websites instead of identifying specific individuals unless identity is required for security purposes or to provide services to the individual.

3.2 Tracking Technologies

Our websites, online services, interactive applications, email messages, and advertisements may use tracking technologies such as web beacons, pixels, tags, and cookies to help us tailor your experience, better understand your preferences, tell us which parts of our websites you have visited, and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of our interest-based advertisements and web services, and gather information about the use of our websites and the interactions with our emails.

Web beacons and pixels are used on our websites and in our emails to help deliver cookies, gather usage and performance data, and operate and improve our websites and marketing emails.

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that are stored on your device’s local storage through your web browser for recordkeeping purposes. Some cookies allow us to make it easier for you to navigate our websites and services, improve and customize your browsing experience, and infer your browsing preferences, while others are used to enable a faster log-in process or allow us to track your online activities over time and across our webpages.

We use both session-based and persistent cookies.

  • Session-based cookies only exist during a single session and will disappear from your device when you close your browser or turn off your device. We use session cookies to allow our systems to uniquely identify you during a session or while you are logged into the websites or our services. This allows us to process your online transactions and requests and to verify your identity after you have logged in, as you move through our webpages and services.
  • Persistent cookies will remain on your device even after you close your browser or turn off your device. We use persistent cookies to track aggregate and statistical information about user activity on our websites.

There are four categories of cookies:

  • Strictly Necessary: These cookies allow core website functionalities. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
  • Functionality: Functionality cookies are used to remember visitor information on the website, eg. language, timezone, enhanced content.
  • Advertising: Advertising cookies track your activity across our websites to understand your interests and to show you personalized marketing.
  • Analytics: These cookies help improve our website by analyzing and reporting information on how visitors use it.
3.3 Disabling Cookies on Your Browser

Besides using our Privacy Settings, you can opt out from the collection of non-essential device and usage data on your web browser. Depending on your personal preferences, you can edit your browser options by using the “Help” function in your browser toolbar. You can prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or disable all cookies. However, it is important to note that if you block or delete cookies that we use on our websites, you will still be able to browse certain areas of the websites, but some features may not function properly.

3.4 Flash Local Storage Objects

We may use Flash Local Storage Objects (Flash LSOs) to store your website preferences and to personalize your visit. Flash LSOs are different than browser cookies because of the amount and type of data stored. Typically, you cannot control, delete, or disable acceptance of all Flash LSOs through your web browser.
For more information about Flash LSOs and to learn how to manage your settings for Flash LSOs, go to the Adobe Flash Player Help Page.

3.5 Invisible Images

Invisible Images are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your device’s local storage, these images are embedded invisibly on web and application pages.

We may use invisible images, which are also known as web beacons, web bugs, or pixel tags in connection with our websites and service offerings to, among other things, track the activities of website visitors and application users, help us manage content, and compile statistics about website usage.

We, and our third-party service providers, also use invisible images in HTML emails to our customers to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and to track whether our emails are forwarded.

3.6 Behavioral or Interest Based Advertising

We, and our third-party service providers, may use information about your visit to our websites, such as pages you visit, items you view, and your responses to our advertisements and emails. This information allows us to make the advertisements you see more relevant to you. To update your preferences, you may click “unsubscribe” in any email marketing communication that is sent to you.

It may take up to ten (10) business days for your email preferences to take effect.

You may also visit the opt out pages to opt out of many third-party advertising networks through various trade association websites such as:

However, using these opt out pages does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising through our websites or services, or on other third-party websites.

3.7 Third Party Advertising Networks

From time to time, we may give unaffiliated network advertisers information, including your personal data. These network advertisers provide advertisements on our websites, applications, and on other parties’ websites and media, such as social networking platforms.

Our shared use of your personal data with these network advertisers enables us to offer the products and services that will be of most interest to you. Non-affiliated ad network providers, network advertisers, sponsors, and/or traffic measurement services may use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons, Flash LSOs, and other tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize advertising content to you. Other parties’ cookies and technologies are governed by each company’s specific privacy policy, and not by this Privacy Policy.

When we work with third party advertising networks, we require them to restrict their data processing to only what is necessary to provide us with the advertising services we request.

Website users located in the United States may learn more about opting out and opt out of many third-party advertising networks through various trade association websites such as:

However, it does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising through our websites, services, or on other third-party websites.

3.8 Cross Device Use

We, and our third-party service providers, including Google, may use the information that we collect about you, whether directly from our website, from our mobile applications, through your device, or from a third party, to help us and our third-party service providers identify other devices that you use, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or other computer.

We, and our third-party service providers may also utilize the cross-device use information we learn about you to serve targeted advertising on your devices and to send you emails.

To opt out of cross device use, you may opt out of third-party advertising (see Section 3.7). However, if you opt out of these advertising cookies, your opt out will be specific to the web browser, application, or device from which you accessed the opt out. If you use multiple devices or web browsers, you will need to opt out of each device and each browser on each device that you use.

3.9 Do Not Track Option

Some internet browsers offer a “Do Not Track” option that allows you to tell websites that you do not want your online activities tracked. There is currently no industry common standard, therefore, we do recognize these Do Not Track signals on our websites. We take privacy and your preferences seriously and will continue to monitor Do Not Track developments and the adoption of a standard.

However, you may disable certain tracking by clicking on “Privacy Settings” at the bottom of our website located at: RSA.com by disabling cookies on your browser (see Section 3.3), or by opting out of advertising (see Sections 3.6 and 3.7).

3.10 Social Media

We are responsible for the content we publish using social media platforms, but we are not responsible for managing the social media platforms or the data they collect and process. Our websites have social media sharing plugins. These widgets may allow you to post information about your activities on our websites on outside platforms and social networks. You may also be able to like or share information we have posted on our websites or our branded social media pages. If the social media pages are hosted by the individual platforms and you click through to the site from our websites, the platform may receive information showing that you visited our websites. If you are logged into the social media site at the time you click through, the social media site may be able to link your visit to our websites with your social media profile.

12.3 CPRA Rights

California’s laws grant state residents certain rights under certain circumstances in relation to their personal data:

  • Right to Opt-Out of Sale: we do not sell your personal data for monetary consideration. However, we do share personal data, which could be considered a “sale” under the definition provided in the CPRA. You have the right to direct us not to sell your personal data by notifying us at privacy@rsa.com. You also have the right to opt-out of targeting advertising when you opt-out of the sale of personal information. We may still use aggregated, pseudonymized, and de-identified personal data that does not identify you or any individual. We may also retain your personal data as needed to comply with our legal obligations, to enforce agreements, and to resolve disputes.
  • Right to Access: you may request disclosure about our collection and use of your personal data in the past twelve (12) months. This includes the categories of personal data we have sold or disclosed for a business purpose about you, and the categories of third parties to whom the personal data was sold or disclosed. This includes your right to request disclosure of specific pieces of your personal data such as:
    • The categories of personal data that we have collected about you
    • The categories or sources from which we collected the personal data
    • The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling the personal data

    The information may be delivered by mail or electronically. If it is provided electronically, it will be portable and in a readily usable format so you can transmit the information to another entity or person.

  • Right to Request Deletion: you may request that we delete any personal data that we have collected from you. We will not delete the personal data if it will create problems with the completion of a transaction or compliance with a legal obligation. This right to request deletion is subject to our right to maintain your personal data for specific purposes allowed under the CPRA.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination: we will never discriminate against you by denying goods or services or providing a different level or quality of goods or services if you exercise any of these rights that have been granted to you.
  • Right to Correct Inaccuracies: you may request a business that maintains inaccurate personal information about the consumer to correct that inaccurate personal information, taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing of the personal information.
  • Right to Limited Usage: you may limit how your sensitive personal information is used and who it is shared with.
12.4 How We Handle Your Requests

As part of processing your request, we will require you to provide certain personal data about you to verify your identity in accordance with CPRA requirements. This information may include your first and last name, email address, physical address, telephone number, account number, and the nature of your relationship with us.

You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. To comply with such a request, we will require the personal data referenced above for identification verification purposes as well as the first and last name, email address, and telephone number of your authorized agent.

Once we verify your request, we will make every attempt to respond within forty-five (45) days. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and the extension period in writing. If we cannot comply with your request, we will respond in writing with the reasons why.

Any disclosure will only cover the twelve (12)-month period preceding the receipt of the request.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your request unless there are excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded requests. If we determine that your request warrants a fee, we will tell you why, in writing, along with a cost estimate before completing your request.

You may only make a personal data access request up to two (2) times in any twelve (12) month period.

12.5 Residents Under 18

If you are a California resident under the age of eighteen (18) and have registered for an account with us, you may request that we remove content or information that you have posted to our websites. This request does not ensure that we will completely remove the content or information as some of your content may have been reposted by another user.

14. COVID-19 Screening Tool and Thermal Vision Camera

In order to help reduce the risk of COVID-19 infections and keep our communities safe, all RSA employees, contingent workers, and visitors must complete a daily health survey and pass a thermal body temperature screening in order to gain access to RSA premises. The thermal vision camera measures your body temperature on an anonymous basis and RSA does not retain your body temperature. If your body temperature is equal to or above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, you will be denied entry and/or asked to leave RSA premises.

The health survey screening tool, available via an app or web portal, collects your name, email address, and certain health data you voluntarily provide. This information will be retained on your device and not shared with RSA unless you self-report that you are COVID-19 positive. In that case, the tool will notify the appropriate RSA team, and your email address will be retained for up to 30 days (subject to local laws) so RSA may contact you as it takes appropriate action to protect the health and safety of individuals at RSA physical locations. Your COVID-19 positive status will be shared with the RSA team and applicable public health authorities (as required by law). Your status will also be shared on an anonymous basis with potentially infected individuals for contact tracing purposes.
