1. How We Obtain Information About You

We may collect personal data that you choose to share with us—including, but not limited to, your first and last name, physical address, email address, telephone number, or login credentials when you:

• Fill out a form
• Sign up to receive direct marketing communications
• Register online through the Services, through the Preference Center or sign up for an account through the Services
• Sign up to receive emails
• Attend an event that we, or one of our affiliates, have organized
• Communicate with us (for example, through the Contact Us form on the Services, through the chat feature on our Services, on a social-media platform, by sending us an email)

POS Portal may collect personally identifiable information from our users during the initial signup process, as well as during surveys or preference requests. We may use this information to contact you with offers, newsletters, and special promotions in which you have expressed interest or we believe may be of interest to you. Additional information, such as dietary preferences, preferred location, events, or group bookings, enable the administration of events you sign up for and send relevant offers based on your interests.

You have the option to provide demographic information (such as zip/postal code) to us. We encourage you to submit this information so we can provide you a more personalized experience. If you elect not to provide such demographic information, you may still participate in our program offerings.

2. Information We Obtain

Information You Provide

We may obtain personal data that you provide directly to us. For example:

• If you fill out a form, you may provide your contact information, such as your name, contact details, and any other information you provide on the form, such as the reason for your inquiry or your product preferences.
• If you sign up to receive electronic marketing communications from us, you may provide your contact information, such your name and email address, and your technology preferences.
• If you sign up to a feature on our Services, such as access to certain content, you may provide your name, contact information, and any other information necessary to access the feature.
• Each form may vary in the information required and collected. In most cases, an asterisk (*) indicates the required information on a form. You may choose to provide additional information within fields that are not required (please do not provide any sensitive information with submitting a form or other communication to us).
• If you participate in web-based contests or surveys, we may request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary, so you have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. POS Portal may use a third-party service provider to conduct these surveys or contests. We will not share the personally identifiable information you provide through a contest or survey with any third party except our service providers or supplier partners/sponsors, unless we give you prior notice.
• If you apply for a career opportunity, you may provide information, such as employment history and other information included in your resume or through the application process.
• Other information you choose to provide, such as through emails, the chat feature on our Services or other communications, social media pages, registrations, and sign-up forms.

Information We Collect Automatically

Our web servers may log information such as your operating-system type, browser type, domain, and other system settings, as well as the language your system uses and the country and time zone where your device is located. The web server logs may also record information such as the address of the web page that referred you to our Services, and the IP address of the device you use to connect to the internet. They may also log information about your interaction with the sites, such as which pages you visit. To control which web servers collect information by automated means, we may place tags called web beacons—small files that link web pages to particular web servers and their cookies. We also may collect information from your browser, such as your browsing history, and use it in conjunction with data gathered from forms and emails—to help us understand and respond to your needs.

LinkedIn Members

If you are a LinkedIn member and you visit our Services from LinkedIn, our Services may use tracking pixels—transparent graphic images placed on web pages—which, in combination with cookies, collect information contained within your LinkedIn profile, as well as your access of and interaction with the web pages that contain the pixels. POS Portal may work with LinkedIn to provide Sponsored Updates and advertisements to your LinkedIn news feed. If you complete a form on our Services, you may receive Sponsored messages via your LinkedIn email account, based on your visits to the Services and your perceived interests. To learn how to opt out of Sponsored messages, navigate to Settings and Privacy in your LinkedIn account, click on the Data privacy tab, and follow guidance provided to turn on/off Sponsored messages.

3. How We Use Information We Obtain

Information You Provide

We may use personal data you provide to respond to your inquiry—for example, to contact you about your request, ask a question, provide announcements about products and future events, conduct surveys, consider your application for employment, and contact you for other reasons related to offering and improving our services.

Your email address is used to send email that is designated in the customer email preference center. Our marketing emails contain links on how to unsubscribe from our mailing list, and how to request your data be updated.

In addition to the uses discussed above, we also may use the personal data you provide to:

• Provide our products and services and manage your accounts
• Communicate with you and provide customer support services, such as through the chat features on our Services, and record and maintain transcripts of chat communications
• Operate, evaluate, and improve our business
• Develop new products and services
• Perform market research
• Advertise and market the products and services we sell
• Personalize your experience with our products and services
• Determine the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing
• Analyze our products, services, and websites
• Compile, anonymize or aggregate personal data for our business purposes
• Maintain and enhance the safety and security of our products and services, prevent misuse, and troubleshoot technical issues
• Administer the Services

We may also use the information to protect against and prevent fraud, claims, and other liabilities, and to comply with or enforce applicable legal requirements, industry standards, and our policies and terms. We use personal data for these purposes when it is necessary to protect, exercise, or defend our legal rights, or when we are required to do so by law that applies to us.

Other Uses of Information

We also may use the information in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.

4. Information We Share

Personal information that you provide or that we collect about you is not sold to third parties for monetary compensation. We may share personal data you provide or we collect with the following parties for the purposes described in this Policy:

• Other companies in the ScanSource group
• Service providers that perform services on our behalf
• Business partners whose products or services we provide

We may share personal data with service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as payment service providers, analytics providers, hosting providers, customer support providers, such as providing the chat feature on our Services, and advisers.

From time to time, we may also disclose information (a) if we are required or permitted to do so by law or legal process—for example, due to a court order or a request from a law enforcement agency; (b) if we believe that such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss; (c) in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual fraudulent or other illegal activity; and (d) in the event we sell or transfer (or contemplate the sale or transfer of) all or a portion of our business or assets (including in the event of a reorganization, dissolution, or liquidation).

5. Data Security

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure, or use.

6. Children's Privacy

The Services are designed for a general audience and are not directed to children. In connection with the Services, we do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that a child under age 13 may have provided us with personal data, please contact us as specified in the How To Contact Us section of this Policy.

7. Use of Cookies and Other Automated Technologies

We may use third-party analytics services and third-party ad services on our Services. These ad services track information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites and apps by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of "cookies," "web beacons", web server logs, and other similar technologies. A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the Services. We use cookies to tell us whether you have visited us before or if you are a new visitor. We also use cookies to help us identify Services features in which you may have the greatest interest. Cookies may enhance your online experience by saving your preferences while you are visiting a particular site.

Certain pages on our Services contain "web beacons" (also known as internet tags, pixel tags, and clear GIFs). Web beacons allow third parties to obtain information, such as IP address, general location information, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, timestamps, browser type, and the information in cookies set by the third party.
