Privacy Policy

GENERAL

This Privacy Policy describes the practices Bottomline Solutions (DBA NextGen Benefits) follows with respect to the collection, use, maintenance and disclosure of information collected through nextgenbenefits.com. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect from the nextgenbenefits.com, and does not apply to any other website or business activity of nextgenbenefits.com. By using nextgenbenefits.com, you consent to the collection, use, maintenance and disclosure of this information by us.

We reserve the right to revise this policy at any time.  When we do, we will give you notice of the revised Privacy Policy by posting the revised Privacy Policy nextgenbenefits.com and by revising the “effective date” at the top of this Privacy Policy.  You are responsible for regularly reviewing the current privacy policy.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect “personally identifiable information” and “usage information.”

“Personally identifiable information” is information that tells us who you are, such as your name, phone number, physical address, e-mail address, employment information, job history and qualifications. “Usage information” is information automatically collected by our web server (which may be hosted by a third-party) that your web browser makes available whenever you visit or use nextgenbenefits.com, such as your computer’s IP address, browser type, operating system version and geolocation information.

We may collect personally identifiable information when you contact us via nextgenbenefits.com, create an account or register with nextgenbenefits.com, edit or update your account information, participate in our surveys, contests and other promotions or if you voluntarily choose to provide it to us.  For example, we may collect your name, phone number, physical address, e-mail address, employment information, job history and qualifications, and job title and company name.

You can choose not to provide personally identifiable information to us.  If you do not provide personally identifiable information, however, you will not be able to create an account, so your ability to use nextgenbenefits.com will be limited to those web pages available to unregistered users of the Site, and you may be unable to use certain other features of the nextgenbenefits.com.  Also, we will be unable to contact you (e.g., the event that you win a prize through a promotion) or respond to any inquiry from you.

We may collect “usage information” anytime you view and/or interact withnextgenbenefits.com or its pages, features and functionality.  For example, we may collect your computer’s IP address, browser type, operating system version, geolocation information, and information regarding your browsing activities (e.g., what parts of the website you visit, what items you click on, and information about the website that you visited before or after visiting nextgenbenefits.com).  We may associate this information with your personally identifiable information and/or other information that you provide (e.g., survey responses).

nextgenbenefits.com may also use “cookies” and other technologies to recognize users and customize their experience and obtain information regarding the use of nextgenbenefits.com. A cookie is a small text file that a website’s server places on a user’s computer, mobile phone, or other devices.  The cookie transmits information back to the website’s server about the browsing activities of the computer user on nextgenbenefits.com.  This includes information such as pages and content viewed, the time and duration of visits, and whether a computer user clicked on an advertisement.  Cookies also can be used to recognize users and maintain data related to a particular individual, including passwords.  If you would prefer not to accept cookies from nextgenbenefits.com or any other website, you can modify the settings on your web browser.  You may refer to your browser’s online help feature for instructions on how to do this.  If you refuse to accept cookies, it is possible that some portions of nextgenbenefits.com may not function as intended.

In some instances, personally identifiable information and other usage information may be collected via a third-party service provider, such a third party who provides online products and services that we use for surveys, contact management, recruiting and hiring (e.g., job applications), sales and/or marketing. Those third-party service providers will provide the personally identifiable information that is collected to us.  Such information will be subject to our privacy policy but may also be subject to the third party’s own privacy policies.

For example, we may use cookies (as discussed above) through Google Analytics.  For more information on collection and processing of data through Google Analytics, please see www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners.

We may provide your personally identifiable information to third parties who provide services to us or on our behalf.  For example, we may provide personally identifiable information to third parties who handle marketing and other communications on our behalf.  We may also disclose personally identifiable information to affiliated companies, our parent company and sister companies.
