For marketing to visitors to our Sites, LifeSafer is a data controller and determines the purpose and means of Personal Data processing.
Personal Data
The Data we collect about You
When you access our Sites, we may collect, or you may provide us with Personal Data. We may collect, use, store, and transfer different types of Personal Data about you, which we have grouped together as follows:
- Identity data and identifiers, including categories of Personal Information in Cal. Civ. Code Section 1798.80(e) such as your first name, last name, title, your organization and job role, or other identifiers such as a consumer’s social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number;
- Commercial Information such as Records of personal property, products or services purchased, obtained, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies.

- Inferences drawn from Personal Data, including consumer profiles reflecting a consumer’s preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, and aptitudes.
- Marketing and communications data including your preferences in receiving marketing materials and updates from us and third parties and your communication preferences.
We also collect, use, and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data. Aggregated data may be derived from your Personal Data but is not considered to be Personal Data in law as it does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your usage data to calculate the percentage of users accessing specific features. However, if we combine or connect aggregated data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, the combined data is Personal Data, and we deal with it in accordance with this privacy notice.
We do not knowingly collect details about your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health, sex life, sexual orientation, or genetic or biometric data (known as “special categories of data”) through our Sites. If we find we have collected this information inadvertently, we will promptly delete it.
How Your Personal Data is Collected
- Direct interaction with you. You may give us identity and contact data by filling in forms on our Sites or by communicating with us by mail, telephone, email or otherwise. This includes data you provide when you request information about our products and services, contact us in relation to our blog, refer a client, download resources, or use interactive features on our site or social media applications.
- Third parties and publicly available sources. We may receive Personal Data about you from other parties and/or from public sources, as set out below:
- technical data from analytics providers such as Google Analytics and Pardot and advertising networks such as Google Ads and Remarketing, Facebook Pixel, the X (Twitter) Conversion Tracker, and the LinkedIn Insight Tag;
- contact information about you from business partners, events, conferences, or industry tradeshows;
- other individuals under our “refer a client” form.
- Personal Data collected via automated means.
- Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and similar technologies (collectively “cookies”) to ensure that our Sites function properly, to improve our products and services and to assist with marketing campaigns. Cookies are small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters. We and third-party partners collect information using cookies, pixel tags, or similar technologies. We and third-party service providers may use the following cookies:
- Functional cookies. Some cookies are strictly necessary to make our Sites available to you. For example, to provide login functionality or to allow you to fill out forms. We cannot provide you with the Sites without this type of cookie.
- Analytics cookies. We use cookies for website analytics purposes to operate, maintain and improve our Sites, and to track whether you open emails that we send to you. We work with third parties such as HubSpot, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity for these purposes.
- Advertising cookies. We work with third party advertising partners such as Google Ads and Bing Ads to show you ads that we think may interest you. These advertising partners may set up and access their own cookies on our Sites and they may otherwise collect or have access to information about you which they may collect over time and across different online services.
Cookie Notice
We may use first party and third-party cookies on our Sites. “First party cookies” are deployed by us, and “third party cookies” are deployed by our third-party partners. Use of our Site could generate the following types of cookies:
- “Necessary” cookies, which are cookies that are necessary for the Sites to function properly. Some of the following actions can be performed by using these cookies:
- Storing articles in a shopping cart for online purchases
- Saving your cookie preferences for the Site
- Saving language preferences
- Logging in to our portal. We need to check whether you are logged in.
- “Performance” cookies, which are cookies that are used to gather statistical information about the use of the Site, also called analytics cookies. We use this data for performance and Site optimization.
- “Functional” cookies, which enable more functionality for our Site visitors. These cookies can be set by us or our external service providers. The following functionalities may or may not be activated when you accept this category:
- Live chat services
- Online videos
- Social media sharing buttons
- Logins to the Sites with social media
- “Advertising” or “Tracking” cookies, which are cookies are set by external advertising partners and are used for profiling and tracking data across multiple websites. If you accept these cookies, we may show our advertisements on other websites based on your user profile and preferences. These cookies also save data about how many visitors have seen or clicked on our advertisements in order to optimize advertising campaigns.
- “Unclassified” cookies, which are cookies that are still in the classification process. They will show up in one of the following categories: Necessary, Performance, Functional, or Advertising.
Cookies stay on your device for different periods of time depending on the type of cookie that is placed. These include:
- Session cookies. We use session cookies, which are temporary cookies that remain on your device until you leave our Sites.
- Persistent cookies. We also use persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a longer period of time to remember your preferences.
Pixel Tracking. In addition to using cookies, the Sites may employ “pixel tracking,” a common process which may be used in connection with advertisements on other websites. Pixel tracking involves the use of pixel tags that are not visible to the user and consist of a few lines of computer code. Pixel tracking measures the effectiveness of advertisements and compiles aggregate and specific usage statistics. A “pixel tag” is an invisible tag placed on certain pages of the Site that is used to track an individual user’s activity. We may access these pixel tags to identify activity and interests that may allow us to better match our Sites with your interests and needs. For example, if you visit our Site from an advertisement on a third-party site or service, the pixel tag will allow the advertiser to track that its advertisement brought you to the Site. If you use our Site, and we link you to a third party’s site or services, we also may be able to determine that you were sent to and/or transacted with the third-party’s site or services. This data is collected for use in our marketing, research, and other activities.
Meta Pixel. We incorporate “pixels” provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. in our Sites. This enables us to track user behavior after a user clicks on a Facebook ad and is redirected to our Site. By doing so, we can assess the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes and sometimes re-target (a type of online advertising that targets users that have previously visited our Site) users. Please note that the data collected through this process remains anonymous to us, meaning we do not have access to Personal Data of individual users. However, Facebook stores and processes this Personal Data. Therefore, we are providing you with this information based on our current understanding. It is important to be aware that Facebook may associate this information with your Facebook account and utilize it for its own promotional activities, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Usage Policy available here. You have the option to authorize Facebook and its partners to display advertisements on and off Facebook (see here). Additionally, a cookie may be stored on your computer for these purposes.
Google Analytics. We use, and/or some of our third-party service providers may use, Google Analytics or other analytics services to help us understand the use of our Sites. Google Analytics is a web analysis service provided by Google. Google utilizes data it collects to track and examine the use of our Site and to prepare reports on the activities occurring on the Sites, and share them with other Google services. Google may use the Personal Data collected to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.
Do Not Track (DNT) Signals. DNT is a privacy preference you can set in your web browser to indicate that you do not want certain information about your webpage visits collected across websites when you have not interacted with the service on the page. Because there is currently no industry or legal standard recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not recognize them.
If you are a visitor from the European Union or the United Kingdom, you will have the option to set your browser to refuse marketing or analytical cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, some parts of our site may become inaccessible or may not function properly.
