Security
QlikTech will employ reasonable precautions to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. Such measures may include the use of password protection and restricting access to personal information to those with a legitimate purpose in receiving the information. Employees who have access to such personal information shall be trained regarding this Policy, advised that they are responsible for fully complying with the privacy principles articulated in this Policy and instructed that violations of these principles shall result in appropriate discipline up to and including termination.
Cookies
When someone visits the site, a cookie is placed on the customer's machine (if the customer accepts cookies) or is read if the customer has visited the site previously. A "cookie" is a small amount of data transferred to your browser and read by the Web server that placed it there. It works as a sort of identification card, recording your preferences and previously entered information. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to accept or reject it.
To ensure we are publishing content customers need and want, QlikTech collects site-visitation statistics using cookies. If you choose to not have your browser accept cookies from the QlikTech site, you will be able to view our sites, however, you will not experience a personalized visit, nor will you be able to subscribe to the service offerings on the site.
Data Integrity
Personal information must be relevant for the purposes for which it is to be used. Personal information will not be processed in a way that is incompatible with the purposes for which it has been collected or subsequently authorized by the individual. To the extent necessary for those purposes, reasonable steps shall be taken to help ensure that the personal information is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete and current. Reasonable steps shall also be taken to accommodate privacy preferences, such as restricting access to the personal information to those who have a legitimate business need to know the information, anonymizing certain information, or assigning codes or pseudonyms when the actual names are not required for the purpose at hand.
Access
QlikTech will provide individuals with access to their personal information and the ability to correct, amend or delete that information when it is inaccurate, except where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to the individual’s privacy in question, or where the rights of persons other than the individual would be violated. Access may be limited or denied when granting such access would prejudice security investigations or grievance proceedings or prejudice the confidentiality that may be necessary for limited periods in connection with succession planning or corporate re-organizations. If an individual becomes aware that the information QlikTech maintains on him or her is inaccurate, the individual may contact the individuals listed in the Enforcement section of this Policy.
Enforcement

- That QlikTech’s published Policy is accurate, comprehensive, prominently displayed, completely implemented and accessible;
- That the Policy conforms to accepted Privacy Principles;
- That individuals are informed of any in-house arrangements for handling complaints and of the mechanisms through which they may pursue complaints;
- That QlikTech has in place procedures for training employees in its implementation and disciplining them for failure to follow it; and
