the legitimate interests we have specified in Section 2.1 above.

Where we use your information for our legitimate interests, we make sure that we
take into account any potential impact that such use may have on you. Our
legitimate interests don't automatically override yours, and we won't use your

any concerns about our processing, please refer to the details of your rights in
Section 6 below.


2.3 CROSS-DEVICE TRACKING

Your browsing activity may be tracked across different websites and different
devices or apps. For example, we may attempt to match your browsing activity on
your mobile device with your browsing activity on your laptop to efficiently
serve content to you if you're a logged-in user or, in the case of non-logged-in
users, to increase the accuracy of site usage analytics. To do this, our
technology service providers may share data, such as your browsing patterns and
device identifiers, and will match the information of the browser and devices
that appear to be used by the same person.


2.4 BUSINESS-TO-BUSINESS ACCOUNTS

You may be receiving access to our O'Reilly learning platform service pursuant
to a business-to-business ("B2B") contract in place between us and your
employer. Some of our B2B customers are subject to laws and regulations such as
GDPR which require them to execute a data processing addendum or other kinds of
stipulations regarding privacy and personal data protection with us. To the
extent that your employer has executed a data processing addendum with O'Reilly,
the following terms apply to our processing of your personal information in
relation to a B2B account:

 * We act as data processors for the personal information that we receive from
   your employer. This is the personal information that we require in order to
   create a user account for you under our B2B contract with your employer. As
   data processors, we only process this personal information in accordance with
   the instructions provided to us by your employer, who, as data controller, is
   solely responsible for determining the purposes for which we may process your
   personal information.
 * We act as data controllers for any personal information we collect in
   relation to your usage of the O'Reilly learning platform ("B2B Usage Data"),
   such as the content you have accessed, as well as for any additional personal
   information you choose to share with us. Our policies in relation to our
   collection and processing of your personal information as data controllers
   are covered by this Privacy Policy.

Please note that B2B Usage Data may be made visible, shared, or otherwise
disclosed to your employer. When we make B2B Usage Data available to your
employer, we do so based on the fact that your employer administers your account
and that it has a legitimate interest in understanding and optimizing your usage
of the O'Reilly learning platform. Your employer's processing of B2B Usage Data
is governed by your employer's privacy policy. Please contact your employer if
you have any questions or concerns in relation to your employer's use of B2B
Usage Data.

Please note that this section may also apply in circumstances where you are
obtaining access to the O'Reilly learning platform as an authorized user under a
B2B account that is administered by an entity that is not your employer (for
example, an organization for which you act as a contractor or as an agent).

Please note that your employer and O'Reilly may have executed legal terms,
including ad hoc terms relating to the processing of your personal information,
which deviate from the representations made under this section. If you have any
questions relating to the stipulations between O'Reilly and your employer with
respect to the processing of your personal information, please reach out to us
using the contact information under the "Contact Us" section above, or reach out
to your employer directly.

4. HOW WE LOOK AFTER YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND HOW LONG WE KEEP IT


4.1 SECURITY

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the
security, confidentiality, and integrity of personal information against loss,
misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. We also
operate a policy of "privacy by design" by looking for opportunities to minimize
the amount of personal information we hold about you.

The safeguards we use include:

 * Ensuring the physical security of our offices, warehouses, or other sites
 * Ensuring the physical and digital security of our equipment and devices by
   using appropriate password protection and encryption
 * Using standard security protocols and mechanisms, such as Secure Sockets
   Layer (SSL) encryption, to transmit sensitive data such as credit card
   details
 * Maintaining a data protection policy for and delivering data protection
   training to our employees
 * Limiting access to your personal information to those who need to use it in
   the course of their work

If you have any questions about the security of your personal information,
please contact us using the methods outlined in the "Contact Us" section above.


4.2 RETENTION

We will keep your information for as long as is necessary to provide you with
the services that you have requested from us or for as long as we reasonably
require to retain the information for our lawful business purposes, such as for
the purposes of exercising our legal rights or where we are permitted to do so.
We operate a data retention policy and look to find ways to reduce the amount of
information we hold about you and the length of time that we need to keep it.

Please contact us using the methods outlined in the "Contact Us" section above
if you would like to obtain details of our retention periods for different
aspects of your personal information.


4.3 HELP KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE

You can also play a part in keeping your information safe by:

 * Choosing a strong account password, changing it regularly, and using
   different passwords for different online accounts.
 * Keeping your login and password details confidential.
 * Logging out of the website and closing the browser each time you have
   finished using it, especially when using a shared computer.
 * Informing us if you know or suspect that your account has been compromised or
   if someone has accessed your account without your permission.
 * Keeping your devices protected by using the latest version of your operating
   system and maintaining any necessary antivirus software.
 * Being vigilant against fraudulent emails that may appear to be from us. Any
   emails that we send will come from an email address ending in either
   @oreilly.com (O'Reilly US), @mail.oreilly.com.cn (O'Reilly China),
   @oreilly.co.uk (O'Reilly UK), @oreilly.co.jp (O'Reilly Japan), or
   @safaribooksonline.com or @e.safaribooksonline.com (Safari Books).


5. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF YOUR INFORMATION

O'Reilly and Safari are both based in the United States of America.


5.1 PRIVACY SHIELD CERTIFICATION

We recognize that both Privacy Shield Frameworks are no longer recognized as a
legal means to transfer personal data from the EU and Switzerland to the US.
However, we retain the certification as evidence of our commitment to providing
appropriate safeguards.

O'Reilly Media, Inc. and Safari Books Online, LLC (and entities and subsidiaries
that are, or may become, covered by O'Reilly or Safari's Privacy Shield
certification) participate in and have certified their compliance with the EU-US
Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework (collectively
the "Privacy Shield Framework"). O'Reilly and Safari are committed to subjecting
all personal information received from the European Economic Area, United
Kingdom, and Switzerland ("Privacy Shield Covered Data"), respectively, in
reliance on each Privacy Shield Framework, to the Framework's applicable
Principles of Notice, Choice, Accountability for Onward Transfer, Security, Data
Integrity and Purpose Limitation, Access, and Recourse, and Enforcement and
Liability, including the 16 supplemental principles described in each Privacy
Shield Framework (collectively, the "Privacy Shield Principles"). O'Reilly and
Safari have each certified to the US Department of Commerce that it adheres to
the Privacy Shield Principles. To learn more about the Privacy Shield Framework
and to view O'Reilly and Safari's certifications, please visit the US Department
of Commerce's Privacy Shield List, available at https://www.privacyshield.gov.
If there is any conflict between the terms in this Policy and the Privacy Shield
Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. Additionally, O'Reilly
and Safari may protect your data through other legally valid methods, including
international data transfer agreements.

Under the Privacy Shield Framework, O'Reilly and Safari collect, use, and
disclose Privacy Shield Covered Data for the purposes described in this Policy.
Under the Privacy Shield Framework, as described in Section 6 below, you may
inquire as to whether O'Reilly and/or Safari is processing personal information
about you, request access to personal information, and ask that we correct,
amend, or delete your personal information where it is inaccurate or has been
processed in violation of the Privacy Shield Principles. O'Reilly and Safari are
responsible for the processing of personal information each receives, under each
Privacy Shield Framework, and subsequently transfers to a third party acting as
an agent on its behalf. Privacy Shield requires that O'Reilly and Safari remain
liable should its third parties process personal information in a manner
inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles. O'Reilly and Safari comply with
the Privacy Shield Principles for all onward transfers of personal data from the
European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, including the onward
transfer liability provisions.

With respect to Privacy Shield Covered Data received or transferred pursuant to
the Privacy Shield Framework, O'Reilly and Safari are subject to the
investigatory and enforcement powers of the US Federal Trade Commission (the
"FTC"). The FTC has jurisdiction over O'Reilly and Safari's compliance with the
Privacy Shield Framework. In certain situations, we may be required to disclose
personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities,
including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

If you are an EU or Swiss citizen and feel that we are not abiding by the terms
of this Privacy Policy or that we are not in compliance with the Privacy Shield
Principles, please contact us by using the contact information provided at the
top of this Privacy Policy.

Under certain conditions, more fully described on the Privacy Shield website
https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=How-to-Submit-a-Complaint, you may be
entitled to invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures
have been exhausted. For additional information, see
https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=ANNEX-I-introduction.

If you are not satisfied with our response, O'Reilly and Safari further commit
to cooperate with the EU data protection authorities (DPAs) and the Swiss
Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) with regard to the
investigation and resolution of unresolved Privacy Shield complaints concerning
data transferred from the EU and Switzerland to the United States.


5.2 SPECIAL NOTE TO USERS OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES

We transact business throughout the world and have operations, processes, and
systems that cross borders. Our offices are located in the United States, the
United Kingdom, China, and Japan, and our servers are located in the United
States, the United Kingdom, Belgium, China, and Japan. We transfer your personal
information within the O'Reilly and Safari group of companies in the United
States and to affiliates, joint venture partners, and third-party service
providers around the world.

If you reside in the European Union, please be advised that your personal
information will be processed outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). We
will take all steps necessary to ensure that your information is adequately
protected and processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy, including but
not limited to:

 * Only transferring your personal information to countries that have been
   deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal information by
   the European Commission.
 * Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts
   approved by the European Commission, which give personal information the same
   protection it has in Europe (the so-called European Commission's Standard
   Contractual Clauses).

We may transfer your personal information to countries in the following regions
outside of the EEA: North America and Asia. Please contact us using the contact
details in this Privacy Policy if you want further information on the specific
mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of the EEA.

6.3 WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU TO PROCESS YOUR REQUESTS
