SCOPE OF THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT

Red Hat, Inc. and its affiliated companies and subsidiaries (collectively, “Red
Hat”) respect your privacy. This Privacy Statement applies to personal data
collected by Red Hat through the redhat.com website, and other websites which we
operate and on which we post a direct link to this Privacy Statement. For some
websites managed by Red Hat affiliates, the affiliate may act as a controller
for data collected from the website. This Privacy Statement may not apply to
open source project websites sponsored by Red Hat. Such project websites may
have their own privacy statements, which we encourage you to review. In certain
cases, this Privacy Statement applies to personal data collected by Red Hat when
Red Hat makes this Privacy Statement or a link to the Privacy Statement
available in a digital communication, paper form or in person (for example when
attending an event).

Please also note that co-branded websites (websites where Red Hat presents
content together with one or more of our business partners) may be governed by
additional or different privacy statements. Please refer to the privacy
statement on those websites for more information about applicable privacy
practices.

Red Hat’s obligations with respect to personal data that may be held on behalf
of customers in connection with cloud services Red Hat provides, such as
personal data stored by customers using our OpenShift Online offering, are
defined in our agreements with our customers and are not governed by this
Privacy Statement.

As used in this Privacy Statement, “personal data” means any information that
relates to, is capable of being associated with, describes, or could be linked
to, an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’). An
identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or
indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an
identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more
factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic,
cultural or social identity of that natural person.

THE CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the categories and types of personal
data collected directly from you may include, without limitation:

 * Contact information, including identifiers: Information used to communicate
   with you and verify your identity, such as first and last name, title,
   company name, email address, telephone number, and postal address;
 * Account and commercial information: Information that Red Hat maintains in
   association with your account, such as your account number, username/user ID,
   password, payment information, purchase records, information about your use
   of the product or service, information about your registration or
   participation in a class, exam, certification, training, webcast or other
   event, your preferred language and other preferences, credit and billing
   status and support inquiries; 
 * Professional or employment-related information: Information contained in your
   job inquiries or applications, such as resume, cover letter, age, education,
   professional history and contact details; 
 * Internet or other similar network activity: Information collected when you
   visit a website, such as IP address, browsing history, information on your
   interaction with the website, browser type and language, operating system,
   location, date and time; 
 * Location information: Information about your physical location, such as if
   you provide your postal address or based on your IP address if you visit a
   website; and
 * Inferences: Information drawn from the personal data collected above, such as
   what topics you may be interested in based on the areas of the website you
   visit or what products you may be interested in based on purchase records.

Red Hat generally does not collect sensitive personal data, which is data such
as your religious or philosophical beliefs, racial or ethnic origin, health or
medical information (other than for the purpose of responding to an
accommodation request for an event), genetic or biometric data, bank account
information (other than for the purpose of processing your order) or other
similar sensitive personal data as such term is defined under applicable law.
 If Red Hat reasonably needs to collect any sensitive personal data from you,
Red Hat will obtain your consent for the collection of such personal data as may
be required under applicable law. For California consumers, please see the
California Supplemental Privacy Statement to review the California required
disclosures on sensitive personal information.


HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA (SOURCES OF DATA)

Red Hat collects personal data directly from you and from other categories of
sources as described in more detail below. The categories of personal data
collected directly from you by Red Hat include all of the categories identified
above in “The categories of personal data we collect” section. Red Hat collects
personal data directly from you when you interact with us through our websites,
including, without limitation, when you:

 * Create a user account (individual or corporate);
 * Make online purchases or register products;
 * Request support;
 * Register for or participate in a class, exam, certification, training,
   webcast or other event;
 * Request information or materials (e.g., whitepapers);
 * Participate in surveys or evaluations;
 * Participate in promotions, contests, or giveaways;
 * Apply for employment;
 * Submit questions or comments; or
 * Submit content or posts on our customer portal pages or other interactive
   webpages.

Personal data we collect online may also be combined with personal data you
provide to us through offline channels such as through a call center, during an
interview or in conjunction with a Red Hat event you attend.

We may also collect information indirectly from you relating to your use of our
websites and response to our emails through the use of various technology. The
categories of personal data collected in this manner are what we refer to above
as Internet or other similar network activity and inferences. Collecting
information in this manner allows us to analyze the effectiveness of our
websites and our marketing efforts, personalize your experience and improve our
interactions with you. For more information about the technology we employ for
these purposes, see the “cookies and other technology” section below.

We may also supplement the personal data we collect from you with additional
personal data we receive from third parties, such as your employer, our
customers, and our business partners where you purchase any of our products or
services through such business partners. The categories of personal data we
receive from this type of third party includes account and commercial
information and professional or employment-related information. We do this to
help us improve the overall accuracy of the information and its completeness and
to help us better tailor our interactions with you. 

From time to time, we may collect contact information through other sources,
such as list vendors. When we do so, we ask the vendors to confirm that the
information was legally acquired by the third party and that we have the right
to obtain it from them and use it.

notice and you have consented.

HOW WE DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Red Hat discloses personal data for the following business purposes:

 * Red Hat may disclose personal data to business partners and service providers
   in order to support our business operations, such as (but not limited to)
   fulfilling your orders, following up on requests, providing support and
   assisting Red Hat with sales, marketing and communication initiatives. These
   business partners and service providers include distributors, resellers,
   payment processors, financial service providers and institutions, materials
   production and shipping companies, postal or government authorities, market
   intelligence and consulting service providers, and information technology
   service providers. Business partners and service providers are required by
   contract to keep the information received on behalf of Red Hat confidential
   and secure and not use it for any purpose other than the purpose for which it
   was provided to them.
   * The categories of personal data we may disclose to these third parties
     include: contact information, including identifiers; account and commercial
     information; professional or employment-related information; internet or
     other similar network activity; location information; and inferences.
 * Red Hat may disclose personal data as required by law or legal process, such
   as responding to a duly authorized and lawful request of a police or public
   authority (including to meet national security or law enforcement
   requirements), to enforce or protect the rights of Red Hat, when such
   disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial
   loss as permitted by applicable law, or in connection with an investigation
   of suspected or actual illegal activity.
   * The categories of personal data we may disclose to these third parties
     include: contact information, including identifiers; account and commercial
     information; professional or employment-related information; internet or
     other similar network activity; location information; and inferences.
 * Red Hat may disclose personal data in the context of a business transaction
   involving part or all of Red Hat, such as a merger, acquisition,
   consolidation, or divestiture. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure
   of personal data to prospective or actual purchasers, or the receipt of it
   from sellers. It is Red Hat’s practice to seek appropriate protection for
   information in these types of transactions. Red Hat will inform you of the
   name and the contact information of the receiver of your personal data.
   Following such a business transaction, you may contact the entity to which we
   transferred your personal data with any inquiries concerning the use of that
   information.
   * The categories of personal data we may disclose to these third parties
     include: contact information, including identifiers; account and commercial
     information; professional or employment-related information; internet or
     other similar network activity; location information; and inferences.
 * Red Hat may also disclose personal data to its affiliates and subsidiaries,
   including its parent company, International Business Machines Corporation
   (IBM), for the business purposes described above, and transfer personal data
   to countries where Red Hat and IBM conduct business in accordance with the
   "Data transfers and Data Privacy Frameworks" section of this Privacy
   Statement.
   * The categories of personal data we may disclose to these third parties
     include: contact information, including identifiers; account and commercial
     information; professional or employment-related information; internet or
     other similar network activity; location information; and inferences.

We do not sell personal data as the term sell is commonly understood. Under
certain Data Protection Laws, a “sale” is defined to include disclosures of
personal data to a third party for monetary or valuable consideration.  When you
use Red Hat websites, Red Hat’s authorized partners, such as advertising
networks, data analytics providers, social networks and advertising partners,
may collect cookies and similar technology and use this data (such as your
Internet or other similar network activity) for their own purposes, such as
improving their own services. This activity may qualify as a “sale” under
applicable Data Protection Laws. You can make choices to allow or prevent such
uses (see the Cookies and Other Technology section below on how to manage your
cookie preferences). For California consumers, please see the California
Supplemental Privacy Statement for more information.

COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNOLOGY

When you visit our websites we may automatically collect information such as
your IP address, browsing history, information on your interaction with the
website, browser type and language, operating system, location, date and time
(i.e., the category above referred to as Internet or other similar network
activity). We may also use cookies to collect information as you navigate our
websites. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a
web server and stored on your device. The cookie may be placed by Red Hat or by
an authorized third party. We use both session-based and persistent cookies on
our websites. Session-based cookies exist during a single session and disappear
when you close your browser or turn off your device. Persistent cookies remain
on your device even after you close your browser or turn off your device.

Red Hat categorizes the cookies on our websites into three categories: Required,
Functional and Advertising cookies.

 * Required Cookies. Required cookies are necessary to enable the basic features
   of the website to function. Red Hat uses some cookies that are required for
   the delivery of services on our websites. Cookies that are required allow us
   to maintain and improve the safety and security of our websites, authenticate
   account users, allow you to access your private accounts on our websites,
   allow you to sign into different portions of our websites with the use of
   only one login, balance the traffic on our websites, and remember items in
   your shopping cart. Cookies that are required are not used for marketing
   purposes.
 * Functional Cookies. Functional cookies allow us to analyze your use of the
   website to evaluate and improve our performance. Red Hat also uses functional
   cookies to improve our service to you and personalize your web browsing
   experience, such as by gaining a better understanding of your interests and
   requirements regarding our websites, our business or our products and
   services. Cookies that Red Hat uses to improve our services and your website
   experience may remember your language and site preferences, invite you to
   participate in surveys or evaluations, show you when you are logged into our
   system and allow you to remain logged-in for a period of time, help provide
   you with support services, remember your login information, and prepopulate
   forms that you have already completed. Red Hat also uses cookies that collect
   information about how you use our websites, including which pages you visit,
   and whether you experience any errors. These cookies use aggregate
   information to provide statistics on how our websites are used, help us
   improve our websites by measuring errors, testing different designs on our
   websites, and helping us measure the traffic on our websites so that we can
   optimize our content accordingly. These cookies are used to help us improve
   how our websites work, understand what interests our users, and measure
   website quality and the effectiveness of our online advertising.
 * Advertising Cookies. Advertising cookies are used to show you ads that are
   more relevant to you. We may disclose this information to advertisers or use
   it to better understand your interests. For example, advertising cookies may
   be used to disclose data to advertisers so that the ads you see are more
   relevant to you (e.g., targeted ads). In addition, we may use remarketing
   technology to advertise on other websites you may visit. In doing so, a third
   party may place or read a unique ad-serving cookie on your device and use
   technical information about your browser and your activity at a Red Hat
   website to serve advertisements to you on non-Red Hat websites.

If you do not want your information to be stored by cookies, you can manage your
cookie preferences by using the options and tools made available to you by
either your web browser or Red Hat. You can configure your browser so that it
always rejects these cookies or asks you each time whether you want to accept
them or not. Your browser documentation includes instructions explaining how to
enable, disable or delete cookies at the browser level (usually located within
the “Help”, “Tools” or “Edit” facility). If a cookie manager has been
implemented by Red Hat on the website you are visiting, the cookie tool will be
displayed on the website during your visit (e.g., click the “Cookie Preferences”
or similar link at the bottom of the website). You can use the cookie manager to
set your cookie preference and to see a list of the cookies used on the Red Hat
website. The cookie manager also provides information on the specific cookies
used and the classification of the cookie (i.e., Required, Functional or
Advertising). Whether you utilize the cookie manager or manage cookies at the
individual browser level, please remember that Required cookies will remain and
cannot be turned off. Please also understand that choosing to reject cookies may
reduce the performance and functionality of our websites.

Red Hat also uses web beacons alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile
information about usage of our websites and interaction with emails from Red Hat
(e.g., open rates, click through rates). Web beacons are clear electronic images
that can recognize certain types of information on your device, such as cookies,
when you viewed a particular website tied to the web beacon, and a description
of a website tied to the web beacon. For example, Red Hat may place web beacons
in marketing emails that notify Red Hat when you click on a link in the email
that directs you to one of our websites. Red Hat uses web beacons to operate and
improve our websites and email communications.

necessary for Red Hat to assist with support, services, and purchases may result
in a delay or interruption in processing your requests.

You will be given an opportunity to tell us whether you would like to receive
information, special offers, and promotional materials by email from Red Hat or
our business partners when you create a redhat.com account, when you register
for a service, when you provide us with your personal data, or when we send you
a marketing email. Where required by applicable law, we will obtain adequate
consent to provide you with these marketing materials. You also have the ability
to opt out of receiving marketing emails from Red Hat at any time without cost
by clicking on the relevant link contained in our marketing emails or by
contacting us via our Feedback Form. You can also exercise your rights and
choices by contacting us as described below under “How to contact us.”

VERIFICATION

Before responding to a request for information about your personal data, we must
verify the request. Verification is important to protect your information and to
help confirm that we are responding to a valid request and providing the
response to the correct individual. To verify the request we initially ask for
at least two (2) or three (3) identifiers, such as name, email address and
location. If we have a need to request additional identifiers to reasonably
verify your identity, we will contact you and request additional verification.
The information we ask to verify your identity may depend on your relationship
with us.

When you exercise your privacy rights under the applicable Data Protection Laws,
you can designate an authorized agent or representative to make a request on
your behalf by providing the authorized agent with written permission to do so
and verifying your identity with us as part of the request, or by providing the
authorized agent with Power of Attorney pursuant to applicable law (e.g., the
California Probate code). We will ask the individual submitting the request to
denote that they are an authorized agent or representative. When submitted by an
authorized agent or representative, we ask the authorized agent or
representative to provide name, email address and a description of the
relationship with the individual who is the subject of the request and to
certify that the representative has permission to submit the request, and may
request proof of the consumer’s written permission.

information over the Internet. We also require that our business partners and
service providers protect such information from unauthorized access, use and
disclosure.
