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, 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

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.

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.

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 share this information with advertisers or use
it to better understand your interests. For example, advertising cookies may
be used to share data with advertisers so that the ads you see are more
relevant to you. 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.
While Red Hat websites at this time generally do not recognize automated browser
signals regarding tracking mechanisms, such as "do not track" instructions, you
can generally express your privacy preferences regarding the use of most cookies
and similar technology through your web browser.
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.

data online at any time. You may log in and make changes to your information,

your personalization settings. If necessary, you may also contact us via our
Feedback Form and describe the changes you want made to the information you have
previously provided. However, note that changing or deleting information
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."
When you exercise your privacy rights, such as those conferred by the GDPR,
LGPD, CCPA or PIPL, you have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment by
Red Hat for the exercise of such privacy rights.

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 GDPR, LGPD, CCPA, PIPL or
similar 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.
