INTRODUCTION
At WalkMe (“we”, “us”, “our” or “WalkMe”) we are committed to protecting any data that we collect concerning you when you use or register on our website located at www.walkme.com (the “Site”) or by using our online product known as “WalkMe System” which is available on the Site (the “Software”). Please note that this Privacy Policy applies to the information that we collect through the Site and the Software. It also describes your choices regarding the use, access and correction of your personal information. By using our site or the Software you agree to the use of the data that we collect in accordance with this Privacy Policy, as may be amended.
COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Our primary goals in collecting personal information are to provide you with the products and services made available through the Site, including, but not limited, to the Software, to communicate with you, and to manage your registered user account, if you have one. When you register on our site or use the Software, we ask for information such as your name, company name or affiliation, password, email address and telephone number (your “Personal Information”).
WalkMe also collects the email addresses of people who communicate with WalkMe via email, create accounts or post a public question on the Website forum. When you post content on or through the Site by way of public posts or survey information etc., any Personal Information you post may be viewed by others.
If you decide to buy the Software, WalkMe may collect additional information from you, including but not limited to billing and account information for credit cards, payment cards or other payment systems. WalkMe may share this information with WalkMe’s billing and payment processor(s).
WalkMe does not store credit card or payment card numbers after they have been forwarded to its billing and payment processor(s), unless it is necessary to providing you the Software.
WalkMe may also receive information about you from our business partners with which you have an account, service relationship or transaction history. WalkMe may also receive Personal Information from third parties when you authorize such third parties to authenticate or identify you to WalkMe. This Privacy Policy does not apply to third party practices.
DO NOT TRACK AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
WalkMe and its partners use cookies or similar technologies to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. You can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level, but if you choose to disable cookies, it may limit your use of certain features or functions on our website or Service.
In addition, WalkMe uses cookies for storing users’ settings (e.g. language preference), authentication, and improving the user experience on our website. Users can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level. If you reject cookies, you may still use our website, but your ability to use some features or areas of our website may be limited.
Some web browsers may transmit Do Not Track signals to websites with which the browser communicates, telling the site not to follow its online movements. Because of differences in how web browsers interpret this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they are even aware of them. Therefore, WalkMe’s website currently does respond to such Do Not Track signals.
We partner with a third party to either display advertising on our website or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third party partner may use technologies such as cookies to gather information about your activities on this website and other sites in order to provide you advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you interest-based ads, you may opt-out by clicking here (or if located in the European Union click here). Please note this does not opt you out of being served ads. You will continue to receive generic ads.
