WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We process personal data that originates from three sources: data you give, data we get from different sources, and data gathered consequently.
The first category of personal data, where you give information to us, includes data that you have given through our third-party products or through our client support portal (“JIRA”) or our website, through day to day interaction by phone or email support, and as a visitor or guest to one of our offices. We receive personal data from different sources, including public sources, information from our employees, and information from our clients. We also collect personal data automatically, including when you visit our website or use our IT systems and networks.
When you log in to use JIRA, you provide Amphora with your username and email address. Your login credentials may have been created upon request by you or assigned by Amphora or your own company with whom we may have a direct contractual relationship with.
As a client of Amphora, you might give us personal data during interactions as necessary to support our business relationship. This information normally consists of business contact details and, in relation to vendors or individuals and third parties that are used to assist in product development, troubleshooting, and client support in some cases.

Where permitted, we utilize third party services that perform these online searches for us such as Sales Force. This information normally consists of business contact details.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT AUTOMATICALLY
Cookies. Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to a user’s computer for purposes of storing information about a user’s preferences. Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify users, although they do identify a user’s computer. Many websites use cookies as a standard practice to provide useful features when a user visits the website and most web browsers are set up to accept cookies. Amphora uses cookies to improve your online experience when visiting the website. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, but some portions of a website may not work properly if you refuse cookies. A session cookie is one that exists for the time period that your browser is open. A persistent cookie is one that is saved on your device/computer even after the browser is closed. Like many websites, we may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. Detailed information about our use of cookies can be found in our Cookie Policy here: https://amphora.net/CookiePolicy.
Guests and utilization of Guest Wi-Fi. If you visit one of our offices and utilize our guest Wi-Fi, we automatically collect information about your mobile device, including but not limited to: your IP address and MAC address of said devices and store your online activities. Use of our Wi-Fi is subject to Amphora’s Acceptable Use Policy, which you must accept to connect to our guest Wi-Fi connection.
Web Beacons. Some of the website’s web pages may use web beacons in conjunction with cookies to compile aggregate statistics about website usage. A web beacon is an electronic image (also referred to as an “action tag,” “single-pixel,” or “clear GIF”) that is commonly used to track the traffic patterns of users from one web page to another in order to maximize web traffic flow and to otherwise analyze the effectiveness of the website. Some web beacons may be unusable if you elect to reject their associated cookies.
Response to “Do Not Track” Signals. Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites with which the user communicates, although web browsers incorporate and activate this functionality in different ways, and it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted. There currently is disagreement, including among participants in the leading Internet standards-setting organization, concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals. Amphora currently does not take action in response to these signals, but, if and when a standard is established and accepted, we may reassess how to respond to these signals.
We do not use any of your data for automated decision making (including profiling).
