1. ABOUT ARTHUR

Whether you are putting your first AI model into production or have hundreds running your business, proper monitoring is essential for effective implementation.

This Policy applies to all Arthur products, services, and websites (collectively the “Service”). This Policy describes how Arthur collects, uses and discloses the information it collects via the Service. In some instances, our Service may be accessible via a third-party website, including that of an Authorized Entity (defined below). This Policy does not apply to how a third party or an Authorized Entity collects, uses, or discloses any information related to Service users.

By using the Service, you acknowledge that Arthur will handle your personal information as described in this Policy. Your use of our Service, and any dispute over privacy, is subject to this Policy and our Terms of Service at https://www.arthur.ai/terms, which may from time to time be amended.

  • Contact information and common identifiers: Such as name, address, and email address;
  • Login details: Including username and password;
  • Employment details (depending on the offering): Including information about a user’s employment and company details;

Where additional data is collected for a specific course, we will provide further details in our contractual terms.

Arthur surveys may ask questions based on race, ethnicity, sexual preference. This information is considered a special category under the General Data Protection Regulation; therefore we will only collect it where you choose to provide this information and consent to us receiving it – the questions are always optional. When we receive the surveys, we take steps to fully anonymize it and will only share responses on a fully anonymized and aggregated basis.

Information We Collect Automatically

We collect information automatically about users via a variety of methods, such as cookies, web beacons, JavaScript, and log files. This information may include user IP addresses, browser types, domain names, device type, time stamp, referring URL and other log file information; user activities within the Service; aggregate and statistical information regarding overall server/visitor traffic and navigation patterns for the Service. Web servers collect this type of basic information automatically as part of Web log processes. For more information, see the “How We Use Cookies and Analytics” section below.

  • Contact Information: first name, last name, email address, phone number;
  • Job Details: job title and a note of which industry you are in;
  • Communications preferences.

Information Obtained from Third Parties/Public Sources:

We use third party service providers to enhance and enrich our marketing database of business professionals who have requested further information on our products. They may use information that is made public by you for example via LinkedIn.

3. HOW WE USE PERSONAL INFORMATION

Arthur generally uses the information we collect as follows:

  1. To provide the Service directly.

  3. To troubleshoot any technical issues you might experience while using our Service.
  4. Where you are a business professional, to send you communications services and other information we think may interest you where you have requested a demo and with additional information where we have appropriate permissions. We may also enrich our marketing database using publicly available information to tailor our communications and ensure these are relevant to your industry and of interest to you.

4. SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES

We share the information we collect as follows:

Authorized Entities. If you access the Service through, or are granted access to the Service by an employer, or other organization (an “Authorized Entity”), we will share the information we collect about you with the Authorized Entity or its representatives. Such information may include, but will not be limited to: email address; user ID/identifying tag or username (if applicable); additional aggregated data the Authorized Entity requests.

Legal Disclosures. We may disclose a Service user’s information (including personal information) where we believe that we are required to do so in order to comply with an applicable statute, regulation, rule or law, a subpoena, a warrant or administrative request, a court or regulatory order, or other valid legal processes. We may also disclose personal information where we believe it is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating the Terms of Service for our Service, to detect fraud, for assistance with a delinquent account, as evidence in litigation in which we are involved, or to protect the safety and/or security of our users, the Service or the general public.

Service Providers. We may employ independent contractors, vendors and suppliers to provide specific services related to the Service, such as hosting and maintaining the Service, providing credit card processing and fraud screening, and developing applications for the Service, email services and marketing enrichment services.

Business Transfers. We reserve the right to transfer information (including personal information) to a third party in the event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Arthur or any of its Affiliates (including as part of a bankruptcy proceeding). We may disclose personal information about Service users to our affiliated companies. Our affiliates’ use of your personal information will be in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

International Transfers. Arthur is a U.S. company and the information we collect will be transferred to, stored and processed in the U.S., as well as other international locations where we have affiliates and service providers. The U.S. and other jurisdictions to where we transfer your information may not offer an equivalent level of data protection as in your home country. As a result, where the personal information that we collect through or in connection with the Service is processed in the United States or collected directly by Arthur in the U.S., we will take steps to ensure that the information receives the same level of protection as if it remained within your home country. If you are a Data Subject in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you have a right to receive details of those steps where your data is transferred outside the European Union or United Kingdom, (e.g. to request a copy where the safeguard is documented, for example the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission - and we will implement additional measures if required to ensure that there is adequate protection of your data).

Aggregate and De-Identified Information. We may also provide aggregate, anonymous or de-identified information about users and the Service for marketing and research purposes. For example, we might inform third parties regarding the number of unique users who visit the Service, the demographic breakdown of our registered users of the Service, and the educational progress of categories of users.

5. HOW WE USE COOKIES AND ANALYTICS

We use cookies and other tracking mechanisms to track information about your use of our Service.

Cookies. We use cookies to track visitor activity on our platform. A cookie is a text file that a website transfers to your computer’s hard drive for record-keeping purposes. We, and our service providers, use cookies to track user activities on our Service, such as the pages visited and time spent on our Service. Most browsers allow users to refuse cookies. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, many of our Services will not function properly with cookies disabled.

Do-Not-Track Signals. Our platform does not recognize “do-not-track” requests; however, we do not track your activities after you leave our platform.

Local Shared Objects. We may use local shared objects (“LSOs”), such as Flash LSOs to store your preferences and to personalize your visit. LSOs are different from browser cookies because of the amount and type of data stored. Typically, you cannot control, delete, or disable LSOs through your web browser. For more information or to learn how to manage your Flash LSO settings, go to the Adobe Flash Player Help Page, choose “Global Storage Settings Panel” and follow the instructions.

Clear GIFs, pixel tags and other technologies. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages and cannot be disabled through your browser. We may use clear GIFs (a.k.a. web beacons, web bugs or pixel tags), in connection with our Service to, among other things, track the activities of users, help us manage content, and compile statistics about usage. We, and our service providers may also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to our customers to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.

Third-Party Analytics. We use Google Analytics to evaluate usage of our Service. We use this tool to help us improve our services, performance, and user experiences. This entity may use cookies and other tracking technologies to perform their services. To learn more about Google’s privacy practices, please review the Google privacy policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent their data from being used by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

6. HOW WE LINK AND INTERACT WITH OTHER WEBSITES

Our Service may contain links to other websites not owned or operated by Arthur, and may provide Service users with access to other websites and services. This may include providing users with the ability to share and automatically post updates (including updates about badges and prizes received in connection with the Service) through social media outlets, such as Facebook and Twitter. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such third-party websites or services and any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Policy. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of each and every website you visit.

7. HOW WE PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

Arthur implements reasonable and appropriate physical, administrative and technical safeguards to help us protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use and disclosure, and to maintain accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of your information. Where appropriate, these safeguards include encryption. However, no data transmissions over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. We believe that we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect online.

Public Area and User Generated Content. The Service may feature various community areas, open text areas, and other public forums (the “Public Areas“) where users can share information or post questions for others to answer. These Public Areas are open to the public and should not be considered private. We cannot prevent such information from being used in a manner that may violate this Privacy Policy, the law, or your personal privacy. We are not responsible for the results of such postings or for the accuracy of any information contained in those postings.

You should think carefully before posting any information in any Public Area. What you post can be seen, disclosed to or collected by others and may be used by others in ways we cannot control or predict. As with any public forum on any website, the information you post may also show up in third-party search engines like Google.

8. INFORMATION FOR INDIVIDUALS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND EUROPEAN UNION

  • when we are carrying out marketing activities to business professionals and conducting profiling activities to ensure our marketing is relevant; and
  • where we issue surveys and/or assessments and otherwise undertake data analytics to ensure we can improve our Services.

Where we act as a controller, data protection laws require us to have a legal basis to do so. The following legal basis pertains to our collection and processing of data in the capacity of a controller:
