How this site understands its visitors
MBTEK runs apollohome.ai. This page covers our contact form and the visitor detector, a tool we run ourselves to understand how the site is used and which organisations visit it, so we can follow up with businesses that may be interested in APOLLO. For our store, orders and everything else, see MBTEK's privacy policy.
Your choice
You can opt out at any time, here or with the link apollohome.ai/?vd_optout=1.
What it records
For each visit: the pages you view (including campaign tags in the link) and for how long, the page that referred you, your browser's identification string (which names the browser, its version and your operating system), an approximate location (country, region and city) worked out from your network address, and whether your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal. It keeps a random identifier in your browser so that it can recognise a return visit. It never reads what you type into forms, search boxes or chat.
When you use the contact form
We receive your name, email, phone number if you give it, your role and your message, and use these details only to reply to you.
Your network address, and which organisation it belongs to
Your network address (IP address) is used to look up which organisation the network you're on is registered to, in the public internet registries (such as ARIN and RIPE NCC) and in public reverse DNS. If you visit from your employer's own network, we may see that organisation's name and web domain. Visits from home internet providers, mobile networks and cloud services are not linked to any organisation. This lookup doesn't identify you personally.
When you tell us who you are (visitors in the United States)
If you open a link from an email we sent you, the link carries a private code that connects the name and email address we sent it to with your browser's identifier, and so with the pages you viewed before and after. The code works for the first browser that opens it, so if you forward one of our emails, it may connect the person you forwarded it to. We keep a record of each such connection: when it happened, how, and your network address and browser at that moment. We do this only for visits from the United States, never when your browser sends Global Privacy Control, and never after you opt out.
Visitors in Canada, the EU and EEA, the UK, Switzerland and Morocco, and visitors whose location we can't tell
A banner asks for your consent first. Until you answer, the detector stores nothing on your device and sends nothing about your visit; it only asks our server whether your location needs consent (like any web request, that question carries your network address and browser string, which we don't record). If you decline, it remembers your answer, and nothing else, so that it doesn't ask again. If you accept, we keep only a shortened form of your network address (for example 81.2.69.0 instead of 81.2.69.142), enough to identify the network but not your device, and we never connect your visits to your name or email. You can withdraw your consent at any time by opting out.
Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we still count the pages you view, but we don't keep your network address, browser string, region or city, and we don't look up which organisation you belong to.
Opting out
Opting out erases, for your browser's identifier: the network addresses, the organisation information, the campaign tags and other parameters in the links you visited, the referring pages, your region and city, your browser string, and any connection to your name and email (with the records of how it was made). If no other browser of yours is still connected, we also delete your name, email and email-link codes from the detector. What remains is an anonymous count of the pages viewed, with their times, your country and device type. The detector then forgets its identifier and stops recording your visits on this site. Opting out applies to the browser you use; to opt back in, use the button above. If your browser blocks the detector, nothing is recorded at all.
How long we keep it
Visit records, and records of how a visit was connected to a name, are deleted automatically 13 months after the visit, along with names and emails nothing is left for. The registry lookups (which keep the address each lookup was made for) are deleted after 30 days, and email-link codes when they expire, 90 days after we create them. Like any website, our hosting providers' request logs may hold your network address for a short time, under their own retention rules.
Where it's kept
The detector's records are stored in the United States, by Vercel Inc. (hosting) and Neon (database, through Vercel), and may be accessed by MBTEK's team from outside the United States. They are used only by MBTEK, and we don't sell them or share them with advertisers or data brokers.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the information we hold about your visits, to withdraw consent, and to object to its use. Contact us at info@mbtek.com, call 1-888-301-0737, or write to MBTEK, 113 Tamarack Way, Fort McMurray, AB T9K 1A2, Canada.
