Cookies & Log Files
Like most web sites, TimedRight uses cookies and web log files to monitor site usage and measure user traffic on the Website. We use this formation to maintain and improve Website performance. A cookie is a tiny data file which resides on your computer which allows TimedRight to recognize you as a user when you return to the Website using the same computer and web browser. If you prefer, you can reset your browser either to notify you when you have received a cookie, or to refuse to accept cookies. If your browser settings do not allow cookies, some elements of our website will not function correctly. Like the information you enter at registration or in your Profile, cookie and log file data is used to customize your experience on the web site. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies.
A cookie is a small data file containing a unique identification number that is transferred through your browser from a web site to your computer. The cookie identifies your browser and will not let a website know any personal information about you, such as your name and address. Since cookies are only data files, they cannot run on your computer, search your computer for other information or transmit any information to anyone.
One type of cookie, known as a “persistent” cookie, is set once you’ve logged in to your TimedRight account. The next time you visit the Website, the persistent cookie will allow us to recognize you as an existing user so you may not need to log in before using the Services. In order to access or change any of your private information, however, you must log in securely again with your password even if your computer contains your persistent cookie. Additionally, if you log out of the Website you will need to re-enter your password the next time you visit in order to log in to your account. Another type of cookie, called a “session” cookie, is used to identify a particular visit to the Website. Session cookies expire after a short time or when you close your web browser.
Due to the communications standards on the Internet, when you visit the Website we automatically receive the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going to when you leave the Website. We also receive the Internet protocol (IP) address of your computer (or the proxy server you use to access the World Wide Web), your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, as well as the name of your ISP. This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve the Services. The linkage between your IP address and your personally identifiable information is never shared with third-parties without your permission or except when required by law.
Web Beacons
A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor your journey around a single website or collection of websites. They are commonly used by sites that hire third-party services to monitor traffic. They may be used in association with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content on the pages of a web site.
TimedRight does NOT use personally identifiable information to target ads. TimedRight may “target” some ads to users that fit a certain general profile – for example, “product managers in Texas.” TimedRight may include a web beacon within pages served by TimedRight. This will provide TimedRight to ability to collect anonymized and aggregated data for auditing, research, and reporting.
We may allow other companies to serve news, promotional information, surveys, advertisements, and other communications to users of the Website and the Services. These companies may include, but is not limited to, third party ad servers, agencies, ad technology vendors, research firms, education providers. As your web browser must request these news, promotional information, surveys, advertisements, and other communications pages, inclusive of a web beacon, from one of these companies servers, these companies can view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.
These general targets may also be used by ad networks to display targeted ads on other websites as a substitute for random, irrelevant ads. You will never see additional ads as a result of being a TimedRight user of the Website and the Services and TimedRight never provides personally identifiable information to any advertiser nor any third party.

We ask that minors (under the age of 18) do not submit any personal information to us or use the service.
