Our website uses the LinkedIn Insight Tag, a tool provided by LinkedIn.

The LinkedIn Insight Tag is a piece of JavaScript code that we added to our website to enable in-depth campaign reporting and professional insights about our audiences. We also use the LinkedIn Insight Tag to track conversions, retarget website visitors, and learn aggregate insights about categories of members interacting with our ads.

The LinkedIn Insight Tag enables the collection of data regarding members' visits to our website, including the URL, referrer, IP address, device and browser characteristics (User Agent), and timestamp. The IP addresses are truncated or hashed (when used for reaching members across devices), and members' direct identifiers are removed within seven days in order to make the data pseudonymous. This remaining pseudonymised data is then deleted within 180 days.

LinkedIn does not share the personal data of members with us; LinkedIn only provides reports and alerts (which do not identify members) about the professional makeup of our website audience and ad performance.
