13. No Implied Waiver. MTI’s failure or delay in exercising any of its rights hereunder will not constitute a waiver of such rights unless expressly waived in writing.

Data that cannot be associated with you, such as aggregated or de-identified information, is not personal data. Micron commits to keep such information in its de-identified state and will make no efforts to re-identify such data.

    A. Personal Data You Provide.

    • When you interact with us, we collect information in the context of our relationship (e.g., vendor, host, employer, etc.). Providing us with some Personal data may be required in order for you to interact with us. You may be invited to provide additional Personal data to personalize your interactions with us.

    B. Personal Data from Third Parties.

    • If you interact with Micron through a third party or purchase our products from them, we may receive personal data about you from that third party.
    • We may use third party services to supplement, validate or increase the accuracy of personal data we hold about you. For example, we use third parties to validate your mailing address so that we can deliver our products to you more efficiently. We may also collect demographic information from these third parties, or information to enable the marketing automation and personalization tools on our websites, applications and services.
    • The personal data that you share with third parties is not controlled by Micron or covered by our privacy notices until we collect such personal data or associate other information with personal data we already have about you. We encourage you to review third party policies and privacy settings so that you understand how the personal data you share with third parties may be used or shared with others.

    C. Automatically Collected Information. We and our third-party partners may automatically collect usage information when you interact with us, including about your activity on our services. For instance, we and our third-party partners use cookies, beacons, pixels, and other tracking technologies (“Cookies”) to automatically collect technical information, such as URL, cookie data, IP address, device type, unique device IDs, device attributes, network connection type (e.g. WiFi, 3G, LTE, Bluetooth) and provider, network and device performance, browser type, language, and operating system. The Cookies contain information which enable us to identify you so you do not have to re-enter certain information each time you visit our websites (such as your language or location), keep track of which of our webpages you view, your shopping choices, and provide you a better overall website visitor experience. We and our third-party partners may also monitor and record information about the content, products and services you interact with, including the pages and videos you view, the links you click, the content provided through chat, forums and forms, and similar information about your user experience, which help us measure the effectiveness of our websites, further develop our products and services, personalize your interactions with us, and aid in the delivery advertisements.
