If you do not agree to any of these terms and conditions, you should not use this Website or any InterDigital benefits or services.

2. Cookies and Other Technologies
   As further described in our Cookie Policy, we use various technologies to collect and store information when you use the Website, and this may include sending one or more cookies or anonymous identifiers to your device, including “web beacons”, clear GIFs, pixel tags and other means.  Cookies are text information files that your web browser places on your computer and/or your mobile device when you visit a website.  Pixel tags are not visible to the user of a website and consist of a few lines of computer coding delivered with the web pages accessed.  InterDigital may use such technologies to obtain non-personal information from you as an online visitor.  Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but can be configured not to accept them or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.  You can control cookies by following the directions in your Internet browser’s “help” file and other tools.  You can also opt-out from our use of cookies and similar technologies that track your behavior on the sites of others for third party advertising.  Please note that without cookies, you may not be able to take full advantage of all of the features of the Website.

   When you contact NexStar Partners, we may keep a record of your communication.
   Upon our collection of your personally identifiable information, we may use such personally identifiable information internally, separately or in combination with pre-existing information, for the purposes set forth below.  We will ask for your consent before using information for a purpose other than those that are set out in this Privacy Policy.

   We make no claims that the Website or any of its respective contents are appropriate or may be downloaded or accessed outside of the United States.  If you are visiting this Website from a country outside the United States, you acknowledge and agree that in using this Website, you will transfer personal information about yourself to the United States, that your information will be deemed sent to InterDigital from the United States, that the data protection laws of the United States may not be as comprehensive as those in your own country, and that the transfer of this personal information occurs with your consent and will be treated in accordance with the laws of the United States.  By providing any personal information to us through this Website, all users, including, without limitation, users in the member states of the European Union, fully understand and unambiguously consent to the submission, collection and processing of such information in the United States.

   Data transmitted via the Website may use a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, and data may be encrypted on some pages of the Website.  To the extent such technology is utilized on a given page, you may be unable to use certain account or customization features of the Website unless your web browser software supports such encryption.

   We attempt to keep your files complete, up-to-date, and accurate.  We tell you how and where to conveniently access your personal information and how to notify us about errors.

   • You may use the contact information set forth at the end of this document to contact us for any inquiry or request regarding our privacy policy or the handling of your personal information.

   We reserve the right to deny access to personally identifiable information in your NexStar Partners account (a) when such denial of access is required by law; (b) when granting you access is reasonably likely to negatively impact other people’s privacy; (c) to protect our rights and property; and (d) when such requests are frivolous or made in bad faith.

10. Do Not Track
    InterDigital does not support Do Not Track (“DNT”) with respect to your usage of the Website.  The Website does not have a mechanism to recognize the various web browser DNT signals, in part, because no common industry standard for DNT has been adopted by industry groups, technology companies or regulators.  InterDigital takes privacy and meaningful choice seriously and will make efforts to continue to monitor developments around DNT browsed technology and the implementation of a standard.

11. Payment Services 
    CERTAIN PAYMENT SERVICES FOR THE WEBSITE ARE PROVIDED BY SHOPIFY.  NEXSTAR PARTNERS MAY ENGAGE OTHER THIRD PARTIES TO PROVIDE PAYMENT SERVICES FOR THE WEBSITE IN THE FUTURE.
