As an ASP, we collect information on behalf of our customers. We also collect information on our own website. Our methods for collection and use of information depend on whether the user logs directly onto our website (a “ChatLead, LLC. User”) or accesses our service on one of our customer’s sites (an “ASP User”).

ChatLead uses the persistent cookie to retain a unique ID which helps us to map the user to his previous chats and interactions with us in the secured server. We do not store any personal information in the persistent cookie, but simply use the code stored in it to link with the visitor’s history in the server. This allows the chat support personnel using the ChatLead service to easily identify you and your previous requests, and continue from that point forward in the chat.
