Cookie Policy

Last Updated: April 15, 2025

This Cookie Policy (“Cookie Policy”) describes how Spectrum Equity Management, L.P. and its affiliates (referred to collectively in this Policy as “we,” “us,” and “our”) use cookies on our website at www.spectrumequity.com and our other websites that we operate which link to this Cookie Policy (the “Site”).

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies.

What is a cookie and why do we use them?

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that is stored on your browser or the hard drive of your computer or device at the request of a website. We use a cookie which assigns a unique numerical identifier to your web browser and may enable us to recognize you as the same user who was at our Site in the past and relate your use of the Site to other information about you, such as your Site usage information and personal information.

Cookies may also be used to enhance your experience on the Site or to collect general usage and statistical information and detect and prevent fraud. Most browsers can be set to detect cookies and give you an opportunity to reject them, but refusing cookies may, in some cases, inhibit or preclude your use of the Site or its features.

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” (DNT) signals to websites with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they even are aware of them. We currently do not change our tracking practices in response to DNT settings in your web browser. For more information about Do Not Track, please visit www.allaboutdnt.com.

Some web browsers or other technologies may also broadcast the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal to indicate a user’s request to opt-out of data collection practices by websites that involve “selling” data or “sharing” data for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising under certain United States privacy laws. As of the date of this Cookie Policy, we do not “sell” or “share” personal information within the meaning of those laws, so we currently do not change our tracking practices in response to users broadcasting the GPC signal. For more information about the GPC signal, please visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org.
