CookiePolicy
Alion may collect non-personally identifiable information regarding your usage of the Site, including the pages you viewed, time spent using certain features, and aggregate technical signals such as approximate server location and connection speed. Like most online services, we also use cookies, log files, clear GIFs, tracking pixels, web beacons, and other technologies that may collect Personal Data. We follow local laws and best practices when it comes to cookies and other tracking technologies.
We rely on consent for all non-essential cookies (functional, analytics, advertising and social-media cookies) where required by the GDPR, ePrivacy rules, the UK PECR, the CCPA/CPRA and equivalent local laws. You can grant, refuse or withdraw consent at any time via the "Cookie Preferences" control on this Site. Refusing non-essential cookies has no effect on your access to the core information on the Site.
We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles of identified developers, we do not sell or share Personal Data collected via cookies in the meaning of the CCPA/CPRA, and we do not combine cookie-derived data with the publicly available artifacts described in our Privacy Policy.
When you visit the Services, we may send one or more "cookies" - small data files - to your computer to uniquely identify your browser and let Alion help you log in faster and enhance your navigation through the Site. A cookie may convey anonymous information about how you browse the Services to us so we can provide you with a more personalized experience, but does not collect personal information about you.
A persistent cookie remains on your computer after you close your browser so that it can be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Service. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser's directions. A session cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser.
Our Site uses the following types of cookies for the purposes set out below:
- Essential Cookies - essential to provide you with services available through our Site and to enable you to use some of its features, such as logging in to secure areas. Without these cookies, the Services that you have asked for cannot be provided.
- Functionality Cookies - allow our Site to remember choices you make when you use our Site, such as remembering your login details and remembering the changes you make to other parts of our Site which you can customize.
- Analytics and Performance Cookies - used to collect information about traffic to our Site and how users use our Site. The information collected is aggregated and anonymous and helps us operate our Site more efficiently, gather broad demographic information and monitor the level of activity on our Site.
- Targeted and Advertising Cookies - used, only if you opt in, to measure the effectiveness of campaigns that promote the Service itself. They are not used to profile candidates, to score developers or to take any decision about a person.
- Social Media Cookies - used when you share information using a social media sharing button or "like" button on our Site or you link your account or engage with our content on or through a social networking website.

Log Files
Log file information is automatically reported by your browser each time you access a web page. When you use the Services, our servers automatically record certain information your web browser sends whenever you visit any website. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, referring/exit pages and URLs, number of clicks, domain names, landing pages, and pages viewed.
Clear GIFs (Web Beacons)
When you use the Services, we may employ clear GIFs (also known as web beacons or tracking pixels) to anonymously track online usage patterns. No personally identifiable information from your Alion account is collected using these clear GIFs. We do not embed tracking pixels in the single transactional invitation emails described in our Privacy Policy.
Alion may use third-party services to help understand use of the Services. These services typically collect the information sent by your browser as part of a web page request, including cookies and your IP address. They receive this information and their use of it is governed by their respective privacy policies.
We honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as an opt-out of non-essential cookies for users whose browser sends it. We do not currently respond to legacy "Do Not Track" headers; if that changes, we will document the behaviour on this page.
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of this Cookie Policy at any time. Any changes or updates will be effective immediately upon posting to this page. You should review this Cookie Policy regularly for changes.
