Information Collected

Lutron’s primary goal in collecting information is to provide you with a superior customized online experience, and outstanding Apps and customer service.

When you visit Lutron web sites or license Lutron Apps, you may provide us with the following types of information: (1) web site, App and email use information collected as you and other people browse, download and use our web sites and Apps or respond to Lutron initiated email (example: type of web browser and operating system used to access the Lutron web site or App), (2) information you knowingly and voluntarily choose to disclose to Lutron that we collect on an individual basis (example: completing an online form requesting product literature or inputting your name, address, email, project management information, etc. or that of your customer/client), and (3) information about your device (example: internet protocol (IP) address, MAC address, and geolocation of your device). For supplemental information about specific data collection utilized within an App, please refer to that App’s End User License Agreement. The web browser you choose to use may have a “do not track” (or similar) option available in the browser’s settings. Lutron does not currently respond to the “do not track” signal on its Websites or online services; Lutron web sites or Apps may utilize 3rd party services (see Usage Reporting, below), you should review with those 3rd parties how they process “do not track” requests.

By using a Lutron web site or App, you allow Lutron to access information as stated above, and to record, compile and use such information in the provision and improvement of the services, features, and functionality available from the web site or App.
