% of holdings sold = shares sold ÷ (shares sold + all holdings the insider reported on that Form 4, direct and through trusts).
Insider type follows Cohen, Malloy & Pomorski (Journal of Finance, 2012). An insider who traded the stock in the same calendar month in each of the past three years is a routine trader; one who traded in each of those years without such a pattern is an opportunistic trader. In their study, trades by opportunistic insiders predicted future returns and trades by routine insiders did not. Counts open-market purchases and sales only (SEC Form 4 codes P and S) by that insider in that company. Not investment advice.

- We control access to and use of our proprietary technology and other confidential information through the use of internal and external measures, including contractual protections with employees, contractors, customers, and partners.
- We further limit the use of our proprietary technology and intellectual property through provisions in our terms of service.
- We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, license agreements, confidentiality procedures, non-disclosure agreements, employee non-disclosure and invention assignment agreements, and other legal and contractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights.

- Our team of security practitioners, in partnership with information technology professionals and product engineers across our company, works to identify and mitigate risks, assess our security measures against industry standards and best practices, and continue to evaluate ways to improve.
Legal & Regulatory Risks (Item 1A, quoted)
- We use open source software in our solutions, which could negatively affect our ability to sell our services or subject us to litigation or other actions.
- Risks Related to Laws, Regulations, and the Global Economy
- We and the third parties with whom we work are subject to rapidly changing and increasingly stringent laws, regulations, contractual obligations, industry standards and other obligations relating to privacy, data security, and the protection of children. The restrictions and costs imposed by these requirements, or our actual or perceived failure to comply with them, could harm our business.
- Regulation of data security programs is creating new and additional audit and operational burdens. Laws such as the Cyber Resilience Act in the EU and audit requirements found in California's CCPA regulations may increase our costs of compliance.
