Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. At Avatar4Devs we have a few fundamental principles that we follow:

  • We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
  • We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
  • We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of our site.

 

It is Avatar4Devs’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Avatar4Devs collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Avatar4Devs’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Avatar4Devs’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Avatar4Devs may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Avatar4Devs also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Avatar4Devs only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Avatar4Devs’s websites choose to interact with Avatar4Devs in ways that require Avatar4Devs to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Avatar4Devs gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive Avatar4Devs updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, Avatar4Devs collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Avatar4Devs. Avatar4Devs does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Avatar4Devs may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its websites. For instance, Avatar4Devs may monitor the most popular pages on Avatar4Devs site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam. Avatar4Devs may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Avatar4Devs does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Avatar4Devs discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Avatar4Devs behalf or to provide services available at Avatar4Devs’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Avatar4Devs’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Avatar4Devs will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Avatar4Devs discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Avatar4Devs believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Avatar4Devs, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Avatar4Devs website and have supplied your email address, Avatar4Devs may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Avatar4Devs and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Avatar4Devs takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Avatar4Devs visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Awesome Motive’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Avatar4Devs websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Business Transfers

If Avatar4Devs, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Avatar4Devs goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Avatar4Devs may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer.

This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Avatar4Devs and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Comments

Comments and other content submitted to Akismet anti-spam service are not saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.
