Like most website operators, ACCENT PROS 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. ACCENT PROS’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how ACCENT PROS’s visitors use its website. From time to time, ACCENT PROS may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
ACCENT PROS also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on ACCENT PROS. ACCENT PROS 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 ACCENT PROS’s websites choose to interact with ACCENT PROS in ways that require ACCENT PROS to gather personally identifying information. The amount and type of information that ACCENT PROS gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a blog at ACCENT PROS to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with ACCENT PROS– by purchasing access to the our services – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, ACCENT PROS collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with ACCENT PROS. ACCENT PROS does not disclose personally identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
ACCENT PROS may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. ACCENT PROS may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, ACCENT PROS does not disclose personally identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally Identifying Information
ACCENT PROS 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 ACCENT PROS’s behalf or to provide services available at ACCENT PROS’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 ACCENT PROS’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. ACCENT PROS 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, ACCENT PROS discloses potentially personally identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when ACCENT PROS believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of ACCENT PROS, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an ACCENT PROS website and have supplied your email address, ACCENT PROS 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 ACCENT PROS 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. ACCENT PROS takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
If ACCENT PROS, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that ACCENT PROS 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 ACCENT PROS may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
