BRUDERER
considers privacy an important issue, so we build and operate
our web services with the protection of privacy taken into
account. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal
information we gather when you use one of BRUDERER’s web sites
and some of the steps we take to safeguard it.
These principles
apply to personally identifying information we ask for and that
you provide. By this we mean information that individually
identifies you, such as your name, physical address, e-mail
address or other contact details.
Data collection
Browsing of our
web sites and most other services do not require any personally
identifying information.
BRUDERER may
collect limited non-personally identifying information your
browser makes available whenever you visit a website. This log
information includes your internet protocol address, browser
type, browser language, the date and time of your query and one
or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser. We use
this information to better understand users’ behaviour and to
further improve our offerings.
Some of our
services require you to register for an account, e.g. for the
access into the forum. BRUDERER asks you for some personal
information in order to create an account and we will use that
information to provide the service.
When we require
personally identifying information, we will inform you about the
types of information we collect and how we use it. We hope this
will help you make an informed decision about sharing your
personal information with us. It is then up to you to decide if
you want to provide the information or not.
Cookies
Upon your first
visit to a BRUDERER web site, a cookie is sent to your computer
that uniquely identifies your browser. A "cookie" is a small
file containing a string of characters that is sent to your
computer when you visit a website. We use cookies to improve the
quality of our service and to better understand how people use
our sites. We do this by storing user preferences in cookies and
by tracking user trends and patterns of how people navigate our
sites.
Most browsers
are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your
browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is
being sent. However, some features or services on our sites may
not function properly without cookies.
Information sharing
We do not rent
or sell your personally identifying information to other
companies or individuals, unless we have your consent. We may
share such information in any of the following limited
circumstances:
• We have your
expressed consent.
• We provide
such information to trusted businesses or persons for the sole
purpose of processing your request on our behalf. When this is
done, it is subject to agreements that oblige those parties to
process such information only on our instructions and in
compliance with this Privacy Policy and appropriate
confidentiality and security measures.
• We conclude
that we are required by law or have a good faith belief that
access, preservation or disclosure of such information is
reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety
of BRUDERER, its users or the public.
If you have an
account, we may share the information submitted under your
account among all of our services as well as distributors and
channel partners to the extent necessary to provide you with a
seamless experience and to improve the quality of our services.
We will not disclose your account information to other people or
non-affiliated companies, except in the limited circumstances
described in this Policy or with your consent.
We may store and
process personal information collected on our site in any
country in which BRUDERER our hosting providers maintain
facilities. By using our services, you consent to the transfer
of your information among these facilities, including those
located outside your country.
In the event of
a transfer of ownership of parts of BRUDERER, such as
acquisition by or merger with another company, we will provide
notice and ask for your consent before any personally
identifying information is transferred and thereby becomes
subject to a different privacy policy.
We may share
aggregated information with others. Examples of this include
user trends or the number of users who accessed a particular
part of BRUDERER’s web presence. This aggregated information
does not include any personally identifying information.
Information security
We take
appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized
access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction
of data.
We restrict
access to your personally identifying information to BRUDERER
employees who need to know that information in order to fulfil
your request or supply our services.
Updating your information
We provide
mechanisms for updating and correcting your personally
identifying information for many of our services.
Links
The external
sites linked to from the BRUDERER web sites are developed by
people over whom BRUDERER exercises no control. These other
sites may place their own cookies on your computer, collect data
or solicit personal information.
Changes to this Policy
Please note this
Privacy Policy will change from time to time. We expect most
such changes to be minor, but there may be changes that are more
significant.
Regardless, we
will post those changes on this page and, if the changes are
significant, we will also provide a more prominent notice. Each
version will be noted at the top of the page. Prior versions of
this Privacy Policy will be kept in an archive for you to view.
If you have any
additional questions, please feel free to contact us any time. |
