Privacy Policy

It is Democode.net's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Democode.net 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. Democode.net's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Democode.net's visitors use its website. From time to time, Democode.net may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Democode.net also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments. Democode.net 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

Democode.net 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 Democode.net's behalf or to provide services available at Democode.net'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 Democode.net's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Democode.net 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, Democode.net discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Democode.net believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Democode.net, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Democode.net website and have supplied your email address, Democode.net 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 Democode.net 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. Democode.net takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

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

Business Transfers

If Democode.net, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Democode.net 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 Democode.net may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

Ads appearing on any of our websites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. 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 information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Democode.net and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Democode.net may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Democode.net's sole discretion. Democode.net encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
