Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us; and 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 for unnecessary information 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.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, this website may collect 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; including information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our forum.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors choose to interact with this website in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that is gathered depends on the nature of the interaction.

For example, we ask visitors who leave comments to provide a username and email address.  Those who wish to receive updates via email, we collect their emails.

In each case, we collect such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with this website; and we do 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.

Aggregated Statistics

Most websites collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites.  For instance, to monitor the most popular pages on this site, or use methods screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam; but we do not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

This website 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 our behalf or to provide the products available on this website, 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 this website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.

Writer’s AutoCorrect Abbreviation Dictionary 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, we will only disclose potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights, or us, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user this website and have supplied your email address, we 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 the Writer’s AutoCorrect Dictionary 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.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns.  Aside  from cookies to help this website identify and track visitors, their usage is kept to a bare minimum; therefore, visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using any websites, with the drawback that certain features of this website may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Business Transfers

If Writer’s AutoCorrect Abbreviation Dictionary were ever liquidated, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that this company 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 this company may continue to use this information as set forth in this policy.

Ads

At this time there are no third-party ads on this site, and there are no immediate plans to do so.  However, Writer’s AutoCorrect Abbreviation Dictionary reserves the right to do so at any time in the future.  In the unlikely event that any Ads should appear on any of our websites, they may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies.  This is standard internet practice, and 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 is standard internet practice, and this Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Writer’s AutoCorrect Abbreviation Dictionary only, 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.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Writer’s AutoCorrect Abbreviation Dictionary may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and at our sole discretion. As such, we encourage 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.
