Your privacy is critically important to us. At GiToon, we have a few fundamental principles:
- 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 ongoing operation of one of our services.
If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, GiToon 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. GiToon uses the Google Analytics service for this. GiToon’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how GiToon’s visitors use its website. From time to time, GiToon may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
GiToon also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on the blog or forums. GiToon only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to GiToon’s websites choose to interact with GiToon in ways that require GiToon to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that GiToon gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who create a forum account to provide a username and an email address. Those who engage in transactions with GiToon are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, GiToon collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with GiToon. GiToon 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
GiToon may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, GiToon may monitor the most popular integration documentation. GiToon may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, GiToon does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Information We Collect from Other Sources
With your authorization, we may also obtain information about you from other sources. For example, if you create or log into your GiToon Community account through a social media service (like Facebook or Google) or if you connect your account to a social media service, we will receive information from that service (such as your username, basic profile information, and friends list) via the authorization procedures used by that service. The information we receive depends on which services you authorize and any options that are available.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
GiToon 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 GiToon’s behalf or to provide services available at GiToon’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 GiToon’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. GiToon 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, GiToon discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when GiToon believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of GiToon, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an GiToon website and have supplied your email address, GiToon 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 GiToon 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. GiToon takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
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. GiToon uses cookies to help GiToon identify and track visitors, their usage of GiToon website, and their website access preferences. GiToon visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using GiToon’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of GiToon’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Business Transfers
If GiToon, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that GiToon 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 GiToon may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
Ads
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 GiToon and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
Companion Applications
All information collected by the applications is sent directly to your hosted instance of GiToon. This includes, but is not limited to, sensor data and location data, which at times is sent while the application is in the background. At no point is this data logged or given to a 3rd party.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, GiToon may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in GiToon’s sole discretion. GiToon 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.
