Your Data Center
respects your right to privacy at all times and does not sell, rent, lease,
disclose, publish or otherwise make available, information about visitors
coming to our site to third parties. Below is a breakdown of how your information
is used and what we do with it.
(1) Cookies
"Cookies" are tiny, innocuous bits of information that are automatically
downloaded to your computer when you visit sites that utilize them. These
cookies automatically "remember" things like your last visit, passwords,
personal preferences, etc so that you don't have to type them in each time
you visit the site. Your Data Center does
not use cookies anywhere in it's code or on it's site. However, since some
advertisers use cookies in their ad's, there is the possibility that cookies
could be downloaded to your computer if you click on an ad and leave our
site. If you are uncomfortable with the idea of accepting cookies, you can
easily disable them by going to the "options" tab in your browser and turning
them off.
(2) Surveys
The Visitor Satisfaction Survey and other
surveys we may choose to use on our site in the future are purely voluntary
and the information collected from them is used only for statistical research
and to improve the overall quality of our site. At no time do we make information
from visitor surveys available to third parties or outside advertising
agencies.
(3) Software Submissions
Information entered into our Software Submission
Form is published on our site and made available to the general public.
This means that we publish information about the software product(s) submitted
to us and include a link back to the author's site. During the submission
process we also ask for an email address. We do this in case the need ever
arises to contact the author concerning an inactive link and
for the purpose of providing a support link for our visitors.
At no time is your email address made available to a third party or sold.
(4) Software Reviews
From time to time, we write and publish software reviews. When we do publish reviews, we typically include the review itself along with the author's URL or other "crediting" information. This information is then published on our main page where it appears for a period of one day to one week or longer. The reviews reflect our own personal opinions and are not intended to offend anyone. Nor are our reviews intended to endorse one product over another. At any time, authors have the option of requesting that their review be removed from the site and we will comply. Under no circumstances do we ever release the reviewer's email address to a third party or publish it with your review unless you specifically ask us to.
(5) Newsletter Articles
From time to time, we write and publish newsletters and send them out to various subscribers. Usually, this is done on a weekly basis. Subscribing to and receiving our weekly newsletter is a completely voluntary operation on your part. You will never receive our weekly newsletter unless you specifically request it. If you do subscribe and then decide that you no longer wish to receive it, it's easy to unsubscribe by simply filling out the form at the bottom of our main page. At no time is your email address ever made available to a third party or sold.
(6) Contact Form
When information is sent to us via our Contact
Form, the information entered is considered to be of a private nature
and is not disclosed to anyone. Depending on the type of communication you
have with us (contact form, email, phone, fax, etc) we may choose to contact
you or take other appropriate action depending on what action you requested
we take via the drop-down menu in our contact form.
(7) "Tell A Friend" Form
Our Tell a Friend Form provides an easy
and convenient way for visitors to tell their friends, relatives and
acquaintances about our site. At no time do we monitor personal communications
or messages being sent from this form, nor is any information collected or
sent to us in any manner.
(8) Stored User Information
Besides the full name you enter when registering, nothing is reveiled about you. The email address, username, and password you supply when you sign up all remain hidden. To prevent server abuse and spamming, IP numbers are recorded, but are not made publicly available.
