What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment. 

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Website Visitors

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

Taitus Software also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on taitussoftware.com blogs/sites. Taitus Software 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 commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

Cookies

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

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Taitus Software’s websites choose to interact with Taitus Software in ways that require Taitus Software to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Taitus Software gathers depends on the nature of the interaction.
