Your privacy on Devfoundry.com
This Web site is administered by Devfoundry. The primary purpose of
Devfoundry.com is to be a source of web productivity tools to help you better
manage your network servers. We want you to feel secure when visiting our site
and are committed to maintaining your privacy when doing so. The following
provides an overview of how we protect your privacy during your visit.
What information do we gather?
Information on Devfoundry.com is gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly (for
example, through our site's technology); and (2) directly (for example, when
you provide information on various pages of Devfoundry.com).
One example of information we collect indirectly is through our Internet access
logs. When you access Devfoundry.com, your Internet address is automatically
collected and is placed in our Internet access logs.
We collect information directly from you in a number of ways, some of which we
describe in this Privacy Statement. One way is through the use of cookies.
Cookies are small files of information which save and retrieve information
about your visit to Devfoundry.com - for example, how you entered our site, how
you navigated through the site, and what information was of interest to you.
The cookies we use identify you merely as a number. (If you are uncomfortable
regarding cookies use, please keep in mind you can disable cookies on your
computer by changing the settings in preferences or options menu in your
browser.)
We also collect information when you voluntarily submit it to us. Throughout
our site, we provide the opportunity to register for an event or conference,
order a white paper, or participate in an online survey. When we collect this
type of information, we will notify you as to why we are asking for information
and how this information will be used. It is completely up to you whether or
not you want to provide it.
How do we use this information?
We analyze it to determine what is most effective about our site, to help us
identify ways to improve it, and eventually, to determine how we can tailor
Devfoundry.com to make it more effective. We may also use data for other
purposes, which we would describe to you at the point we collect the
information.
Will we share this with outside parties?
We will not sell individual information and will share it only with our
advisors. There will be other times when we need to share information, but
before you submit any information, we will notify you as to why we are asking
for specific information and it is completely up to you whether or not you want
to provide it.
What about sensitive personal data?
We do not generally seek to collect sensitive personal data through this site.
If we do seek to collect such data, we will ask you to consent to our proposed
uses of the data. We may also collect some sensitive personal data
incidentally. By providing us with unsolicited sensitive personal data, you
consent to our using the data subject to applicable law as described in this
notice. The references to "sensitive personal data" are to the various
categories of personal data identified by European and other data privacy laws
as requiring special treatment, including in some circumstances the need to
obtain explicit consent. These categories comprise personal identity numbers,
personal data about personality and private life, racial or ethnic origin,
color, nationality, political opinions or convictions, membership of political
parties or movements, religious, philosophical or other similar beliefs, trade
union membership, physical or mental health or handicap, genetic code,
addictions, gender, sexual life (including sexual orientation), pregnancy,
property matters or penal or criminal conviction or record (including where a
pardon has been granted).
While we take steps to maintain the security of Devfoundry.com, you should
understand that the open nature of the Internet is such that data may flow over
networks without security measures and may be accessed and used by people other
than those for whom the data is intended.
We are interested in maintaining your privacy and creating a valuable resource
for you to use.
