Web pages accessible to registered members only

Some information provided in our websites is restricted to registered members. Registration information and information provided on these restricted web pages can be used to create a member profile and some information about them can be shared with our employees in compliance with the privacy legislation. For members-only sites and pages, the information you provide can be made available to other members to encourage and facilitate the free exchange of cooperation, research and information, but we explicitly prohibit members to use this information to send unsolicited commercial mail.

With your personal information on membership, you expressly agree that we store, process and handle your data for this purpose as described above.

Non-personally identifiable information

Non-personally identifiable information is derived from data and usage operations that are not directly related to a particular identity. This data is often related to a particular device. We may collect and analyze non-personal data to assess how visitors use our websites, software or services to monitor and improve its contents and performance. Some of our desktop apps collect usage information that is associated with your device to improve our products and services and to ensure we can provide you with the service and support you need. (For example, our servers record your download speed when you are downloading a product and if it finds the speed can be improved, it will use this data to assign your connections further resources.) Such information includes telemetry services built-in our download services and other desktop software, which may include download speeds, system information, such as operating system, host software, processor, and memory installed, product information such as version and feature usage such as menu options or buttons selected. Telemetry data is stored using our systems in European data centers and do not involve third parties. No personally identifiable or unrelated data is stored. In addition to the default data logged, downloader applications may upload data that is downloaded and our technical support team may remotely turn on extended logging features temporarily on your device, in case of technical support activity is requiring additional data for your issue to be effectively solved. You will be notified of this event and you can view what information exactly is recorded during such support fulfillment upon request. Extended logs are not retained.

Aggregated data and logging

We may collect aggregated information and statistics that relate to information that can not be linked to you as a unique person. Such information is, for example, web reference data (the address of websites directly visited before this site), the list of pages that have been viewed and viewed on this site, software usage time, download speed and experience, the time spent on our site and the IP address. An IP address is a combination of a number or letterbox that belongs to your device when it is connected to the Internet. For example, when fetching a page, our systems may log the retrieval IP addresses to produce aggregated reports for estimated users' demographics and traffic patterns, as well as for operational security purposes.

Each time you or your browser asks for or download files from our website, we may store data about these events and their IP address in a log file. We may use this information to analyze a variety of trends, website operations, bug fixes on the website, track user movements, and create aggregated estimated demographic information for business purposes. Logging is done automatically. When laws require we automatically anonymize or obfuscate the IP addresses before storing them.

We will not associate non-personal data from web beacons with personally identifiable information without your permission.

AI Chatbot Service

Our website includes an AI chatbot operated via chatbase.co to provide users with instant assistance, information, and support. When interacting with the chatbot, certain information, such as IP address, browser type, chat history, and other relevant metadata, may be collected to ensure a high-quality user experience and to improve the chatbot’s functionality. Chatbase.co processes this data on our behalf under strict data protection agreements https://www.chatbase.co/legal/privacy

How information is stored and processed

We may use non-personally identifiable data to generate and display aggregated data for reports on the use, performance, and effectiveness of our website, software or services, or to improve the usability and content of the site.

We may use personal information to provide services that support the members' activity, information supply, or cooperation. When accessing our websites an operator can monitor members' personal user information or their activity on the site (such as page queries) to support the members’ interaction, provide authorized access, enable member communication and improve user experience or get information about usage of the website or services.

When shopping on the website or on our resellers' websites, we store and retain the purchase information, identifiers, personal information of the buyer (name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and other data you provide to us). If it is strictly necessary for your purchased product to be used (e.g., for the purpose to activate a license on a USB key), we will provide the minimum required personal information for this purpose to the third party concerned. The third party is responsible for the lawful processing of these data. Our payment processing services may be provided by third party payment services. Third party companies (e.g., credit card companies) may also support the financial activities of us. We share personal information with these partners of us in order to create or facilitate transactions and in order to provide regulatory compliance.

Data Retention Time

We will store your personal information provided on our websites and in our services as long as you are using them or as long as required by law. Some data will be retained even after you finished using our services, according to legal requirements.

Information related to invoices and freight is retained for 8 years.
Complaints are retained for 5 years.

Information transfer

We do not sell or rent individuals' personal information or lists of e-mail addresses for any marketing purpose and, in addition to complying with legal requirements, we make commercially reasonable steps to safeguard this information. However, we reserve the right to transfer any information to any organization to which operators will merge or transfer in the future in the context of corporate transformation in order for a third party to continue these operations. We reserve the right to disclose your personal information to protect our system or our business when we reasonably believe that you are in violation of our Terms of Use or we reasonably believe that you have initiated or participated in any illegal activity. In addition, please note that in certain circumstances, we are required to disclose personal information by court or other authority.

We handle some of our activities in the form of archives available to the public. For example, if you send an e-mail message to one of our public mailing lists or forums operated by the us, this may result in some of your personal information being part of publicly available archives.

On some of our websites, publishing content is allowed for anonymous users, for example a discussion in the forum. In such a case, since no username can be associated with such a user, the user's IP address serves as identification. When you send such content or message to the operator's page anonymously, your IP address may be disclosed.

If you are a registered member of our website or mailing list, you need to know that some of your personal information may be visible to other members and to the public. The operator's database keeps your information about your name, email address, company membership (if represented by an organizational member) and other personal addresses and identifiers. These data are visible to us and may be visible to the public as well.

Please note that any information (including personal information), such as forums, message boards, and newsgroups, that is published on our site's public domain, is considered to be disclosed information that others may collect, transmit and use. Since we do not know or control the actions of others, you must be careful when deciding to publicly disclose such information about yourself or others in such public forums.

In view of the international scope of our websites, personal data may also be visible to persons outside the country of your residence, including those residing in countries that are considered inadequate in their own country's data protection laws and regulations to ensure an adequate level of protection of such information.
