We may ask you for personal information when you download our software, register for a trial license, purchase a permanent license, or at all of these times. For example, we may ask you for your e-mail address, your name, company name, address, and credit card billing information.

 

We use your e-mail address to send registration reminders, to notify you of new software releases, updates, special offers, news, and possibly to send investor communications. For your convenience, each announcement contains instructions on how to be removed from all future mailings.

We use your name and other personal information to identify you as a registered user in order to give you the full benefits of registration including technical support and upgrade eligibility.

Web Visit
When you visit our Web site, our server logs your IP address, the time and duration of your visit, and the time and duration of the pages on our Web site that you view.

We will also place a "cookie" on your computer’s hard drive. A cookie is an alphanumeric identifier that is unique to your browser. This cookie will identify your browser when you visit our site again so that we may customize your visit. If you do not wish to have a cookie on your computer, check the "help" feature of your browser for instructions. Most browsers can be set to refuse cookies.

Web visit information is used to generate aggregate statistical data that we use to measure interest in our Web pages. We may also tie this information to your personal information.

We may ask you to describe the ways in which you and your company manage your IT resources or your experience with our software or Web sites.

Shopping Cart: We use cookies to identify you as a previous visitor to our Web site and keep track of items in your shopping cart. We may tie the cookie to any personal information we have about you.

Software Reporting: The software includes a feature which assigns a unique number to your computer based on system information. The software reports this number to us when you use the Software during the trial period. The Software may also identify and report to us your Windows language identifier setting, IP address, and the date and time of program use. We use this information to count the number of installations, measure frequency of use, detect piracy of our software, and develop rough statistical data regarding the geographic location of our users. If you register our software, we may tie this information to any personal information that we have about you.

Purchase: In addition to obtaining your name and other personal information, we will identify and log your browser type when you purchase our software online. We use this information to help us detect piracy of our software.
