01 acquisition

article 1 (acquisition and use of personal information)

We collect and use personal information as necessary to provide this service, including account registration and login, product purchases and license delivery, optional email updates, and customer support.

When you create an account, we collect information such as your email address. This information is used to authenticate you, manage your purchases and licenses, and operate your account. If you opt in to email updates, we use your email address to send product news and related notices; you may change your subscription preference from your account page.

When you purchase a product, payment is processed by Stripe on Stripe's website. On the payment page, Stripe may collect information needed to process the payment and calculate applicable taxes, such as your email address, billing address, and—if you purchase as a business—your business name and tax identification number (for example, a VAT number). We receive information needed to fulfill your order and meet tax and accounting obligations (such as payment status, amounts including tax, the email address associated with the transaction, and related tax details available from Stripe). We do not store your full card number on our servers.

When you contact us by email or through our support page, we may collect personal information such as your name (handle name) and email address. We use this information only to respond to your inquiries and provide necessary information.

With your consent, we use Google Analytics to count visits and to see which promotional links brought people to this site. Google may set cookies or similar storage for this purpose. We do not use this data for advertising or visitor profiling. You can accept or decline analytics in the banner shown on first visit. To keep you signed in, we store authentication data in your browser (for example, using browser local storage). This is used only to operate your account and is not used for advertising. You can clear this data by signing out or through your browser settings.

02 storage

article 2 (storage and management of personal information)

We will keep your personal information accurate and up-to-date, and take appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, loss, destruction, falsification, or leakage of personal information, and strictly manage personal information.

We retain account information while your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove sign-in access and revoke associated licenses. We may retain purchase, payment, tax, license, support, and transaction records for the period reasonably necessary to meet legal, accounting, security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution, and record-keeping obligations. Mailing-list records are retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion, subject to the same legal and operational requirements.

03 disclosure

article 3 (disclosure of personal information to third parties)

We will not disclose personal information obtained from users to third parties except in the following cases:

  • 03.1

    With the user's consent

  • 03.2

    When required by law

  • 03.3

    When necessary to prevent fraud or other illegal activities

  • 03.4

    When we entrust handling to service providers that help us operate this service (such as authentication and database hosting, payment processing, email delivery, and—if you accept analytics—Google Analytics), within the scope necessary for those purposes

  • 03.5

    When reasonably necessary to continue providing products, licenses, downloads, account services, or support in connection with a business transfer, reorganization, or transfer of the service or relevant rights, subject to applicable law and appropriate notice where required

04 correction

article 4 (disclosure, correction, and deletion of personal information)

If a user wishes to disclose, correct, or delete their personal information, we will respond appropriately after confirming the identity of the user.

05 analytics

article 5 (access analytics)

We use Google Analytics only to measure how many people visit this site and which promotional links they used. This is not advertising or affiliate tracking. Analytics runs only after you accept. You can decline; if you already accepted, clear this site's data in your browser to be asked again.
