At Mapufacture, we know that you care about how your personal information is used and shared, and we take your privacy seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our privacy policy. By accessing the Mapufacture website or using any of the services provided through the website you are accepting the practices outlined in this Privacy Policy.

What Does This Privacy Policy Cover?

This Privacy Policy covers Mapufacture’s treatment of personal information that Mapufacture gathers when you are on the Mapufacture website and when you use Mapufacture services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to content you post or otherwise make available to other users or the public via the website. You acknowledge that your Mapufacture display name (if you have one) may be displayed to other users when you post content. Any content that you submit to the Mapufacture site may be widely redistributed through the Internet and other media channels.

This policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that Mapufacture does not own or control, or to individuals that Mapufacture does not employ or manage.

Website Visitors

Mapufacture collects non-personally-identifying information including 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. Mapufacture's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Mapufacture's visitors use its website. From time to time, Mapufacture may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Mapufacture's websites choose to interact with Mapufacture in ways that require Mapufacture to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Mapufacture gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we may ask customers who want save graphs or upload data to register with a username and email address on the Mapufacture website. Those who engage in transactions with Mapufacture are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Mapufacture collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the customer's interaction with Mapufacture. Mapufacture does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain activities.

In addition, we may combine non-personally-identifiable information with personally-identifiable information in a manner that enables us to attribute Mapufacture usage to an individual customer's computer or network. We do so, however, only for our own internal business purposes and will not share such combined data with third parties without your permission.

Aggregated Statistics

Mapufacture may collect statistics which may be comprised of aggregated personally-identifying information about the behavior of visitors to its websites and customers of its services. Mapufacture may display this statistical information publicly or provide it to others. However, Mapufacture does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Mapufacture discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Mapufacture's behalf or to provide services available at Mapufacture's websites and services, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Mapufacture's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Mapufacture will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Mapufacture discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, court order, or when Mapufacture believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Mapufacture, third parties or the public at large.

Communications

If you are a registered member of a Mapufacture website and have supplied your email address, Mapufacture may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Mapufacture and our products. We primarily use our corporate blog and website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you are a registered member of a Mapufacture website and do not wish to receive such emails, please follow the instructions included in each email sent. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Mapufacture takes measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
