We use cookies to help improve your experience of https://designnuance.com. This cookie policy is part of DesignNuance’s privacy policy, and covers the use of cookies between your device and our site. We also provide basic information on third-party services we may use, who may also use cookies as part of their service, though they are not covered by our policy.

If you don’t wish to accept cookies from us, you should instruct your browser to refuse cookies from https://designnuance.com, with the understanding that we may be unable to provide you with some of your desired content and services.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit, typically containing information about the website itself, a unique identifier that allows the site to recognise your web browser when you return, additional data that serves the purpose of the cookie, and the lifespan of the cookie itself.

Cookies are used to enable certain features (eg. Blocking Newletter popups to frequent visitor), to track site usage (eg. analytics), to store your user settings (eg. timezone, notification preferences), and to personalise your content (eg. advertising, language).

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are normally referred to as “first-party cookies”, and typically only track your activity on that particular site. Cookies set by other sites and companies (ie. third parties) are called “third-party cookies”, and can be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service.

By using this Site, you consent to the use of such cookies and the sharing of data captured by such cookies with Google, and our other third party partners. You can view, delete or add interest categories associated with your browser. We may employ third-party companies and individuals on our websites—for example, analytics providers (including but not limited to Google) and content partners. We grant these third parties access to selected information to perform specific tasks on our behalf. They may also set third-party cookies in order to deliver the services they are providing. Third-party cookies can be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service. As we have no control over third-party cookies, they are not covered by DesignNuance’s cookie policy.

Our third-party privacy promise

We review the privacy policies of all our third-party providers before enlisting their services to ensure their practices align with ours. We will never knowingly include third-party services that compromise or violate the privacy of our users.

How you can control or opt out of cookies

If you do not wish to accept cookies from us, you can instruct your browser to refuse cookies from our website. Most browsers are configured to accept cookies by default, but you can update these settings to either refuse cookies altogether, or to notify you when a website is trying to set or update a cookie.

If you browse websites from multiple devices, you may need to update your settings on each individual device.

Although some cookies can be blocked with little impact on your experience of a website, blocking all cookies may mean you are unable to access certain features and content across the sites you visit.

YOUR PRIVACY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US. AT DESIGNNUANCE WE HAVE A FEW FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES THAT WE FOLLOW:

We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)

We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.

We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of our site.

It is DesignNuance’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

WEBSITE VISITORS

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

DesignNuance also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. DesignNuance only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

GATHERING OF PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION

Certain visitors to DesignNuancewebsites choose to interact with DesignNuance in ways that require DesignNuance to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that DesignNuance gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive DesignNuance updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, DesignNuance collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with DesignNuance. DesignNuance 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 website-related activities.

AGGREGATED STATISTICS

DesignNuance may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, DesignNuance may use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam. DesignNuance may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, DesignNuance does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

PROTECTION OF CERTAIN PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION

DesignNuance 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 DesignNuance behalf or to provide services available at DesignNuance website, 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 DesignNuance website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. DesignNuance 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, DesignNuance discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when DesignNuance believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of the site, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an DesignNuance website and have supplied your email address, DesignNuance 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 DesignNuance. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. DesignNuancetakes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

COOKIES

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. DesignNuance uses cookies to help DesignNuance identify and track visitors, their usage of DesignNuance website, and their website access preferences. DesignNuance visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using DesignNuance websites, with the drawback that certain features of DesignNuance websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

BUSINESS TRANSFERS

In the unlikely event that DesignNuance goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of DesignNuance may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

ADS

Ads appearing on any of our websites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by DesignNuance and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

COMMENTS

Comments and other content submitted to Akismet anti-spam service are not saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.
