Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. At ThinkFold we have a few fundamental principles:
ThinkFold Ltd (“ThinkFold”) operates the website ThinkFold.com. It is ThinkFold’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. We will only collect information to the extent permissible by prevailing law and pursuant to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
- We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it.
- 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 one of our services.
- In our product(s), we aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, seen by search engines, kept private, and permanently deleted.
Note, our privacy policy (and Terms of Service) has been derived from the privacy policy of the generous team at Wordpress.com, who have shared their privacy policy under a Creative Commons Sharealike license.
This text is also shared under a Creative Commons Sharealike license, and we would direct you to the original if you would like to reuse the content you read here.
Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, ThinkFold 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. ThinkFold’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how ThinkFold’s visitors use its website. From time to time, ThinkFold may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
ThinkFold also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. ThinkFold does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to ThinkFold’s website choose to interact with ThinkFold in ways that require ThinkFold to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that ThinkFold gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a comment at our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with ThinkFold are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, ThinkFold collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with ThinkFold. ThinkFold 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
ThinkFold may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. ThinkFold may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, ThinkFold does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
ThinkFold 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 ThinkFold’s behalf or to provide services available at ThinkFold’s websites, 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 ThinkFold’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. ThinkFold 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, ThinkFold discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when ThinkFold believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of ThinkFold, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of ThinkFold and have supplied your email address, ThinkFold 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 ThinkFold and our products. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. 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. ThinkFold takes 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. ThinkFold uses cookies to help ThinkFold identify and track visitors, their usage of the ThinkFold website, and their website access preferences. ThinkFold visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using ThinkFold’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of ThinkFold’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, ThinkFold may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in ThinkFold’s sole discretion. ThinkFold encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. If you have a ThinkFold.com account, you should also check your account's dashboard for alerts to these changes. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
