Privacy Policy
The following describes the Privacy Policy for the CybaPlug.net website.
Your Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. By using our website and providing personal information, you agree to these policies.
State Law & Accompanying Rights
Please understand that you may have additional rights originating from State laws based on where you live. These State-based rights may augment, strengthen, or otherwise complement any privacy rights you have inherently or under Federal law. Our policy is to comply fully with the privacy policies of every jurisdiction in which we operate. Accordingly, you are free to contact us anytime to assert any State rights.
Our Commitment to Children’s Privacy
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. Our website will never knowingly collect or maintain information from individuals under the age of 18, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 18.
Under our Terms of Service and Conditions of Use, children under 18 are not allowed to use our website and access our services. It is not our intention to offer products or services to minors.
Google Analytics
CybaPlug.net uses Google Analytics to help analyze how users use the site. The tool uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) is transmitted to Google. This information is then used to evaluate visitors’ use of the website and to compile statistical reports on website activity.
We will never (and will not allow any third party to) use the statistical analytics tool to track or collect any Personally Identifiable Information of visitors to our site. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Neither we nor Google will link, or seek to link, an IP address with the identity of a computer user.
You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that doing so may limit the full functionality of this website. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
Other Collection of Personal Information
When visiting our website, the IP address used to access our site may be logged along with the dates and times of access. This information is purely used to analyze trends, administer our website, track users’ movements, and gather broad demographic information for internal use, such as statistical assessments and website improvement. Importantly, any recorded IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Other typical information may also be collected. For example, the source that referred you to our website is generally known. Similarly, your time spent on our website and your destination after leaving can also be tracked. Other common data includes the type of operating system on the computer you are using and your web browser. These practices are standard and help enhance the user experience.
Cookies are another standard internet practice. Cookies are a key means of improving user experience by allowing us to customize your use of our website. Basic information is transferred to your computer, enabling the content and experience to reflect your actions and preferences. You should assume our website uses cookies, and you can adjust your browser settings to disable cookies or receive notifications about them. Please understand that refusing cookies may limit some features of our website.
At times, you will be aware of the information you provide directly, such as when you comment on a blog post, reply to an email, provide an email address, complete a survey, or make a purchase. Refusing to provide certain information may prevent us from providing you with the products or services you’ve requested.
Some sections of our website may be protected by a username and password. Whether generated by our site or created by you, these are often connected with other account-related data. These should be kept private for your security.
Handling of Personal Information
Any personal information you provide to others apart from us or our vendors is wholly optional. For example, if you disclose something in a blog post comment, that information is now public, and we have no control over it. Similarly, if you share information with any third party not functioning as a service provider to us, that information falls under their policies, not ours.
Our primary purpose for collecting personal information is to conduct our business. This information is used internally to serve you better. We generally do not share your personal information with outside parties unless you authorize us to do so.
There are instances where your information may be stored with third-party service providers, such as email service providers, to offer services that are more secure and efficient. You are not required to interact with these providers directly, and they are restricted in their use of your information.
In aggregate form, your information may be used to understand our overall user base and shared with third parties for various purposes.
However, we may be compelled by law to disclose personal information in certain situations, such as during legal proceedings or investigations. Additionally, if necessary to protect our interests, such as in cases of intellectual property infringement, we may share your information.
