This privacy policy has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned with how their 'Personally Identifiable Information' (PII) is being used online. PII, as described in US and EU privacy laws and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context.

Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our website.

1. What personal information do we collect from the people that visit our blog or website

When ordering or registering for the newsletter on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your name, email address or other details to help you with your experience.

2. When do we collect information?

We collect information from you when you make a purchase, subscribe to the newsletter, fill out a form or enter information on our site.

3. How do we use your information?

We may use the information we collect from you when you make a purchase, sign up for our newsletter, respond to a survey or marketing communication, surf the website, or use certain other site features in the following ways:

•       To send periodic emails regarding your order or other products and services.

Mailchimp as the newsletter service provided

The personal data collected through the newsletter opt-in form is transferred to and processed by MailChimp. MailChimp therefore collects and stores personal data (email address and possibly also your name and surname if supplied) into Mailchimp’s sub-processors who perform some critical services, such as helping MailChimp prevent abuse and providing support to our customers. We use the MailChimp service to be able to send newsletters to anyone who gives explicit consent that they wish to receive them.

Newsletters are sent for updates, special offers and other news regarding our products and they will be sent periodically, at most once a week and mostly once a month.

4. How do we protect your information?

We do not use vulnerability scanning and/or scanning to PCI standards. An external PCI compliant payment gateway (HumbleBundle.com) handles all CC transactions. We use regular Malware Scanning done by Bluehost.com, which is our web hosting service provider.

Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. In addition, all sensitive/credit information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

In fact, all of our website is run and protected using the SSL technology.

All transactions are processed through a gateway provider (HumbleBundle.com) and are not stored or processed on our servers.

Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.

We use cookies to:

However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

We use Google AdSense Advertising on our website.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site.

8. California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the US to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law's reach stretches well beyond California to require any person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting Personally Identifiable Information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared.

When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States' consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children's privacy and safety online.

We do not specifically market to children under the age of 13 years old.

12. Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.

In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:

We will notify you via email

•       Within 7 business days

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle which requires that individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

13. CAN SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
