Your privacy is critically important to us. At Chameleoid we have a few fundamental principles:
- 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 one of our services.
- In our products, 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.
Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals: (Note, the following privacy policy is available under a Creative Commons Sharealike license, and should seem familiar to you if you've read Automattic's Privacy Policy.)
"Chameleoid" operates several websites including chameleoid.com, tty.tv, and telepathy.pw. It is Chameleoid's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Like most website operators, Chameleoid 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. Chameleoid's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Chameleoid's visitors use its website. From time to time, Chameleoid may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Chameleoid also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Chameleoid only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Certain visitors to Chameleoid's websites choose to interact with Chameleoid in ways that require Chameleoid to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Chameleoid gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for some of our services to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Chameleoid are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Chameleoid collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Chameleoid. Chameleoid 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.
Chameleoid may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Chameleoid may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Chameleoid does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Chameleoid 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 Chameleoid's behalf or to provide services available at Chameleoid'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 Chameleoid's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Chameleoid 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, Chameleoid discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Chameleoid believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Chameleoid, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Chameleoid website and have supplied your email address, Chameleoid 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 Chameleoid and our products. We primarily use our various product forums and blogs 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. Chameleoid takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
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. Chameleoid uses cookies to help Chameleoid identify and track visitors, their usage of Chameleoid website, and their website access preferences. Chameleoid visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Chameleoid's websites, with the drawback that certain features of Chameleoid's websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
If Chameleoid, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Chameleoid 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 Chameleoid may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
Although most changes are likely to be minor, Chameleoid may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Chameleoid's sole discretion. Chameleoid encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of our sites after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
