Privacy Policy

Coloft operates Coloft.com. It is Coloft’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website.

Website Visitors

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

Coloft also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Coloft 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 Coloft’s websites choose to interact with Coloft in ways that require Coloft to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Coloft gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for our newsletter to provide name and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Coloft are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Coloft collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Coloft. Coloft 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

Coloft may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Coloft may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However,Coloft  does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Coloft 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 Coloft’s behalf or to provide services available at Coloft’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 Coloft’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Coloft 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, Coloft discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Coloft believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Coloft, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Coloft website and have supplied your email address, Coloft 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 Coloft. We primarily use our  website 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 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. Coloft takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
