SiWave Corporation (“Siwave”) operates the siwave.io website. It is Siwave’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Siwave 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. Siwave’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Siwave’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Siwave may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Siwave also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Siwave only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Siwave’s websites choose to interact with Siwave in ways that require Siwave to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Siwave gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. In each case, Siwave collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Siwave. Siwave 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
Siwave may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Siwave may monitor the most popular pages on the siwave.io site or use spam screening services to help identify spam. Siwave may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Siwave does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Siwave 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 Siwave’s behalf or to provide services available at Siwave’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 Siwave’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Siwave 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, Siwave discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Siwave believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Siwave, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Siwave website and have supplied your email address, Siwave 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 Siwave and our products. 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. Siwave takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
