Privacy Policy

The administration of the website softpacket.net (hereinafter referred to as the Site) respects the rights of visitors to the Site. We unconditionally recognize the importance of the confidentiality of personal information of visitors to our Site. This page contains information about what information we receive and collect when you use the Site. We hope that this information will help you make informed decisions regarding the personal information you provide to us.

This Privacy Policy applies only to the Site and to information collected by the Site and through it. It does not apply to any other websites and is not applicable to third-party websites that may link to the Site.

Information Collection

When you visit the Site, we determine the domain name of your provider and country (e.g., "aol.com") and selected transitions from one page to another (so-called "clickstream activity").

The information we receive on the Site may be used to facilitate your use of the Site, including but not limited to:

  • organizing the Site in the most user-friendly way;
  • providing the opportunity to subscribe to a mailing list for special offers and topics, if you wish to receive such notifications.

The Site only collects personal information that you voluntarily provide when visiting or registering on the Site. The term "personal information" includes information that identifies you as a specific individual, such as your name or email address. While you can browse the content of the Site without going through the registration procedure, you will need to register to use some features, such as leaving a comment on an article.

The Site uses "cookie" technology to create statistical reports. A "cookie" is a small amount of data sent by a website that your computer's browser stores on your computer's hard drive. "Cookies" contain information that may be necessary for the Site — to save your viewing preferences and collect statistical information about the Site: which pages you visited, what was downloaded, the domain name of the internet provider and the visitor's country, as well as the addresses of third-party websites from which you navigated to the Site and beyond. However, all this information is in no way linked to you as an individual. "Cookies" do not record your email address or any personal information about you.

Additionally, we use standard web server log files to count the number of visitors and evaluate the technical capabilities of our Site. We use this information to determine how many people visit the Site and to organize pages in the most user-friendly way, ensure the Site is compatible with the browsers used, and make the content of our pages as useful as possible for our visitors. We record information about movements on the Site, but not about individual visitors to the Site, so no specific information about you personally will be stored or used by the Site Administration without your consent.

To view material without "cookies", you can configure your browser to not accept "cookies" or to notify you when they are sent.

Information Sharing

The Site Administration under no circumstances sells or lends your personal information to any third parties. We also do not disclose the personal information you provide except as required by law.

  • DoubleClick cookies allow us and our partners to serve ads to visitors of your site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • You can opt out of using such cookies in the Ads Preferences Manager.
