Your privacy is vital to us. At Namib Fire, we have a few fundamental principles that we follow:
- 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 ongoing operation of our site.
Namib Fire Pty Ltd (“Namib Fire”) uses the website namibfire.com. It is Namib Fire’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Namib Fire 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. Namib Fire’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Namib Fire’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Namib Fire may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Namib Fire also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Namib Fire only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Namib Fire’s website choose to interact with Namib Fire in ways that require Namib Fire to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Namib Fire gathers depend on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. We collect their emails for those who wish to receive Namib Fire updates via email. In each case, Namib Fire collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Namib Fire. Namib Fire 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
Namib Fire may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its website. For instance, Namib Fire may monitor the most popular pages on the namibfire.com site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam. Namib Fire may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Namib Fire does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Namib Fire 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 to process it on Namib Fire’s behalf or to provide services available at Namib Fire’s website, 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 Namib Fire’s website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Namib Fire 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, Namib Fire discloses potentially personally identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Namib Fire believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Namib Fire, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Namib Fire website and have supplied your email address, Namib Fire 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 Namib Fire and our products. We primarily use our various product 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 to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Namib Fire takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Retention of Personal Information
We will retain your personal information on our systems only for as long as we need to. We keep contact information (such as mailing list information) until a user unsubscribes or requests that we delete that information from our live systems. If you choose to unsubscribe from a mailing list, we may keep certain limited information about you so that we may honour your request.
When deletion is requested or otherwise required, we will anonymize the data of data subjects and/or remove their information from publicly accessible sites if the deletion of data would break essential systems or damage the logs or records necessary to the operation, development, or archival records.
If you would like to request deletion of your account and associated data, please visit our Contact Form and submit a request for deletion. We will reply once the process is complete.
Cookies
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. Namib Fire uses cookies to help us identify and track visitors, their usage of Namib Fire’s website, and their website access preferences. Namib Fire’s visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Namib Fire’s website, with the drawback that certain features of Namib Fire’s website may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Business Transfers
If Namib Fire or substantially all its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Namib Fire goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that are transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Namib Fire may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
Ads
Ads appearing on our website may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Namib Fire and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
Comments
Comments and other content submitted to Akismet anti-spam service are saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, Namib Fire may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Namib Fire’s sole discretion. Namib Fire encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
