Privacy Policy’s
Our privacy is critically important to us. At Oculu 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.
Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:
If you have questions about accessing or correcting your personal data please contact our support team at support@oculu.com.
Oculu, LLC. (“Oculu”) operates several websites including www.oculu.com, www.localclick.com . It is Oculu’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Oculu 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. Oculu’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Oculu’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Oculu may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Oculu also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on WordPress.com blogs. Oculu 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 Oculu’s website choose to interact with Oculu in ways that require Oculu to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Oculu gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who engage in transactions with Oculu –for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Oculu collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Oculu. Oculu 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
Oculu may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Oculu may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Oculu does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Oculu 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 Oculu’s behalf or to provide services available at Oculu’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 Oculu’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Oculu 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, Oculu discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Oculu believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Oculu, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of Oculu and have supplied your email address, Oculu 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 Oculu 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 in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Oculu takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
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. Oculu uses cookies to help Oculu identify and track visitors, their usage of Oculu website, and their website access preferences. Oculu visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Oculu’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Oculu’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Business Transfers
If Oculu, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Oculu 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 acquiror of Oculu 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 Oculu and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
Comments
Comments and other content submitted to our anti-spam service are not 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, Oculu may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Oculu’s sole discretion. Oculu encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. If you have a WordPress.com account, you should also check your blog’s dashboard for alerts to these changes.
