Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. At Geeknaut we have a few fundamental principles:

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:

Website Visitors

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

Geeknaut also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Geeknaut 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 Geeknaut’s websites choose to interact with Geeknaut in ways that require Geeknaut to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Geeknaut gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. However, Geeknaut 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.

We partner with ValueClick to serve ads and/or collect certain information when you visit our website. ValueClick may use cookies or web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information during your visit to this website in order to help show advertisements on other websites likely to be more interesting to you. To learn more about this “behavioral advertising” practice or to opt-out of this use of your anonymous information, you can visit http://valueclickmedia.com/member_privacy.shtml

Aggregated Statistics

Geeknaut may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Geeknaut may monitor thethe User Behavior on Geeknaut.com, like what visitors View, what they click on etc. Geeknaut may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Geeknaut does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

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

Cookies

Geeknaut uses cookies to help Geeknaut identify and track visitors, their usage of Geeknaut website, and their website access preferences. Geeknaut visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Geeknaut’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Geeknaut’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
