Effective date: September 17, 2019
Thanks for entrusting Driven to Design with your source code, your projects, and your personal information. Holding on to your private information is a serious responsibility, and we want you to know how we’re handling it.
Who we are
Our website address is: https://www.driventodesign.com. Driven to Design is a dba of Spinning Kitty LLC, incorporated in Missouri, United States.
The short version
We only collect the information you choose to give us, and we process it with your consent, or on another legal basis; we only require the minimum amount of personal information that is necessary to fulfill the purpose of your interaction with us; we don’t sell it to third parties; and we only use it as this Privacy Statement describes. We are compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). No matter where you are, where you live, or what your citizenship is, we provide a high standard of privacy protection to all our users around the world, regardless of their country of origin or location.
What information we collect and why
Driven to Design collects basic information from visitors to our website, and some personal information from those who use the Contact form. We only require the minimum amount of personal information necessary.
“User Personal Information” is any personal information about one of our users which could, alone or together with other information, personally identify them. Information such as a user name and password, an email address, a real name, and a photograph are examples of “User Personal Information.” User Personal Information includes Personal Data as defined in the General Data Protection Regulation.
“Technical Information” may include information we collect from website browsers, such as web server logs, or other log information, such as User session or activity logs. Technical Information may be connected to User Personal Information such as a username or an email address, or to other potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.
User Personal Information does not include aggregated, non-personally identifying information. We may use aggregated, non-personally identifying information to operate, analyze, improve, and optimize our website and service.
If you’re just browsing the website, we collect the same basic information that most websites collect. We use common internet technologies, such as cookies and web server logs, to collect Technical Information.
The information we collect about all visitors to our website includes the visitor’s browser type, language preference, referring site, additional websites requested, and the date and time of each visitor request. We also collect potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.
We collect Technical Information to better understand how our website visitors use our site, and to monitor and protect the security of the website. We collect personal information from third parties for the purposes for which it was authorized to be collected. For example, you may authorize Driven to Design to contact you for marketing purposes via a third party’s platform. If we need to use your personal information for other purposes, we will ask your permission first. We use your User Personal Information and Technical Information for internal purposes, such as to maintain logs for security reasons, for training purposes, and for legal documentation and compliance. We limit our use of your User Personal Information to the purposes listed in this Privacy Statement. If we need to use your User Personal Information for other purposes, we will ask your permission first.
What information we don’t collect
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information, such as social security numbers, genetic data, health information, or religious information.
Cookies
Driven to Design uses cookies to make interactions with our service easy and meaningful. We use cookies (and similar technologies, like HTML5 localStorage) to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and provide information for future development of Driven to Design. For security reasons, we use cookies to identify a device. By using our website, you agree that we can place these types of cookies on your computer or device. If you disable your browser or device’s ability to accept these cookies, you will not be able to log in or use Driven to Design’s services. On certain areas of the website, we may also use cookies to identify you and/or your device to advertise Driven to Design products and services to you on third party sites.
Tracking and analytics
We use a number of third party analytics and service providers to help us evaluate our users’ use of this website; compile statistical reports on activity; and improve our content and website performance. We only use these third party analytics providers on certain areas of our website, and all of them have signed data protection agreements with us that limit the type of personal information they can collect and the purpose for which they can process the information.
Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. GitHub responds to browser DNT signals and follows the W3C standard for responding to DNT signals. If you have not enabled DNT on a browser that supports it, cookies on some parts of our website will track your online browsing activity on other online services over time, though we do not permit third parties other than our analytics and service providers to track our users’ activity over time on this website.
