Privacy Policy
ton618systems.com (the “Site”) is operated by TON 618 Systems LLC (“TON 618 Systems,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). We are the controller of the personal information this notice describes. We collect only the minimum information necessary to operate the Site, and we do not sell, rent, or otherwise share personal information with third parties, except our payment reseller and email provider as described below.
- Cookies and Tracking. The Site does not use cookies or third-party tracking technologies. Its desktop remembers how you arranged it, and which applications you installed there, in your browser’s local storage; this stays on your device and is never sent to us.
- Usage Information. We keep statistics about how the Site is used and our software is downloaded: the pages viewed; how visitors arrived, such as the referring website, search engine or campaign tag; their country and language; the general type of browser, operating system and device; how long pages were viewed and how far they were scrolled; and actions such as downloading or starting one of our browser-based applications. Some of these numbers, how many people have the homepage open and how many times each application has been downloaded, are shown on the Site as they change; they’re counts only and never identify anyone.
- Visitor Identifiers. To count distinct visitors and visits, we use pseudonymous identifiers derived from a one-way hash of your IP address and browser details, combined with a secret value we change regularly. An identifier used to group pages into a visit is deleted within two days; a separate identifier, used only to tell whether a visitor has been to the Site before, is deleted within 60 days. These identifiers do not reveal your IP address, and we do not use them to identify anyone or combine them with other information.
- Retention. Statistics are kept in aggregate form, which does not identify any individual, for up to 180 days.
- Privacy Signals. If your browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track, we include your visit only in aggregate counts, with no visitor identifier kept.
- Update Checks. Our desktop applications check, at most once a day when they start, which version of them the Site offers, so they can tell you when a newer one is out. The request carries the application’s name and version and, if it has a license, that license’s order number, so we can tell it whether the license has been withdrawn (refunded or charged back). It carries nothing about you or your work. We compare the order number with our records and don’t keep it, log it or count it. We count these checks by application and version, and by country. You can turn the check off in the application’s settings.
- Purchases. Licenses are sold through Paddle, which acts as the reseller and handles payment, tax and invoicing under its own privacy policy; we never see your payment details. From Paddle we receive your name or your company’s, your email address, what you bought and when, which we keep to deliver your license key and to send it again when you ask. License keys are emailed through our email provider. Your license key contains the name and email address it was bought with, and your copy of the application checks it on your device; its update check sends only the license’s order number, as described above.
- Browser-Based Applications. Content created within the browser-based versions of our applications is stored solely on your device. Requests and streams that you direct such an application to open go directly from your browser to the addresses you provide, not through the Site.
Why We Use It
We use information to deliver what you bought and send your license key again when you ask (to perform our contract with you); to run, secure and improve the Site and our software, including the statistics above and update checks (our legitimate interests, which don’t override your rights); and to keep the records the law requires.
Who Receives It
Paddle.com, our reseller and the Merchant of Record for our orders, processes purchases under its own privacy notice.
How Long We Keep It
License records (who a license is made out to, its key, and each change to it) are kept for as long as the license can be used, so its key can be sent again. Statistics are kept as described above, for up to 180 days.
Where It’s Kept
Our service providers store and process information in the United States. Where you are outside it, we rely on their contractual safeguards for transfers.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, correct it, delete it, object to or restrict how we use it, and receive a copy of it; and to complain to your data protection authority. Deleting a license record means we can no longer send its key again. To use these rights, reach us through our contact page.
Security
Information is sent over encrypted connections, kept with providers that encrypt it at rest, and reachable only by the services and people that need it.
Children
The Site and our software are not directed to children under 16, and we don’t knowingly collect their information.
Changes and Contact
We may update this notice; the date at the top says when it last changed. Questions about it can go through our contact page.
