QuickCam Team Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us. Logitech has prepared this privacy web page so that you may better understand how your personal information is used in connection with this website. Please take the time to review this page and contact us with any questions or concerns.
Personal information of all users is collected, used and disclosed as described in this Statement of Privacy & Security.
Collection of your Personal Information
If you wish to participate in the forums, we will ask you to register and provide the following personal information: your name, e-mail address, and user ID. We may also collect demographic information, such as your age, gender, zip code/postal code, or country location. The demographic information is optional; you do not need to include it to participate in the forums.
Collection of Other Information
System Configuration Information
Logitech automatically collects on our server logs certain information about your computer hardware and software when you visit this web site. This information may include: your IP address, cookie information, operating system, browser type, domain names, access times, service provider and referring Web site addresses. This information is used by Logitech to monitor the operation of our Web site and online services and the use of its products, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of our products and our Web site.
Tracking of Web Site Usage
Logitech also tracks the usage of visitors to our Web site, including the URL of the visitor's previous Web site and when they exit our Web site. Logitech also keeps track of the pages our customers visit within our Web site and any transaction details (e.g. downloads) in order to determine what Logitech products, information and services are the most popular. Logitech uses various technologies to track trends in the use of our website or online services, including session cookies. These allow us to track how consumers interact with Logitech online and with your permission this information can be tied to your personal information to help us tailor communication to you.
Use of Your Information
With your express permission, Logitech collects, integrates and uses this personal and other information to help you quickly find software, services or information on quickcamteam.net, to help us create Web site content and other services most relevant to you and to alert you to product upgrades, special offers, newsletters, updated information and other new services from Logitech. When Logitech receives information about your session or about you, we may use it for research or to improve our site and the services we offer you. We may also use this information from time to time to monitor the technical functions of our servers and site. Logitech uses this information to communicate with you only after you give your express permission for such communication. Logitech does not share this information with any third parties, except with your consent or as described below.
If you choose not to register and provide this information, you can still use most of Logitech's services. Unfortunately, you will not be able to access areas that require registration.
If you do not want quickcamteam.net to send you e-mail regarding Logitech products or services, you may opt out when you register by selecting the option stating that you do not wish to receive emails from the Administrators.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as performing statistical analysis of our services. We will only provide those companies the personal information they need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information and are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
We from time to time supplement the information we collect from the site with information from offline or third party sources. We use this information to enhance or overlay the "profile" of customers and business contact information. This supplementary data is therefore tied to corporate contact information and in some cases personally identifiable information.
We also may internally compare lists collected from our other sites or within our family of companies to remove duplicate entries.
Personal information collected on this site may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which Logitech or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by using this site, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country. Logitech abides by the safe harbor framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of data from the European Union.
Logitech will not disclose your personal information to any third party without your approval, except that we reserve the right to disclose your personal information: (a) to any of our affiliates, subsidiaries, third party service providers or advisers that we deem appropriate; (b) if such disclosure is made pursuant to a legal proceeding or as required by law; (c) if necessary, to protect the personal safety of users of Logitech's web sites, or the public; (d) to protect and defend the rights or property of Logitech, including its Web site; (e) to another business entity should we plan to merge with, or be acquired by that business entity; or (f) organizations involved in a merger, transfer or sale of our assets or business.
In the event that we disclose your personal information as set out of above, we will require third party organizations who have access to your personal information to protect and maintain your personal information in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Statement of Privacy & Security.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as zip code/postal code or email address), or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate users' personally identifiable information. This can be done by emailing "team at quickcamteam dot net".
Security of your Personal Information
Logitech is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, we store the personal information you provide on computer systems with limited access, which are located in controlled facilities.
Collection and Use of Children's Personal Information
We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from users under the age of 13. If for some reason we are made aware we have such personal information we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.
Use of Cookies
Like many other companies, Logitech uses cookies to help you personalize your online experience. We use both session and persistent cookies. A cookie is a very small text file placed on your hard drive (with your permission) by a web page server. It is essentially your identification card, and cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses. It is uniquely yours and can only be read by the server that gave it to you. Cookies are used by Logitech to tailor content to your interests. For example, when you initiate a response by clicking on a link within an e-mail message, you are re-directed onto the Internet. We then record your individual response to help us deliver information that is more relevant to your interests. This saves you time as it helps Logitech remember who you are. It makes your subsequent visits to quickcamteam.net simpler and more seamless. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the opportunity to decide whether or not to accept it. However, on some pages which require authorization, cookies are not optional. If you choose not to accept cookies, you will likely not be able to access these pages.
Use of E-mail Messaging
Logitech may periodically send our registered users e-mail messages about our products and services.
Enforcement of this Statement of Privacy
If you have questions or complaints regarding this statement, you should first contact us at "team at quickcamteam dot net" with any questions or concerns. All customer complaints will be formally reviewed by Logitech.
Changes to this Statement
Logitech will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy & Security. When Logitech posts changes to this Statement, you will see the word "updated" next to the Privacy Statement link on the front page of quickcamteam.net. If there are material changes to this Statement or in how Logitech will use your personal information, Logitech will prominently post such changes prior to implementing the change; however, we will not make any changes that are less protective of your personal information collected in the past, without your consent. Logitech encourages you to periodically review this Statement of Privacy & Security to be informed of how Logitech is protecting your information.
