What Personal Data does Windocks collect about me?

The categories of Personal Data collected by Windocks change depending on the Services you use and whether those Services are free or paid. We have described below which Services correlate with the processing in each Personal Data category.

Information You Provide Directly

We collect the Personal Data you provide to us, for example:

Marketing Contact Information: If you request Windocks to contact you, or sign up for marketing materials or events, Windocks may collect information such as name, address, email address, telephone number, company name, and size of company. This may be collected through the Websites as well as through the use of the Services.

Payment Information: If you purchase a paid subscription from Windocks, we will collect payment information from you that may include your name, billing address and credit card or bank information. We may also use your credit card information to verify your identity and prevent abuse of our pipelines. Please note that Windocks does not directly process or store your entire credit card number, but we do direct that information to our third-party payment processors for processing.

Customer Support and Professional Services: If you contact Windocks customer support or receive professional services, we will collect information about you related to your account and to the requests you are making or the services being provided. Customer Support information is collected through the Websites, email, and the chat functions of videoconferencing technologies.

Other Content You Submit: We may also collect other content that you submit to our Services. For example: feedback, comments and blog posts, or when you participate in any interactive features, surveys, contests, promotions, prize draws, activities or events. When you participate in interactive channels, we may collect and process information for demographic analysis. Such collection is not tied to any specific products, but may be collected through the Websites.

Services Usage Data: We may automatically collect Services Usage Data. Services Usage Data is broken into two categories: Optional Data and Operational Data. Optional Data is aggregated metrics regarding activity and feature usage that provide insights into the success of features. Operational Data is aggregated metrics that track how value is delivered through the use of the Services and provide insights into optimal customer implementation. Both categories of Services Usage Data can be tied to the license key, but the information does not contain any other individual user data.
