Privacy Policy
Perl Services considers the protection of individual privacy to be a
fundamental requirement for ethical commerce and interaction on the
Internet. We firmly believe the ongoing investment and success of commercial
interests will be an instrumental component in the growth and diversity of
the Web. We have created this statement in order to demonstrate our firm
commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and
dissemination practices.
- What information is collected on this site?
-
Anonymous click-stream information may be collected for every visitor to
this site. This includes pages viewed, date & time, user platform, screen
bit-depth, and browser type. IP numbers are not stored, but are temporarily
used to determine domain type and in some cases, geographic region. There is
NO association between this information and a visitor's identity.
Information provided to Perl Services during the purchase or download of a
script is kept strictly confidential, and is NEVER sold or shared with third
party entities. If you have downloaded a freeware script, or purchased a
script from Perl Services, your email address is stored in our mailing list.
However, EVERY email we send to our mailing list has a link to immediately
unsubscribe included, so if you do not wish to receive notifications of new
scripts or other Perl Services news and information, you will not be somehow
manually resubscribed by our staff. Remember, the choice to get email from
us is completely up to YOU.
- How is it used?
-
Any information is used by Perl Services to build anonymous visitor
information data which is used to more effectively focus the site content
and to increase ease of navigation - all without knowing your identity! Once
again, there is NO association between a user's anonymously collected
clickstream data and a visitor's identity or email address.
Our site may use cookies in conjunction with the CGI scripts to track your
progress during a download or script purchase process. We DO NOT use cookies
to attempt to determine your personal identification or for any other
marketing reason. We also do NOT share or make accessible our cookies to any
third party agency or interest.
- Public Areas
-
This site may make use of FAQ's and other posting board areas available to
its users. Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these
areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when
deciding to disclose any information. Perl Services is not responsible, in
any case, for the security of any information that you choose to divulge and
make public on this website. However, we write our scripts so that YOU have
the opportunity to have your personal information shown or hidden, so it is
your choice as to the level of privacy you face on our site.
- Fraud Protection
-
Perl Services paid programs (not free programs) employ a measure against fraud.
This measure is in place to ensure that people are not fraudulently distributing
or installing our paid programs. What this measure does is, when a program is
set-up, send us a notification of where the program was set up. The information
we receive is the name of the program and the domain name of the server that it
was installed on. That's all. We do not receive your your username nor your password
nor do we obtain any personal information regarding you or your business. The only
information we receive is the above two pieces of information along with the time
and date. By utilizing this police, we can keep our costs down and our scripts more
affordable for you, the end user.

privacy policies:
