1. Website, Application Visitors
Like most website and application operators, collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Vidcentum’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Vidcentum’s visitors use its websites and applications. From time to time, Vidcentum may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its websites and applications.
Vidcentum also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for users (visitors) of our sites.
2. Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Vidcentum's websites and applications choose to interact with Vidcentum in ways that require Vidcentum to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Vidcentum gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a blog at blog.vidcentum.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Vidcentum by purchasing access to the Akismet comment spam prevention service, for example, visitors are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Vidcentum collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Vidcentum. Vidcentum does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain websites and applications related activities.
3. Aggregated Statistics

If you send us a request (for example, via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users.
