Privacy Policy

The privacy of our visitors at Plain Text is very important to us.

As with most other websites, we collect and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP, the browser you use to visit our site (such as Chrome or Firefox), the time you visited our site and the pages you visited throughout our site.

Keep in mind that we may use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences when you visit our site. This could include only showing you a popup once in your visit, or the ability to login to some of our features, such as forums. We never sell your personal information to third parties.

We also serve third party advertisements on Plain Text to support our site. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used to visit our site. This is generally used for geo-targeting purposes or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited. We also gather audience data (such as age, gender and interest) using Google Analytics.

You can chose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.

Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on this site. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.

We partner with Microsoft Clarity and Microsoft Advertising to capture how you use and interact with our website through behavioral metrics, heatmaps, and session replay to improve and market our products/services. Website usage data is captured using first and third-party cookies and other tracking technologies to determine the popularity of products/services and online activity. Additionally, we use this information for site optimization, fraud/security purposes, and advertising. For more information about how Microsoft collects and uses your data, visit the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

We take the privacy and security of your data seriously. Any information submitted or provided by you through our website is stored securely on our servers. By using our website, you acknowledge and consent to the storage of your data on our servers.

Our servers are protected by industry-standard security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

We may store your data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or as required by law. If you have any concerns about the security of your data or wish to request its removal, please contact us using the information provided in the “Contact Us” page.

By submitting your information to us, you consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of your data on our servers, which may be located in different jurisdictions.

Third party websites may have different privacy policies and Plain Text is not responsible for the privacy practices of those third party websites. If you click on a link to a third party website, Plain Text encourages you to check the privacy policy of that website, as it may differ substantially from that of this Privacy Policy.

You are encouraged to revisit this Privacy Policy from time to time in order to review any changes that have been made. Plain Text’s Privacy Policy was last updated on February 01, 2014. Your continued access and use of Plain Text following the posting of any such changes shall automatically be deemed your acceptance of the same.

If any portion of this Privacy Policy is deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable by any arbitrator, this Privacy Policy as a whole shall not be deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable, but only that portion of this Privacy Policy that is unlawful, void or unenforceable shall be stricken from this Privacy Policy.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Privacy Policy, as may be amended by Plain Text from time to time, shall survive your acceptance of this Privacy Policy.
