Privacy Policy

Updated November 8th, 2021

​

This is TechDragons Privacy Policy. TechDragons (“We”, “our”) is a Canadian corporation that owns and operates theskygrotto.com. TechDragons respects your privacy and that is why we have adopted this Privacy Policy, which embodies our commitment to the protection of your privacy through adherence to fair electronic information practices. This Privacy Policy sets out how we obtain and use the “Personal Information” which you provide us. Personal Information may include your name, address, telephone number, email address and other data which may directly or indirectly identify you.

​

What information we collect about you

We may collect your Personal Information when you provide it to us by using our forum services. We may also collect your Personal Information when other sources provide it to us, as further described below. By requesting or using our Services, you may be asked to consent to our collection and use of your Personal Information in connection with our provision of the Services, in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

​

Your use of the Services: We may keep track of certain information about you when you visit and interact with any of our Services. This information includes the features you use; the links you click on; and, frequently used search terms.

​

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: We may use cookie files to make it easier for users to access our website or Services. A cookie file is a small data file that certain Web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited. But the only Personal Information a cookie generally contains is information which you indirectly supply yourself. A cookie can't generally read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. We use cookies to track user traffic patterns. We may also use a cookie to store a unique, random user ID. We may use this ID to identify you anonymously in our database and to track the pages you visit on our site. This type of temporary cookie lasts only for your current session on our web page and is not used after your session expires. We use it primarily to keep track of information during your session.

​

How we use your personal information

Delivering, improving, updating and enhancing the Services we provide to you: We use information about you for purposes of monitoring and improving our internal operations, as well as to ensure that we properly perform the services you have requested.

​

We also use the information we collect to monitor and improve our internal operations, as well as to improve the experience of users on our websites. For example, we may correlate Web site traffic information with data about individual users. We may also break down overall usage statistics according to customers' domain names, browser types, and MIME types by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser).

​

Compliance with legal, regulatory and law enforcement requests: We will not share such information with other third parties, except in response to formal requests (e.g., subpoena, court order, or other statutory or law enforcement requests) made in connection with disputes, litigation, arbitration, or criminal proceedings or investigations.

​

Communicating with you: We may contact you directly or through a third party service provider regarding products or Services you have signed up for or purchased from us, as necessary to deliver transactional or Service related communications. We may also contact you with offers for additional services we think you’ll find valuable pursuant to your consent which may have been provided as part of the registration or sign-up process, or where otherwise permitted. These contacts will always be limited to emails.

​

Transfer of Personal Information abroad:  If you utilize our Services from a country other than the country where our servers are located, your communications with us may result in transferring your Personal Information across international borders.

​

Changes to this Policy

TechDragons will occasionally update this Privacy Policy to reflect company and customer feedback, as well as legal requirements. TechDragons encourages you to provide feedback and to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed of how TechDragons handles your Personal Information.
