Personal Information Collected
We collect your personal information in the following ways:
Registration
In order to become a Service user and to have full access to our services, you must first create an account on this web site. To create an account you are required to provide the following contact information: first name, last name, user name, password, "can others see email" option, e-mail address. If you wish, you can also provide postal address, postal code and country.
Cookies
Like most web sites, the Service uses cookies and web log files to track site usage. A cookie is a tiny data file which resides on your computer which allows the Service to recognize you as a user when you return to our site using the same computer and web browser. Unfortunately, if your browser settings do not allow cookies, you will not be able to use our website. Like the information you enter at registration or in your test or profile, cookie and log file data is used to customize your experience on the web site.
One type of cookie, known as a "persistent" cookie, is set once you've logged in to your Service account. The next time you visit the Service web site, the persistent cookie will allow us to recognize you as an existing user so you will not need to log in before using the service. In order to access or change any of your private information (like a credit card number), however, you must log in securely again with your password even if your computer contains your persistent cookie.
Additionally, if you log out of the Service site you will need to re-enter your password the next time you visit in order to log in to your account. Another type of cookie, called a "session" cookie, is used to identify a particular visit to the Service site. Session cookies expire after a short time or when you close your web browser.
We use cookies to improve the quality of our service by storing user preferences and tracking user trends. In the course of serving advertisements or optimizing services to our users, we may allow authorized third parties to place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. Any information provided to third parties through such cookies will not be personally identifiable but may provide general segment information, e.g. your geographic location. For greater customization of your user experience, most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Unfortunately, if your browser settings do not allow cookies or you opt to refuse all cookies, you may not be able to use our website or services. The Service does not store personally identifiable information in the cookies.
Web Beacons
We may allow other companies, called ad networks, to serve advertisements to the Service users. Ad networks include third party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms. The Service may "target" some ads to users that fit a certain general profile — for example, "doctor of medicine, husband and father of three children living in his own house in Switzerland and drives Mercedes-Benz". To deliver these ads properly, the Service may include a file, called a web beacon, from these ad networks within pages served by the Service so the networks may provide aggregated auditing, research and reporting with anonymity for advertisers as well as to target ads to you while you visit other websites. Because your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad network's servers, these companies can view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.
Log files, IP addresses and information about your computer
Due to the communications standards on the Internet, when you visit the Service web site we automatically receive the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going when you leave the Service. We also receive the Internet protocol (IP) address of your computer (or the proxy server you use to access the World Wide Web), your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, email patterns, as well as the name of your ISP. This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve the Service.
Uses of Personal Information
The personally identifiable information you choose to provide on this site is used to help you to better use the Service. Other information (such as, by way of example, patterns of utilization) is collected and exclusively owned by Sauma Technologies Oy. This information can be utilized by Sauma Technologies Oyin such manner as Sauma Technologies Oy, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.
Sauma Technologies Oy Communications
Sauma Technologies Oy will communicate with you through email and notices posted on this website or through any other means available through the service, including text and other forms of messaging. If we send any communications to you via the carrier service with which you have a mobile communications subscription or otherwise have access, you understand you will pay any service fees associated with any such access (including text messaging charges to your mobile device). These may include a series of up to five welcome emails which help inform new users about various features of the service. Please be aware that you may receive certain emails from the Service related to the proper functioning of your account. You can change your e-mail and contact preferences at any time by logging into your account and amending your email notification choices. If you wish, you can also opt-out of receiving promotional emails, by sending a request to info@hoursofwar.com.
Customized Content:
Information you provide at registration is also used to customize your experience on the web site.
Sharing Information with Third Parties
We will share your personally identifiable information with third parties only to carry out your instructions and to provide specific services or information. For instance, we may use a credit card processing company to bill users for subscription fees. We may also offer our services in connection with other web sites or may partner with other online services to give you the combined results of both services or additional services and benefits. Whenever we offer such services, it will be your choice to make use of the services or not. We may share information with third parties to enable co-operation needed to deliver our and our partners combined services and for marketing purposes. These third parties do not retain, share, or store any personally identifiable information except to provide these services or products and are bound by strict confidentiality agreements which limit their use of such information.
We may provide aggregated anonymous data about the usage of our services to third-parties for such purposes as we deem, in our sole discretion, to be appropriate, including, without limitation, to prospective advertisers on the Service. We may segment our users by e.g. profession, family status, geographic location, housing type, mobility. If you would like to be excluded from the aggregated research or products and services based upon aggregated data about our users' activities on the site, please email info@hoursofwar.com.
Legal Disclaimer
It is possible that we may need to disclose personal information when required by law. We will disclose such information wherein we have a good-faith belief that it is necessary to comply with a court order, ongoing judicial proceeding, or other legal process served on our company or to exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
Disclosures to others:
We may also disclose your personal and other information you provide, to another third party as part of reorganization or a sale of the assets of a Sauma Technologies Oy division or company and only after taking steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected. Any third party to which we transfer or sell the Service and/or Sauma Technologies's assets will have complete and full right to continue using and utilizing the personal and other information that you provide to us.
Your Information Choices
Accessing and Changing Your Account Information
