Privacy Policy

What follows is our privacy policy, modified from a similar policy by the fine folks at Automattic who have generously provided theirs via Creative Commons license.

Lincoln Loop, LLC. ("Lincoln Loop") operates several websites including lincolnloop.com and apppack.io. It is Lincoln Loop's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Lincoln Loop 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. Lincoln Loop's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Lincoln Loop's visitors use its website. From time to time, Lincoln Loop may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Lincoln Loop also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Lincoln Loop only discloses logged in user under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Lincoln Loop's websites choose to interact with Lincoln Loop in ways that require Lincoln Loop to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Lincoln Loop gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who request additional information at lincolnloop.com to provide a name and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Lincoln Loop – by purchasing access to apppack.io, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Lincoln Loop collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Lincoln Loop. Lincoln Loop 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 website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Lincoln Loop may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Lincoln Loop may monitor the engagement of various features. Lincoln Loop may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Lincoln Loop does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Lincoln Loop discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Lincoln Loop's behalf or to provide services available at Lincoln Loop's websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Lincoln Loop's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Lincoln Loop will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Lincoln Loop discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Lincoln Loop believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Lincoln Loop, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Lincoln Loop website and have supplied your email address, Lincoln Loop may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Lincoln Loop and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. 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. Lincoln Loop takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
