Scotland Software Privacy Policy

 

  Privacy Policy

Our privacy is extremely important to us. Yes, our own privacy. There's nothing we hate more than "spam"
email (as if society isn't sufficiently saturated with hateful advertising). For this reason, we presume that
you feel the same way about your own privacy, so we've formed an appropriate privacy policy.

This page details our privacy policy in clear terms, and is intended to answer most common questions you
may have. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any further questions, or to discuss this policy.

  Frequently Asked Questions

This section answers some frequently asked questions about our privacy policy.

You say you won't share information, but some companies still provide targeted
third-party advertising themselves. Do you do this?

No. We will not share your information with any third party, and nor will we expose you to advertising
from third parties, by any means or for any reason. This means that you will not see banner advertising
on the Scotland Software website, nor will you see ads in any of our software products, and so on.

Once I buy one of your products, will you then send me email about updated versions?

Not automatically. If you want to receive information about updates, please email us to say so, and we'll
then gladly send you relevant information about our own products at appropriate times. But we won't do
so unless you specifically ask. If we have an option to receive email on one of our web forms, the option
will be disabled by default.

If I wanted to be completely removed from your customer database, would you comply?

Of course. We will ask for confirmation of a few details to make sure you are who you say you are,
then we will immediately and permanently remove all of your information from our files.

The Data Protection Act (UK) requires that you provide me with lists of any information
you hold about me, and allows charging of a fee for this service. What fee do you charge?

We do not charge a fee, and we never will. We will gladly provide you with details of any information we hold
about you, and perform any amendments or deletions free of charge. Note that, if you have not personally given
us information before, we will not have any. We do not obtain mailing lists or other databases from third parties.

Don't you feel that your policy, whilst enlightened, will reduce sales?

No doubt, but that's a small price to pay for privacy and trust.

Is this all just a PR exercise?

Absolutely not. We hate spam email. It's a daily hassle which we could all do without. If more companies created,
and abided by, a clear, strict and easy-to-understand privacy policy, we'd all receive less junk email. We'd like
that more than anything, so we're practising what we preach.
