1. Policy application

This Policy applies to visitors of the Site, who can receive information, get acquainted with information on the Site, register on the Site using social networks, and distribute information from the Site on social networks, thereby providing the Company with access to its IP address.

It should be noted that the services of the Site may sometimes direct the visitor to the services of other companies, such as the “like”, “share”, and “Twitter” services of social networks Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and so on, and anonymous data may also be collected (after this – third parties). Such third parties have their privacy and personal data protection policies, so it should be remembered that the mode of use of information that the Site visitor shares with such Third Parties is subject to the policies of such Third Parties.

The company is the owner and administrator of the personal data of the Site visitors.

2. Information collected and received from visitors

Visitors to the Site can familiarise themselves with the Site’s content by viewing the Site’s pages. Visitors can communicate with each other and directly with the Company’s representatives, leaving their comments on the Site and spreading information from it on social networks. Such actions of the respondent give access to the Company: 

• to the IP address of the viewer;
• to the data specified by the visitor when registering on the Site (in the case of registration on the Site using already existing accounts in social networks – to the data in these accounts, such as first name, last name, e-mail address, etc);
• to cookie files

The Company also receives information about visits by visitors to the Site – date, time of visit, browser of the visitor, etc.

In any case, the Company does not collect or receive sensitive information about visitors. Sensitive information means information about racial, ethnic, national origin, political, religious or worldview beliefs, information about sex life, genetic data, and other things.

3. How the information is used, disseminated and disclosed

Like most sites, the company has agreements with Google Analytics, Gemius, Facebook Pixel, Google AdSense, Admixer, Disqus, Bigmir, TNS, Google DFP, Twitter API, Instagram API, etc. These services are researched and analysed for website visitors’ preferences to distinguish the relevant advertising. The company distributes only anonymised information about visitors to the Site.

When you access the Site, the Company stores browsing session cookies (small files) on your hard drive, which are temporary and stored for your stay (session) on the Site. “Cookie” is a small data file saved on your computer for using the Site. These files are used only to record the frequency of visits and the time spent on the Site.

Because of the process, your IP address is used, which is processed anonymously. Personal data analysis does not take place. You can choose to automatically delete all or some cookies through your browser’s settings after closing the browser. You can opt out of the unique cookie tied to the browser that identifies you in the Site’s analytics system, thereby opting out of any collection of information about you and their analysis on the Site. For this, it is necessary to prohibit the storage of cookies in your browser’s settings or to visit the site anonymously.

4. Information protection.

The company considers the issue of personal data protection as one of the most critical issues in the modern world. The Company protects the information visitors share with us using appropriate technical, organisational and administrative measures to avoid risks of loss, illegal access, distribution or disclosure. The company provides access to information only to those employees who need it to perform their official duties.

However, despite all efforts, the Company cannot guarantee absolute protection against any threats that may arise outside of the Company’s influence. 

5. Protection of minors’ data

Children need particular protection for personal data, as they may need to be made aware of the relevant risks, consequences and safeguards, and their rights regarding processing personal data. Since the information posted by the Company on the Site may have specific restrictions regarding its viewing by minors and the Site is not intended exclusively for persons who have not reached the age of majority, the Company appeals to parents to explain to their children the issue of safety on the Internet, the necessity of use by such persons certain services of the Site.

6. Amendments to the Policy

The Company may make changes to this Policy from time to time. Legislation, regulation, and industry standards are evolving. In case of changes, the updated version of the Policy will be uploaded to the Site with a note about the latest version.
