1. The type of information we collect

QPR Software collects both personal data and non-personal data. By personal data, we mean any information that directly identifies you. By non-personal data, we mean all other information collected that does not enable you to be identified.

 

Non-personal data. QPR Software may automatically collect certain types of non-personal information from you when using our web sites. QPR Software may collect non-personal data which is not linked to an identified user. This includes but is not limited to browser type, IP Address or the URL of the previous web site visits. We may also collect non-personal information that you voluntarily provide, such as information included in response to a questionnaire or survey.

 

The non-personal data generally does not contain any personal data. However, in some cases non-personal data can be stored together with your personal data in such a way that the non-personal data could be considered to be personal data as well. In such cases we process it in accordance with the provisions of this Privacy Policy.

Personal data. QPR Software can collect the personal data you have chosen to make available directly on our web site or via a third-party service. Personal data can be collected when registering to QPR Software websites or when you request information from QPR Software. This personal data includes your name, address, email address, company name, phone number, or other identifying information that is sufficiently specific to identify you and relates to you.
