Website Visitors

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

Cart Stack LLC also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on WordPress.com blogs. Cart Stack LLC only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Cart Stack LLC's websites choose to interact with Cart Stack LLC in ways that require Cart Stack LLC to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Cart Stack LLC gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a blog at WordPress.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Cart Stack LLC – by purchasing access to the Akismet comment spam prevention service, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Cart Stack LLC collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Cart Stack LLC. Cart Stack LLC 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

Cart Stack LLC may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Cart Stack LLC may monitor the most popular blogs on the WordPress.com site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam. Cart Stack LLC may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Cart Stack LLC does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Cart Stack LLC 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 Cart Stack LLC's behalf or to provide services available at Cart Stack LLC'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 Cart Stack LLC's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Cart Stack LLC 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, Cart Stack LLC discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Cart Stack LLC believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Cart Stack LLC, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Cart Stack LLC website and have supplied your email address, Cart Stack LLC 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 Cart Stack LLC 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. Cart Stack LLC takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
