Scope of provided services
Compojoom.com offers two types of services: downloads and support.

The latter are provided only to qualifying subscribers, if they are logged in, and only for the term of their subscription. As soon as your subscription expires you will have no access to any of the for-a-fee downloads, even for those items which were already published or made available during your subscription's term.
Support services are provided to qualifying subscribers only and only if they are logged in. Likewise to our download services, support services are provided only for the term of your subscription. When your subscription expires you will not be able to file any replies to your existing tickets or new tickets. Moreover, private tickets will no longer be available for you to read.

Privacy Policy
Summary
Compojoom is committed to protecting you and your personal information when you are using our services. We want our services to safe and enjoyable environments for our users. This Privacy Policy is relevant to our use of any personal information you provide to us during your visit to our site.

Compojoom seeks to follow the industry's best practices concerning personal information handling.

The website contains hyperlinks to external resources, hosted and operated by third parties. These parties have their own privacy policies, including cookies, and we urge you to review them carefully. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for the handling of your personal information when visiting these external resources; your use of those third party resources and/or websites is your own responsibility.

We also use third-party service and content providers (currently, only Google, Inc) who may collect their own set of personal information. Since these are third parties, the information collected by them is not governed by this Privacy Statement. Take a look at the Cookies section towards the bottom of this document for more information.

Personal information collected

Whenever you register for our members-only services, for example using our ticket system, we may ask personal information about you. This can consist of such information as your name, e-mail, website address, gender, etc. By entering the information in the fields requested you enable Compojoom to provide you with the services you select.

We record your IP address as part of the unconditional logging our web server software does whenever anybody accesses our site. The collected IP addresses remain on record for at least a year, but they will be not shared with third parties. Exception to this rule is sharing information with authorities in the case of a suspected or proven breach of our site or other proven misuse of our services.

We record your IP address, HTTP Referer information, username (if applicable), date & time as well as the selected item whenever you are downloading anything from our Downloads page. This information is strictly confidential and will not be shared with any third party unless a. we are requested to do so by law or b. it is deemed of absolute necessity in order to protect our business (e.g. as a proof of service consumption in the case of a PayPal dispute). We will not sell, lease or in any other way allow any third party to have access to the raw, redacted or aggregated forms of this information, as per the next section of this document.

This website is also using "cookies" to enhance user experience. Please read the relevant chapter to find out more about our use of cookies.
Use of collected information

Compojoom will NOT sell, rent or otherwise willingly transmit the recorded personal information to any third party. Your privacy is important to us and we will not even offer aggregate information resulting from personal information processing to any part outside Compojoom. We only use the recorded personal information for:
• service administration purposes, e.g. sending you password reminders, registration confirmations, billing subscription services etc.;
• to contact you regarding new content added on our website, e.g. new forum posts, if you have opted in for this sort of communication;
• to personalize your experience, through the storage of your preferences in cookies and/or our site's database;
• analyze the use of our website and improve its usability;
• IP addresses may be used to identify the location of users, the number of visits from different cities / territories / countries or filter and block inappropriate use.
• dispute chargeback requests
If Compojoom wishes to use the recorded personal information for other uses, it will notify you beforehand so that you have the chance to opt-out from these new uses.

When we contact you
We only contact you if you have explicitly opted-in for such communication through the use of our services. For example:

  • We may contact you if a new post was added to a ticket thread or category you have subscribed to
  • We shall contact you regarding if your subscription status has changed or a change is imminent
  • We shall contact you to send you a copy of your invoice after a purchase
  • We may contact you when you register or modify a user account, request a username/password reminder or reset, or in any other case where you perform an action related to the administration of the information stored in your user account
  • We may contact you when you have registered for our newsletter

We may also directly contact you - manually sending out emails - under special circumstances such as:

  • Suspecting that your account is compromised by an unauthorized third party
  • Before, during or after server-related incidents which may seriously hamper your ability to use our services
  • In case you have crossed the line of fair use of our services
  • If you have so asked us with an email, ticket, personal message, instant message, Twitter message or any other form of contact.

Information sharing with third parties
Information collected by Compojoom.com will not be shared with any third parties. Not in their raw form, not in a processed or aggregate form. We do not share personal information with third parties except as stated in the "Use of collected information" article above.

Important note: Please review the section on cookies, as we employ third-party service/content providers. These providers collect their own set of personal information, governed by their own privacy statements.

Exceptions to this rule will be clearly stated and will only be part of a special offer campaign. For instance, we may launch a campaign offering subscriptions to third party services for free or with a discount. If we are to collect and share your personal information you will be informed before opting in to that campaign.

Notable exception: When you submit an unsolicited support request –that means any kind of support request submitted by any means other than our ticket system– you do not have any reasonable expectation of privacy. We reserve the right to publicise parts or the entirety of our communication using any means we deem appropriate.

Privacy policy for minors
If you are considered a minor in your jurisdiction (for example, people under 18 years of age in Germany) you must get your parent's/guardian's permission before submitting any content or personal information to Compojoom.com. If you or your parent/guardian believes beyond doubt that such information have been submitted in violation of the above term, you may submit to us relevant proof so that we can remove the offending information from our website and records.

Duration of personal information retainment
Notwithstanding any aforementioned cases of explicit information removal, your personal information may be stored in our servers for an indefinite period of time, no less than the duration of your account's existence or 1 calendar year, whichever is more.
