Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. At World Technology we have a few fundamental principles:

  • We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
  • We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
  • We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
  • In our blogging products, we aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, seen by search engines, kept private, and permanently deleted. Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals: (Note, this privacy policy is available under a Creative Commons Sharealike license.

If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team.

World Technology Inc. (“World Technology”) operates several websites including wtcomputers.com, and wthelp.com. It is World Technology’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

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

World Technology also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on WordPress.com blogs. World Technology 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 and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

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

World Technology may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, World Technology may monitor the most popular blogs on the wtcomputers.com site. World Technology may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, World Technology does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

World Technology 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 World Technology’s behalf or to provide services available at World Technology’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 World Technology’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. World Technology 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, World Technology discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when World Technology believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of World Technology, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a World Technology website and have supplied your email address, World Technology 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 World Technology 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. World Technology takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
