At HDRsoft we use your data very sparingly. We believe in putting customers first, not our bottom line.
Unlike many companies, we don't track users and collect as much information as we can. We aim to gather and use only the information we need to serve you.
HDRsoft collects information from you when:
When you purchase a license for our software, we collect the information you submitted to complete the purchase, which includes your email address and name, but does not include any credit card or bank information.
When you purchase via PayPal, the information we collect is provided by PayPal and covered by PayPal's privacy policy.
If you were directed to our e-commerce reseller FastSpring or BlueSnap to complete your purchase, the information our resellers collect is covered by their respective privacy policies (FastSpring privacy policy and BlueSnap privacy policy).
If you didn't complete your purchase from one of our e-commerce resellers, we also collect the country of the identifier associated with your computer or network (IP address) in order to comply with our tax obligations with the country's tax authorities.
When you contact our support, we log the email you send us in our helpdesk system, which includes your email address.
When you subscribe to Photomatix announcements or our newsletter, we collect the information in the form you submitted when you clicked on the 'Subscribe' button.
When you participate in one of our contests, we collect information in the form you submitted, and the images you uploaded when you entered the contest.
HDRsoft uses your email address only for the specific purpose for which you gave it to us.
We do not contact you except in response to your support request, or to send notifications or newsletters to which you have explicitly subscribed, or notifications of awards for contests in which you explicitly participated. You can unsubscribe from any notification or newsletter at any time using the link at the bottom of each message.
When you purchase a license for our software, we only use your email address to send your license information, or to retrieve information if you contact our support to request details related to your purchase.
We do not use your email address to notify you of updates on the software you purchased. If you want to be notified of updates, you need to explicitly authorize us to do so by subscribing to Photomatix announcements.
When you contact HDRsoft customer service or technical support, we use details you give us about your system and software, or images you send us, only to provide you with support. We may also use them internally for testing and product improvement purposes.
We do not use them for any other purpose unless you give us explicit permission to use them in some other way.
HDRsoft servers are located in the US (in Colchester, Connecticut).

At this time, we only use cookies when you visit the Store page of the HDRsoft website.
