Privacy Policy

Website Visitors

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

Asciinema also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and e-mail adresses. Asciinema does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

You hereby agree to the registration and use of information described above.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Asciinema website choose to interact with Asciinema in ways that require Asciinema to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Asciinema gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for an account at asciinema.org to provide a username and email address. In each case, Asciinema collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Asciinema. Asciinema 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.

You hereby agree to the registration and use of information described above.

Aggregated Statistics

Asciinema may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. For instance, Asciinema may monitor the most popular or the most favorited recordings on the asciinema.org site. Asciinema may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Asciinema does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

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