Privacy Policy
We are ourselves extremely sensitive to the issue of privacy, and therefore deeply respect yours. At the same time, knowing information about how you use our products helps us build better products for you. With your permission, we have balanced these needs in favor of your privacy as much as possible.
Our data sharing policy is straightforward: we will never share your information with anyone unless required by court order.
Privacy Policy in Summary
You would choose whether to send us your usage information from any of our apps (none do any such data gathering today). Our website gathers only the most basic information so that we know that people are viewing it. Future needs will follow as strict a regimen as possible to protect your privacy.

When using this web site
When you visit our website, we collect information using Google Analytics. It does not identify you personally, but it allows us to see how many people have visited the web site, whih pages were viewed on a given day, which locations (country and, in some cases, city) they were viewed from, and information about the browser used (browser type, language, whether java is enabled, etc.). Google uses cookies to keep a count of new or returning visitors to the website. This information will help us decide when and if another language should be provided, where there is interest in our products, whether marketing efforts in a particular country are working, etc. The java information, for example, was very important in helping us discover that many people had java disabled and thus could not even view the latest version of the site! In sum, Analytics are very useful to us, and, we hope, do not make you uncomfortable by giving up a small amount of information about you. At most, if you were the only person viewing the website on a given day, we could see that someone from country or city X visited the site using Safari and looked at y and z pages.

Future
Applications may collect information in the future, but you would always be asked for your permission before the application sent any infomration to us, and that information would not identify you personally. It might include information such as what screens in the application you viewed, which buttons you pressed, how often you started the application, and other information that could help us improve the application (e.g. fixing usability problems or determining which features people tend to use). In order to do this, we would create an identifier so that information from your device sent at separate times could be matched together. Again, if you did not want this information sent to us, you could simply decline to give permission. There would always be an option to turn this kind of data sharing off.

Specifics may change over time, but our intent will always stay the same: to protect your privacy and data, which is solely your own.
