This privacy policy describes how XenoCode uses and protects information that you give us. We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. If you provide us with personal information through XenoCode, you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement. When you make enquiries online we may ask for details such as an email address which we collect and add to our mailing list.


<h2>Website Visitors</h2>
Like most website operators, XenoCode 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. XenoCode’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how XenoCode’s visitors use its website. From time to time, XenoCode may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

XenoCode also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. XenoCode does not use IP addresses 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.


<h2>Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information</h2>
Certain visitors to XenoCode choose to interact with XenoCode in ways that require XenoCode to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that XenoCode gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who use our forms to provide a name and email address.

In each case, XenoCode collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with XenoCode. XenoCode 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, like purchasing a coworking membership.


<h2>Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information</h2>
XenoCode discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of project administrators, employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on XenoCode’s behalf or to provide services available through XenoCode, 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 XenoCode, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.

XenoCode will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to project administrators, employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations, as described above, XenoCode discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, if you give permission to have your information shared, or when XenoCode believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of XenoCode, third parties, or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of a XenoCode and have supplied your email address, XenoCode 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 XenoCode 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.


<h2>Use of personal information</h2>
We use the information you provide to register for an account, attend our events, receive newsletters, use certain other services, or participate in our project in any other way. We will not sell or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so.

We would like to send you email marketing communication which may be of interest to you from time to time. If you have consented to marketing, you may opt out later. You have a right at any time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes. If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please click on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email.
