GDPR

• What is the GDPR?

  The General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy in the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA). It also addresses the transfer of personal data outside the EU and EEA areas. The GDPR's primary aim is to give individuals control over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.[1] Superseding the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC, the regulation contains provisions and requirements related to the processing of personal data of individuals (formally called data subjects in the GDPR) who are located in the EEA, and applies to any enterprise—regardless of its location and the data subjects' citizenship or residence—that is processing the personal information of individuals inside the EEA.

  The GDPR was adopted on 14 April 2016, and became enforceable beginning 25 May 2018. As the GDPR is a regulation, not a directive, it is directly binding and applicable, but does provide flexibility for certain aspects of the regulation to be adjusted by individual member states.

• To whom GDPR apply?

  All websites and entities that control or process the data of EU citizens, the GDPR is applicable to them irrespective of their location of legal business presence.

  Both EU and non-EU businesses who (i) market their products to people in the EU or who (ii) monitor the behavior of people in the EU should comply with GDPR guidelines and regulations

  All such business entities should work to assess their own data collection and storage practices to ensure that their business practices comply with the GDPR regulations.

  Identifying Information

  When you attempt our software download or submit form on our site, we collect certain personal information from you that can be used to identify you, including any information that we deem necessary to provide you with our Service or which you may provide to us voluntarily. The information we collect from you, to the extent that it is private, is disclosed only in accordance with our Terms of Service and/or this Privacy Policy.

  Non-identifying information

  Whenever you visit our Site, we may collect non-identifying information from you, such as your IP address, referring URL, browser, operating system, cookie information etc. Please note that these details are not useful to derive any of your personal details. We do not use this data to indirectly derive any of your personal information.

  Computer information

  When you install or activate ACTCAD, the software reads a small number of identifiers from your computer’s hardware — for example from the motherboard and the network adapter — and sends them to our licence servers, together with the name of the computer.

  We use this information for one purpose only: to issue and verify the licence for that computer, and to detect licences being copied to other machines. We do not use it for advertising, analytics or profiling, and we do not sell it or share it with third parties. Inside ACTCAD, access to these records is restricted to authorised staff who need it in order to resolve a licensing issue, and every access is logged.

  Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in preventing unlicensed use of our software (GDPR Article 6(1)(f)), and reading these identifiers is necessary in order to provide the licensed software you requested. ACTCAD licences are perpetual, so we keep these activation records for as long as the licence remains in force — they are what allows us to verify it. If a licence is cancelled or refunded, we delete the associated activation records within 12 months.

  If an automated licence check refuses your activation, you may ask for it to be reviewed by a person — please contact ACTCAD support.
