Adware/Spyware
"Adware" and "Spyware" are terms used
to describe certain kinds of software applications:
Adware is a software program that specifically monitors
a person's Web surfing and disrupts it by displaying contextual
pop-up advertising. Spyware is a software program that surreptitiously
tracks personally identifiable information about a person
or organization. It will either save such information or
send it to third parties when the person is connected to
the Internet. Spyware is stealthy and may attach itself
to a person's computer without his or her knowledge or consent.
An example of spyware is a program that hijacks a person's
modem to change dial-up numbers or a keylogger program that
covertly records anything a person types, including passwords,
emails and credit card numbers. The Products do
not engage in any of these activities and are not adware
or spyware.
Installation
Products believes in clear, concise and complete
disclosure before you download and install our applications,
including a description of the primary functions of the
application. We believe that all language related to Products, whether appearing in the download process
or otherwise, should be non-technical, easy-to-read and
factually accurate, and not deceptive or misleading. In
addition to less-formal disclosures, all Products
will be distributed with an End User License Agreement (EULA)
that is featured prior to installation. And in conjunction
with these disclosures, all Products require the
consent of the user prior to installation.
Products does not believe that users should be deceived
into downloading or installing our software and condemns
deceptive software installation practices. Such practices
include, but are not limited to:
"Forced" or "Drive-By" Downloads: this
is a practice where a program is downloaded and installed
onto a user's computer without the user's permission, and
often without the user's knowledge. Malicious Web sites
and ad networks accomplish this result by exploiting security
flaws in the user's current software, often when the user
clicks to close or eliminate a seemingly benign advertisement.
Misleading Downloads: this is a practice where a company
misrepresents the nature of the program it seeks to download
and install onto a user's computer by claiming that the
program is necessary to the proper function of the user's
system. This is usually accomplished with a pop-up window
or banner ad that purports to have discovered a problem
with the user's computer-for example that the user's clock
is not properly synched, a virus or worm is present, or
the user is missing a vital system file-and then offers
the download as a "solution." Usually, there was
no problem to begin with and the download will have installed
adware or spyware onto the user's computer.
Undisclosed Downloads: this is a practice where an unexpected
program is bundled with another program that the user is
interested in, but the user is never informed (through the
EULA or a dialogue box) about that unexpected software until
it has already been installed onto the user's computer.
These programs are often hidden in the user's system and
not easily removable by the user through the Add/Remove
Programs Control Panel.
We prohibit our online distributors from utilizing these
techniques in connection with our software and prohibit
them from subcontracting to others who utilize these techniques.
Products monitors our distributors' compliance with
our policies and we continually work to implement technological
steps designed to prevent such coercive practices.
Installer Programs
When you download and install Products, you might
notice that an installer - in our case named "Easy
Installer" is temporarily added to your system. Easy
Installer facilitates the installation of our software applications,
and is not adware or spyware. After installation is complete
and you have re-booted your computer, Easy Installer will
be automatically deleted from your system.
Uninstall Practices
All of the Products are capable of being completely
uninstalled by end users in a straightforward manner and
without requiring undue effort or skill. For more detailed
instructions on how to uninstall a Product, please
read the FAQs posted on the Web site associated with your
Product or contact user support by clicking here.
Partner Practices
Products can be downloaded directly from our Web
sites. In addition, Products works with other companies
to market our products. We require that these partners observe
the same high standards we set for ourselves in connection
with our software products. For that reason, Products'
partners and distributors may not:Download any Product
through any form of nonconsensual download practice (such
as by engineering "drive-by" or involuntary downloads);
Download any Product using any type of click fraud
(such as by using "mouse trapping" or a "fake
close x" to mimic user-initiated click activity) or
through any type of misleading download;
Download or install any Product by any other means
that does not comply with these guidelines;
Alter the uninstall process of any Product or impede
in any way the uninstallation of the Product; or
Bundle any Product with spyware;
Products has an online compliance office responsible
for enforcing our policies on a variety of online consumer
issues including, among other things, policies related to
privacy and our software guidelines.
