Below is our privacy policy about personal data, which incorporates these goals.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Liven Studio 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.

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

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to WP Umbrella’s websites choose to interact with Liven Studio in ways that require Studio to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Liven Studio gathers depends on the nature of the interaction.

For example, we ask visitors who buy a licence for WP Umbrella to provide email address, country, name. Liven Studio collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with the service.

We do not store your payment information, but the third-party payment processors (Stripe) we engage may retain your payment information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms.

Liven Studio 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.

Even tough we do our best to use European based services, Some of those contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of the EU; by using Liven Studio’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Liven Studio 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, Liven Studio may disclose potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Liven Studio believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Liven Studio, third parties or the public at large.
