When you use or sign up for ADSCT, you voluntarily give us certain information such as your name, email address, and password. You can update this information anytime by logging in to your ADSCT account.

You may also choose to give us permission to access your information in other services. For example, you may link your Facebook, Google+, account to ADSCT, which allows us to obtain information from those accounts. The information ADSCT obtain from those services (e.g., your contact details) often depends on your settings or their privacy policies, so be sure to check those before you link other accounts.

We also get technical information when you use our services.

Whenever you use any website, mobile application, or another internet service, there is almost always certain in a sequence that gets created and recorded automatically. The same applies when you use ADSCT. Here are some of the types of information we collect:

When we use cookies, we may use “session” cookies or “persistent” cookies. For example, we may use cookies to store your ADSCT settings so you do not have to set them up every time you visit ADSCT.
