PRIVACY POLICY DATIMBI.COM
SCOPE. Datimbi respects the privacy of visitors to its websites, as a result, we have developed this website privacy statement. This website privacy statement applies only to the operation of websites owned by Datimbi Sàrl (“Datimbi”) that directly link to this statement when you click on “privacy statement” in the website footers.
PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED AND PROCESSED. Through this website Datimbi will collect various information about you as follows:
Identifiable Information Submitted by you. We will collect personal information from you that can identify you, such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and other similar information (“Your Information”) when it is voluntarily submitted to us. You may be submitting Your Information to us through our registration page or through a portion of the site that allows you to contact us. We will clearly indicate to you on this site when we collect this information from you.
Web Server logs. Like the vast majority of Internet websites, we automatically gather webserver log information from you when you visit one of our websites by the computer that hosts our website (called a “webserver”). The webserver automatically recognizes some non-personal information, such as your IP Address, the date and time you visited our site, the pages you visited on our site, the website you came from, the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows 2000), and the domain name and address of your Internet Service Provider (e.g., AOL). If our site is using cookies (which is disclosed below), the webserver will also collect this information. We often review the server logs to see what website pages are being visited to get a better understanding of how the site is being used by our visitors. This is popularly known as Web Statistics and allows us to maintain and enhance our service. In addition, in cases of system abuse, we may use this information in conjunction with your Internet Service Provider and/or local authorities to trace the source of any such abuse.
IP Addresses. This website uses Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider so you can access the Internet. Generally, an IP address changes each time you connect to the Internet (it is a “dynamic” address). Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection, depending on your individual circumstance, it is possible that your IP Address that we collect, or even perhaps a cookie we use, may contain information that could be deemed identifiable. This is because with some broadband connections your IP Address doesn’t change (it is “static”) and could be associated with your personal computer. IP Addresses are used as part of the webserver log information as stated above.
Cookies. This website uses a technology called a “cookie”. A cookie is a piece of information that our webserver sends to your computer (actually to your browser file) when you access a website. This section details what cookies we set, how to find cookies on your machine, and how to change your privacy settings to restrict the use of cookies.
Please keep in mind that restricting the use of cookies may impact your user experience, and may result in this (and other) sites becoming inaccessible for you. We use the following types of cookies on this site:
i) Site Usage Tracking
Our Web server will install a cookie on your machine in order to aid site usage understanding.

This cookie will remain on your computer indefinitely, even after you leave our site.
ii) Session Cookies
As you surf around our site, there are often times when we need to remember technical information about you as you surf page to page.

iii) Persistent or Login Session Cookie
When you log into a restricted area, we may set a cookie on your PC, to remember your login details.
