PRIVACY PRO SOFTWARE SOFTWARE

Some software produced by the KDE Community may include telemetry components, which provides details on the device itвЂ™s running on to us. As part of this functionality, details such as your search terms and sort order will be sent to the KDE Store, which will handle it in accordance with its privacy policy. This functionality is only activated when accessed by the user, and does not conduct any activity in the background. Get Hot New Stuff FunctionalityД¬ertain software produced by the KDE Community may offer functionality to retrieve new content and addons, through a system known as вЂњGet Hot New StuffвЂќ. An example of this would be the user using Dolphin to copy files from one cloud storage provider to another. Where information from other services is retrieved by our software, such as email messages or files from cloud storage services, this information is never transferred from the device except as the result of explicit user action. Where these periodic automatic checks do exist, the option will be provided to disable them and only the minimum information needed to perform the periodic check will be transmitted. In some instances, our software may also provide the option for periodic automated checks, such as to check for new email or system software updates. Examples of this would include visiting webpages, sending emails and downloading new content (such as desktop wallpapers).
