KenSoft Privacy Policy
Thank you for your interest in KenSoft products and services.
This privacy policy governs your use of KenSoft products and services and all other software, features, tools, add-ons and websites, offered by KenSoft (the "Products and Services").
KenSoft business model and privacy philosophy
KenSoft provides a variety of products and services. Some of our products are free, supported by unobtrusive advertisements within KenSoft's web sites and program windows. We also offer paid products and services.
We have designed KDM according to the standard "ad-supported" business model. Users can choose to receive KDM free of charge, and be exposed to standard conventional advertising (e.g. banners within the application window, just like AIM(tm), Opera browser(tm), MSN Messenger(tm) and most websites). Or users can buy a paid version, with additional features and no advertising. Either way, our users can enjoy a product, service and technology that took a lot of hard work and money to create.
We're wary of other kinds of advertising-supported software, like 'adware' found elsewhere, but we'll never track what sites you visit, nor will we bombard you with adware-type pop-up ads.
No matter which products or services you choose, free and/or paid, your privacy is important to us. We have chosen to undertake strict safeguards to protect user privacy, and we strive to meet and exceed industry standards. We welcome any comments and suggestions for improvement: [email protected].
This privacy policy governs your use of KenSoft various Products and Services.
This privacy policy explains the practices that apply to the information that you provide or that may be generated by your use of KenSoft Products and Services.

We are especially careful about the privacy of your Usernames and Passwords. We consider this information highly sensitive, and we treat it with the appropriate care. If your requests to KenSoft servers or your file downloads include Usernames and Passwords, we will always consider this information as Personally Identifiable Information. This information will be subject to the strict practices and protections which we offer to users’ Personally Identifiable Information.
In some cases, if you decide not to provide certain information or if you delete certain automatically filled-in information from certain KenSoft forms (e.g. email address), you may not be able to complete the applicable process.
You need to be aware that search related services provided by KenSoft (e.g., KenSoft search page, search box, suggested search terms, etc.) made available on our websites and applications are powered and provided by third parties with whom we have entered into agreements for making such services and features available to you. When using such search services and search related features, certain information typically shared with operators of search engines e.g. Google, Bing, such as the search term, IP address, will be provided to said third party service providers and used by them in accordance with their policies to provide the service to you.
How is the information being used?
The information is used to operate and improve the features, offerings and content presented to you by KenSoft; to streamline the use of KenSoft Products and Services on your computer, to personalize the content and advertisements provided to you; to fulfill your requests for products, programs, and services; to communicate with you and respond to your inquiries; to conduct research about your use of the Products, Services and/or web sites, offerings and advertisements presented on KenSoft Products, Services, email communication, web sites and pages; and to help offer you other products, programs, or services that may be of interest.
While using the Products and Services, users may receive in-context services, advertisement and offers (in the form of banners or textual references such as Google's AdSense(tm) ads on a web site) (hereafter: In Context References), to be presented within the product interface. These In Context References are selected based on non-personally identifiable information such as: which files were downloaded, the source server from which files were downloaded, a user’s geographical location, and a user’s operating system or browser type. Such In Context References, if presented, will always be offered and selected anonymously - without personally identifying specific users.
Your Personally Identifiable Information will not be shared with third parties unless you have consented to the sharing of this information. KenSoft may use your information to present offers to you on behalf of business partners and advertisers.

Your information may be accessed and disclosed if required by legal procedures.
In Context References
KenSoft does not gather or track any personal information of the users who view or response to In Context References, and KenSoft does not provide such information to advertisers when you interact with or view In Context References. However, by interacting with, viewing or clicking an In Context Reference, you are onsenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption that you, as an anonymous user, meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad. For example, if an advertiser targets its ad at the keyword "ICQ", the advertiser may reasonably deduce that a user downloaded a file named 'icq.exe' (or similar) and/or downloaded a file from the site www.icq.com.
