Protection of your data

The calculator and the calculation module may read or write data on the RedMill Webserver. It is therefore important to know about RedMill's philosophy of the protection of your data:

As data can be transferred in two ways: the normal web-data which you will leave on the webserver when surfing the internet (communication data between your pc and the webserver). These data will be named as "passive data" (RedMill may add these data the installed version numbers and language).

The active transferred data, for example a feedback, will be named as "active data". Additionally transferred active data is statistically used only.

The basic rule is: the RedMill software will never transfer data to RedMill or leave data on the webserver without your action.

And: you can check all transmitted active data.

Check for newer versions
no active data is transmitted.

for statistical reasons, exclusively the actual date, the version numbers and the used language is stored in a logfile on the webserver of RedMill. You can check the transmitted data in the address bar of your browser.

Online-Feedback
will transmit apart from your message, name and e-mail address if entered also the following active data: version numbers, activated language and if your feedback has been published. The transmitted GUID is a randomized number without any further use but to mark your feedback with a unique number. The GUID does not contain any data which could be decrypted by RedMill.

You can check the active data transmission for the feedback by activating a log. For this you just set the "Log" entry in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Programs\RedMill-Rechner\ModCalc to 1. In this way a log file is created in the same directory as the calculation module whenever transmitting a feedback to RedMill with all active data.

Cookies
RedMill does not use cookies.

Use of the transferred data
RedMill will never hand out the transmitted data to any third party. The transmitted data serves for statistical use only.
