Cytoscape WikiWe respect the privacy of all Cytoscape users, and we do not collect any information on Cytoscape users except in the situations listed below. In no case do we attempt to tie any of this information back to a user, nor do we provide this information to any third party. This information is used only in the aggregate to generate statistics for our periodic progress reports, though we would divulge it to a law enforcement agency pursuant to a lawful request.
- On the Cytoscape download web page, we request your name and organization, though you are not obligated to provide it. When you actually download Cytoscape, we log the date and time and the IP address to which we deliver Cytoscape.
- For a news feed fetched for display on the Cytoscape Welcome screen, we log the date and time the news was fetched, and the IP address and browser signature for the workstation running Cytoscape.
This policy may change from time to time, and if it does, we will notify you via the Cytoscape Welcome screen news feed and via our normal mass notification media. We will also update this section of the user manual.
