Visionary Machines LLC Privacy Policy

Version of August 1, 2020

Plain Language Summary

(1) We don't spy on our customers. (2) We will not share your information with any third party unless presented with a valid court order.

Calypso.software Web Site

Information we collect, and why: We use Google Analytics to collect statistics on visitors to the web site. We collect customer name, address, and contact information when people purchase a Calypso license. We use this information to provide service to our customers, including notifying them of bug fixes and new releases. We collect email addresses when people sign up for our mailing list. Privacy protection: Customer information is kept on a secure server at Shopify.com, the company that hosts our eCommerce site. We will not share customer information or email addresses with third parties unless required to do so by court order.

Calypso for Cozmo Software

Information we collect, and why: Calypso license activation is accomplished within the software by contacting a license server which logs the license number, the machine's IP address, and the date and time of activation. Calypso does not log any other information. Specifically, programs you write in Calypso remain on your hard drive and are not accessible to anyone but you. Images from your robot's camera are processed locally on your laptop; no images are uploaded or logged. However, if you make use of Calypso's speech recognition feature, which is built on the Google Chrome Web Speech API, the audio must be transmitted to a Google cloud server where the speech recognition is performed. Privacy protection: License activation logs are maintained on a secure server at Cryptlex.com. We will not share this information with third parties unless required to do so by court order. Protection of audio data sent to the Google cloud server for speech recognition is the responsibility of Google.

Cloud Calypso

Cloud Calypso, accessible at calypso-robotics.com, is implemented on Amazon's AWS cloud servers. Information we collect, and why: We use Google Analytics to collect statistics on visitors to the web site. Users may create accounts at calypso-robotics.com in order to save their programs in cloud storage, which we provide. User accounts are tied either to an email address which we verify, or to institutions that have purchased Calypso licenses. If you make use of Calypso's speech recognition feature, which is built on the Google Chrome Web Speech API, the audio must be transmitted to a Google cloud server where the speech recognition is performed. If you allow Calypso to access your webcam, those images are processed in your browser; no imagery is logged or transmitted outside of Calypso. Privacy protection: All user account information is stored on secure AWS servers. We do not share user information with third parties unless required to do so by court order. Protection of audio data sent to the Google cloud server for speech recognition is the responsibility of Google.
