  "Not comfortable with privacy policy"

  by CrapulentCretin on June 23, 2007

  Pros: Description sounded promising but I canceled the installation due to the privacy policy.

  Cons: I was not comfortable with the privacy policy so I canceled the installation.

  Although "You do not need to provide any personal information in order to download and use the Orbit Downloader", it associates a unique number with your copy of the application and sends this number along with the URLs you download and the page you download from (referrer).

  See if this is okay with you before you use it.

  Excerpts from the privacy policy:-

  "The Orbit Downloader automatically sends only standard, limited information to OrbitDownloader.com, which may be retained in Orbit Downloader's server logs.

  ...

  If you use Orbit Downloader to download files, then Orbit Downloader will send the log information and additional information, such as the URLs you download, the page you download from ...

  ...

  ... your copy of Orbit Downloader includes a unique application number. When you install Orbit Downloader, this number and a message indicating whether the installation succeeded are sent back to OrbitDownloader.com. Also, when Orbit Downloader ... downloads a file, the current version number and the unique application number are sent to OrbitDownloader.com. The unique application number is required for Orbit Downloader to work and cannot be disabled."
