Question #1: What, exactly, is the UpToDate Messaging system? Answer: The UpToDate messaging system keeps you informed about the latest Alien Skin Software products, special offers, software updates and other news. When you receive a message, an unobtrusive visual cue announces, "Click here for new messages from Alien Skin." Click this link to read your new messages. [TOP] Question #3: Isn't UpToDate just another form of e-mail? Why do I need more of that? Answer: E-mail to our users is lost in the flood of spam. This results in users complaining that they don’t hear about product updates or new products until long after they are available. UpToDate gives us a way of communicating with you occasionally without shouting over the e-mail spam. We will only send UpToDate messages that are useful to you, like announcements of bug fixes, free stuff (like presets), and new products from Alien Skin Software. [TOP] Question #4: Is Alien Skin Software spying on me? Answer: No way! UpToDate is for sending useful info from us to you, not the other way around. No personally identifiable information is sent to Alien Skin Software. The only information that UpToDate sends is a list of your installed Alien Skin Software products. This lets our Web server decide which messages to show you. For instance, UpToDate will only tell you about an Exposure bug fix if you have Exposure installed. [TOP] |
