When the trial period for this free trial version of Babylon-Pro expires, if you continue using the trial version without purchasing Babylon-Pro, an additional component will be installed on your computer and Babylon will become "adware".
This means that we have partnered with Cydoor Technologies to deliver value-added Web content in the form of banner ads, e-commerce offers and news headlines, that will appear in the main window of your Babylon tool. Cydoor Technologies is a licensee of the TRUSTe(TM) Privacy Program. Additionally, Cydoor Technologies created the technology that enables Babylon to show these ads, and provides its technology to software developers to implement in software programs.
For an ad free version of Babylon, buy Babylon-Pro.
How does Cydoor work?
The Cydoor component of this software is simply a caching mechanism, which stores ads on your hard drive, and displays them only while the software program is open. Additionally, the component deletes old ads and contacts Cydoor's servers in order to receive new ones. To do this, the Cydoor component uses your Internet connection, however it is especially designed to take up minimum bandwidth on your line, so it should not interrupt you in any way. Additionally, each ad banner on your hard disc takes up about 10 KB.
Finally, be assured that respecting and maintaining your privacy is Babylon's and Cydoor's top priority, both ethically and legally. If you have any questions or concerns, please visit the Cydoor website, www.Cydoor.com, where you can review their privacy statement.
