Help FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

JS Classes Repository is a service created in 2010 as a means of distributing freely available scripts of objects written in the JavaScript programming language. The goal of this service is to build a base of programming components ready to be used in applications written in JavaScript.

The repository contains scripts of JavaScript objects contributed by many developers interested in submitting their work. You may browse the available classes by entering the browse page.

To contribute, first you need to register. Once you have logged in, you create packages for your classes. Then you may upload the files the files to the packages of your classes.

The site registered users may be notified by e-mail when a new class is added or updated.

This site does not impose a requirement to register in order to download any classes. However, authors have the option of setting whether or not users are required to register and login in order to download the files of their packages.

If users are not logged when they download a package, it is not possible for the site to keep track of the users that downloaded the package. Therefore, many authors prefer to keep the login requirement, so the downloads of their packages can be accounted for and the packages can feature in the top download charts.

Also, when a package is updated, the site can notify by e-mail users who were logged in when they downloaded that package. Users that are not interested in being notified by e-mail may set their personal options to not receive such notifications.

Many authors appreciate this automated notification service as it helps keep their package users up to date. Sending e-mail notifications when a package is updated also helps authors saving time providing support to users who might not have upgraded to newer versions with bug fixes and improved features.

The registration in this site is absolutely free of charge.

Users that purchase premium subscriptions may request a refund when they wish to cancel a subscription upto 7 days after it was automatically renewed and they did not cancel before the subscription period ended.

Refund requests should be sent to the site contact address.

No personal information (name, e-mail address, birth date and country of origin) supplied by registered users is shared with any entity unrelated with the site, apart from in the following two specific cases:

1. Authors who submit content to the site and have their personal details exposed on the same pages on which their content is published.

2. Users who claim prizes in contests organized by the site, in which the users voluntarily participate and authorize the site to supply their e-mail address to the sponsors who will contact them to deliver the prizes.

These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

No. As stated in the policy privacy, this site will not share your e-mail address with any entity unrelated with the site.

The registered users' e-mail address is required mainly to prevent users creating multiple accounts that could be used to distort the download accounting statistics or to commit fraud in the several types of voting systems on the site.

The site also uses the registered users' e-mail address to send messages of their interest through several types of site mailing lists, like for instance alert messages when new content is available or newsletters with important announcements related to site features.

Users who do not wish to receive the site newsletters and alert messages, can unsubscribe from them by following the instructions at the bottom of such messages.

One way to unsubscribe from a mailing list is to send a blank message to an address mentioned at the bottom of the mailing list messages you receive. In response, the site will send you another message with the URL of a special page that you need to access to confirm the unsubscribe request.

When unsubscribing by e-mail, make sure you are sending a message from the same e-mail address used to subscribe. Otherwise, the site may not find your account and your unsubscription request is ignored.

Note that there are several types of mailing lists. Users can only send one unsubscribe request by e-mail at a time.

You should get a message with further instructions in response to your unsubscription request. If you do not get the message in 24 hours after you send your request, please contact the site administration for further assistance.

An alternative way to unsubscribe is to log in the user options page and uncheck the options respective to the mailing lists you are not interested. This way multiple list can be unsubscribed in one go.

This may happen under several circumstances:

1. You have sent an unsubscribe request message by e-mail but you have not confirmed the request. When the site receives an unsubscribe request message, it sends a message to the user with an URL of a page that the user has to access to confirm the request and complete the unsubscribe process.

If you have not gone to the page mentioned in the confirmation request message, you need to go there or else you remain subscribed. If you did not receive that message yet, please wait at least 24 hours and try again.

2. You may have unsubscribed from a mailing list that has queued a message for you but it is not possible to cancel that delivery. If you have unsubscribed recently, please allow at least 24 hours to let the mailing list system finish current deliveries that may be in progress.

3. The site has several types of mailing lists. You may have unsubscribed only from one mailing list but you have not unsubscribed from others. In this case, follow the instructions to unsubscribe.

4. You may have another account under a different e-mail address. Take a look at the To: header of the messages that you receive to determine the e-mail address of that account. When you send the unsubscribe request message, make sure that the From: header of that message indicates that account e-mail address.

This site does not support permanent removal of accounts. This is necessary to prevent the creation of multiple accounts with the same access name or e-mail address.

If the site permanently deleted existing accounts it would not have a way to prevent that new users create accounts with the same credentials of accounts that were deleted. The existance of multiple accounts of with the same credentials may allow badly intentioned users to commit fraud that must be avoided like in the top charts and contests organized by the site.

The fact that this site does not delete accounts is explained in the terms of use that all users must read and agree before they are allowed to register.

If you want to make sure that the site will never send you any more newsletters, alerts or e-mail messages of any other kind, please follow the instructions to unsubscribe.

If you are concerned with the privacy of your account information, rest assured that this site will never share any data of your account with anybody outside the site, as stated in the site privacy policy.

There are several opportunities to advertise on this site as a sponsor. Please visit the sponsorship page and submit the sponsor inquiry form with details about your advertising purposes.
