We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Despite the precautions we take to protect your personal information, the unfortunate fact is that there is simply no such thing as a perfect security system. Also, we have no control over the security of the internet in general. As a result, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will never gain access to your transmissions or information, or that personal information will never be disclosed in ways not covered by this Policy.

When a Third Party acts as our agent, we will ensure that the Third Party is willing to enter into a written agreement requiring the Third Party to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the relevant principles.

Trans-Border data flows

In providing our services to you it may be necessary for us to forward personal information to relevant overseas Third Party service providers or our affiliates, licensees overseas. Please let us know if you have any objections to such transfers.

Security of information

We have implemented appropriate physical, electronic and managerial security procedures in order to protect personal information from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to transmit all data between browsers and our web server, where applicable. We use advanced technology to ensure security on all data transmitted via the Website.

As with any transmission over the Internet, however, there is always some element of risk involved in sending Personal Information. In the event of a security breach involving Personal Information, we may notify you electronically to the extent permitted by applicable law and you agree that we may communicate with you electronically for such purposes.
