PRIVACY POLICY
This site is part of the network of websites, including, (collectively referred to as the "Site") created and
operated by Hodei Technology, LLC (collectively referred to as "Hodei" or "we"). This privacy policy explains how we use any personal information we collect about you when you use this Site.
We keep our privacy policy under regular review and we will place any updates on this webpage. If we
make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will give you notice of such changes by posting the
revised policy on this Site, and where appropriate, by other means. This Privacy Policy was last updated
on September 15, 2022. By providing your written consent and continuing to use the Site, you are
accepting and consenting to the use of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU
The information we collect on our Site generally falls into the following two categories: "personal
information" and "non-personally identifiable information"; Personal information refers to information
that lets us know the specifics of who you are (for example, your name, job title, company, physical
mailing address, e-mail address, telephone and fax numbers and, if applicable, financial information
such as your credit card information). Non-personally identifiable information refers to information that
does not by itself identify a specific individual. If we do combine non-personally identifiable information
with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long
as it remains combined.
In general, we collect your personal information when you voluntarily provide it to us, such as when you
register with us or place an order for products or services. We also collect information when you
voluntarily complete customer surveys, provide feedback and participate in competitions. In addition,
our Site may use "cookies" to gather non-personally identifiable information.
COOKIES
Cookies are text files placed on your computer to collect standard internet log information and visitor
behavior information. This information is used to track visitor use of the website and to compile
statistical reports on website activity. For further information visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org. You can set your browser not to accept cookies and the above websites tell you how to remove cookies from your browser. However, in a few cases some of our Site features may not function as a result.
WHY YOUR INFORMATION IS PROCESSED AND HOW IT WILL BE USED
Personal information you provide to us is used to process your order, manage your account, deliver the
services you request (including communicating with you about your Hodei products, services and
subscriptions to our publications or software), and to respond to your inquiries and contact you about
the Site and/or our services based on your consent and may be used in a number of ways, for example:
​
-
subscriptions to Hodei publications, including emails notices, e-newsletters; and
-
to access certain features or functions of our Site.
In processing your order, we may send your details to our third-party product fulfillment agents, and use
financial information you submit or information from credit reference agencies and fraud prevention
agencies to verify your credit and collect payments for your purchases, orders, and registrations.
We would like to send you information about products and services of ours which may be of interest to
you. If you have consented to receive marketing, you may opt out at a later date. You have a right at any
time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes.
If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please email us at privacy@hodeitech.com.
DATA INTEGRITY AND PURPOSE LIMITATION
Hodei takes reasonable steps to ensure that the personal data that it processes is: (i) relevant for the
purposes for which it is to be used, (ii) reliable for its intended use, and (iii) accurate, complete and
current.
YOUR CHOICES
Hodei offers you the opportunity to choose or opt out of disclosure of your personal data to certain
third parties or use your personal data for a purpose that is incompatible with the purpose for which the

indicated below regarding the company's use or disclosure of your personal data.

without offering you an opportunity to opt out, including:

-
when Hodei believes disclosure is necessary to prevent physical harm or financial loss, or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity; or
-
in the event it sells or transfers all or a portion of its business or assets (including in the event of a divestiture, merger, consolidation, liquidation or bankruptcy). Should such a sale or transfer occur, Hodei will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use the personal data in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE WE MAY DISCLOSE YOUR INFORMATION
Other than as set forth above, we may use and/or disclose your information, including your Personally
Identifiable Information, in the following circumstances:
-
To enforce, and/or investigate violations of, our site Terms of Use and/or this Policy.
-
Although unlikely, your personal information may be disclosed to the governments, courts, law enforcement or regulatory agencies under a lawful order in a jurisdiction where you are located and/or where your personal information is stored and/or processed.

ACCOUNTABILITY FOR ONWARD TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA
​
Hodei may share your personal data with third parties as indicated above and consistent with its online Privacy Policy. Except as permitted or required by applicable law, Hodei requires third parties controllers to whom it discloses your personal data to either (i) subscribe to the relevant Privacy Principles or (ii) contractually agree that data will only be processed for limited and specified purposes consistent with the consent given by the individual, that the recipient will provide the same level of protection and that the recipient will notify Hodei if it makes a determination that it can no longer meet those obligations.

loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. We follow generally
accepted industry standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and
