These parties may use a cookie or a third party web beacon, or other technologies, to collect this information.

· Information from Other Sources
We may also obtain information from companies that can enhance our existing customer information to improve the accuracy and add to the information we have about our customers (e.g., adding address information). This may improve our ability to contact you and improve the relevancy of our marketing by providing better product recommendations or special offers that we think will interest you.
· Public Forums
Any information you submit in a public forum (e.g., a blog, chat room, or social network) can be read, collected, or used by us and other participants, and could be used to personalize your experience. You are responsible for the information you choose to submit in these instances.

How We Protect the Information We Collect
· Security Methods
We maintain technical, administrative, physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the confidentiality and security of information transmitted to us. To guard this information, the Sites use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL encrypts your credit card number, name and address so only Acexxon is able to decode the information.
· E-mail Security
Please note that e-mail is not encrypted and is not considered to be a secure means of transmitting credit card information. "Phishing" is a scam designed to steal your information. If you receive an e-mail that looks like it is from us asking you for certain information, do not respond. Though we might ask you your name, we will never request your password, credit card information or other information through e-mail.
· Information About Children
We recognize the particular importance of protecting privacy where children are involved. We are committed to protecting children's privacy and we comply fully with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Acexxon will never knowingly request or collect personal information from any person under 13 years of age without prior verifiable parental consent. If we become aware that an individual is under the age of 13 and has submitted any information to Acexxon, for any purpose without prior verifiable parental consent, we will delete his or her information from our files.
· Additional Security
We also ask customers to carefully review their accounts and immediately report any unexpected activity to Acexxon and their issuing bank or credit card company. We are asking all our customers to take measures to help protect information in their online accounts, including the following:
o Install the latest security updates and anti-virus software on your computer to help prevent malware and viruses
o Reset your e-mail account passwords frequently
o Use complex passwords (a minimum of 7 alpha/numeric cAsE sEnsitive characters)
o Do not use the same password on more than one website
o Do not share your password with others
o Sign out/log off website sessions so that your session is closed and cannot be accessed by another user on the same computer, especially when using a public computer or terminal

We do not sell or rent customer information to third parties; except, under limited circumstances outlined below, we may share information with third parties.
· Service Providers
We may share information with companies that provide support services to us (such as a printer, e-mail, mobile marketing, or data enhancement provider) or that help us market our products and services. These companies may need information about you in order to perform their functions. These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them for any other purpose.
· Legal Requirements
We may disclose information you provide to us when we believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law; to enforce or apply applicable terms and conditions and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property or safety of our company, our customers or others.

Acexxon Privacy Policy Scope
· This privacy policy applies to all current or former customer information collected by or provided to Acexxon International Co., Ltd.
· The Sites may offer links to other sites. If you visit one of these sites, you may want to review the privacy policy on that site. In addition, you may have visited our website through a link or a banner advertisement on another site. In such cases, the site you linked from may collect information from people who click on the banner or link. You may want to refer to the privacy policies on those sites to see how they collect and use this information.
International Customer Privacy
· In some cases, Acexxon has partnered with companies [e.g., FiftyOne, Inc., who does business under the name “FiftyOne,” and PayPal, Inc. (“PayPal”), collectively, “Vendors”] as outside vendors that we have selected to help us facilitate international transactions. We work closely with these Vendors to ensure that your transaction is handled with care and all the information you provide is secure.
· As an international customer, when you click on the checkout button, you will be redirected to a checkout page hosted by FiftyOne to complete your order. On the checkout page, you will be required to select a method of payment and submit credit card and other information to FiftyOne to complete your order. On the checkout page, you will be presented with FiftyOne’s terms and conditions which you must agree to in order to complete your order.
· Upon completion and approval of your order by FiftyOne, FiftyOne will notify us of the approval and we will process your order and cause it to be shipped directly to FiftyOne. In this process, FiftyOne will purchase those items in your order from us, thereby taking title to the items, bill your credit card, collect and remit any duties and taxes to the appropriate taxing authority and arrange for the delivery of your order. In this process, FiftyOne makes the sale to you as the merchant of record, but we are legally obligated to deliver your order as set forth in our Terms and Conditions.
· If you have questions about your order, you should direct them to us and not to FiftyOne.
· The Vendors may give you the opportunity to receive marketing messages from them, in which case you should refer to their terms and conditions for details about how they use your information.
· The Vendors have assured us that they will process information received from you with at least the same level of privacy protection as set forth in the US-EU Safe Harbor Framework as set forth by the US Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of information from European Union member countries and Switzerland. If you choose to provide us and/or the Vendors with information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information on servers located in the United States.
· Any information you provide us is controlled and processed by Acexxon International Co., Ltd., 106 Zhongxiao East Road Section 4, #295, 3F, Taipei, Taiwan or its suppliers (where indicated herein). As mentioned herein, your information provided at checkout will be controlled and processed a Vendor.
· Acexxon complies with the US-EU Safe Harbor Framework and the US-Swiss Safe Harbor Framework as established by the U.S. Department of Commerce and approved by the European Commission and the Swiss Federal Data Protection Authority. We conduct an annual self-assessment to verify that we are in compliance with the Safe Harbor Privacy Principles in addition to our own Acexxon privacy program assessments. Acexxon has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce and the European Union that our processing of personal data is in compliance with the Safe Harbor Privacy Principles. For more information about the Safe Harbor program, and to view our certification page, visit the Department of Commerce's Safe Harbor website. While the Safe Harbor Principles are designed to protect information originating in the European Economic area and Switzerland, our policy is to protect all international customer information in accordance with these Principles.
· Customers shipping internationally who wish to inquire about or update information or change marketing preferences or anyone who wants to receive information about our international privacy program should contact us directly using one of the following methods:
o Send an e-mail to info@acexxon.com
o Write us at Acexxon, 106 Zhongxiao East Road, Section 4, #295, 3F Taipei, Taiwan
· In compliance with the US-EU and US-Swiss Safe Harbor Principles, Acexxon commits to resolve complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your information. European Union or Swiss citizens with inquiries or complaints regarding this privacy policy should first contact Acexxon using one of the following methods:
o Send an e-mail to info@acexxon.com

o Acexxon has further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the US-EU and US-Swiss Safe Harbor Principles to an independent dispute resolution mechanism, the BBB EU SAFE HARBOR, operated by the Council of Better Business Bureaus. If you do not receive timely acknowledgement of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed by Acexxon, please visit the BBB EU SAFE HARBOR web site at http://www.bbb.org/us/safe-harbor-complaints for more information and to file a complaint.
