Does Arektel Share Your Personal Information?

Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we do not sell our customers' personal information to third parties. Arektel only shares customers' personal information as described below and with Arektel Group of Companies, which are Arektel Group controlled subsidiaries that are either subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.

Transactions involving third parties:

We make third-party services, products, applications, or skills available to you for use on or through Arektel Services. You can, for example, order products from third-party vendors through our stores. We also provide services or sell product lines in collaboration with third-party companies, such as co-branded credit cards. When a third party is involved in your transactions, you will be able to tell, and we will share customer personal information related to those transactions with that third party.

Third party service providers:

To carry out tasks on our behalf, we hire other businesses and people. Examples include delivering mail and emails, processing payments, analyzing data, assisting with marketing, providing search results and links (including sponsored listings and links), transmitting content, determining and managing credit risk, and fulfilling orders for goods and services. These outside service providers have access to the personal data required to carry out their duties, but they are not permitted to use it for other purposes. They also have to process the personal data in a way that is compliant with this Privacy Notice and any applicable data protection laws.

Business transfers:

We might sell or acquire other companies or services as we expand our business. Customer information is typically one of the business assets transferred in such transactions, but it is still governed by any prior Privacy Notices (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Additionally, customer information will undoubtedly be one of the transferred assets in the unlikely event that Arektel Group or a significant portion of its assets are acquired.

Protection of Arektel and others:

We release accounts and other personal information when we believe it is necessary to comply with the law, enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements, or protect Arektel, our users, or others' rights, property, or safety. This includes exchanging information with other businesses and organizations to combat fraud and reduce credit risk.

Other than as stated above, you will be notified when personal information about you may be shared with third parties, and you will have the option not to share the information.

• When it comes to credit card data, we adhere to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
• We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage, and disclosure of personal customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may ask you to verify your identity before we disclose personal information to you.
