Privacy Policy
MMG
Commitment to Data
Privacy Protection
Protecting the security and
privacy of your personal data is important to MMG; therefore, we
conduct our business in compliance with applicable laws on data
privacy protection and data security. We hope the policy outlined
below will help you understand what data MMG may collect, how MMG
uses and safeguards that data and with whom we may share it.
Personal data
Through our Web
sites, MMG
will not collect any personal data about you (e.g. your name,
address, telephone number or e-mail address), unless you voluntarily
choose to provide us with it (e.g. by registration, survey),
respectively, provide your consent, or unless otherwise permitted by
applicable laws and regulations for the protection of your personal
data.
Purpose of Use
When you do provide
us with personal data, we usually use it to respond to your inquiry,
process your order or provide you access to specific information or
offers. Also, to support our customer relationship with you:
- we may store and
process personal data and share it with our worldwide affiliates
to better understand your business needs and how we can improve
our products and services; or
- we (or a third party
on our behalf) may use personal data to contact you about a
MMG
offer in support of your business needs or to conduct online
surveys to understand better our customers' needs.
If you choose not to
have your personal data used to support our customer relationship
(especially direct marketing or market research), we will respect
your choice. We do not sell or otherwise market your personal data
to third parties, except to
MMG
affiliates.
Purpose Limitation
MMG
will collect, use or disclose personal data supplied by you online
only for the purposes disclosed to you, unless the disclosure:
- is a use of the
personal data for any additional purpose that is directly related
to the original purpose for which the personal data was collected,
- is necessary to
prepare, negotiate and perform a contract with you,
- is required by law or
the competent governmental or judicial authorities,
- is necessary to
establish or preserve a legal claim or defense,
- is necessary to
prevent fraud or other illegal activities, such as willful attacks
on MMG
information technology systems.
Communications or
Utilization Data
Through your use of
telecommunications services to access our Web site, your
communications data (e.g. Internet protocol address) or utilization
data (e.g. information on the beginning, end and extent of each
access, and information on the telecommunications services you
accessed) are technically generated and could conceivably relate to
personal data. To the extent that there is a compelling necessity,
the collection, processing and use of your communications or
utilization data will occur and will be performed in accordance with
the applicable data privacy protection legal framework.
Non-Personal Data
Collected Automatically
When you access our
Web sites, we may automatically (i.e., not by registration) collect
non-personal data (e.g. type of Internet browser and operating
system used, domain name of the Web site from which you came, number
of visits, average time spent on the site, pages viewed). We may use
this data and share it with our worldwide affiliates to monitor the
attractiveness of our Web sites and improve their performance or
content.
"Cookies" -
Information Stored Automatically on Your Computer
When you view one of
our Web sites, we may store some data on your computer in the form
of a "cookie" to automatically recognize your PC next time you
visit. Cookies can help us in many ways, for example, by allowing us
to tailor a Web site to better match your interests or to store your
password to save you having to re-enter it each time. If you do not
wish to receive cookies, please configure your Internet browser to
erase all cookies from your computer's hard drive, block all cookies
or to receive a warning before a cookie is stored.
Children
MMG
will not knowingly
collect personal data from children without insisting that they seek
prior parental consent if required by applicable law. We will only
use or disclose personal data about a child to the extent permitted
by law, to seek parental consent pursuant to local law and
regulations or to protect a child. The definition of "child" or
"children" should take into account applicable laws as well as
national and regional cultural customs.
Security
To protect your
personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or
alteration and against unauthorized disclosure or access,
MMG
uses technical and organizational security measures.
Links to Other Web
Sites
MMG Web sites
contain links to other Web sites. MMG is not responsible for
the privacy practices or the content of other Web sites.
Questions and
Comments
MMG will
respond to reasonable requests to review your personal data and to
correct, amend or delete any inaccuracies. If you have any questions
or comments about the MMG Data Privacy Protection Policy.
