Your Privacy

Your privacy is of great importance to us. As a user of this WEB SITE (the “Site”), you are valued by us and we will take appropriate measures to protect the information provided by and collected from you in the Site in connection with the functions, facilitations, products, and services offered on our Site.

How Personal Information is Collected and Used

We only request and use information absolutely essential to complete a transaction, respond to your requests for information on our products or services, and to inform you of services we think may be interest to you. This Personal Information may include information such as your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address. When you browse our store, we automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.  But we do not automatically collect Personal Information without your knowledge.

Consent

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only. If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say decline.

If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us at info@navienmate.com or mailing us at the address below.

Disclosure of Personal Information

In certain circumstances, we may be compelled by law to disclose your Personal Information, such as in connection with a lawsuit or other legal proceeding. In the event disclosure is required, we will use reasonable efforts to try to secure Personal Information, including prohibiting use of the information for any commercial purpose.

In addition, we reserve the right to disclose certain information when, in our sole discretion, we determine that such disclosure is necessary to protect NAVIEN or its employees, their right or property, or to protect the physical safety or health of employees of NAVIEN or a member of the general public. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers or government agencies in connection with issues related to fraud or government subpoenas, search warrant, statute or court order, or any valid administrative request from a law enforcement agency.

Protection of Information

NAVIEN will maintain the confidentiality of the information it collects. We maintain internal practices that help protect the security and confidentiality of this information by limiting employee access to and use of this information. To protect your Personal Information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.

Sharing of Information with Third Parties

NAVIEN may share your personal information with carefully selected outside companies or business partners who may directly market their products or services to you if we feel that they offer products or services that may be of interest to you. In some instances we may provide to selected and reputable third party vendors collected statistical information about our members, our sales, and information related to our site, but this will never include personal information.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this policy, NAVIEN may share any information we possess, subject to applicable legal requirements, when we believe it is necessary to prevent or investigate fraud, comply with the law or to otherwise protect the rights or property of users of our Site and our own interests or property.

We may remarket your information. Remarketing is a way for us to connect with users, based upon your past interactions with the NAVIEN website. Third-party marketing vendors may be hired by NAVIEN to perform remarketing services. As a result, third-party vendors, including Google, may show NAVIEN ads on sites on the internet. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to NAVIEN’s website. Users may opt out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page at http://www.google.com/privacy_ads.html. This information is used only for remarketing purposes and will not be used by them for any other purpose. 

We may share your information in a business transfer. As with any other business, we could merge with, or be acquired by another company. If this occurs, the successor company would acquire the information we maintain, including personally identifiable information. However, personally identifiable information would remain subject to this Privacy Policy.

Non-Confidential Information

If you sent us ideas, comments, suggestions, or questions regarding NAVIEN’s products or services or the content of this site, NAVIEN may use, disclose, or distribute the information to others without your permission or knowledge. NAVIEN may use ideas, concepts, or techniques you send us for any purpose, including to develop or market our products. If you want confidential treatment of any ideas, concepts, or techniques please write to the address below.

Links to Third Party Sites

You may be able to access third party web sites through links available on this Site. You understand and agree that your use of such third party sites, including affiliates’ sites, will be governed by the privacy statements of those sites and not by this Privacy Policy.

Third Party Services 

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
