Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information
We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:
Tracking Technologies and Advertising. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this site may then be inaccessible or not function properly. If you at any point decide to opt out Google tracking technologies, please visit this link.
Promotional Offers from the Company. If you do not wish to have your contact information used by the Company to promote our own or third parties' products or services, you can opt-out by sending us an email stating your request to info@m2xgroup.com. If we have sent you a promotional email, you may send us a return email asking to be omitted from future email distributions. This opt-out does not apply to information provided to the Company as a result of a product purchase, warranty registration, product service experience or other transactions.
Targeted Advertising. If you do not want us to use information that we collect or that you provide to us to deliver advertisements according to our advertisers' target-audience
preferences, you can opt-out by emailing your request to info@m2xgroup.com.
We do not control third parties' collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. However, these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way. You can opt out of receiving targeted ads from members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") on the NAI's website.
Accessing and correcting your personal information
We will provide individuals with the right to access their readily retrievable personal information that we hold and to request a correction to their personal information, unless we believe such request would violate an applicable law or regulation or cause your information to be incorrect. Before a person exercises this right, we will need evidence to confirm that the relevant person is the individual to whom the personal information relates. In respect of a request for correction, if we think the correction is reasonable and we are reasonably able to change the personal information, we will make the correction. If we do not make the correction, we will take reasonable steps to note on the personal
information that the relevant person requested the correction.
If an individual wants to exercise either of the above rights, email us at info@m2xgroup.com. The email should provide evidence of who the relevant person is and set out the details of their request (e.g. the personal information, or the correction, that the person is requesting).
We may charge the person our reasonable costs of providing to them copies of their personal information or correcting that information if such request is manifestly unfounded, excessive or repetitive.
Please note that it is your responsibility to ensure that the information we hold about you is accurate and up to date. We rely on you to update us if your personal information changes.
Protecting your personal information
We will take reasonable steps to keep your personal information safe from loss, unauthorised activity or other misuse. Please note however, the transmission of information on the internet is never completely secure. If you provide us with personal information over the internet, the provision of that information is at your own risk. While we take reasonable steps to maintain secure internet connections, if you provide us with personal information over the internet, the provision of that information is at your own risk.
If you post your personal information on the website or M2X Platform, you acknowledge and agree that the information you post is publicly available to counterparties of any contract or potential contract formed on the website or M2X Platform which you are party to.
If you follow a link on our website or mobile apps to another site, the owner of that site will have its own Privacy Policy relating to your personal information. You should review that site’s Privacy Policy before you provide personal information.
Storage
Personal Information that we collect is either held by us at our office (refer to the Contact Us section below) or elsewhere on our behalf. For example, some information we hold may be stored in secure databases on our behalf by third parties overseas. A business that supports our services and products, such as our hosting provider’s servers, may be located outside the United States. This may mean your personal information is held and processed outside the United States. The use of these services, and the transfer of information overseas (if applicable) will not relieve us of our obligations under this Privacy Policy.
