Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes your privacy rights regarding our collection, use, storage, sharing and protection of your personal information. Personal information is information that can be used to identify an individual customer, whether it is name, address, national ID number or other information that provides uniquely identifying characteristics (“Personal Information”).

This Privacy Policy applies to all Codex, Inc. (hereafter “Codex”) owned software, products, services, websites, technologies, applications, features, functions, content, tools, and any other Codex offerings (collectively “Codex Services”). This Privacy Policy forms part of the Terms of Service, available at www.tradecodex.com/legal.html

This privacy policy will notify you of the following:
• What personally identifiable information is collected from you through the Codex Services, how it is used and with whom it may be shared.
• What choices are available to you regarding the use of your data.
• The security procedures in place to protect the misuse of your information.
• How you can correct any inaccuracies in the information.

CONSENT AND POLICY MODIFICATION
You accept this Privacy Policy when you sign up for, access, purchase, or use the Codex Services. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use any of the Codex Services. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change this Privacy Policy at any time by posting a revised version on our website. Changes will be effective immediately for new users and 30 days following the posting for existing customers. Your continued use of Codex Services 30 days following such posting means you accept those changes.

INFORMATION COLLECTION, USE, AND SHARING
We are the sole owners of the information collected from the Codex Services. We only have access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.

We will use your information to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, or as is reasonably necessary for us to provide the Codex Services.

Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.

SECURITY
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the Codex Services, your information is protected both online and offline.

Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the individual Codex Service you are using.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

COOKIES
We use "cookies" in the operation of the Codex Services. A cookie is a piece of data stored on your hard drive that helps us improve your access to the Codex Services and identify repeat users of the Codex Services. For instance, when we use a cookie to identify you, you may not have to log in using a password more than once, thereby saving time while using the Codex Services. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance our products and services.
Some of our business partners may use cookies in the Codex Services (for example, advertisers). However, we have no access to or control over these cookies.

SHARING
We share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify any individual person.

We partner with another party to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services. These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.

We use an outside credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond filling your order.

LINKS
The Codex Services contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave the Codex Services and to read the privacy statements of any other site that collects personally identifiable information.

SURVEYS

Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and you may choose whether or not to participate and therefore disclose this information.
