Protecting the security and privacy of your personal data is important to
Xepient; 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 Xepient may collect, how Xepient uses and
safeguards that data and with whom we may share it.
Through our Web sites, Xepient 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.
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 Xepient 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 Xepient affiliates.
Xepient 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 Xepient information
technology systems.
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.
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.
Xepient 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.
To protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss
or alteration and against unauthorized disclosure or access, Xepient uses
technical and organizational security measures.
Xepient Web sites contain links to other Web sites. Xepient is not responsible
for the privacy practices or the content of other Web sites.

correct, amend or delete any inaccuracies. If you have any questions or
