iConn, Inc. is committed to protecting your privacy and complying with applicable data protection and privacy laws. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) is designed to help you to understand what kind of information we collect in connection with our products and services and how we process and use such information. Throughout this Policy the term “personal data” means information relating to an identified or identifiable individual (i.e. a natural person).
“iConn” refers to iConn Inc., including all its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, assigns, predecessors, group companies, affiliates and subsidiaries from time to time (also referred to collectively as “we”, “us”, or “our”). You acknowledge and agree that your personal data collected may be used in accordance with this Policy by and for one or more iConn companies, which will be regarded, individually or jointly, as data controllers in respect of such data.
This Policy applies to personal data collected in connection with products and services offered by iConn or from other interactions with us where a link or other appropriate reference of incorporation to this Policy is made, for example, in connection with our products, websites, applications and other types of services offered by iConn typically in electronic form, as well as other services, such as customer care and warranty services, customer events, or promotions and campaigns.
We typically provide additional privacy related terms in connection with a particular iConn product or service. Such product or service specific terms prevail over this Policy to the extent of any conflict. Our products or services may also contain links to other companies’ websites and other third-party services that have privacy policies of their own. We recommend that you carefully read the privacy policies of such services. iConn is not responsible for the privacy practices or contents of any such third-party services.
Where a consent from you to the processing of personal data described in this Policy is required under the applicable law, such consent will be obtained by appropriate mechanism such as ticking a box stating your consent, choosing technical settings for a service or website, or other statement or conduct clearly indicating your acceptance to the processing, depending on the product, website, service or application you are using.

We may also collect other information you provide, such as your consents, preferences and feedback, information relating to your devices and other such information you provide us with.

Special Categories of Personal Data
We may collect your biometrical and health related data such as blood pressure, heart rate, fingerprints or similar depending on the service or product you have purchased. Users are requested to grant consent for such data collection explicitly per each service or product in question.

Development of Products and Services
We may process and use your personal data to develop our products and/or services.

We may also process and use your personal data to personalize our offerings and to provide you with service more relevant to you, for example, to make recommendations and to display customized content and advertising. We may combine personal data collected in connection with your use of a particular iConn product and/or service with other personal data we may hold about you, except where such personal data was collected for a different purpose.
Communicating with You and Marketing
We may process and use your personal data to communicate with you, for example, to provide information relating to our products and/or services you are using or to contact you for customer satisfaction queries. We may process and use your personal data for marketing.

In addition, some of our products and services may be used to promote products and services of other companies. However, iConn does not disclose your personal data to such companies for their marketing purposes without your prior consent.
Profiling/Personalization
We may process and use your personal data for profiling/personalization for such purposes as targeted direct marketing and improvement of our products or services. We may also create aggregate and statistical information based on your personal data. Profiling/personalization includes automated processing of your personal data for evaluating, analyzing or predicting your personal preferences or interests in order to, for example, send you marketing messages concerning products or services best suitable for you.
Transfers of Your Personal Data
We may disclose your personal data to third parties solely as stated below in this Policy, or as obligated by mandatory law.
iConn Group Companies
You acknowledge and agree that we may share your personal data within iConn group companies and may transfer your personal data for the use of other iConn group companies for the purposes set forth in this Policy, when a group company/group companies are involved in the provision of the services to you or to other group companies. This may include, for example billing and delivery of your purchases, provision of services such as customer service, development and maintenance of digital solutions and managing, analyzing and profiling/personalization of customer data as set forth above. Other group companies/brands of iConn, than the one you have separately subscribed to as a consumer, will not send you e-mail or text message-based marketing.
Opting-Out from E-mail/SMS-Based Marketing
You may opt-out from brand marketing e-mails by following the guidance in those e-mails (typically provided via “unsubscribe” link) or by contacting the respective brand/group company as set forth in the e-mail and in their web site. If you opt-out, we may still send you non-marketing e-mails, such as service notifications or other information or if you are a business customer, we may send business relation information. You may also opt-out from any SMS based direct marketing by contacting the respective group company/brand as set forth in their site or via SMS as may be applicable.
Service Providers and Other Authorized Third Parties
We may transfer your personal data to authorized third parties who process personal data on behalf of iConn for the purposes described in this Policy, such as e.g., technical, logistics, e-commerce, marketing and other service providers. Such parties are not permitted to use your personal data for any other purposes than for what your personal data was collected, and we require them to act consistently with applicable laws and this Policy as well as to use appropriate security measures to protect your personal data.
We may also transfer your personal data, including heart rate data, biometrical data or other health related data, to a service partner, if you use such services where a third-party company needs to process such data for the provision of the respective service or where you separately agree that a third party company may process your data in connection with the services or products of iConn.
International Transfers
Our products and services may be provided using resources and servers located in various countries around the world. The countries to which we transfer data outside of the outside the US include, but are not limited to: Brazil, Canada, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Malaysia, Mauritius, Mexico, Philippines, Russia, Switzerland, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, Ukraine and the UK. Therefore, your personal data may be transferred outside the country where you use our services, including to countries outside the United States and the European Economic Area (EEA), where the level of data protection may not be deemed adequate by the European Commission. In such cases we take steps to ensure that adequate protection for your personal data is provided as required by applicable laws. For international transfers of your personal data, we generally rely on agreements that are based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) of the European Commission. If you wish to know more about international transfers of your personal data, you may contact us via the contact details given below.
Other Disclosures
We may disclose and otherwise process your personal data in accordance with applicable laws to defend iConn’ legitimate interests, for example, in civil or criminal legal proceedings.
Mergers and Acquisitions
If we decide to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize our businesses in certain countries, this may involve us disclosing personal data to prospective or actual purchasers and their advisers, or receiving personal data from sellers and their advisers, for the purposes of such transactions. In addition, if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, such information may be considered an asset of ours and may be sold or transferred to third parties. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to try to require that the transferee use personal information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Data Concerning Minors
iConn does not seek to collect any information from or engage in any transactions with persons under the legal age in their respective country. Our databases may nevertheless contain personal data of children due to the fact that it is not always possible to determine precisely the age of the user. If we learn that a minor has provided personal information through the products or services, we will use reasonable efforts to remove such information from our files. We reserve the right to block the service from any person who is or whom we reasonably suspect of being a minor. iConn’s policy is to request that minors do not make purchases or engage in other legal acts on our products and services without the consent of a parent or legal guardian, unless otherwise permitted by applicable law. If you are a minor but have your legal guardian’s consent, you must be able to prove that such consent exists upon request.
Data Quality and Retention
We take reasonable steps to keep the personal data we possess accurate and up-to-date and to delete out of date or otherwise incorrect or unnecessary personal data.
Certain iConn products and services may allow you to manage your profile and the information in such profile. We encourage you to access your personal data via your profile from time to time to ensure that it is correct and up-to-date. Please remember that for such electronic services where you may manage your profile, it is your responsibility to provide us with correct details as well as to update the personal data you have provided us with in case of any changes.
We store your personal data only for a period necessary for the purpose in question or as long as required by applicable laws.
Data Security
iConn implements appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent and minimize risks associated with providing and processing personal data. While we make every effort to help ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee our security measures.
Such security measures include, where appropriate, the use of firewalls, secure server facilities, encryption, implementing proper access rights management systems and processes, careful selection of processors, sufficient training of iConn’s personnel involved in the processing, and other necessary measures to provide appropriate protection for your personal data against unauthorized use or disclosure. Where appropriate, we may also take back-up copies and use other such means to prevent accidental damage or destruction of your personal data. If a particular part of an iConn website supports on-line transactions, we will use an industry standard security measure, such as the one available through “Secure Sockets Layer” (“SSL”), to protect the confidentiality and security of online transactions.
Use of Cookies and Web Beacons
From time to time when you visit an iConn website, information may be placed on your computer to allow us to recognize your computer in the form of a text file known as a “cookie”. Our use of cookies is intended to provide benefits to you, such as eliminating the need for you to enter your password frequently during a session or the need to re-enter items you place in a shopping cart if you do not finish a transaction in a single visit. Cookies are also used for website traffic analysis and profiling.
Some of the iConn websites may also use other kinds of local storage technologies, such as Local Shared Objects (also referred to as “Flash cookies”) and HTML5 local storage. These technologies are similar to the cookies discussed above in that they are stored on your device and can be used to store certain information about your activities and preferences. However, these technologies may make use of different parts of your device from standard cookies, and so you might not be able to control them using standard browser tools and settings. You may prevent Flash cookies from being stored by following the instructions provided by Adobe.
iConn may use so called web beacons (or “pixel tags”) in connection with some websites. However, we do not use them to identify individual users personally. Web beacons are typically graphic images that are placed on a website, and they are used to count visitors to a website and/or to access certain cookies. This information is used to improve our services. Web beacons do not typically collect any other information than what your browser provides us with as a standard part of any internet communication. If you turn off cookies, the web beacon will no longer be able to track your specific activity. The web beacon may, however, continue to collect information of visits from your IP-address, but such information will no longer be personally identifiable.
If you wish to disable cookies, or want to be notified before they are placed, you may do this in your browser settings. However, we may not be able to provide certain services, or you may not be able to view certain parts of this site if you have disabled cookies.
Please refer to your device’s settings or your Internet browser’s “Help” section for more information on how to delete and/or disable your device or browser from receiving cookies or controlling your tracking preferences.
