Hoana Privacy Policy
Hoana respects your privacy and is committed to safeguard your personal information. This privacy policy discloses how we collect and use information about visitors to the Hoana website. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this privacy policy. By visiting our website, you are accepting the practices described in this privacy policy.
Information Collection
Hoana collects personal identifying information that you share with us in using or registering our site, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, a home, business, or other address, phone number, email address, password or other information when needed to provide a service or information you requested. We may also ask for additional information to participate in certain programs that may be offered from time to time. [If you have an account with us, you can update or remove your personal information by logging into our website and editing your account information.] When you browse the Hoana website our server automatically records visitor information based on your activity on the site, such as visitor IP addresses (the Internet address of your computer) and/or domain names. This information is not associated with you as an individual, unless you have previously indicated that you want Hoana to remember your login and password.
How We Use Information
Hoana does not share, rent, lease or sell personally identifiable information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this privacy policy. Hoana uses information for several general purposes: to fulfill your requests for certain products and services, to personalize your experience on our website, to keep you up to date on the latest product announcements, software updates, special offers or other information we think you'd like to hear about either from us or from our business partners, and to better understand your needs and provide you with better services. We may also use your information to send you, or to have our business partners send you, direct marketing information or contact you for market research. We do not otherwise share your personally identifiable information with such third parties, unless you have granted us permission to do so. If you have provided personally identifiable information to Hoana, we will provide you with an opportunity to limit promotional email communications from Hoana or authorized partners of Hoana by "opting-out" of receiving direct marketing or market research information. This means we assume you have given us your consent to collect and use your information in accordance with this Policy unless you take affirmative action to indicate that you do not consent, for instance by clicking or checking the appropriate option or box at the point of collection. In some cases, when applicable, we will provide you with the opportunity to "opt in." This means we will require your affirmative action to indicate your consent before we use your information for purposes other than the purpose for which it was submitted.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
Your personal information is never shared outside Hoana without your permission, except under conditions explained below. Inside Hoana, data is stored in controlled servers with limited access. Hoana may send your personal information to other companies or people under any of the following circumstances: when we have your consent to share the information; we need to share your information to provide the product or service you have requested; we need to send the information to companies who work on behalf of Hoana to provide a product or service to you (we will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose); or we want to keep you up to date on the latest product announcements, software updates, special offers or other information we think you'd like to hear about either from us or from our business partners (unless you have opted out of these types of communications). Hoana reserves the right to disclose your personally identifiable information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with legal process, (b) respond to any claims against it, or (c) protect the rights, property or personal safety of Hoana, its employees, its customers or the public. If Hoana is acquired by or merges into another company, the acquiring company will obtain all the information held by Hoana but will be required to continue to comply with Hoana's privacy policy as it may be updated from time to time.
Communication Information
If you communicate directly with Hoana by email or letter, Hoana may collect and store a record of your communication. Hoana may use your communication information to respond to your issues and inquiries. The communication information you provide to Hoana’s third party partners will also enable such partners to let us know that you have contacted them. Such communication information may be used to distribute information back to you about Hoana. Hoana’s website contains links to other websites. Hoana does not share your personal information with those websites and is not responsible for their privacy practices. You will need to check the privacy policies of those other websites.
How We Protect Your Information
Hoana uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Hoana and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission of information, Hoana makes commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems. However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. [To protect your privacy and security, we take reasonable steps (such as requesting a unique password) to verify your identity before granting you access to your account. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your unique password and account information, and for controlling access to your email communications from Hoana, at all times.] In the event that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, Hoana will promptly notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in this privacy policy, or as otherwise required by applicable law. It is the policy of Hoana to provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to our users via e-mail notice, written or hard copy notice, or through conspicuous posting of such notice on the Hoana website, as determined by Hoana in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Hoana reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to our users.
Cookies
Cookies are small data files that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them, and they record and store your information. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. The Hoana website may use cookies to collect this type of information to determine the usefulness of our website information to our users and to see how effective our navigational structure is in helping users reach that information. Acceptance of these cookies is optional; you may disable cookies or otherwise manage them through tools provided with your browser software and with third party software packages. Disabling cookies may restrict access to and use of certain portions of the website.
Child Protection
Hoana does not intend to collect information from individuals who identify themselves as under thirteen (13) years of age. Hoana does not knowingly solicit personal information from children under the age of 13 or send them requests for personal information. Hoana will not knowingly disclose personally identifiable information of children under 13 to any third party. Hoana will delete any information we receive from people we believe to be children under 13 from our database [and cancel any corresponding accounts].
Changes To This Privacy Policy
Hoana will amend this policy from time to time. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information we will make that information available by posting a notice on this site.
