Privacy Policy

Introduction

We at TELEPHONYWORLD and our affiliated companies worldwide are committed to respecting your online privacy and recognize your need for appropriate protection and management of any personally identifiable information ("Personal Information") you share with us.

TELEPHONYWORLD has established this Online PRIVACY POLICY so that you can understand the care with which we intend to treat your Personal Information.

Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, a home or other physical address and an email address or other contact information. In general, you can visit TELEPHONYWORLD's Web pages without telling us who you are or revealing any Personal Information about yourself.

If you choose to provide us with your Personal Information on the Web, we may transfer that Information within TELEPHONYWORLD or to TELEPHONYWORLD's third-party service providers, across borders, and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world.

TELEPHONYWORLD strives to comply with all applicable laws around the globe that are designed to protect your privacy. Although legal requirements may vary from country to country, TELEPHONYWORLD intends to adhere to the principles set forth in this Online PRIVACY POLICY even if, in connection with the above, we transfer your Personal Information from your country to countries that may not require an "adequate" level of protection for your Personal Information. In other words, our goal is to provide protection for your Personal Information no matter where that Personal Information is collected, transferred, or retained.

Sometimes the purpose statement for our web pages are set forth in privacy policies specifically set forth or linked to from that page.

Choice

You may choose whether or not to provide Personal Information to TELEPHONYWORLD. The notice we intend to provide where TELEPHONYWORLD collects Personal Information on the Web should help you to make this choice.
