How Plasman Protects Personal Information
No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is fully secure. While we use reasonable industry-standard efforts consistent with current banking standards to protect your personal information in transit (e.g. within a computer network) and at rest (e.g. in storage) from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information. In the event that we are required by law to inform you of a breach to your personal information that Plasman has collected, we may notify you electronically, in writing, or by telephone, if permitted to do so by law.
Other Important Information
The following additional information relates to our privacy practices:
• Transmission of information to other countries. As a multi-national company, we transmit information between and among our affiliates. As a result, your information may be processed in a foreign country where privacy laws may be less stringent than the laws in your country. Nonetheless, where possible we take steps to treat personal information using the same privacy principles that apply pursuant to the law of the country in which we first received your information. By submitting your personal information to us you agree to the transfer, storage and processing of your information in a country other than your country of residence including, but not necessarily limited to, the United States. If you would like more information concerning our attempts to apply the privacy principles applicable in one jurisdiction to data when it goes to another jurisdiction you can contact us using the contact information below. You may also request a copy of any Standard Contractual Clauses we use for the transfer of your data outside of the European Economic Area, which includes the categories of information (see our GDPR Privacy Notice).
• Third party applications/websites. We have no control over the privacy practices of websites or applications that we do not own.
• Changes to this Privacy and Disclaimer Notice. We may change our privacy policy and practices over time without notifying you. All visitors are responsible for reviewing and agreeing to any modified terms or conditions related to this. To the extent that policy changes apply to this Notice in a material way, the policies in place at the time that you submitted personal information to us will generally govern that information thereby with your implied or assumed consent.
