Information Collected Via Technology – Do We Use “Cookies”? As you use the Seiseidou Site, certain information may be passively collected and stored on our service providers’ server logs, including your device information (e.g., Internet protocol address, browser type, device settings, and operating system) and usage information (e.g., the Seiseidou Site you use, the time and duration of your use of the Seiseidou Site, and other information about your interaction with content offered through the Seiseidou Site) (collectively, “Log Data”). We use Log Data to administer the Seiseidou Site and we analyze (and may engage third parties to analyze) Log Data to improve, customize, and enhance the Seiseidou Site by expanding features and functionality and tailoring them to our users’ needs and preferences. An Internet protocol address, or “IP Address,” is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. Your IP address enables us to identify your computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network, which includes the World Wide Web. Such general information, including cookies and click stream data, as mentioned herein, may be collected from you whenever you access the Seiseidou Site, whether or not you provide us with any other personal information. In some cases, your IP Address stays the same from browser session to browser session; but, if you use a consumer internet access provider, your IP Address probably varies from session to session. We may also use a person’s IP address for security purposes to fight spam, malware, and identity theft. We also use the IP address to generate aggregate, non-identifying information about how our Seiseidou Site is used. We also use cookies and navigational data, like Uniform Resource Locators (“URLs”), to gather information regarding the date and time of your visit and the solutions and information for which you searched and viewed, or on which of the advertisements displayed on the Seiseidou Site you clicked. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer’s hard drive while you are viewing the Seiseidou Site. They are used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current Seiseidou Site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about Seiseidou Site traffic and Seiseidou Site interaction so that we can offer better Seiseidou Site experiences and tools in the future. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to identify that you have logged into the Seiseidou Site and to tell us how and when you interact with the Seiseidou Site. We may also use cookies to monitor aggregate usage and web traffic routing on the Seiseidou Site and to customize and improve the Seiseidou Site. Unlike persistent cookies, session cookies are deleted when you log off from the Seiseidou Site and close your browser. You can manage your cookie preferences via your browser settings; however, if you choose to disable this function, your experience at the Seiseidou Site may be diminished and some features may not work as they were intended. Some third party service providers that we engage (including third party advertisers) may also place their own cookies on your browser. Note that this Privacy Policy covers only Seiseidou’s use of cookies and does not include use of cookies by such third parties.

Click Stream Data. When you visit the Seiseidou Site, we may also collect “click stream data” (e.g., server address, domain name). This information can be combined with information you have provided to us by registering, for example, which will enable us to analyze and better customize your visits. We may use click stream data for traffic analysis or e-commerce analysis of the Seiseidou Site, to determine which features of the Seiseidou Site are most or least effective or useful to you.

Retargeting Ads. The Seiseidou Site uses retargeting ads (also known as remarketing ads) to advertise online. Retargeting uses cookies from third party vendors like Google to track visitors. This tracking enables the third party vendors to display our ads to people on various sites across the Internet based on their visits to our website. Specifically, Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of the Seiseidou Site. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. If you wish to opt out of the use of such cookies, you can do so by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out webpage. You can also opt out of Google’s use of cookies on the Google Ad settings webpage.

Mobile and Location Information. Seiseidou Site features may be accessible from web-enabled mobile devices. The intent is to provide screens that are optimized for the size of the screen and operating systems. On some devices, functionality may be limited. If you use mobile-enabled services provided by the Seiseidou Site, we may receive information about you from your mobile device. This may also include information about your precise location if you have enabled location-based services on your mobile device. We may also receive information about your device and may have access to your camera, microphone, or other device services or hardware. Some devices may allow you to opt-out of this collection or access, and in those cases, you may be able to subsequently stop the collection or access. Please review your device settings for more information.

Information from Third Party Sources. We may receive information about you from publicly and commercially available third party sources, as permitted by law, which we may combine with other information we receive from or about you. For example, we may receive information about you from a social media site if you connect to the Seiseidou Site from that social media site. We encourage you to review the privacy policy and any terms and conditions for the social media platform you select.

Other Information We Collect. We also may collect other information about you, your device, or your use of the Seiseidou Site in ways that we describe to you at the point of collection or otherwise with your consent.

If you want us to delete your information, please contact us in writing with your request, at support@simfort.co  or via mail in accordance with the “Contact Us” section below. We will take steps to delete your information as soon as is practicable, but some information may remain in archived/backup copies for our records or as otherwise required by law. You can adjust your communication preferences at any time, including opting out of promotional mailings, from your account.

  1. OTHER SEISEIDOU SITE USER ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION. Portions of the Seiseidou Site, such as social networking sites, are provided to you so that you can post reviews and recommendations. As such, the main sharing of your information is with other Seiseidou Site users. By voluntarily disclosing information about yourself on the Seiseidou Site, including on your public profile, you share such information with other Seiseidou Site users. You understand and acknowledge that the content you share on the Seiseidou Site is information that may be publically viewable on a public forum – once you post your content, Seiseidou is unable to control what other users may do with that content.

You may restrict the audience for all or part of your profile or for certain content or information about you by adjusting the settings on your account.
  2.

For example, our web host stores the information that you provide us, and we may hire outside contractors to perform maintenance or assist us in securing our website. It is therefore necessary that you grant the third parties we may use in the course of our business the same rights that you afford us under this Privacy Policy. For this reason, you hereby agree that every authorization that you grant to us in this Privacy Policy, you also grant to any third party that we may hire, contract, or otherwise retain the services of for the purpose of operating, maintaining, repairing, or otherwise improving or preserving the Seiseidou Site or its underlying files or systems. You agree not to hold us liable for the actions of any of these third parties, even if we would normally be held vicariously liable for their actions, and that you must take legal action against them directly should they commit any tort or other actionable wrong against you.
  3. THIRD PARTY USE AND DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. Except as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, we do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share for marketing purposes the personal information that we collect with third parties, unless you ask or authorize us to do so.

However, we may provide your personal information to third party service providers or affiliates to perform business functions on our behalf or in conjunction with us. Our service partners may use your personal information to operate the Seiseidou Site and to deliver their services. For example, we may use third parties to help us make our products, goods, and services available to you, fulfill orders you may have placed, process credit card payments, provide customer service, ship postal mail and packages, deliver your mail and packages, conduct market research or information analysis, manage promotions, contests, and sweepstakes, and contact you in connection with the Seiseidou Site. We limit information provided to the aforementioned affiliate and third party service providers to the extent necessary for them to provide the services and require such service providers to promise not to use such information except as necessary to provide the relevant services to us. In these instances, we may need to provide your information to these third parties for such purposes. We will encourage our service partners to adopt and post privacy policies; however, the use of your personal information by our service partners is governed by the privacy policies of those service partners and is not subject to our control. Additionally, in the event we go through a business transition such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal information may be among the assets transferred. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and are permitted by this Privacy Policy, and that any acquirer of ours or that acquirer’s assets may continue to process your personal information as set forth in this Privacy Policy. We may also disclose your personal information if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to (A) respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or if we need to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims; (B) share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal or unethical activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use, or as otherwise required by law; (C) to protect our property, rights, and safety and the rights, property, and safety of third parties or the public in general; or (D) restrict or inhibit any user from using our Seiseidou Site, including, without limitation, by means of "hacking" or defacing any portion thereof.

These payment processors adhere to the standards set by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (“PCI-DSS”) as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.

  3. We are committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We use a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Even though we have taken significant steps to protect your personal information, no company, including us, can fully eliminate security risks associated with personal information. The Seiseidou Site has security measures in place to prevent the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information that we obtain from you. Please keep in mind, however, that whenever you give out personal information online there is a risk that third parties may intercept and use that information. While Seiseidou strives to protect your personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online. By using the Seiseidou Site, you expressly acknowledge and agree that we do not guarantee the security of any data provided to or received by us through the Seiseidou Site, and that any personal information, general information, or other data or information received from you through the Seiseidou Site is provided to us at your own risk, which you expressly assume.

  4. THIRD PARTY WEBSITES. The Seiseidou Site may contain links to other websites or mobile applications. This includes services in connection with third party "social media" and other sites that would allow personal information to be transferred to such third parties (e.g., Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Skype, Google+, etc.). If you choose to visit other websites or mobile applications, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those other websites or mobile applications, and it is your responsibility to review the privacy policies at those websites or mobile applications to confirm that you understand and agree with their policies. To protect your information, we recommend that you carefully review the privacy policies of other third party websites and services that you access.
