We recognize the need for appropriate protections and management of personal information that you provide to us. This Privacy Statement will assist you to understand what types of information we may collect, how that information may be used, and with whom the information may be shared.

Scope

This Privacy Statement applies to VinaKom Communications nationwide.

What personal information does VinaKom collect?

Personal Information is information that can be used to identify or contact a specific individual, such as a name, address, telephone number or email address. VinaKom may collect certain personal information from customers, business partners, employees and candidates for employment. VinaKom does not collect personal information when you visit VinaKom's web sites unless you choose to provide such personal information. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include name, address, phone number, e-mail address, user IDs and passwords, billing and transaction information, and contact preferences.

How does VinaKom use personal information?

VinaKom will use personal information to provide customers and business partners with information and services and to help us better understand your needs and interests. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction or order, to communicate with you, to deliver products/services to you, to bill you for products/services you purchased, and to provide ongoing service and support.

VinaKom may share your personal information with third parties in responding to your requests for products or services or product evaluations. Generally, you will be given the opportunity to opt out of having your personal information shared with these third parties. However, if you request information on any of our products/services, VinaKom may provide your information to third party distributors and resellers who may subsequently contact you directly for purchase of such products/services. In these instances, you will not have the opportunity to opt out of having your information shared with these third party distributors and resellers.

To the extent that VinaKom uses personal information to email you about our product and services, VinaKom's email practices are in compliance with the U.S. and E.U. SPAM laws. Information about the U.S. and E.U. SPAM laws can be found at http://www.spamlaws.com/.

VinaKom also uses personal information to identify and consider candidates for employment opportunities within VinaKom. VinaKom uses personal information about its employees in connection with the administration of its Human Resources programs and functions and for the purpose of communicating with its employees.

Except as provided in this Statement, VinaKom does not use your personal information for a purpose other than the stated purpose for which such information is collected.

Personal information given to VinaKom may be transferred within VinaKom across state and country borders for efficient data consolidation, storage and simplified information management.

With whom does VinaKom share personal information?

VinaKom contracts with third party service providers and suppliers to deliver complete products, services and customer solutions. VinaKom may share personal information with its service providers and suppliers for the sole purpose and only to the extent needed to support the customers' business needs. Service providers and suppliers are required to keep confidential the personal information received from VinaKom and may not use it for any purpose other than as originally intended.

Human Resources data may be shared with third party vendors for the exclusive purpose of enabling the vendor to provide service and/or support to VinaKom in connection with these Human Resource programs and functions. Personal data concerning VinaKom employees is not shared with third parties for non-employment related purposes, unless disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to comply with any applicable law, legal process, or enforceable governmental inquiry.

Third party vendors, service providers and suppliers receiving personal information are expected to apply the same level of privacy protection as contained in this Privacy Statement.

Except as provided above, VinaKom will not share personal information with any other third parties without your permission. VinaKom will not sell, trade, or lease your personal information to others.

Choice and Consent

VinaKom does not require that customers, business partners or non-employee visitors to VinaKom websites provide VinaKom with personal information. The decision to provide personal information is voluntary. If you do not wish to provide the personal information requested, however, you may not be able to proceed with the activity or receive the benefit for which the personal information is being requested. Except as expressly stated otherwise in this Privacy Statement, you may opt out of having VinaKom share personal information with third parties as described in this Privacy Statement by notifying VinaKom in writing of your desire to do so.
