Your privacy

At Computer Connexion, we are committed to respecting your privacy. We recognise that when you provide us with information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner. That's why we have put a policy in place to explain how we collect, use, and in some circumstances share, personal information we collect when you visit this website ("Website") and purchase products and services from us.

What information do we collect and how do we use it?

At times, we may request that you voluntarily supply us with personal information. Personal information is information about you that is personally identifiable to you, such as your name, address, e-mail address, or phone number, as well as other non-public information associated with such information. Generally, this information is requested when you register for or use an online service or when you provide information in connection with a transaction or service.

• When you register we will collect your name, e-mail address, addresses and telephone number.
• When you enter a contest or other promotional event, we will collect your name, e-mail address, address, or telephone number, so we can administer the contest and notify winners.
• During provision of the services it is likely that we will collect and/or store details about your associates, customers, clients, suppliers or other contacts. We will not use such details for any purpose other than in connection with providing the services to you.
• When you register for an account or service, we will collect your name and e-mail address, and in some cases, your telephone number and address.
• When you provide us feedback (for example, through our feedback forms) or other correspondence, we may collect the information you submit.
• Your IP address, browser, reference site domain name, and the pages you visit on the Website are logged when you visit the Website. This data is used to improve the content and functionality of the Website.

We use the personal information we maintain about you to provide you with the services you request; measure consumer interest in our products and services; inform you about online and offline offers, products, services, and updates; customise your experience; resolve disputes; troubleshoot problems; collect fees owed; detect and protect us against error, fraud and criminal activity; enforce our terms of use and for other legitimate business purposes; and as otherwise described to you at the time of collection.  

We will occasionally send you information on special deals or promotions. If you wish to subscribe to our newsletters, we will use your name and email address to send the newsletter to you.

Links to other sites

The Website may contain links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to be aware of when you leave our Website and to read the privacy statements of each site that collects personal information.

How do we protect consumer information?

We use a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorised access, use, or disclosure. When you place orders or access your account information, we offer the use of an encrypted communication with our servers.

Although we have taken steps to ensure that your personal information is not intercepted, accessed, collected, used, or disclosed by unauthorised persons, you should know that we cannot fully eliminate security risks associated with personal information and technical mistakes are possible. We will make any legally required disclosures of any breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of electronically stored personal information via email or by conspicuous posting on the Website as soon as possible to the extent consistent with (a) the legitimate needs of law enforcement and (b) any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system.

What about "cookies"?

"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. Our cookies enable us to provide you with more personal service by helping us to identify our account holders and optimise their shopping experience. They do not include any data that will identify you personally. They will, however, allow you to use some specialised features. Cookies help us keep track of the preferences you specify. For example, when you tell us what in country you live, cookies enable us to provide the applicable content for you. Cookies also allow us to hold selections in your shopping cart when you leave a store on the Website without checking out. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser to prevent that if you would rather not store the information for future use. You can configure your browser to accept or reject cookies, or notify you when a cookie is downloaded. If you reject all cookies on the Website, your experience will not be as optimal as it could be by accepting cookies. Each browser is different, so please check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your preferences.

Your consent

The provision of your personal information to Computer Connexion means that you agree and consent that we may collect, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy. In addition, from time to time and where appropriate, we may request your specific authorisation or consent.
