GENERAL MATTERS

Overview

At NCT, protecting our users' privacy and security is a top priority. For this reason, we have adopted the following policy to advise you of your choices regarding the use of your personal information online. This policy describes what types of information we gather about you, how we use it, under what circumstances we disclose it to third-parties, and your rights to update or correct it.

Scope of Policy

This Policy applies to nctww.com. It does not apply to other companies' or organizations' web sites to which we link. You should carefully review the privacy policies of those web sites in order to determine how they treat your personal information.

INFORMATION ABOUT YOU

Information Gathered From All Visitors

Aggregate Data:

We gather certain generic information with respect to customers' use of our web site, such as the number of unique visitors, the frequency with which they visit, and the areas on the web site that they favour. These statistics are very much like television ratings that tell the networks how many people tuned in to a program. We only use this type of data in aggregate - that is, we look at the data on a collective basis, in summary form, rather than on an individual basis. This data helps us determine the extent to which our customers use certain parts of our web site, which, in turn, enables us to make it as appealing as possible. We may also provide statistical "ratings" about how our customers collectively use our web site to advertisers, sponsors, and other companies with which we do business ("Business Partners"). We do this so they, too, can understand how often people use their areas of the site in order for them to provide you with the best possible experience. These statistical ratings do not contain any personally identifiable information about you or any of our users.

Acces to and correction of your data:

We fully respect the law on Privacy Protection in relation to the processing of Personal Data. Thus, if you want to know which personal data we collect and why we collect them, or if you want to correct the data we collect from you, feel free to click here or to contact us at: NCT Holland BV, Minervum 7208A, 4817 ZJ  Breda - The Netherlands, phone: +31 765315780, fax: +31 765147482 , e-mail: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it . If you have subscribed to receive more news about us, you can always unsubscribe using the above link, the above contact details or the unsubscribe icon in our newsletters.

IP Addresses:

We collect and analyse traffic on our web site by keeping track of the IP addresses of our visitors. An IP address is a unique number assigned to your computer when you are using your browser on the Internet. We log this information so that we can monitor things like the number of visitors visiting the web site; however, we do not link your IP address to any personally identifying information.

Personalising Your Experience on the Web Site:

We examine customer traffic patterns and web site usage to help us enhance the design and layout of the site and make it easier to navigate.
From time to time, we may send you surveys or solicit your feedback. We will use the information we gather to improve our sites and provide a more meaningful experience for our users. We may also use the information to alert you to offers and products in which you have expressed an interest.

USES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

When you do provide us with personal data, we may use that information in the following ways, unless stated otherwise : we may store & process the information to better understand your needs and how we can improve our products and services. We (or a fulfilment house or other third party on our behalf) may use that information to contact you. We do not now and do not intend to sell, rent or market personal data about you to third parties. We will not make your e-mail address available to other parties. However, in the future we might occasionally send you e-mails about new services. If that were to be the case, you will have the explicit option to indicate that you prefer not to receive any e-mails from NCT in the future.

Disclosure Exceptions

Not with standing the above policies, we reserve the right to disclose your personal information to appropriate third parties if we are required to do so by law or we believe that such action is necessary:

• To comply with legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order;
• To protect the company's rights and property;
• To investigate reports of users sending material using a false e-mail address or users sending harassing, threatening, or abusive messages;
• To protect against misuse or unauthorised use of our web site and/or the NCT service; or
• During emergencies, such as when we believe someone's physical safety is at risk.

YOUR CONTROL OVER YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Opt-Out/Changing Your Status

At any time, you can change choices you have previously made as to the use of your personal information. Every communication NCT sends you will contain a clearly worded "Opt-Out" or "Unsubscribe" link allowing you to withdraw your permission for future mailings. Permission changes will be honoured as soon as technically feasible, usually about 7-14 days after receipt. If you choose not to provide the information we request, you can still visit most of the NCT Site but may be unable to access certain options, offers and services.

Editing Your Profile

If you are a registered member, you have the ability to review and correct your personally identifiable information at any time. Simply log into the "Member Services Page" area of the site and follow the links to "Update Profile."

OTHER MATTERS

Protection For Children

We are committed to protecting the privacy and rights of children online. We believe that children should be able to use the Internet in a safe, productive, and efficient manner and should be afforded the highest protection available with respect to their personal information. To that end, we have made it our policy to not collect any individually identifiable information from users whom we know are under the age of 13.

Sale of Assets

In the event that NCT and/or its affiliates or subsidiaries are ever sold, acquired, merged, liquidated, reorganised, or otherwise transferred, we reserve the right to transfer our user databases together with any personally identifiable information contained therein, to a third-party acquiring NCT’s assets. In the event we do so, our website and our newsletter will mention detailed information about who we transfer your personal data to, for what purpose they will process your personal data and how you will be able to access and correct your personal data after the transfer of your data.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

NCT will occasionally update this Privacy Policy in response to changing business circumstances and legal developments. NCT encourages you to periodically review this Policy to be informed of how we are protecting your information.

USE COMMON SENSE IN ALL YOUR ONLINE ACTIVITIES

Even the best policy can't protect your online privacy and security in all circumstances. Unscrupulous advertisers, hackers, and scam artists are constantly searching the Internet looking for new targets. Your best protection is to understand the limits to privacy on the Internet and use common sense in all of your on-line activities.
Be aware that e-mail is an inherently insecure form of communication. Remember that third parties are sometimes able to illegally intercept your unencrypted messages.
Be sure that you only disclose your e-mail address in circumstances in which it is safe to do so.
Beware of scams in which persons unknown to you request your screen name, password, or credit card information. Make sure you verify the identity of anyone asking for personal information.
Always monitor your children's on-line activities and educate them as to the rules for safe Internet use.
