Privacy Policy
General Information
Our Company and affiliates (collectively, the “Double A”) respect the privacy
of our customers, business partners and employees. We recognize the need for appropriate
protections and management of your personal information that you provide to us.
Double A has therefore established this Privacy Policy to assist you to understand
what information we collect and how that information is used.
What personal information does Double A collect?
Personal Information is information that can be used to identify or contact a
specific individual, including, but not limited to, a name, address, telephone number
or email address. Double A may collect certain personal information from customers,
business partners, employees and candidates for employment. During entering into
this web site, you are consenting to our use of your personal information as set
out in this Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions of this web site. Please do
not send us any personal information if you do not intend that information to be
used by us in this manner.
How does Double A use personal information?
Double A 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 redeem, and to provide ongoing service and support. Occasionally we may use
your information to contact you to complete surveys that we use for marketing and
quality assurance purposes. Personal information collected online may be combined
with information you provide to Double A through other sources such as trade shows
or seminars.
Double A may disclose your personal information with third parties with regard
to your requests for products or services or product evaluations. Also, we may on
occasion allow selected partners to send you special offers in blind mailings. Generally,
you will be given the opportunity to opt out of having your personal information
disclosed to these third parties. However, if you request information on any of
our products/services, Double A may provide your information to third party distributors
and resellers who may subsequently contact you directly to purchase such products/services.
Except as provided in this Statement, Double A does not use your personal information
for a purpose other than the stated purpose for which such information is collected.
Personal information given to Double A may be transferred across state and country
borders for data consolidation, storage and simplified information management throughout
our worldwide properties.
We established a global network comprised of offices, data centers, trusted marketing
partners, service providers, customer contact centers, and trained associates around
the globe. The nature of our business and our operations require us to transfer
your personal information to other group companies, centers of operations, data
centers, or service providers that may be located in countries outside of your own.
With whom does Double A disclose personal information?
Double A may contract with third parties, who are service providers and/or suppliers,
to deliver complete products, services and customer solutions. Double A may disclose
your 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 Double A and may not use it for any purpose other than as originally
intended. We will, nevertheless, not sell or provide your personal information
to other third parties unless otherwise provided herein.
Third parties receiving personal information are expected to apply the same level
of privacy protection as contained in this Privacy Statement.
Except as provided above, Double A will not disclose personal information with
any other third parties without your permission, unless required by, or in connection
with, law enforcement action, subpoena or other litigation, or applicable law.
Choice and Consent
Double A does not require that you have to provide Double A 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 your personal information disclosed to third parties as described in this
Privacy Statement by notifying Double A in writing of your desire to do so.

to reproduce their material on this web site) own all intellectual property rights

Access to and accuracy of your information

online access and the opportunity to change your information. Please note that in
an effort to protect your privacy and security from any unauthorized disclosure
of your personal information, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your
identity, such as a password and user ID, before granting access to your data.
If, upon review, you wish to deactivate your profile, or update your personal
information, we will endeavor to do so in a timely manner. Occasionally, information
that you request to be removed will be retained in certain files for a period of
time in order to properly resolve disputes or to troubleshoot problems. In addition,
some types of information may be stored indefinitely on "back up" systems
or within log files due to technical constraints, or financial or legal requirements.

be completely removed from our databases in response to your request for deactivation.

or permanently, at any time without notice. Any of the material on our web site
may be out of date at any given time, and we are under no obligation to update such
