  • facilitate and fulfil a purchase through a payment gateway

The amount of personal information disclosed is minimised to what is directly necessary to accomplish the specified purpose.

Certain third-party service providers have their own privacy policies regarding the information 640East is required to provide them in order to facilitate a service. We recommend that you read their privacy policies to understand the manner in which they handle your personal information, as these services may be located in a different jurisdiction than you or us.

When / if you leave the 640East online store and are redirected to a third-party application or website, this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service no longer apply.

Security

Where legally compelling grounds exist we may disclose your personal information to the government and law enforcement; otherwise in the defence of legal claims; and if you violate our Terms of Service.

If 640East were to be acquired by or merged with another company, your personal information may be shared with them under the requirement that they agree to follow this Privacy Policy with respect to your personal information.

Our website is encrypted with SSL (secure socket layer) technology. This means that any personal information, such as credit card information or passwords are private when they are submitted to our site, through a secure connection. SSL provides our website the following important security benefits:

  • Privacy: encrypts the connection between the browser and web server and securely transmits information (e.g. login credentials) to prevent unauthorised parties from eavesdropping.

  • Data integrity: prevents unauthorised parties from altering data during transmission (e.g. during a contact form submission).

  • Authentication: protects against impersonation by requiring web server proof of identity.
