It is a commitment to respect privacy and practices governing the way we collect, store and use information about people. Our charter for protecting privacy is easy to find in as much as it is located on the home page; it has links on all pages in the site where personal information is required. In places where such information is collected, additional explanations may be provided, as needed, about how it will be used.

This charter, with all additional information, is intended to ensure protection of privacy appropriate to the individual visitor or user of ISOSTAR Web sites. 

1. Commitment to the security of privacy.

Commitment to the security of privacy. In the context of using this information, we undertake to fully respect international standards for the protection of privacy. In so doing, we guarantee the strict respect of security and confidentiality standards by our employees. The following paragraphs lay down the methods we use to collect your personal data. 

2. Use of personal data.

Most of our services don't require any form of registration, allowing you to visit our site without giving us your identity. However certain services may require registration. When you register yourself on our site you may be asked to complete certain fields (some are compulsory and others optional), and to provide a user name and password. In this case, if you choose not to provide certain personal information it is possible that you won't be able to access some pages of the site and that we won't be able to answer your question. ISOSTAR uses personal information for specific and restricted purposes, which we will tell you about when we ask you for the information. For example, we may collect and use personal information to offer you, supply you or invoice you products or services likely to interest you personally or to contact you on other subjects. The information that we send to our customer service department is only used to help you solve your problem and is treated confidentially. ISOSTAR keeps your data as long as necessary in accordance with legal and ethical requirements regarding data storage for purposes of reporting or documentation. 

3. Non-disclosure of information.

ISOSTAR undertakes not to sell, share or disclose your personal information to third parties outside the Group to which it belongs. However, these data may occasionally be sent to third parties acting on behalf or in the name of ISOSTAR or in connection with ISOSTAR business as part of the use for which the information was originally collected. When disclosure of personal information to a third party is likely or necessary for whatever reason, ISOSTAR undertakes to ensure as far as possible that the planned conditions under which it is disclosed and used are clearly indicated. These third parties may take different measures to protect privacy to our own. However, we undertake to assure you that these third parties have the same level of protection as ISOSTAR and as necessary we require them contractually to handle the data sent only for the purposes expressly authorised by ISOSTAR. We will not share sensitive data about you with third parties (such as medical information) without your prior explicit consent. Your consent may be withdrawn at any time. If you withdraw your consent, ISOSTAR may not be able to satisfy some of your requests. Every time it is possible to do so, ISOSTAR will notify the third parties to whom your data have been sent that you have withdrawn your consent. 

4. Right of access.

You have the right to access and update your personal information as well as the right to request their deletion, in accordance with Law no. 78-17 dated 6 January 1978 relating to data processing, files and freedom (data protection legislation). We undertake to ensure that your personal information are up to date, correct and complete. If you wish to access your personal information or correct it, please send an e-mail to our data protection manager. Your request will be dealt with as soon as possible. Requests to delete personal information will be subject to the requirements placed on ISOSTAR in a legal and ethical context, regarding reporting, archiving and document storage. 

5. Security and Confidentiality.

In order to ensure the security and confidentiality of personal information that it receives ""on-line"", ISOSTAR uses protected data networks, amongst other things a standards-compliant anti-intrusion system and a password. Access to personal information is limited to employees that need to sue this information and who have received the necessary training to ""manage"" it correctly and strictly observe confidentiality standards. If an employee commits a breach of our privacy protection charter, (s)he will be punished accordingly. We regularly audit and confirm that our staff respect our charter and procedures. Although we cannot guarantee that we will not lose, abuse or alter the data, we do everything we can to avoid such situations arising. 

6. Overseas transfer of data.

ISOSTAR is a global brand and has data banks in different countries. ISOSTAR may send your data to its data banks in a different country to where you live. If the level of privacy protection in a country does not meet recognised international standards, we will ensure that transmissions of data to data banks in such as country are adequately protected and that the data will not be sent to a third party unless you have previously given your explicit consent. 

7. Anonymous data and "Cookies".

Most of the information that ISOSTAR collects on its sites is anonymous, such as the pages you visit and the searches you make. When you visit our web site, we won't collect any personal information from you unless you have authorised us to do it. ISOSTAR uses this anonymous information in order to improve the content of its sites and obtain overall statistics about their users for internal and marketing purposes. In this way, ISOSTAR may install ""Cookies"" that collect the preferences of each user, as well as the date and time of access in order to personalise the ISOSTAR site based on the choices of each user. ""Cookies"" cannot be used by themselves to obtain the identity of the user. A ""Cookie"" is information that is sent to your browser and stored on the hard disk of your computer. ""Cookies"" do not damage your computer. You can activate your browser to tell you about the receipt of a ""Cookie"", which will enable you to decide whether or not you want to accept it. 

8. Distribution to uninterested parties.

ISOSTAR does not accept distribution to uninterested parties. Such distribution is sending of unsolicited e-mails, generally of a commercial nature, in large numbers and repeatedly, to people with whom the sender had no previous relationship or who refused to receive such messages. On the other hand, when ISOSTAR believes that certain products, questions related to health or other information are important to you, it reserves the right to inform you by e-mail, at the same time giving you the choice to be excluded from this service. 

9. Personal information and minors.

ISOSTAR undertakes not to collect, use or knowingly disclose the personal information of minors, without having previously obtained the agreement of a person with parental authority (that is, one of the parents or someone having legal custody of the child) by a direct means excluding the internet. We will supply this person a written note of the specific nature of the personal information collected about the minor and the right to oppose this collection, use or later storage of such information. ISOSTAR subscribes to the United States declaration regarding privacy protection of children on line and complies with similar laws in other countries aimed at protecting children. 

10. Relationships with other sites.

The commitment to respect privacy applies only to ISOSTAR sites and excludes third party sites. ISOSTAR may provide ""connections"" with other sites that it thinks may be of interest to its visitors. We seek to ensure that such sites comply with the most rigorous standards. However, because of the very nature of the world-wide network, ISOSTAR cannot guarantee the level of standards for each connection that it supplies, nor be responsible for the content of third party sites.
