Users of

Links
This Web site contains links to other sites.
Please be aware that we, sgDomain Networks Pte Ltd, are not
responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.
We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site
and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site
that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy
statement applies solely to information collected by this
Web site.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from
users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys
or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore
has a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
The requested information typically includes contact information
(such as name and shipping address), and demographic information
(such as postal code). Contact information will be shared
with the contest/survey sponsors and used to notify the winners
and award prizes. Anonymous survey information will be used
for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction
of this site. Users’ personally identifiable information is
not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice
and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these
surveys or contests, they may not use users’ personally identifiable
information for any secondary purposes.
Chat Rooms, Message Boards, and Public Forums
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily
disclose personal information online - for example on message
boards, through e-mail, or in chat areas - that information
can be collected and used by others. In short, by posting
personal information online that is publicly accessible, you
may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.
Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect
our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information
via the Web site, their information is protected both online
and off-line.
When our
registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information,
that information is encrypted and is protected with the best
encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure
page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom
of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet
Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open,
when users are just ‘surfing’.
If users
have any questions about the security at our Web site, users
can send an email to support@sgdomain.com.
Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information
changes (such as postal code, phone, email or postal address),
or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a way
to correct, update or delete/deactivate users’ personally
identifiable information. This can be done by emailing our
Customer Support at support@sgdomain.com.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we
will post those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage,
and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always
aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
