Privacy / Data Protection Notice

Yomi Multiservices Company respects your privacy and seeks to protect your personal data. The following information describes how we gather and use data. The amount of information this company holds on you and how it uses it depends on your relationship with us and on what service you use, so some of the sections below may not be relevant to you.

Your Personal Information
We collect your information to process your order, administer, support, improve and obtain feedback on our services and to detect and prevent faults, breaches of our network security, the law or our contract terms. We will also use all this information to assess what Yomi Multiservices products and services may be of interest to individuals and to personalize our service and marketing.  If you are registered to use a service as affiliate or seller, we may contact you to obtain feedback on that service and any improvements we could make to it.

Additional Information/Marketing
If you have agreed to such contact, the company may contact you about those of its other services to which you do not subscribe but which may interest you. We may for example invite you to join a free trial of a service. Sometimes we may invite you to advertise your goods or products for sale or similar items on our website. Such contact may be by post, fax, email, and instant message and (in certain limited circumstances) by telephone from time to time. You have a right to ask us at any time not to contact you by way of direct marketing. You can do this by contacting esupport@yomimultiservices.com with the words "No marketing" in the subject line. Then you will no longer receive invitations for events or free trials. If you are a user of the company online subscription services, such as products advertising you may also use Account Preferences to change your marketing preference at any time.

Calls to Help Desks
Calls to Yomi Multiservices Company telephone help desks may be recorded for quality control, regulatory and monitoring purposes.

Personal Information YM collects
The YM collects and updates information about users of its services, suppliers, account and IT managers and other individuals it deals with in its day-to-day business. It may obtain this information via direct contact with you, from third parties such as your employer or another one of our suppliers and automatically via your use of our services. The objective of the safeguarding personal information principle is to assure you that we actively protect your privacy using a variety of security and controls. We use secure technology, privacy protection controls and restrictions on employee access in order to safeguard your personal information.

We use state of the art technology (i.e., Secure Socket Layer, or SSL) encryption to keep customer personal information as secure as possible. We have also put in place privacy protection control systems designed to ensure that personal Customer data remains safe and private.
To learn more about SSL data encryption and how it helps to secure you personal information.

Information you/others give us:
This information includes your contact details, registration and payment details, support problems, details around participation in events, prize draws or surveys and certain relevant details of your interests and preferences. Information may also be obtained on you as a result of authentication or identity checks, including as required by anti money laundering laws.

Information we collect via our services:
If you are a registered user of our services YM also gathers information about your use of our services, such as generic types of data accessed, times and volume of use of the services and Traffic Data. Traffic Data includes logs, details of networks, data and systems accessed, details of the sender and recipients of messages sent over our services, times and location of log on or access, duration of sessions, click stream and similar usage or system data. Traffic Data may sometimes be traceable to/related to not just companies but named individuals. Before you register with YM, however, you can browse affiliate web sites anonymously.
The objective of the online purchases principle is to protect the information about customer transactions and other online uses from misuse and unauthorized disclosure.
We may use information about the kinds of products you buy from us to make other marketing offers to you, unless you tell us not to, or to personalize your visits to our Web site. We do not give out this purchase data to others except as specified below:
We do not give out information about what individual customers purchase, except to complete the transactions or to comply with valid legal process. However, pursuant to specific contracts, we may be required provide third-parties with listings of specific groups of customers who have made purchases. Generally, this data will be aggregated and not individually identifiable, but this may not be true in all cases.
When we facilitate a transaction which is to be fulfilled by an outside party, we will not use the specific, individually identifiable transaction information collected from a customer for purposes other than fulfilling the transaction.

Storage methods and duration
YM may store your information in its databases, such as its Customer Relationship database, for reference. The information may be retained and used by the company for a reasonable period, reflecting our need to answer queries or resolve problems, provide improved and new services and any data retention requirements of the law. This means we may retain information after an individual ceases to use the company services or after the individual has ceased interacting with us. Except where the law, authorities or regulatory bodies require us to retain it for longer, we retain Traffic Data for a reasonable period after the Traffic Data was generated, including in some circumstances (such as with firewall logs or fault data) after any bill has been paid. The details of money laundering checks, user authentication or verification checks and details of trading or other regulated activity may be retained for so long as the law or the regulator requires or evidence of the trade is required.

Passing your information to others in your own organization
If your employer subscribed for the service on your behalf then we may pass certain information to your employer about your use of the service where your employer has a legitimate reason to receive it. Similarly if you are the point contact person in your organisation for a service, we may pass your contact details to those in your organization for this purpose.

Passing your information to third parties
Except where the law permits or unless you specifically agree, YM does not sell or rent your personal data to others outside the company.
In some instances, we may pass information to third parties involved in the relevant YM service (such as to stock exchanges or third party information and software providers) who wish to manage and check the distribution of their information/software and obtain payment for it. They may then match it with the data they have for this purpose. You will generally know if such a transfer of your personal data happens, except if the third parties are simply working on our behalf as our subcontractors, administrators (such as companies that process credit card payments) or our professional advisers or if the data is required to be disclosed by law or to a regulator - then we might not inform you.
If we sell a business division to another company and your personal data is used by that business then your data may be transferred to the buyer along with the business for them to use in the same way.

Cookies/Software agents
A "cookie" is a piece of software, which may be sent to your computer. Cookies enable us to collect information about how our web sites and services are being used and to manage them more efficiently. Until you have registered on YM web site, the cookie will only track general usage patterns and technical information about your computer type and will not be used to identify you individually. After registration, cookies will be used to collect information on you as described in "Personal Information YM collects". You can turn off the ability to receive cookies by adjusting the browser in your computer but you should note that if you do so, this may materially distort the quality of service and data you receive. You therefore do this at your own risk. YM also uses agents with your computer to assist with our diagnosis of technical problems and therefore to obtain information about software versions installed and data transmitted, for software compliance purposes and for you/your company to receive software updates, new releases or additional software. Sometimes you can refuse or remove these agents but that means you will not receive this additional software and may suffer service problems and you may lose all rights to support. We therefore do not recommend that you remove or tamper with these agents.

Newsletters and YM Magazine
With some services you are given the opportunity to receive a related newsletter by email or post. You can at any time choose to stop receiving a service's newsletter or the YM Magazine by following the instructions with the newsletter or Magazine.

Advertising on our web site
Where advertising is served on to our web sites there may be cookies used to collect technical information and generic usage information but third party advertisers will not be able to relate this to you as an individual without your consent.

Restricted Data Sets
If you contract for a service in your own name (and not that of your company) and that service involves the supply of trade, pricing or other financial data, your name may be included in the directory of subscribers in order that the data providers can select or restrict who can view their data.

Credit checks
YM may in some instances for some fee-paying products carry out credit checks with credit reference agencies, or we may follow up references. This will affect you if you are contracting for the service in your own name. Then the fact that YM has carried out such a credit check, and in some instances the nature or results of the credit check, will appear on the agency's register against your name. In many countries you can obtain a copy of your register entry by writing to the relevant credit reference agency, sometimes on payment of a fee.

Digital Signatures/Certificates
If the product you are using has digital certificates/certificate signatures then your name and related details may be displayed as part of any certificate issued to you. It will be seen by those whom your certificate or signature is presented or who rely on it. Your details may also need to be entered into a related status directory of certificates issued.

Interception of mail
YM may intercept some mail and email addressed to individuals in YM. The reasons it may do this are related to security of the company, its staff and others, for detection and prevention of crime and to identify correct recipients or to make sure mail is dealt with during staff absence. In the case of emails, we may reject, delay or remove content from emails which have a nature, content or attachments which may disrupt our systems or because they may pose security issues such as viruses. We may also filter out emails, which contain certain content on the basis that content is offensive or the email is unwanted or Spam. In certain circumstances this may unfortunately result in "innocent" emails being affected but we do try and reduce such occurrences.

International Transfer of your information
Because this company services are international, personal data may be made available internationally, including in countries which do not have data protection laws, or laws which provide as much protection as in the country of origin. We seek to require those to whom we transfer your data to protect it and your privacy. This way YM works to protect personal data transferred to countries which do not have data protection laws or whose laws are less strict.

Security and staff awareness
YM has developed strict policies governing information technology. These cover areas such as access control, authentication, audit, monitoring, alarms, data storage and back up and transmission standards and environment integrity. YM is subject to a code of conduct, which requires us to adhere to privacy principles.

Yomi Multiservices Company
This is a reseller company for the sales of computer products, electronics, Solar products and used vehicles. YM has a direct or indirect ownership interest of 50% or more with any companies which do not have the word "Yomi Multiservices" in their corporate name and which use our website to sell their products. In some circumstances these companies may have their own privacy policies for data they collect themselves. Users will then be presented with their policies/notices on registration for those subsidiary services.
If you have registered as affiliate, you will be provided with an entry in a searchable directory that allows other users of that service to view your name, email address, Messaging address, products for sale and country. If you choose to be ex-directory then others, including your market counterparties, will not be able to search for you in the directory.
It is possible that those in or outside the YM service will obtain or contact you via your Messaging address even if you are ex directory, if you have for example given them your Messaging address (e.g. on your business card) or they have guessed it. Given this and the purpose of the service you agree to the receipt of messages and to contact which you have not expressly requested.

SPECIAL TERMS
Note that there is "NO REFUND, NO EXCHANGE OF GOODS" for credit card sales except on goods that specifically have "WARRANTY", which is limited to the period/term written under the goods purchased.
