Your privacy is a high priority at Avata, and we go to
great lengths to protect it everyday.

Avata's Customer Privacy Policy covers the collection, use, and disclosure of information that may be collected by Avata anytime you interact with Avata, such as when you visit this website, purchase Avata products and/or services, or when you call our associates. Please take a moment to read the following to learn more about our information collection and use practices, including what type of information is gathered, how the information is used, for what purposes, to whom we disclose the information, and how we safeguard your the personal information.

Information Collected by Avata

Why we collect personal information. We collect your personal information because it helps us deliver a superior level of customer service and technical support. It helps us to give you the most convenient access to our personal computing products and cloud services of interest to you. Additionally, your personal information helps us keep you posted on the latest product information, updates, offers, and special events that you might like to hear about.

The information we collect and how we may put it to use. When you interact with Avata, we may collect information relevant to your support or service issue such as name, address, payment, and information about the Avata products in question. In order to get a more clear understanding of our customers so that we may provide a higher quality of service, we may also collect voluntary information for research purposes, such as your occupation and where you use your computer.

We also collect information regarding your activities on our websites. This helps us determine how best to provide more useful and relevent information about our products and services. We may also use your personal information such as name, address, etc., for research and analysis to improve Avata products and services over time.

The Magento software the Avata uses to power our commerce websites allows you to create an account with your personal information, which is accessable with a valid email address and password. Your information is saved on our servers and is linked to the email address you provided, because it's unique and easy to remember. In addition, if you update the information you provided this online account, it may be available for all your transactions with Avata.

Any information you post to any Avata-sponsored public forum or chat room is visible to other users. Personally identifiable information you submit to one of these forums can be read, collected, or used by other individuals. AVATA IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION YOU SUBMIT TO BE POSTED ON THESE FORUMS OR CHAT ROOMS. For example, if you choose to make information, which was previously non-public, available by enabling certain user features, Avata websites will automatically collect that information from your communication and the information will then become publicly available.

When we disclose the information

Avata takes your privacy very seriously and will not sell or rent your contact information to non-Avata entities.

To provide superior service, your personal information may be shared with legal entities, within Avata, who will take appropriate steps to safeguard the information in accordance with this privacy policy.

Avata makes certain personal information about you available to companies that Avata has a strategic relationship with, or that perform work for Avata in order to facilitate a transaction, or to provide products and services to you on our behalf. These organizations may help us process information, extend credit to you, fulfill orders, deliver orders, and provide customer service. These companies are also obligated to protect your personal information in accordance with Avata's policies, unless we inform you otherwise at the time of collection.

For example, when you purchase an Avata laptop or desktop computer, you authorize Avata and its supplier to exchange the information that you provide during the purchase process to carry out the order. Without such information being made available, it would be difficult for you to purchase products, have products delivered to you, receive customer service, provide us feedback to improve our products and services, or access certain services, offers, and content on the Avata website.

There may be times when we may be forced by court order to disclose your personal information. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary.

How we protect your personal information

Avata makes every effort to maintain the security of its network and the data we collect. We use state-of-the-art technology, including encryption, to ensure the highest security standards. Any data that is stored on Avata's servers is treated as licensed and confidential and is not available to the public. Avata has a strict internal security policy with respect to the confidentiality of customer and other data, limiting access only to those employees who have a need to know such information for the purpose of effectively delivering Avata products and services. Please keep in mind, however, that the Internet is not a 100% secure medium. Therefore, although we use industry standards to protect information, the possibility of somebody defeating our security measures does exist.
