Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through NZVIA public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: NZVIA does not read any of your private online communications.

NZVIA encourages you to review the privacy statements of web sites you choose to link to from NZVIA so that you can understand how those web sites collect, use and share your information. NZVIA is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on web sites outside of the NZVIA and NZVIA family of web sites.

NZVIA collects and uses your personal information to operate the NZVIA web site and deliver the services you have requested.

NZVIA does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. NZVIA may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, NZVIA may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries.

NZVIA keeps track of the web sites and pages our customers visit within NZVIA, in order to determine what NZVIA services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within NZVIA to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

NZVIA web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on NZVIA or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of NZVIA; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of NZVIA, or the public.

The NZVIA web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize NZVIA pages, or register with NZVIA site or services, a cookie helps NZVIA to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same NZVIA web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the NZVIA features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the NZVIA services or web sites you visit.

NZVIA secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. NZVIA secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the secure socket layer (ssl) protocol.

NZVIA will occasionally update this statement of privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. NZVIA encourages you to periodically review this statement to be informed of how NZVIA is protecting your information.

NZVIA welcomes your comments regarding this statement of privacy. If you believe that the NZVIA has not adhered to this statement, please contact NZVIA at NZVIA. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly determine and remedy the problem.
