3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you access our website, and they can be used to collect information such as your browser type, IP address, and pages visited on our site. EDealer uses cookies to conveniently allow you not to re-enter data/information, such as your contact details, multiple times during your visits to our Web sites. Cookies can also help us provide data/information targeted to your interests, based on your prior browsing on our Websites. Cookies also help us to detect bugs and errors on our Sites.

You can manage your cookie preferences by adjusting the settings in your web browser. Please note that disabling cookies (such as essential or functional cookies) may limit your ability to use certain features of our website. Despite this, you can disable cookies in your browser at any time.

Cookie preferences must be set for each Internet browser. You generally have several ways to manage cookies, including: allowing or disallowing cookies entirely, deleting specific cookies that the browser has already stored, preventing certain websites from sending cookies to your computer, or blocking third-party cookies (when you browse a website, cookies are sent to your computer from another website). If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us using the contact information provided below.

4. Browser-Based Do Not Track

Some browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature that, when turned on, signals to websites and online services that you do not want to be tracked. Because there is not yet an accepted standard for responding to a DNT signal, we do not currently respond to DNT signals on this website or on websites where we provide advertisements, content, or other services.

5. How Do We Store and Secure Your Personal Information?

Your personal information is hosted on the servers of our trusted service provider located in the United States of America. As a result, your personal information may be stored and processed in any province or country where we have offices or in which we engage third party service providers. You consent to transfer information to jurisdictions outside your province or country of residence, which may have data protection rules different from those in your province or country of residence. While such information is outside of your country of residence, it is subject to the laws of the province or country in which it is held and may be subject to disclosure to the governments, courts, law enforcement or regulatory agencies of such other province or country, according to local laws.

We implement physical, administrative and technical safeguards designed to preserve the confidentiality, integrity and security of personal information under our control. However, information transmitted on the Internet and/or stored on systems attached to the Internet is not 100% secure, and no security can provide absolute protection. As a result, we do not ensure, warrant or guarantee the security or integrity of such information.

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the relevant purposes specified in this Policy and comply with our legal obligations. If you would like more information about the length of time we retain your personal information, please contact our Privacy Officer using the contact details below. This Policy does not apply to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their privacy policies, procedures or practices.
