How do we collect your personal information?
Personal information refers to the information recorded electronically or in other ways that can be used to identify a natural person’s identity when used alone or in combination with other information. Sensitive personal information refers to the personal information that, once leaked, illegally provided or misused, may endanger the personal safety and property, easily cause damage to personal reputation, physical and mental health, or lead to discriminatory treatment. For example, sensitive personal information includes ID number, personal biometric information, bank account, communication content, physiological health information, etc. Such data will be submitted directly to us when you use our website, products or services, as well as interact with us. For example, we may get your information when you create a MIIVII account or contact us for support; or through our records of how you interact with our website, products or services, for instance, via technologies such as cookies; or by receiving usage data from the software running on your device. The data we collect depends on the way you interact with MIIVII, including the websites you visit, the products and services you use, your name, gender, company name, job title, address, email address, phone number, login information (account and password), photos, certificate information, etc. We also collect the information you provide us with and the content of the messages you send us, such as the query information you enter or the questions or information you provide to obtain customer service support.
We only collect the information that is necessary for the realization of our product functions based on the principles of lawfulness, legitimacy and necessity. You may need to offer specific sensitive personal information to achieve specific functions when using some MIIVII products or services. If you choose not to provide such information, you may not be able to use certain functions normally, but this will not affect your use of other functions. If you voluntarily provide your sensitive personal information, you agree with us that we can process your sensitive personal information in line with the purposes and methods described in this policy.

In this way, MIIVII can improve its services and better meet the needs of its customers. MIIVII may, at its discretion, collect, use, process, transfer or disclose the unidentified data for other purposes. We will do our best to isolate your personal information from the anonymous data, and apply them separately. If your personal information is mixed with the anonymous data, it will still be treated as your personal information.

How do we use Cookie and related technologies?
To ensure the proper functioning of our website, we sometimes store small data files called cookies on the computers or mobile devices. A cookie is a plain text file stored on a computer or mobile device by a web server. The content of the cookie can only be retrieved or read by the server that created it. Each cookie is unique to your web browser or mobile application. Cookies usually contain identifiers, site names, some numbers and characters. With the help of Cookie, the website can store data like users’ preferences or the items in their shopping baskets.
The purpose of enabling Cookie by MIIVII is the same as that of using it by most websites or internet service providers, which is to improve the users’ experience. With the help of Cookie, the website can remember the users’ single visit (using a session cookie) or multiple visits (using permanent cookies). With the help of Cookie, the website can save settings such as the language, font size, and other browsing preferences of computers or mobile devices. This indicates that users do not need to reset their preferences every time they visit. If a website does not use Cookie, the website will treat the user as a new visitor every time he/she opens the page. For example, if you log in to a website and then turn to another page, the website can not recognize you, and you will be logged out again. MIIVII will not use Cookie for any purposes other than those described in this policy. You can manage or delete cookies according to your preferences. You can clear all cookies saved on your computer. Most web browsers possess a function to block cookies. However, if you do this, you will need to change your user settings by yourself each time you visit our website.
In addition to Cookie, we also use other similar technologies such as web beacon and pixel tag on our websites. For example, the email sent to you by MIIVII may contain a click URL that links to the content of MIIVII’s website. If you click on that link, MIIVII will track the click, which helps us better understand your product and service preferences as well as improve our customer service. Web beacon is usually a transparent image that is placed on a website or in an email. With the help of the pixel tag in the email, we can know whether the email is opened. If you do not want your activities to be tracked in this way, you can unsubscribe it from MIIVII’s mailing list at any time.
Your use of our website means that you agree to the use of cookies, web beacons and pixel tags as mentioned above.
How do we disclose your personal information?
