General Notes

Privacy

Oriental Motor takes the protection of your personal information very seriously. We treat your personal information confidentially and in accordance this privacy policy. If you use this website (the “Website”), various personal information will be collected. This privacy policy explains what personal information we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose we collect and process personal information. Please be aware that security vulnerabilities may be present when data is transmitted via the )nternet (e.g. communication by email). Absolute protection of the data against access by third parties cannot be guaranteed.

This policy applies to information we collect:

  • On this Website.
  • From you when you write us an email or send other correspondence to us on or off this Website, as well as when you reach out to us by phone or other means of communication.
  • From you when you attend trade shows or other events that Oriental Motor also participates in.
  • From business partners or other third parties in certain circumstances. 

It does not apply to information collected by:

  • Any other website operated by Company or any third party (including our parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates) that does not link to this policy; or
  • Any third party (including our parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates), including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on the Website.

By accessing or using this Website, you acknowledge this privacy policy. This policy may change from time to time. Your continued use of this Website after we make changes is deemed to be acknowledgment of those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates under “Changes in our privacy policy”.

SSL/TLS Encryption

This Website uses SSL/TLS encryption for reasons of security and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the Website operator. You can identify an encrypted connection when the address line in the web browser has changed from "http://" to "https://" and there is a padlock symbol in your browser line. If SSL/TLS encryption is enabled, the data that you transmit to us cannot also be read by third parties. However, no security system is perfect, and due to the inherent nature of the )nternet, we cannot guarantee that data, including personal information, is absolutely safe from unauthorized access by others.

Encrypted Payment Transactions On This Website

If, after the conclusion of a purchase, we are obliged to transmit your payment details (e.g. account number for a direct debit mandate), this personal information will be required for payment processing. Payment transactions using established means of payment (Visa/MasterCard/American Express/PayPal) are carried out exclusively using an encrypted SSL/TLS connection. In the case of encrypted communication, the payment details that you transmit to us cannot also be read by third parties.

Do Not Track Disclosure (“DNT”)

Some browsers allow you to automatically notify websites you visit to not track your browsing data using a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context and, like many other websites, our Website does not accept “Do Not Track” signals.
