Your
privacy is important to Nokia. We are committed to
protecting your personal data. As
used in this Privacy Policy (this "Policy"), the term "personal
data" means data such as: your name; mailing address; e-mail
address; internet service provider; telephone number; or, other personal
information that may be supplied by you or collected about you according
to applicable local legislation. We
hope that this Policy helps you understand what kinds of personal data
we collect from this site and how we handle and use any personal data
after collection.
Applicability
By
accessing and using this site, your use indicates your agreement to the
terms of this Policy. If you do not agree with this Policy, please do
not use this site.
This
Policy is applicable to this Site and certain other general public
informational web/mobile sites of Nokia, but not
necessarily all such web/mobile sites, or web channels for which special
terms and conditions may apply, as indicated. All Nokia sites
to which this Policy is applicable are collectively referred to as this
"site". Note that special use terms or
site specific terms may apply to certain pages and services on this
site, but the applicability of any such additional terms will be
expressly indicated. In the
event of any inconsistency between any special use terms or
site-specific terms and this Policy, the applicable special use or
site-specific terms will prevail over the terms of this Policy.
Personal
Data Provided by You
To respond to
your questions, fulfill your requests or manage interactive customer
programs, it may be necessary to ask for or obtain personal data about
you. If you provide us with
requested information, we may use it as applicable to respond to your
requests, determine your satisfaction with Nokia
products and/or services and to contact you via mail, e-mail, mobile
message or phone or, in accordance with local law, use such means to
inform you of new products, services or promotions we may offer. By providing
Nokia information through this site, you acknowledge and
consent to the collection, use and disclosure of personally identifying
information of the type and for the limited purposes described in this
Policy.
You expressly
accept and give your consent that your personal data obtained in
connection with your use of this site may be transferred, if permitted
by applicable local legislation, across international borders to server
locations supporting this site (including but not limited to transfers
from those locations back to the country of your location) for operating
and developing this site and Nokia services, including
transfers to Nokia subcontractors or agents, as
mentioned below, who perform tasks related to this site or Nokia
services, or for the purposes of storing the data in relevant
databases, which may be located in Finland or in some other country
where Nokia has operations.
If
you place an order for a product, request a service or submit content to
this site, we may need to contact you for additional information
required to process or fulfill your order and/or request. Unless
compelled by applicable law or administrative or judicial order, we will
not provide this information to a third party without your permission,
except as necessary to process your order, fulfill your requests or
manage interactive customer programs. If allowed by applicable local
legislation, Nokia may also exchange information
between Nokia' affiliated (related) companies for the
purposes mentioned in this Policy.
Because
Nokia is committed to protecting your privacy, Nokia
does not engage in the practice of selling or trading
personal data to other companies for promotional purposes.
Usage
of Subcontractors
We
may use subcontractors to provide some products or services to you. We also may need to share your
personal data with these subcontractors so that they can provide
services to us. Our
subcontractors are not allowed to use such personal data for any other
purposes and we impose confidentiality requirements on their services.
Visitor
Identification – Usage of "Cookies"
From
time to time, information may be placed on your computer to improve this
site and Nokia' services for you. This information is
commonly known as "cookies"
and many web sites use them. Cookies are pieces of data stored on your
computer's hard drive or browser, and not on this site. They typically
enable collection of certain information about your computer, including
your internet protocol address, your computer's operating system, your
browser type and the address of any referring sites.
The
use of cookies provides benefits to you, such as eliminating the need
for you to enter your password frequently during a session, or where
applicable re-enter items you place in a shopping cart from visit to
visit if you do not finish a transaction on an earlier visit. By showing how and when our
visitors use this site or other Nokia sites, the use of
cookies allows Nokia to continue to improve them. If you do not wish to receive
cookies, or want to be notified of when they are placed, you may set
your web browser to do so, if your browser so permits. Please understand that if
cookies are turned off, you may not be able to view certain parts of
this site that may enhance your visit. Some of our business partners whose content is linked to or from
this site may also use cookies. However,
we have no access to or control over these cookies.
Security
Nokia
has endeavored to take commercially reasonable measures
to prevent unauthorized access to and improper use of your personal data
submitted to Nokia via your use of this site. For
example, Nokia uses encryption technology when
collecting financial personal data such as credit card information. If
this site supports on-line transactions, it will use an industry
standard security measure, such as the one available through
"Secure Sockets Layer" ("SSL"),
to protect the confidentiality and security of online transactions. If
used, industry standard security measures like SSL authentication ensure
that credit card information, as well as other personal data, submitted
as part of the buying process is reasonably safe from third party
interception.
While
there are always risks associated with providing personal data, whether
in person, by phone or via the internet or other technologies, and no
system of technology is completely safe or
"tamper"/"hacker" proof, Nokia has
endeavored to take reasonable precautions which are appropriate to the
nature of the information to prevent and minimize such risks in
connection with your use of this site.
Accuracy
of Collected Data
Nokia
will on its own initiative, or at your request, free of
charge, replenish, rectify or erase any incomplete, inaccurate or
outdated personal data retained by Nokia in connection
with the operation of this site. Please consult the contact information posted below on this page,
if any, or elsewhere on this site to determine how best to contact Nokia
