Your privacy on the
Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At Neff Hearing, we want to make your
experience online satisfying and safe. Because we gather certain types of
information about our users, we feel you should fully understand our policy and the
terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. The
information you provide is safeguarded. This Privacy Policy discloses what
information we gather and how we use it. It applies to information we collect on
this Website, including through electronic messages between you and the Website (for
example, when you submit a message using our “Customer Service/Feedback”
form or when you complete the “Request an Appointment” form). It does
not apply to information collected by us offline or through other means, or to
information collected by third parties, including through any application or content
that may link to or be accessible from this Website. By accessing or using this
Website, you agree to this Privacy Policy. Please review it carefully.
Information
Neff Hearing
gathers and tracks
We gather two types
of information about users:
-
Information that users provide through optional, voluntary
submissions. This information may include personal information, such
as your name, phone number, email address, state and zip code. We
collect this information to respond to requests from users,
customize our features for individual visitors who are Neff
Hearing customers and to notify customers about updates
to our site and products or services.
-
Information that we collect automatically as you navigate the
Website. This information may include usage details, IP addresses
and information collected through tracking technologies such as
cookies and web beacons. Information Neff
Hearing gathers through aggregated
tracking is used to determine which areas of our sites users like
and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what
individual users read, but rather how well each page performs
overall. We collect this information in order to determine how to
create the best experience for our customers. We may track search
terms entered in our Search function as one of many measures of what
interests our users, but this tracking is never associated with an
individual user.
Policy
amendment
Neff
Hearing approaches Internet communications with a strong
commitment to individual privacy rights and concerns. As the Internet evolves, our
policy will continue to change and develop. We therefore reserve the right to amend
this Privacy Policy at any time with or without prior notice. Please check this page
periodically for changes. Your continued use of the sites following any changes to
this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such changes.
Use of
personal information
Neff
Hearing strictly protects the security of your personal
information and honors your choices for its intended use. We disclose your
information to no third parties unless it is specifically stated otherwise. We may
use third party contractors to help us operate our business and the sites or
administer activities on our behalf, and may share your personal information with
these contractors for those limited purposes. We use your information solely to
fulfill services, transact a purchase, and help us improve our Website and product
offerings to you. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, Neff Hearing reserves
the right to cooperate with local, state and federal officials in any investigation
relating to any purported illegal activity(ies) and, when required by law,
regulation, legal process or government requests, to disclose any personal
information furnished by you or collected by Neff Hearing to law
enforcement authorities or other relevant or related third parties.
Some of the features
on this Website allow you to communicate with us using an online form. If your
communication requests a response from us, we may send you a response via e-mail.
The e-mail response or confirmation may include your personal information, including
your name, address, etc. We cannot guarantee that our e-mails to you will be secure
from unauthorized interception.
Accessing
and correcting your information
You may contact us if you wish to
view, edit, or delete your personal information from our database, and we will use
commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate your request. You may also contact us
if you believe that any inaccurate or inappropriate information has been obtained or
provided to others through your use of this Website.

California privacy rights

Code § 1798.83 permits our visitors who are California residents to request
certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to

requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser “Do Not Track”
signals. Our Website does not currently support “Do Not Track” codes.
That is, Neff
Hearing does not currently respond to or take any action with regard to
“Do Not Track” requests.
