Privacy Policy
Introduction
We respect your online privacy and identify your need for protection and management of any personal information you share with us.
In order for you to be able to understand the care with which we intend to treat your personal information (information used to identify an individual) we have established an Online Privacy Policy. You are able to visit our website without disclosing any information about yourself. However, if you do wish to disclose personal information we may transfer this within BroadShield or to BroadShield’s third-party service providers, across borders, and from your home country or jurisdiction to other countries or around the world.
We strive to comply with applicable laws worldwide, which are designed to safeguard your privacy. Although laws may differ from each country we intend to adhere to the principles set in the Online Privacy Policy. Our goal is to provide protection for your personal information regardless of where the information is collected, transferred or retained.
