PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

In order to offer you quality products and services, we must obtain and have access to some of your personal information (Any information which relates to a natural person and allows that person to be identified). Safeguarding your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information is important to us. For this reason, SecuriGlobe has implemented security and monitoring measures to protect your personal information and privacy, in compliance with the applicable laws (SecuriGlobe and its partners, agents, service providers and duly authorized representatives as well as any future purchaser of SecuriGlobe or its subsidiaries). This document, as well as our security and monitoring measures, are based on the principles set out below.
