While maintaining our commitment to your privacy, we collect personally identifiable information including your name, shipping address, billing address, email address, and credit card information during the online checkout process, so we can properly fulfill your orders. We do not store credit card information.

Website Statistics:

Like many site operators, we collect non-personally identifiable information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Site ("Log Data"). This Log Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Site that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics. In addition, we may use third-party services, such as Google Analytics, that collects, monitors, and analyzes this Log Data so that we might better understand how to improve your experience with us.

The next time you return to our Site, simply enter your email address and password and the rest of the information will be pulled from our database, allowing you to use our express shopping feature.

The information will be used for checkout, sending confirmation emails, or newsletters (if you elect). If at any time you wish to stop receiving newsletters, you may opt-out. Japan Vaccum Instruments Ltd. does not sell ANY personally-identifiable customer information to other businesses or third-parties for ANY purpose.

We may disclose your information (including your personally identifiable information) in response to a lawful request by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. We may also disclose your information to our legal counsel, governmental authorities or law enforcement if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to do so in order to comply with a law or regulation; to protect the safety of any person; to address fraud, security or technical issues; or to protect Xytronix’s rights or property.

Cookie Information

"Cookies" are a type of information that is stored on your hard drive via your web browser. The "cookies" that JVI uses do not contain any personal data such as credit card information, passwords, or even your name or address.

Cookies simply help us to identify your session on the site. They also help us maintain specific visit information about you without forcing you to register or to give personal information.

However, you should have the option of disabling "cookies" through your browser. Please realize, if you choose to disable the "cookies" we will not be able to personalize your experience with us at www.jpvacinst.co.uk/www.jpvacinst.com nor can we guarantee a complete login, registration or shopping experience.

We do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do Not Track signals that provide a method to opt out of the collection of information about online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services as there is no consistent industry standard for compliance.

Credit Card Security

Providing a secure site is essential for your peace of mind and trust in JVI. We have installed the latest encryption software conforming to the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard all of the information you send to us.

Password Information

Passwords are used on our site as an added security feature. We want to ensure that the password information matches the person's information that is placing the order. Once you have determined a password, it will be encrypted using the latest SSL protocol and then stored in our database in the encrypted format. To better protect your account, we recommend using a secure password of 8 or more characters with a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

If we change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on this page to keep you aware of our current policy. Changes to our Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted to this page.
