We use technology to help us deliver customised visitor
experiences. At Viglen, we primarily use "IP Addresses and cookies" to help us
determine which service and support information is appropriate to your machine
and to maintain your shopping experience in our online store. Our use of this
technology does not mean that we automatically know any information about you.

that, our use of cookies is designed only to provide you with a better

Children's Privacy (age 12 and under)
Viglen takes children's privacy seriously. Viglen does not
seek to collect personal information about children through its Website. Viglen
does not condition a child's participation in an activity on the disclosure of
more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the
activity.
If we become aware that a person submitting personal
information to us through any part of our Website is a child, we delete the
information as soon as we discover it and do not use it for any purpose, nor do
we disclose it to third parties.
Since we do not seek to collect any
personal information about children and we delete any information collected
inadvertently as soon as we discover that a child has submitted it, we typically
retain no information about children that could be reviewed or deleted. If a
parent requests review or deletion of information about their child before we
have discovered and deleted the information, then we will of course honour that
request.

operated by Viglen. Viglen is not responsible for the privacy practices of the
Websites that it does not operate. Some parts of the Website are animated using
various downloadable applications, such as Macromedia's Shockwave/Flash.
