Our

In general, you can browse the Site without telling
us who you are or revealing any personal information
about yourself. Once you give us your personal

Under some circumstances we may require some additional
financial information. We use your financial information,

accuracy of your name, address, and other information,
as well as to bill you for your use of our services.
We automatically track certain information based

remittance.
If you send us personal correspondence, such as

parties send us correspondence about your activities
or postings on the Site, we may collect such information
into a file specific to you.
2.Our Use of Your Information.

on the Site to: resolve disputes; troubleshoot
problems; help promote safe buying; collect fees
owed; measure consumer interest in our products
and services, inform you about online and offline
offers, products, services, and updates; customize
your experience; detect and protect us against
error, fraud and other criminal activity; enforce
our Terms of Use; and as otherwise described to
you at the time of collection. At times, we may
look across multiple users to identify problems
or resolve disputes, and in particular we may
examine your personal information to identify
users using multiple User IDs or aliases. We may
compare and review your personal information for
errors, omissions and for accuracy.
If you choose to list an item for sale on the

3.Our Disclosure of
Your Information.
As
a matter of policy, we do not sell or rent any
of your personal information to third parties
for their marketing purposes without your explicit
consent. However, the following describes some
of the ways that your personal information may
be disclosed in the normal scope of business to
provide our services.
Advertisers. We aggregate (gather up data across
all user accounts) personal information and disclose
such information in a non-personally identifiable
manner to advertisers and other third parties
for their marketing and promotional purposes.
However, in these situations, we do not disclose
to these entities any information that could be
used to identify you personally. Certain information,
such as your name, email address, password, credit
card number, and bank account number, are not
disclosed to these third parties in a personally
identifiable manner without your explicit consent.
Cimplant Board. Your User ID is displayed throughout
the Site and is therefore available to the public.
All of your activities on the Site will be identifiable
to your User ID. Other people can see your feedback
and associated comments, your postings on the
Site, and so on. Therefore, if you associate your
name with your User ID, the people you have revealed
your name to will be able to personally identify
your Cimplant activities. Further, we may send
out notices to you or other community members
regarding suspicious activity or policy violations
on the Site.
4.Control of Your Password.
You
are responsible for all actions taken with your
User ID and password, including fees charged to
your account. Therefore we do not recommend that
you disclose your Cimplant password to any third
parties. If you choose to share your User ID and
password or your personal information with third
parties, you are responsible for all actions taken
with your account and therefore you should review
that third party's privacy policy. If you lose
control of your password, you may lose substantial
control over your personal information and may
be subject to legally binding actions taken on
your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been
compromised for any reason, you should immediately
change your password.
5.Accessing, Reviewing
and Changing Your Personal Information.
We
offer you the ability to automatically review
and change the information you submit to us by
logging into the Site and entering in the new
information yourself. Generally, we will not modify
your personal information based on your request
because it is very difficult to authenticate your
account manually. You can change your user Id,
email address, contact information, financial
information, posting information and user preferences
by going the preferences and setup section in
MyPage. You must promptly update your personal
information if it changes or is inaccurate. Once
posted, you may not be able to change or remove
any public postings made on the Site.
Upon your request, we will deactivate your account,
contact information, billing information, posting
information, and financial information from our
active databases. To make this request, email
swc.cimplant.com. Such information will be deactivated
as soon as reasonably possible based on your account
activity and in accordance with our deactivation
policy and applicable law.
We will retain in our files some personal information
you have requested to remove to prevent fraud,
collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot
problems, assist with any investigations, enforce
our Terms of use and comply with legal requirements
as is permitted by law. Therefore, you should
not expect that all of your personal information
will be completely removed from our databases
in response to your requests. However, such personal
information will be deactivated from public and
member viewing and will only be available to select
Cimplant personal.
6.Security
Your
information is stored on Cimplant co.'s computer
located in Korea. We use procedural and technical
safeguards to protect your personal information
against loss or theft as well as unauthorized
access and disclosure to protect your privacy,
including encryption, "firewalls" and
Secure Socket Layers. We treat data as an asset
that must be protected against loss and unauthorized
access. We employ many different security techniques
to protect such data from unauthorized access
by users inside and outside the company. However,
"perfect security" does not exist on
the Internet.
