| LG Electronics S.A. (Pty) Ltd (Hereafter referred to as “LGESA”) believes strongly in protecting the privacy of the personally identifiable information you share with us. We also believe it is important to inform you about how we will use your personal data, and to give you choices about how such data will be used. Therefore, we encourage you to read this Privacy Policy carefully. |
| |
| GENERAL |
| By providing any personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, mailing address, telephone number etc., (together "Personal Data"), you fully understand and unconditionally consent to collection, use, and transfer of such Personal Data on the terms and conditions outlined in this privacy notice ("Privacy"). If you do not agree to this Privacy notice, do not provide Personal Data to us on the website. Moreover, we reserve the right to change or modify the Privacy notice at any time and for any reason we deem necessary without notice to you for example changes in applicable legislation. |

| COLLECTION OF PERSONAL DATA AND OTHER USER INFORMATION |
| Our goal at LGESA is to provide all customers with the highest quality products and services. In order to inter alia ensure that you receive quality products and customer services, we may collect certain Personal Data directly from our customers. However, you can visit an LG dealer or our websites without identifying yourself or providing any Personal Data. |
| |
| At certain times, however, we ask you to provide information that will enable us to provide you with important product information, complete a transaction, enhance your site visit or to follow up later. Your participation is completely optional. |
| |
| For example, we may request Personal Data inter alia when you: |
| |
- register a product warranty;
- complete a survey;
- participate in a competition or other promotional offer;
- subscribe to a newsletter or mailing list. |
| |
| “COOKIES” AND WEBSITE LOGGING |
| For each visitor to the website, LGESA web servers automatically recognise and store information which is not normally deemed to be Personal Data, such as the visitor's IP address and domain name. We use user-information to understand visitor traffic patterns through the site for purposes such as enhancing their usability. |
| |
| Your computer provides this user-information automatically each time you log on, unless you've activated blocking technology available in some browsers. When you visit the site we may use so called "cookies" which stores certain user-information on your computer and allow us to customise your experience to better match your interests and preferences, or to simply facilitate your signing in to use the services. Most browsers will allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block acceptance of cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. However, if you block or erase cookies, we may not be able to restore any preferences or customisation settings you previously specified, and our ability to personalise your online experience would be limited. Please refer to your browser instructions to learn more about these functions. |

| TRANSFER OF PERSONAL DATA |
| Your Personal Data may be transferred to LGESA offices operating in countries outside the Republic of South Africa . Those countries may in rare cases not provide an adequate level of protection for Personal Data. Each of those LG Electronics offices will however comply with LG Electronics’ internal policy relating to processing of Personal Data. |
| |
| LGESA will not transfer (other than for routing purpose) the Personal Data you provide on the website to any third party, except (a) with your consent; (b) as may be required by law or court order; (c) to persons or companies with whom LGESA has contracts to carry out the internal operations of the website or our business; or (d) we reasonably believe that they are subject to law, binding scheme or contract which upholds principles for fair handling and adequate level of protection of Personal Data. |
