This helps us to ensure that you can safely use our websites;

What we use your Personal Information for

Product Registration.You can register your Casio product on our website if you would like to receive product information as well as updates on our new products and services. When you register on the website, we provide you with the opportunity to "opt out" of receiving any information, product, service or other informational emails from Casio. If you choose to “opt out”, we will only answer the email we receive from you and provide necessary status information regarding your orders or your product registration. Your contact details are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties unless necessary to fulfil your order.

Orders. We use the information you provide about yourself when placing an order only to complete that order. Other than as expressly stated herein, we do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order. We use the information you provide about someone else when placing an order only to ship the product and to confirm delivery. We may also use such information to support with any product returns or customer services issues you may have.

Marketing. Depending on the local law requirements in your jurisdiction, you will have the right to opt-out or opt-in to receiving marketing and promotions from us, such as email advertisements and product news. You may also have the right to ask us to stop processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes, including any profiling we undertake for the purposes of direct marketing. You can unsubscribe from our marketing communications at any time by following the instructions included in these marketing communications.

We also use this demographic information in designing and evaluating new products that Casio manufactures.

Automatic collection of information. We may track the Internet domains from which people contact us, and from time-to-time may gather information concerning the “referring” domain that a person visited prior to our site, and the “destination” domain a person visits after leaving our site. Information automatically collected is used to identify and analyze the trends and statistics of visits to our website and to make our website more responsive to the needs and interests of our customers. “Do Not Track” is a privacy setting that you may set in your web browser. If turned on, this setting requests that websites not track information about users. At this time, we do not respond to “Do Not Track” browser settings or signals.
