The United States Department of Commerce and the European Commission have agreed on a set of data protection principles and frequently asked questions (the "Safe Harbor Principles") to enable U.S. companies to satisfy the requirement under European Union law that adequate protection be given to personal information transferred from the EU to the United States. The EEA also has recognized the U.S. Safe Harbor as providing adequate data protection (OJ L 45, 15.2.2001, p.47). Consistent with its commitment to protect personal privacy, Bigpoint Inc. adheres to the Safe Harbor Principles.
For purposes of this Policy, the following definitions shall apply:
"Personal information" means any information or set of information that identifies or is used by or on behalf of a Company to identify an individual. Personal information does not include information that is encoded or anonymyzed, or publicly available information that has not been combined with non-public personal information.
"Sensitive personal information" means personal information that reveals race, ethnic
origin, sexual orientation, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union
membership, or that concerns an individual's health. In addition, Bigpoint Inc. will treat as sensitive personal information any information received from a third party where that third party treats and identifies the information as sensitive.
The privacy principles in this Policy are based on the Safe Harbor Principles.
NOTICE: Where Bigpoint Inc. collects personal information directly from individuals in the EU, it will inform them about the type of personal information collected, the purposes for which it collects and uses the personal information, and the types of non-agent third parties to which Bigpoint Inc. discloses or may disclose that information, and the choices and means, if any, Bigpoint Inc. offers individuals for limiting the use and disclosure of their personal information.

Where Bigpoint Inc. receives personal information from their subsidiaries, affiliates or other entities in the EU, they will use and disclose such information in accordance with the notices provided by such entities and the choices made by the individuals to whom such personal information relates.
CHOICE: Bigpoint Inc. will offer individuals the opportunity to choose (opt-out) whether their personal information is (a) to be disclosed to a non-agent third party, or (b) to be used for a purpose other than the purpose for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual.
For sensitive personal information, Bigpoint Inc. will give individuals the opportunity to affirmatively and explicitly (opt-in) consent to the disclosure of the information to a nonagent third party or the use of the information for a purpose other than the purpose for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual.
Bigpoint Inc. will provide individuals with reasonable mechanisms to exercise their choices.
DATA INTEGRITY: Bigpoint Inc. will use personal information only in ways that are compatible with the purposes for which it was collected or subsequently authorized by the individual.

Where Bigpoint Inc. becomes aware that an agent is using or disclosing personal information in a manner contrary to this Policy, Bigpoint Inc. will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop the use or disclosure.
