Security

The company intends to take reasonable steps to protect the Personal Information you share with us from unauthorized access or disclosure. When you transmit Personal Information to our servers, your information is protected by both a “firewall” (a combination of computer hardware and software that helps keep unauthorized visitors from accessing information within our computer network) and industry-standard SSL (secure socket layer) encryption. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or stored on a server can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your Personal Information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your Personal Information.

If you create an account on the Site, you may be asked to choose a password for your account, in which case your password shall protect your online account information. We recommend that you do not disclose your password to any other person. You are responsible for maintaining your password and account confidentiality and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account.

Credit card information during the transaction process on a BIN Science LLC website is encrypted through SSL before it is transmitted over the Internet. Payment transactions are processed by a third-party payment processing company.

Children’s Privacy

This Site is not intended for use by children under the age of 16, and BIN Science LLC does not knowingly collect or use any Personal Information from such children. If you are under the age of 16, do not submit any information to this Site.

California Privacy Rights - Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act

Under California Civil Code sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to ask us for a notice describing what categories of personal customer information we share with third parties or corporate affiliates for those third parties or corporate affiliates' direct marketing purposes. That notice will identify the categories of information shared and will include a list of the third parties and affiliates with which it was shared, along with their names and addresses. If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this notice, please submit an email request to customersupport@roex.com. Please allow 30 days for a response.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides you with rights regarding how your data or personal information is treated. Under the legislation, California residents can choose to opt out of the “sale” of their personal information to third parties. Based on the CCPA definition, “sale” refers to data collection for the purpose of creating advertising and other communications.
What Does it Mean to “Sell” “Personal Information” Under the CCPA?
The CCPA defines “sale” and “personal information” beyond how you might commonly interpret those terms. Under the CCPA, “personal information” includes information that is not necessarily directly tied to an individual’s identity but may be associated with a device. This includes identifiers such as IP addresses, web cookies, web beacons, and mobile Ad IDs. In many cases, these types of information do not directly identify you, but they are unique identifiers that could be linked to you and therefore covered by the CCPA. The term “sell” is broadly defined to include not just selling in exchange for money, but also sharing personal information (including information that does not directly identify an individual as described above) in exchange for anything of value, which is not limited to the exchange of money.
Certain things are not considered “sales,” including when (1) personal information is shared with a service provider that is contractually prohibited from using the personal information for any purpose beyond the service specifically requested (the CCPA’s “service provider exception”), or (2) when the consumer has directed a company to disclose the personal information (the CCPA’s “consumer directed exception”). Learn more about CCPA and your privacy rights.
How to opt out

By clicking on the link on our Do Not Sell page, we will no longer collect or sell your personal information. This applies to both third-parties and the data we collect to help personalize your experience on our website or through other communications. For more information, view our privacy policy.
