Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with our privacy practices and let us know if you have any questions. If you have any query, please do call us at +8801787 688 677.
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Personal information is data that can be used to uniquely identify or contact a single person. You may be asked to provide your personal information anytime you are in contact with Paragon or a Paragon affiliated company. Paragon and its affiliates may share this personal information with each other and use it according to the terms of this Privacy Policy. They may also combine it with other information to provide and improve our products, services, content, and advertising. We may collect the following information:
- Name
- Contact information including email address
- Demographic information such as postcode, preferences and interests
- Other information relevant to customer surveys and/or offers
Here are some examples of the types of personal information Paragon may collect and how we may use it:
- The personal information we collect allows us to keep you posted on Paragon’s latest product announcements, software updates, upcoming events, services updates, content and advertising. If you don’t want to be on our mailing list, you can opt out anytime by updating your preferences.
- From time to time, we may use your personal information to send important notices, such as communications/notifications/information about purchases and changes to our terms, conditions, and policies. Because this information is important to your interaction with Paragon, you may not opt out of receiving these communications.
- We may also use personal information for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis, and research to improve Paragon’s products, services, and customer communications.
- If you enter into a sweepstake, contest, or similar promotion we may use the information you provide to administer those programs.
Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information
We also collect non-personal information − data in a form that does not permit direct association with any specific individual. We may collect, use, transfer, and disclose non-personal information for any purpose. The following are some examples of non-personal information that we collect and how we may use it:
- We may collect information such as occupation, language, zip code, area code, unique device identifier, location, and the time zone where a Paragon product is used so that we can better understand customer behavior and improve our products, services, and advertising.
- We also may collect information regarding customer activities on our website or from our other products and services. This information is aggregated and used to help us provide more useful information to our customers and to understand which parts of our website, products, and services are of most interest. Aggregated data is considered non-personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy. If we do combine non-personal information with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined.
Cookies and Other Technologies
Paragon’s website, online services, interactive applications, email messages, and advertisements may use “cookies” and other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons. These technologies help us better understand user behavior, tells us which parts of our website people have visited, and facilitates and measures the effectiveness of advertisements and web searches. We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, we treat these identifiers as personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal information, we treat the combined information as personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy. Paragon and its partners use cookies and other technologies in mobile advertising services to control the number of times you see a given ad, deliver ads that relate to your interests, and measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns. You may still see ads related to the content on a web page or in an application or based on other non-personal information. This opt-out applies only to Paragon advertising services and does not affect interest-based advertising from other advertising networks. Paragon and our partners also use cookies and other technologies to remember personal information when you use our website, online services, and applications. Our goal in these cases is to make your experience with Paragon more convenient, personally and friendly. For example, knowing your first name allows us to welcome you the next time you visit the Paragon Online Store. Knowing your country and language − and if you are an educator, your school − helps us provide a customized and more useful shopping experience. Knowing someone using your computer or device has shopped for a certain product or used a particular service helps us make our advertising and email communications more relevant to your interests.

As is true of most websites, we gather some information automatically and store it in log files.

We use this information to understand and analyze trends, to administer the site, to learn about user behavior on the site, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Paragon may use this information in our marketing and advertising services. In some of our email messages, we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the Paragon website. When customers click one of these URLs, they pass through a separate web server before arriving at the destination page on our website. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If you prefer not to be tracked in this way, you should not click text or graphic links in the email messages. Pixel tags enable us to send email messages in a format which customers can read, and they tell us whether mail has been opened. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to customers.
Disclosure to Third Parties
At times Paragon may make certain personal information available to strategic partners that work with Paragon to provide products and services, or that help Paragon market to customers. For example, when you purchase and activate your iPhone, you authorize Paragon and its carrier to exchange the information you provide during the activation process to carry out service. If you are approved for service, your account will be governed by Paragon and its carrier’s respective privacy policies. Personal information will only be shared by Paragon to provide or improve our products, services and advertising; it will not be shared with third parties for their marketing purposes.

Protection of Personal Information

Paragon online services such as the Paragon Online Store uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages where personal information is collected.

Doing so protects the confidentiality of your personal information while it’s transmitted over the Internet.

Please take care when using these features.

For other personal information, we make good faith efforts to provide you with access so you can request that we correct the data if it is inaccurate or delete the data if Paragon is not required to retain it by law or for legitimate business purposes. We may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, are extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required by local law. Access, correction, or deletion requests can be made through the regional Privacy Contact Form.
