In addition, we may also collect non-personally identifiable information (“Non-PII”), such as IP addresses (which identify your device), pages viewed, computer type, screen resolution, operating system version, Internet browser type and version, information collected through cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, and other technologies, and other data.  Because Non-PII does not personally identify you, we may collect, use and disclose Non-PII for any purpose.

We will never sell your PII to any third party not affiliated with Henua Organics Ltd without your consent except in connection with the sale or merger of Henua or the division responsible for such services.

We may disclose PII as we believe necessary or appropriate: (a) under applicable law, including laws outside your country of residence; (b) to comply with legal process; (c) to respond to requests from public and government authorities including public and government authorities outside your country of residence; (d) to enforce our terms and conditions; (e) to protect our operations or those of any of our affiliates; (f) to protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you or others; and (g) to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain.
