This Privacy Policy applies to sites owned and operated by Aria Systems (“Aria,” “We,” “Us,” or “Our”). Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we provide this Privacy Policy explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about how your information is collected, used, disclosed, transferred, and secured. It also describes your choices regarding our use of your personal information and how you can access and update this information. To make this Privacy Policy easy to find, we have provided a link to it on the footer of every page and at every point where personal information may be requested. This policy describes our privacy practices concerning the use of Aria’s websites and the related applications, services, and programs offered by Aria, as well as individuals’ choices regarding the use, access, and correction of personal information.

EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework with UK Extension, and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework

Aria participates in and has certified its compliance with the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks with the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Aria is committed to subjecting all personal data received from European Union (EU) member countries, the United Kingdom (UK), and Switzerland in reliance on the Data Privacy Framework, to the Framework’s applicable Principles. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework, visit the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Data Privacy Framework website and the Data Privacy Framework List.

Aria is responsible for processing personal data it receives under the Data Privacy Framework and subsequently transfers to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. Aria complies with the Data Privacy Framework Principles for all onward transfers of personal data from the EU, UK, and Switzerland, including the onward transfer liability provisions.

If you have an unresolved privacy or data use concern that we have not addressed satisfactorily, please contact our U.S.-based third-party dispute resolution provider (free of charge) at https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request. Under certain conditions, more fully described on the Data Privacy Framework website, you may invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have been exhausted.

For personal data received or transferred under the Data Privacy Frameworks, Aria is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. In certain situations, Aria may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Our commitment to data security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have established appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us during transmission and after receiving it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage method is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Information provided in response to a consumer request shall be provided free of charge, up to twice annually per consumer. If requests are manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive, we may charge a reasonable fee to cover the administrative costs of complying with the request or decline to act on the request.
