NIRI Website Privacy Policy and Disclaimer
Who We Are
This is the ("NIRI GLOBAL") Website Privacy Policy. Please note our contact information below if you'd like
to reach out.
NIRI values individual privacy and wants to give visitors the opportunity to know what information we
collect about them and how they can limit the use of personally identifiable information beyond the purposes
for which they first provided it. At all times, however, NIRI reserves the right to disclose information
where required by law or to comply with valid legal process (such as a search warrant, subpoena or court
order), to protect NIRI's rights or property, including without limitation in the event of a transfer of
control of NIRI or substantially all of its assets, or during emergencies when safety is at risk.
Whenever we change our policy, we will give reasonable notice by posting a notice on our home page. Since
these policy change notices last only for a limited time, however, you should check this Privacy Policy
regularly to see if there have been any changes.
