This Policy covers only the Site identified above, and does not apply to information which you may send us by other means. Other LEKATO sites and other online locations may have their own privacy policies, and you should consult those accordingly.

This Policy is effective as of: May 5, 2020.

1. Collection and Use of Information

Personally identifiable information (“PII”) is generally defined as information that may be able to identify you, information that could reasonably be linked to you, or information that may be used to get access to your online accounts. PII could include, but is not limited to, name, address, phone number, email address and other online identifiers, username and password (or security question and answer), payment information, professional or employment-related information, browsing or search history, personal preferences and characteristics, etc.

There are areas on the Site where you may be asked to provide LEKATO with PII, or where such PII or other information may be collected from you in an automated manner. For example, PII (and other related information) such as name, mailing and/or shipping address(es), phone number, email address, username and password, credit/debit card number or other payment information, your personal preferences and level of musical expertise may be collected from you when you:

  • set up an account on the Site;
  • create a username and password;
  • contact LEKATO with questions or comments;
  • participate in surveys, questionnaires, sweepstakes or contests;
  • sign up for Plugged In, the LEKATO Official Newsletter;
  • order and pay for products and services through the Site; and/or
  • complete and submit the Site’s warranty registration form.
    If you use the Site on your phone, tablet or other mobile device, you may allow the Site to find and track the location of your device. Your device should seek your permission before collecting and tracking your location.

LEKATO may use your PII and other information to:

  • maintain proper business records and other relevant records;
  • provide ongoing technical support related to your use of the Site;
  • administer and secure your account;
  • contact you if there are issues with content that you uploaded or posted through the Site;
  • process payment information when you order a product or service through the Site;
  • ship to you products or services that you order through the Site;
  • send you marketing communications based on your order history and preferences;
  • respond to questions or comments;
  • communicate with you regarding additional uses of your PII beyond the scope of this list;
  • deliver content and services through the Site;
  • process and catalog responses to surveys or questionnaires;
  • enter you in contests and other promotions;
  • send you LEKATO newsletters and other updates;
  • process your warranty registration;
  • improve the content and general administration of the Site;
  • perform internal Site operations (e.g., fraud prevention);
  • troubleshoot software issues and operational problems with the Site;
  • conduct data analysis and testing; and/or
  • monitor Site usage.

LEKATO collects certain information that is less likely to personally identify you in a number of ways, including tracking your activities through your IP address, computer settings or most-recently visited URL, by using data-tracking software which tells us what parts of the Site you have browsed. We may use this information to tell you about products or services which we feel may be of interest to you, and we may also share this information with other parties from whom we believe you may want to receive information. Any information about you, whether obtained through collection or tracking, may be used to contact you again either by online electronic communication (such as e-mail), or by regular mail or telephone.

We will also be collecting and tracking information about activities on our Site on an aggregate (i.e., group) basis, where we will not know or keep track of precisely who you are, so that we may keep track of what users may be interested in, to help us in our marketing efforts.

We also collect passive information for purposes such as testing and improving a user’s experience at the site and for compiling broad aggregate demographic data and related usage data for LEKATO’s internal purposes. The types of passive information include, but are not limited to, your IP address, which type of browser you are using, where you go on our Site and how long you stay on any part of our Site. We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer the Site. We may also track how you interact with the Site by assigning a random string of numbers and characters to your session. Passive information does not identify you to LEKATO by name, and LEKATO does not link your IP address to your PII.

By providing to LEKATO the PII and other information referenced above, you agree that Hoshino USA may use the PII and other information in accordance with the terms of this Policy.

2. Cookie Policy

Cookie PolicyWhen you view our Site, we may store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a “cookie” or similar file. Cookies are small pieces of information placed on your hard drive when you visit the Site. Cookies allow you to enter our Site without re-entering your information each time. We also use cookies to deliver content that is specific to your interests. Hoshino USA does not use cookies to collect PII.

3. Sharing of PII and Other Information

Except as noted herein, LEKATO does not sell or share your PII with any person or entity outside of LEKATO.

LEKATO may share certain portions of PII and other information with its vendors in order to make the Site and Site-related services function properly. This may include sharing PII with:

  • Stripe, our credit card processing entity, in order to process any credit/debit card payments made through the Site;
  • our shipping providers to send you products that you order through the Site; and/or
  • our email vendors to send you newsletters to which you have subscribed.

LEKATO will disclose your PII or other information if it reasonably believes it is required to do so by law or in cooperation with a governmental or law enforcement investigation. LEKATO may also share PII or other information in order to avoid imminent physical harm to any person or harm to any LEKATO property.

LEKATO may share your PII with a third party if LEKATO’s ownership status changes, such as if LEKATO is acquired or if LEKATO acquires another entity.

Other than what is referenced above, the PII and other data collected from you is not shared with nor sold to any person or entity outside of LEKATO.

4. How long we retain your information

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. We do this so we can recognize and automatically approve any subsequent comments instead of holding them in a review queue.

For users who register on this site, we also store the personal information they provide in their profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username); site administrators can also see and edit that information.

5. What rights you have over your information

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
