East of Maui may send out periodic e-mails informing you of technical service issues related to a product or service you requested.

East of Maui strictly protects the security of your personal information. We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
Your personal information is never intentionally shared outside the company without your permission, except under conditions explained above. Inside the company, data is stored on password-controlled servers with limited access.
Whenever you send information to East of Maui through its website, the transaction is processed through a Secure Socket Layer (SSL). The SSL encrypts all user-sensitive information you input before it is sent to us. Furthermore, all of the customer data we collect is protected against unauthorized access.
Please remember that protection of your privacy begins with you. You are solely responsible for maintaining your secrecy, and you should always be careful and responsible whenever disclosing information online. Although we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard the privacy of your personal information, transmissions made by means of the Internet cannot be made absolutely secure. Therefore, EAST OF MAUI assumes no liability for disclosure of data due to errors in transmission or unauthorized third parties.
