What Is Personal Information?
This Privacy Policy is applicable to all users of S2H.COM, defined below, and all customers of S2H who provide personal identifiable information ("PII"). When this Privacy Policy uses the term "PII", we mean information that identifies a particular individual, such as the individual's full name (first name and surname together), postal address, and email address. When certain other information, or other non-identifiable information is directly associated with PII, this other information also becomes PII for purposes of this Privacy Policy. Some jurisdictions may call personally identifiable information "personal data" or "personally identifying information," and may include opinions about or related to a user within the definition of PII. We sometimes refer to PII in this Privacy Policy as "personal information."
