We do not ask for credit card numbers or other payment details through the Website.

- To provide price estimates through QuoteBOT, based on the destination country you select.
- To process and fulfil orders, arrange shipping and communicate about them.
- To understand how visitors use the Website and to improve its content, performance and security.
- To measure the effectiveness of our online advertising.
- To prevent abuse, fraud and spam, and to comply with legal obligations.
We will only send you commercial email related to your enquiry or an existing business relationship, and you can ask us to stop at any time.
Drawings and technical data
Drawings, 3D models, specifications and other technical files you send us are treated as confidential. We use them only to evaluate, quote and manufacture your parts, and we do not share them with third parties other than service providers or subcontractors who need them to complete your order and are bound to keep them confidential. If you require a formal non-disclosure agreement, please contact us before sending your files.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. We and our service providers use cookies and similar technologies to remember basic preferences, to compile aggregate statistics about Website traffic and use, and to measure advertising. The Website uses Google Tag Manager and Google advertising and analytics tags, which may set cookies and collect information such as your IP address and the pages you visit. Google's use of this information is governed by Google's own privacy policy.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google advertising personalization through Google Ads Settings or by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. If you turn cookies off, the Website will still work, although some measurement features will not.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in these limited cases:
- with service providers that help us operate the Website and our business, such as web hosting, email, analytics and advertising providers, who may use it only to provide services to us;
- with shipping and logistics partners, when needed to deliver an order;
- when required by law, court order or government request, or to protect the rights, property or safety of APPORO, our customers or others;
- in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, in which case the information would remain subject to this policy.
We may share aggregated or de-identified information that cannot be used to identify you.
International transfers
APPORO is based in Taiwan, and our service providers may be located in other countries. By submitting information through the Website you understand that it may be transferred to, stored and processed in Taiwan and other countries whose data protection rules may differ from those of your country.
Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including to meet legal, accounting and reporting requirements, and then delete or anonymize it.
How we protect your information
The Website is served over HTTPS, and access to the systems that store enquiry data is restricted to authorized staff who are required to keep it confidential. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, to correct or delete it, to object to or restrict certain processing, or to withdraw consent you have given. To exercise any of these rights, or to ask us to stop sending you email, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, and we will respond within a reasonable time and as required by applicable law.
Third-party websites
The Website may link to third-party websites, such as social media pages. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Please read their privacy policies before providing personal information.
Children's privacy
The Website is intended for business customers and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
