Security measures.

5.1 No data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

5.2 When you give Marantz personal information, that information may be electronically sent to servers outside of the country where you originally entered the information. In addition, that information may be used, stored and/or processed outside of the country where you entered that information. Whenever Marantz (or a third party engaged by us to that purpose) handles personal information, regardless of where this occurs, it takes steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with the relevant Terms and Conditions and this Statement.
