Privacy Policy

Avinet Privacy Policy – 5/24/2018

As part of our effort to improve your experience using the Avinet site, we've created a Privacy Policy that describes how your personal information is collected, used, shared, and protected when you make a purchase from www.avinet.com.

What information is collected
When you place an order with us, you are invited to log in (optional), so that we can identify who you are. As a new customer, it will be suggested that you register for future identification. The registration page asks you to enter your name, a username, a password, and your email address. You can update this information at any time by clicking on the "my account" link at the top of every page.

We request information from you on our order form. To purchase products from us, you must provide contact information (name, phone number, email and shipping addresses) and financial information (credit card number, expiration date). This information is ONLY used for billing purposes and to fill your orders. If we have trouble processing an order, we'll use this information to contact you. Orders being shipped to customers outside of the United States require name and address information be provided to United States Customs.

How do we use and protect your information?

We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our customers. We do not and will never share, disclose, sell, rent, or otherwise provide personal information to other companies.

We use third party payment processors to assist us in processing and share with them your payment information securely. Such third party processors’ use of your personal information is governed by their respective privacy policies which may or may not contain privacy protections as protective as this privacy policy.
