In general, you can visit MNJ on the Internet without telling us who you are and without giving any personal information about yourself. There are times, however, when we or our partners may need information from you.
You may choose to give us personal information in a variety of situations. For example, you may want to give us information, such as your name and address or e-mail id, to correspond with you, to process an order, or to provide you with a subscription. You may give us your credit card details to buy something from us or a description of your education and work experience in connection with a job opening at MNJ that you wish to be considered for. We intend to let you know how we will use such information before we collect it from you; if you tell us that you do not want us to use this information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your requests, we will respect your wishes. If you give us personal information about somebody else, such as a spouse or work colleague, we will assume that you have their permission to do so.

MNJ is a global organization, with legal entities, business processes, management
structures, and technical systems that cross borders.
Our privacy practices are designed to provide protection for your personal information,
all over the world.
We may share your personal information within MNJ and transfer it to countries in
the world where we do business.
Some countries may provide less legal protection for your information. In such countries
MNJ will still handle information in the manner we describe here.
Back to Top
We intend to protect your personal information and to maintain its quality. We implement
appropriate measures and processes, such as using encryption when transmitting certain
sensitive information, to help us to keep your information secure and to maintain
its quality.
Back to Top
From time to time we may supplement information you give us via an MNJ Web site
with information from other sources, such as information validating your address
or other available information about businesses. This is to help us maintain the
accuracy of the information we collect and to help us provide a better service.

In some cases MNJ uses suppliers to collect, use, analyze and otherwise process
information on its behalf. It is MNJ's practice to require such suppliers to handle
information in a manner consistent with MNJ's policies

Cookies, Web Beacons and Other Technologies
We sometimes collect non-identifiable information from visits to our Web sites to
help us provide better customer service. For example, we keep track of the domains
from which people visit, and we also measure visitor activity on MNJ Web sites,
but we do so in ways that keep the information non-identifiable. This information
is sometimes known as "clickstream data." MNJ or others on MNJ's behalf may use
this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better customer
service.
Also, when we collect personal data from you in a transaction, we may extract some
information about that transaction in an non-identifiable format and combine it
with other non-identifiable information such as clickstream data. This information
is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and
patterns. This information is not reviewed at an individual level. If you do not
want your transaction details used in this manner you can disable your cookies.
We collect the information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use
of various technologies, including one called "cookies". A cookie is a piece of
data that a Web site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your
computer as an anonymous tag that identifies your computer but not you. Some MNJ
pages use cookies, sent by MNJ or its third party vendors, or other technologies
to better serve you when you return to the Web site. You can set your browser to
notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether
to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however,
some Web sites may not work properly.
Some MNJ Web sites also use Web beacon or other technologies to better tailor those
sites to provide better customer service. These technologies may be in use on a
number of pages across MNJ's Web sites. When a visitor accesses these pages, a non-identifiable
notice of that visit is generated which may be processed by us or by our suppliers.
These Web beacons usually work in conjunction with cookies. If you don't want your
cookie information to be associated with your visits to these pages, you can set
your browser to turn off cookies.
If you turn off cookies, Web beacon and other technologies will still detect visits
to these pages, but the notices they generate cannot be associated with other non-identifiable
cookie information and are disregarded. For more information, please see
"How to work with Cookies".

Certain Web transactions may also involve you calling us or our calling you. Please
be aware that it is MNJ's general practice to monitor and in some cases record such
calls for staff training or quality assurance purposes.

Certain companies help us deliver interactive on-line advertising such as banner
ads. These companies may collect and use information about customers to help us
better understand the offers, promotions, and types of advertising that are most
appealing to our customers. After it is collected the information is aggregated
so it is not identifiable to a specific individual.

On occasion, we may personalize and customize Web sites for certain visitors. If
you visit one of these sites, you may find it customized with references to products
and/or services that we believe may be of interest to you, based on your previous
interactions with MNJ and information you have provided to us. While you are visiting
these Web sites, we may collect information about your visit to better tailor the
site to your interests. An invitation to visit one of these Web sites is usually
presented as a personalized URL in an e-mail, a notice on a Web site registration
page, or as a response to you logging on to a certain Web site.
If you choose to visit one of these Web sites, you are agreeing to let MNJ collect
information about your visits and also to its association with other information
about you and your relationship with MNJ. If you do not wish your information to
be used in this way, do not accept the invitation to visit these sites.

Please be aware that in certain circumstances, it is possible that personal information
may be subject to disclosure pursuant to judicial or other government subpoenas,
warrants, or orders.

Technology will increasingly help give you more control over your personal information.
