Disclosure When Required by Law
Filco Inc. may be required to disclose your personal information when the law requires it or in case of a subpoena.

Storage Time of Personal Data
Personal information is not stored or kept longer than necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected.
Security Measures
We have implemented various security measures to safeguard your personal information when you place an order or when you enter, submit, or access this information.
We use a secure server to ensure the confidentiality of your information. The credit information you provide is transmitted via SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology and is then encrypted into the payment gateway providers’ database. Only authorized individuals with special access rights to these systems can access them and are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information.
We do not store your personal information, such as credit cards, financial information, etc., on our servers once the transaction is complete.
We place great importance on the security of your personal information. That said, it is important to note that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is ever 100% secure. We implement appropriate and commercially accepted security measures to protect your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Our site may contain links to other sites that are not under our control. If you decide to click on one of these links, you will be redirected to a third-party site. We strongly recommend reading the privacy policy of each site you visit.
Filco Inc. cannot guarantee or control the content, privacy policies, or practices of third-party sites or services and is therefore not responsible for these aspects of third-party sites or services.
