Your use of the viper.direct site and/or your registration for Viper Direct products and services constitute your consent to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Viper Direct website.
Viper Direct may occasionally update this Privacy Policy. When it does, Viper Direct will also revise the “last updated” date at the top.

A customer may withdraw his or her consent for collection, use and disclosure at any time by sending an email to support@viper.direct.

Viper Direct will afford you a reasonable opportunity to review the personal information in your file, if you request to the Privacy Officer at support@viper.direct.
If Viper Direct is not able to provide access to some aspect of a customer’s personal information, it will provide reasons for denying access such as; that by doing so would likely reveal personal information about a third party, or that it is confidential commercial information or attorney–client privileged communications, or that the information relates to a breach of an agreement or a contravention of law, or that its disclosure could reasonably be expected to threaten the life or security of another individual.
Customers have the right to request that inaccurate or incomplete information be amended as appropriate, by contacting Viper Direct or the Privacy Officer as described above.
