WHO WE ARE

Automated Export Processing, Inc. (“AEP”) owns and manages the website at www.easyexport.net (the “Website”) and the EasyExport service (“EasyExport”).  EasyExport is an automation assisted platform that helps U.S. exporters of firearms, optics, parts, accessories and related products (“Firearm Products”) do business with International Buyers outside the United States.  AEP understands that you care about how your personal data is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice describes how AEP treats the personal data that may become available to AEP when you visit our Website but do not also perform the detailed process of providing information required to set up an EasyExport International Buyer account (“International Buyer Account”).  

If you decide to set up an International Buyer Account, your personal data will be managed as described in the International Buyer Account Privacy Policy that you can review on the set up pages.
