Who We Are

plus24 is based in Los Angeles, CA, USA and manages distribution of Brainstorm Electronics worldwide, and Sanken Microphones, DAD, NTP Technology, LMC Sound and Marian products in North America. Our customers are authorized dealers for the brands we represent. We also provide brand marketing and sales assistance services to our dealers. Our focus is bringing new technologies to media production.

plus24 Privacy Policy

plus24 operates three websites including plus24.net, sankenchromatic.com, and sankenmicrophones.com. plus24 is committed to protecting your privacy, and that includes protecting the privacy of any data you share with us.

We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to plus24’s SSL Secure websites choose to interact with us in ways that require plus24 to gather personally-identifying information. Contact, Support forms, and requests for us to include customers in email lists for Email News Updates only include Name, Email Address and Country. Data we collect from interactions with customers at shows like AES, NAB and NAMM can also include an Address, Phone number and business information such as Company Name and Title.  Where we personally visit or interact with customers, during our sales and support operations, and via email or phone, we may collect contact information for use during the normal execution of our sales and distribution business.

In each case, plus24 collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with plus24. plus24 does not disclose personally-identifying information to any 3rd parties and the information is used solely for our own sales, marketing, and support operations. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related and sales activities.

Financial transaction information with our dealer customers is handled in a separate secure CRM system from our web site, email platforms, exhibition and general sales contact data. None of our websites include e-commerce capabilities so no financial transactions occur through our plus24 and Sanken websites.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data. Sensitive personal data is data of the kind regulated by Article 9 or Article 10 of the GDPR, such as personal identity numbers; financial account information; information concerning racial or ethnic origin; political opinions; religious, philosophical, or other beliefs; membership in trade unions or professional or trade associations; physical or mental health information; biometric data; genetic data; data concerning sexual activity or orientation; or data concerning criminal records or suspected criminal activity.

Additionally, we do not intentionally collect personal data from anyone under the age of eighteen (18), and to the extent reasonably possible we take steps to verify that you are a legal adult when we collect data from you. By using our website, products, or services, and by submitting any data to us, you warrant that you are eighteen (18) years of age or older.

What about data we obtain from third parties?

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. Sometimes we may obtain your personal data from a third party, either through the use of our website or through some of our products or services. Due to the nature of our products, it is possible that we may even obtain your data unsolicited from a third party. We may also obtain your personal data from our business related partners through contractual relationships or through software they develop. We apply the same standards of security and privacy to all personal data in our possession, and you have rights with respect to your data regardless of its source.

Do we share your data?

We may transfer your data to our business related partners, some of whom may be located in other countries. We strive to do business only with partners who uphold high standards of data privacy and security, and whenever we transfer data to a third party, we take steps to make sure that the data will remain secure and private as required by applicable law and our internal guidelines. Sometimes we may be required to share your data for specific purposes. These purposes may include:

  • In order for us to comply with a legal obligation or to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud or crime
  • In order to detect or correct technical or security issues
  • In order to apply or enforce our Terms and Conditions, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, you, our customers, our business related partners, others, or the public
