Our website doesn’t have annoying pop-ups, and we never force you to accept cookies or sign up for newsletters. Accepting cookies can pose privacy risks, be used for tracking, and potentially harm your privacy. You’ll never see annoying pop-ups on our website requesting your consent to non-consent policies that store sensitive personal information, such as your home address, IP address, or other personal data.

Beware of Fake, Phishing, and Spoofing Emails.
Please do not respond to these emails, do not communicate with the sender, and refrain from providing them with any personal or financial information. Avoid clicking links in emails or attachments, as they may load malware or viruses onto the recipient’s computer. If you receive email solicitations from anyone posing as the company, its affiliates, or company officers that appear even remotely suspicious, contact us ASAP.
Protect yourself from Fake News and Scams. Do not click or respond if you receive a Text, Call, or Email that Seems Suspicious.
Please be aware of ONLINE SCAMMERS who may email you using Oz Robotics’ name in their fake emails, showing the name “Oz Robotics” by using a masking technique as if the email comes from OzRobotics.com, and ask you to reset your password, OR ask you to click on the link in their emails to confirm your account. If you review their email closely, you will notice the free email services they use, including Gmail, Yahoo, QQ.com, Mail.RU, Hotmail, and Yandex.
We never use free public email addresses to send emails!
Regardless of the reason, we will never email you from free email services such as Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, Mail.ru, or any other domain names. We will always email our customers, affiliates, and partners from the @ozrobotics.com or @ozrobotics.us domain names.
SCAMMERS may also mail fake checks or packages.
Please do not accept them. We never mail anyone a business or personal check, as we process all transactions exclusively through PayPal or Stripe, secure online payment processors. We ship parcels via reputable, well-established shipping companies, including FedEx, UPS, DHL, and USPS. So be aware of scammers and looters.
Do NOT scan a package left at your door with your smartphone!
Do not scan QR codes on unsolicited packages, as scammers commonly use this tactic to steal your personal or financial information. Scammers send these packages with a QR code to trick you into visiting a fake website that asks you to enter sensitive data. They often send the packages without a return address to encourage you to use the QR code to identify the sender.
Recognize and Report Fraud – DO NOT OPEN, DO NOT REPLY, and DO NOT CLICK ON EMAIL LINKS without reading and understanding!
Scammers rely on urgency to induce panic. Be cautious of anything that implies you must act immediately. Take the time to review the message, then review it again.
