NOTICE OF PRIVACY POLICY
Commitment to Privacy
We care about protecting the confidentiality and security of our customers' personal non-public information, and we want you to know what our policies are regarding this information. Please read this privacy policy to better understand our practices for collecting and using information.
By using this website, you are accepting our policies outlined below.
- Collection and Use of Information
We gather customer information to process orders, fulfill requests that you have made, contact you regarding your order, respond to your inquiries, deliver offers and information about our products, promotions or website, administer our business, and for verification purposes.
When you visit our site, we may collect non-personally identifiable information from you. Through the use of computer "cookies", we collect data, such as your IP address, browser type, domain name, and specific web pages through which you click. This data is collected automatically and used to help us look for trends so that we can improve our website and present you with personalized offers and promotions. Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored by the browser on your hard drive. We may store some information on visitors' computers in the form of a cookie or similar file. The cookies that are configured by us do not contain any personally identifying information such as your name or sensitive information such as your credit card number. The cookies simply allow us to save passwords and preferences for you, recognize you when you return to our site, and to provide you with a customized experience that we feel will be of value to you. Most web browsers allow you to exercise control over cookie files on your computer by erasing them, blocking them, or notifying you when such a file is stored. You can look at your particular browser for instructions on these functions. If you disable the metalforming-usa.com cookie, please note that you may not be able to take full advantage of a personalized experience at our website.
When you purchase from us, we will ask you to voluntarily provide certain personally identifiable information such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and credit card number. We need this information to process and fulfill your order, notify you of order status, and provide personalized customer interaction with you.
In some cases, we may collect information about your transactions with us or others such as account balances, financial and credit history and account activity. We may also receive information from consumer reporting agencies such as credit bureau reports and other information relating to creditworthiness.
We do not rent or sell customer information to outside marketers. However, we may share your information with third parties in order to provide you with products or services that you have requested, to facilitate payment and collection, and to enable third party service providers to render operational or other support services to us. We may also report information regarding your account with us to credit bureaus. We will provide information to regulatory authorities and law enforcement officials in accordance with applicable law or when we otherwise believe in good faith that the law requires it. In the event of a sale of all or one part of our business, we may share customer information related to that business as part of the transaction.
We may send you e-mails with promotional and other offers. If you would no longer like to receive such e-mails, you may notify us at: customerservice@metalforming-usa.com
We do not knowingly collect or maintain information provided by persons under the age of 18.
- How We Protect Your Information
We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in order to protect your personal information including firewall, anti-virus software, secure socket layer (SSL) technology, and limited and password protected access by personnel. We educate our employees about safeguarding customer information and preventing its unauthorized access, disclosure, or use. When credit card information is transmitted online, we use the industry standard security measure, SSL, which encrypts sensitive information like credit card numbers before they are sent to us over the Internet.
To help protect you from schemes like fraudulent or "spoofed" e-mails that request personal information such as credit card numbers, you may know that we do not ask you to transmit personal information like your password, bank account number, PIN, or credit card information via e-mail, nor do we send e-mails claiming we lost your account information or need you to update your records via e-mail.
Even with these protections, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot ensure the security of any information you transmit to us. However, once we receive your transmission, we use our best efforts to protect it in accordance with the policies set forth here.
- Accessing and Correcting Information
We want our customers to have access to the information they have previously provided to us so they may update their data. At the same time, we want to protect the information from unauthorized users. Metalforming, Inc. will therefore request verification of identity before making any corrections to the data.
Our website may contain links to other websites. Such links do not imply that we control the content of the linked site, therefore, our privacy policy does not apply once you link to another site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of any linked websites.
- Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time with all changes effective immediately. Please check our policy periodically for changes. If there are significant changes to this policy, we will provide notice of such change by posting the amended policy on our website and showing the new effective date of the amended policy.
Any questions or concerns about our privacy policy can be discussed with Russell Davis, Website Administrator at (770)631-0002 or rdavis@metalforming-usa.com.
MetalForming, Inc. Privacy Policy Effective Date: June 1, 2008.
