Some pages of this Site may be P3P-enabled, which allows you additional control over your personal information. Furthermore, if you contact us via email, we will have obtained your email address. We use the information we gather to enhance the user experience on this Site, to authenticate visitors and to send notifications to visitors about our products/services, contests, and special events and offers.

We will receive and record this Profile Information. You are not required to create a profile. If you create a profile, you have the ability to control which Personal Information is included in your profile. We bear no responsibility for any Profile Information you choose to include in your profile, and you are solely responsible for the accuracy and correctness of Profile Information. We do not collect payments or payment information, such as credit card numbers or bank account numbers. Non-Personal Information We also gather additional non-personal information on this Site, such as data about usage and service operations that is not associated with a specific personal identity (“Non-Personal Information”).

Other User Information Certain areas of this Site may permit you to provide answers, comments, feedback, ideas, messages, questions, suggestions, techniques, uploaded files and similar information through blogs or other similar online functions (“User Information”). Nothing requires you to disclose your identity to others. If you choose to post, publish or transmit User Information using any Site function or service, you do so at your own risk.

However, we will not reveal your full name to any other visitor. We may disclose Personal Information as legally required in order for us to respond to subpoenas, court orders, warrants, or other legal processes, or as necessary for us to enforce the Agreement. We may disclose Personal Information with your consent. We also may disclose Personal Information when disclosure is necessary in order to complete a transaction to which you have consented. We may collaborate with third parties to obtain specific services or employ companies or individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include hosting our Web servers, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, and providing customer service. These third parties, companies, and individuals may have access to Personal Information as necessary to provide those services and perform their functions. We do not process or collect payments, credit card information or bank account numbers. The privacy policies of the third parties will apply to the Personal Information you submit, rather than this Policy, and our Site will contain a link by which you can access the payment processor’s terms and conditions, and privacy policies. Where required to do so pursuant to contractual obligations, we may disclose information about your Site usage on a confidential basis to third-party auditors and to measurement and analysis firms. These parties are not permitted to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing their services to us. We may transfer Personal Information across state and country borders for the purposes of data consolidation, storage, and simplified customer information management. We may transfer Personal Information to any person or entity succeeding to our business, including as a result of the sale of all or substantially all of our assets or a merger. We will make reasonable efforts to provide notice on this Site and to notify you at the latest e-mail address you have on file with us, if there is any change in ownership or control of your Personal Information. If we transfer your Personal Information to a third party that is acting as an agent, we will ensure that the third party subscribes to the safe harbor principles or is subject to The European Commission’s Directive on Data Protection or another adequacy finding. As an alternative, we may enter into a written agreement with the third party requiring that the third party provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the safe harbor principles.

When you click on one of those URLs, we will track this click-through data to measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If you prefer that we not track this data in this manner, you should not click on any text or graphic links in our communications to you. Management of Personal Information Subject to certain exceptions, upon our receipt of written request from you and upon receiving from you sufficient information to confirm your identity, we will provide the Personal Information that we have collected about you for the purposes of enabling you to amend, correct or delete any inaccuracies. You may make this request to us via e-mail at admin@new.brinkmere.com. If the Personal Information is Profile Information, you may change it by accessing your account on this Site.

We have procedural safeguards, such as authentication procedures to prevent ID theft. We also restrict access to Personal Information to only those employees who need to know the information to provide products/services to you. We do not guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat these measures or access and use Personal Information for improper purposes. We assume no liability in those circumstances, nor for any Personal Information once it is transported onto a managed communication network (including the Internet), other than this Site. If we become aware that your Personal Information has been compromised, we promptly will notify you at the latest e-mail address you have on file with us.

As previously mentioned we may set cookies on the requesting computer and later access those cookies to help personalize and maximize the online experience and time online.

We store only “session cookies,” which store session identification information solely while your browser is open and are deleted automatically when you close your browser.

PORTIONS OF THIS SITE MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL INAPPROPRIATE FOR MINORS. Parents and legal guardians supervising use of this Site by a minor are responsible for the minor’s online conduct, controlling the minor’s access to and use of this Site, and all consequences of use and misuse by the minor. If we become aware that a minor has provided or attempted to provide us with Personal Information, we will use our best efforts to remove the personal information permanently from our files, and will take any additional required measures under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. Your California Privacy Rights Residents of the State of California, under the California Civil Code, have the right to request from companies conducting business in California a list of all third parties to which we have disclosed personal information during the preceding year for direct marketing purposes and a disclosure of the shared information. Alternatively, the law provides that if the company has a privacy policy that provides you with an “opt-out” choice for use of your personal information by third parties for marketing purposes, we may instead provide you with information on how to exercise your disclosure choice option. This Site qualifies for the alternative option. This Policy provides you with information on how you may opt-out from the use of your personal information by third parties for direct marketing purposes. Therefore, we are not required to maintain or disclose a list of the third parties that received your personal information during the preceding year for marketing purposes. If you are a California resident and desire information about how to exercise your third party disclosure choices, send a request to admin@new.brinkmere.com.
