|
This privacy statement (also referred to as Blue Ribbon Supply's Privacy Policy) explains our privacy practices for our customers who: (1) purchase products from us in the United States of America, or (2) use our website, www.blueribbonsupply.com, or (3) purchase products through our Amazon sales channel(s). This privacy statement also represents our compliance with the California Privacy Notice (“Notice”) for California residents. It explains how we collect, use, and share your Personal Information and how to exercise your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). At Blue Ribbon Supply Company, earning and keeping your trust is an essential element of everything we do. Because of this commitment, we want you to know we respect your right to privacy and your ability to make informed choices about the uses of your information. This privacy statement explains our policy regarding the collection, use, disclosure and protection of personal information. The terms of this privacy statement apply to information collected from you, unless different terms are specified as part of a special offer, or in another form or contract we provide you and you consent to those terms by participating in the special offer or the program, or otherwise. Listed below is detailed information about our privacy practices:
Personal information is information that identifies an individual or is directly associated with a specific person or entity such as a name, address, telephone number, email address, credit card number, or information about activities which can be directly linked to that person, such as his or her purchases. Personal information also includes information for processing your orders. As a convenience to our Customers, we allow the primary account holder and/or cardholder to add his/her spouse or others to your account. In all circumstances, other than a choice to opt-out (see Choice below), reference in this policy statement to "you" or "your" also includes your spouse and others added onto your account by you. Reference in this statement to "information you provide" includes information provided by you, your spouse or others added on. Our definition of personal information does not include "aggregate" information. Aggregate information is data we collect about a group or category of products, services or website visitors, from which individual identities have been removed. In other words, information about how you use a service may be collected and combined with information about how others use the same service, but no personal information will be included in the resulting data. Likewise, information about the products you purchase may be collected and combined with information about the products purchased by others. Aggregate data helps us understand trends and Customers' needs so that we can better consider new products and services, and tailor existing products and services to Customers' desires. We collect the personal information that you provide us, such as when you:
We may automatically collect some information when you visit our website, such as your computer's network address and operating system, the site from which you linked to us, your site activity and the time and date of your visit and purchases. This information may be collected through the use of "cookies" (see Online Specifics below). We also receive information from third parties who provide Customer Services or special promotions or products (see Customer Services below) and we may combine this information with the other personal information we maintain about you. In either case, this policy statement governs this information. The personal information we collect is generally used to process your requests or transactions, provide you with high-quality service, tell you about opportunities we think will be of interest, and understand your needs so that we can serve you better. For example, we may use your telephone number, your email or your postal address to: (1) alert you about product recalls or safety issues; or (2) communicate account opportunities and programs. We also may use personal information we collect to provide you with promotional information, which is information we believe will add value to your account, such as promotions, or information about Customer Services ("Promotional Information"). If you prefer not to receive Promotional Information from us, we make it easy for you to let us know. You may contact us at any time to decline Promotional Information (see Choice below). We do not sell, rent, share or disclose personal information to third parties without your prior consent, except in the limited circumstances described below: We may provide to a third party information that is necessary to fulfill an order you have placed with us. For example, if you request shipment for a purchase, we may provide your address to the shipping carrier, and if you pay by a credit or debit card, your card number and sales transaction information are passed on to the card processor and/or issuer (including their service providers such as fraud verification services). However, we give suppliers, and others involved in the commerce distribution chain only the information needed to provide you the products or services you order, such as shipping and/or billing address, email address, telephone number and product orders. Moreover, we require them to keep the information confidential and not to use it for other purposes. We are not responsible for any additional information you provide directly to these parties, and we encourage you to become familiar with their practices before disclosing information directly to them. We offer special products and services to our customers that are provided by third parties such as rebates, travel, and other business and consumer services ("Customer Services"). We may share your name, postal address, email address and account status, number and type ("Customer Information") with these third parties in order to notify you of their offerings, to determine whether, or at what level, you qualify for the products, offerings or services, and to evaluate new and existing products, offerings or services. If you prefer that we not share Customer Information with third parties, you can contact us at any time (see Choice below). However, if you apply for or request certain products, offerings or services, information you provide will be shared directly with the third parties who will be providing the requested products, offerings or services. These third parties are required not to use personal information we share for any purposes other than providing the requested services. We are not responsible for any additional information you provide directly to these parties, and we encourage you to become familiar with their privacy and security practices and policies before disclosing information to them. If you provide additional information to third parties, they, subject to applicable laws and their privacy policies, may share with us the information you provided and information about your use of the services. In some cases, these third parties may require as a condition of providing services to you that you authorize them to share information with us. If we terminate our relationship with a third party, information you provided to them may be returned to us, and we may provide that information to a new third party offering the same or similar services. We may contract with others to perform tasks or services on our behalf. For example, we might retain a company to process credit card payments, to email information about special offers, or to analyze data. If any of our contractors need access to your personal information, we require that they promise to use the information only to perform the tasks we have engaged them to perform. We also require that they maintain the confidentiality of the information and/or return the information to us when they no longer need it. As mentioned above - (bullet point #2): We may contract with others to perform tasks or services on our behalf. As it relates to the use of Amazon and its Services Privacy Policy, please reference their online policy at: Amazon Services Privacy Notice and the Amazon.com Privacy Notice: Amazon.com Privacy Notice for more information. In addition, we may use or disclose personal information in the good faith belief that we are lawfully authorized to do so, or that doing so is reasonably necessary to protect you, to comply with legal process or authorities, to respond to any claims, or to protect the rights, property or personal safety of Blue Ribbon Supply Company, our affiliated companies, our employees, our Customers, or the public. Information about our Customers, including personal information, may be disclosed or transferred as part of, or during negotiations of, any merger or sale of company assets or acquisition. We have adopted security measures in an effort to protect personal information from loss, misuse or alteration while it is under our control. We use technical, contractual, administrative and physical measures in an effort to protect against unauthorized access. Personal information we collect is stored electronically and may be combined with other account information. We collect, process and maintain payment information, including credit card information, in compliance with the data security rules adopted by credit card companies such as American Express, Diners Club, Discover Card, MasterCard and Visa. This means that we do not retain debit card PINs or credit card security codes, and that any time we maintain a credit card number, such as when you create an online account, we use access controls and strong encryption to protect it.
