In order to provide our products and services we collect Personal Data directly from you, such as your name, email address, and phone number. In these instances, you know what Personal Data we collect because you provide it to us directly.
HOW WE COLLECT, SHARE, AND USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We also collect Personal Data from you when you communicate with us by any media. We collect your Personal Data on a voluntary basis. If you request a quote or brochure, we may require that you provide specific information to ensure delivery and execution of your request. Any Personal Data that we collect is passed on to our sales department for follow-up or to provide any information you have requested.
As a general matter, we collect Personal Data for the following purposes:
- to keep you informed and obtain your views of our products, services and activities;

Cookies
Our website uses “cookies.” Cookies are small text files that a website transfers to your computer’s hard drive. We may use cookies to measure traffic patterns, personalize content, control security and to help us make our site more useful.

Web Beacons
A web beacon (also known as a tag, clear gif or 1×1 pixel), consists of a small string of code that is embedded within a web page or email. There may or may not be a visible graphic image associated with the web beacon, and often the image is designed to blend into the background of a web page or email.
We may use web beacons in our email messages to help determine whether our messages are opened and to verify any clicks through to links within the email. We may use this information to determine which of our emails are more interesting to users, to improve the quality of the emails that we send and to query users who do not open our emails as to whether they wish to continue receiving them. The web beacon is deleted when you delete the email.
If you would prefer not to have web beacons in the emails that you receive, you should adjust your email program to receive messages in plain text rather than HTML. It is also possible to detect and control web beacons that are present on web pages by downloading a plug-in for your browser.

We’ve otherwise disclosed or may disclose the following categories of information, subject to confidentiality restrictions, to our third-party service providers as strictly necessary for them to provide services to us: names; email addresses; postal addresses; phone numbers; IP addresses; browser fingerprints; device ID; unique identifiers; cookies; geolocation data; web beacons; demographic data, such as age, gender, race/ethnicity, parental status, marital status, postal code, income and education levels; log files, including Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request, operating system, referring/exiting pages, and clickstream data; browsing information, such as date and time you visited our website(s), number of pages you viewed, time in seconds you spend on each page, and details of the any website you visited before and/or visiting our website(s)site, photos, video, and audio; and social media information (e.g., handles, basic information available on profiles).
