Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 27, 2023
The following Privacy Policy governs the online information collection practices of Aquatek Coatings LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). Specifically, it outlines the types of information we gather about you while you are using the AquatekCoatings.com website (the “Site”) and any associated online applications or services (the “Apps”), whether offered through the Site or through another delivery method, such as Facebook, and the ways in which we use and do not use this information.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to information you may provide to us, or that we may collect, offline or through other means.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By visiting or using the Site and Apps, you accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy and agree that your use of our Site and Apps, and any dispute concerning privacy, is governed by this Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions.
Because the web is an evolving medium, we may need to change our Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the revised Privacy Policy on AquatekCoatings.com and update the Effective Date to reflect the date of those changes. By continuing to use the Site and Apps after changes are posted, you accept the Privacy Policy as modified. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you understand our current privacy practices.
What Information Is Collected?
The information we collect about you while you are using the Site and Apps falls into two general categories:
1. Information You Provide to Us
We may collect and store information, personal or otherwise, that you voluntarily provide while using the Site or Apps, through a third party such as Facebook, or when responding via email in connection with a feature provided through the Site or Apps.
Examples of this type of information may include demographic information you electronically submit when signing up for access to certain features; information such as your name or email address that you provide when registering; information submitted through surveys, sweepstakes, or contests; information you post on message boards; and information contained in search requests, questions, or other submissions made through the Site and Apps.
If you decline to provide certain information while using the Site and Apps, you may not be able to use or participate in some or all of the features offered through the Site and Apps.
2. Information That Is Automatically Collected
We also collect and store certain information that is generated automatically as you navigate through the Site and Apps.
For example, to enhance your experience, we may use a standard browser feature commonly known as a “cookie.” Cookies are small files that your web browser places on your device for record-keeping purposes. By showing how and when visitors use the Site and Apps, cookies can help us identify user trends and patterns. They may also prevent you from having to re-enter preferences in areas of the Site or Apps where you have previously provided preference information.
In addition to cookies, we may use other tracking and reporting technologies, methodologies, or algorithms to automatically collect information.
We may also automatically collect information about your device’s connection to the Internet, browser type, and IP address. This information allows us, among other things, to improve the delivery of our web pages and other content and to measure traffic on the Site and Apps.
In addition, third-party advertisers or third-party ad servers that place or present advertising on the Site and Apps may collect information from you through cookies, web beacons, clear GIFs, or similar technologies. These third-party advertisers and ad servers may use the information they collect to present advertisements, measure or research advertising effectiveness, or for other purposes.
The collection and use of your information by these third parties is governed by the applicable third party’s privacy policy and is not covered by this Privacy Policy. The privacy policies of third-party advertisers and ad servers may differ from ours.
How Is This Information Used?
We may use the information we collect from you while you are using the Site and Apps in a variety of ways, including to customize features, content, and advertising that appear on the Site and Apps.
We may also provide your information to third parties, such as service providers, contractors, and advertisers, for various purposes. For example, we may provide advertisers with information about visitors that allows them to better target advertisements to specific types of users.
We reserve the right to use and disclose to third parties information that we collect online about you and other visitors as permitted by applicable law and as described in this Privacy Policy.
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily make personal information available for viewing by third parties online—for example, on message boards, through email, web logs, or in chat areas—that information may be seen, collected, and used by others. We cannot be responsible for unauthorized third-party use of information that you voluntarily make publicly available.
Third-Party Websites and Services
The Site and Apps may include links to other websites and may provide access to products or services offered by third parties whose privacy policies we do not control.
When you access another website or purchase third-party products or services through the Site or Apps, the use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the website operator or provider of those products or services.
We encourage you to be aware when leaving our Site or Apps and to review the privacy policies of websites and services that collect personally identifiable information.
Third-Party Providers
We may make certain content, products, and services available through our Site and Apps through cooperative relationships with third-party providers. In some cases, the brand of a provider partner may appear on the Site or Apps in connection with such content, products, or services.
We may share with a provider partner information you provide, or information collected during your visit, when you access pages or services made available in cooperation with that provider.
In some cases, a provider partner may collect information from you directly. In those situations, the provider partner’s privacy policy may apply to its collection and use of your information. The privacy policies of our provider partners may differ from ours.
If you have questions regarding the privacy practices of one of our provider partners, you should contact that provider directly for additional information. You should also review any applicable privacy policy presented on the page or service you are using.
Legal Disclosures
We may disclose information about visitors when we believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with applicable law, enforce our Terms and Conditions, or protect the rights, property, or safety of users of the Site and Apps, the public, or Aquatek Coatings LLC.
This may include sharing information with other companies, attorneys, agents, governmental authorities, or other appropriate parties.
Business Transfers
As our business grows, we may buy, sell, or transfer various assets. If the ownership of Aquatek Coatings LLC changes, we sell some or all of our assets, or our Site or Apps are acquired by another company or person, information regarding our visitors may be transferred as part of that transaction.
