Shade & Shutter Systems, Inc. is committed to respecting and protecting the personal privacy of our customers and those who visit our website. It is our policy to acquire personal information from users only by overt and voluntary means, only when it is in the interest of the user to provide it, and to utilize this information only for the purpose it was provided.

 

The information that follows explains the types of information our website collects, how it is used, the conditions under which it is made available to third parties and how information is maintained.

What information does this site collect?

This site collects anonymous data that is not indicative of and cannot be traced to an individual without the cooperation of their Internet Service Provider. This data includes information about the user’s remote IP address, referral data (which page “linked” to the present request), the browser software’s user-agent string, and the number of visits each month. This information is accepted passively through cookies and the HTTP headers that are sent from the user when requesting any file from the server.

 

Personally identifiable data is collected only by means of form interfaces on the site, into which the user must voluntarily enter the information requested. This information is requested only when it is necessary to accomplish the overt purpose indicated by the interface containing the form that requests it.

 

No attempt is made to covertly or “quietly” collect personally identifiable information, nor are cookies or any other tracking technology used for the purpose of coordinating information that a user may opt to enter in various interfaces on the site.

How does ShadeandShutter.com use the information it collects?

The anonymous information collected is used to monitor the usage of this website and the interests of those who use it. Data such as the volume of traffic to the server, the number of visitors a certain section of the site receives each month, or popular search terms used to access the site are analyzed to derive general statistics about the site’s reach and the audience’s usage patterns.

 

Personally identifiable information is used only for the express purpose for which it was submitted. For example, if a visitor enters their contact information in our “Contact” form, the information will be used only to contact the visitor to confirm the reservation.

With whom does Shade & Shutter Systems, Inc. share the information that is collected?

Shade & Shutter Systems, Inc. does not share personally identifiable information collected from our website visitors with anyone.

 

Reports, statistics, and other analyses of aggregate anonymous information may be shared within the organization or provided to third parties at the sole discretion of Shade & Shutter Systems, Inc. This information does not include any personally identifiable information.

 

Exception: Shade & Shutter Systems, Inc. reserves the right to use all information at its disposal and to share this information with ISPs and other third parties as necessary to investigate any incident of misuse or abuse of this website, server, or information systems.

How does ShadeandShutter.com maintain the information it collects?

When you submit information through our Contact form, your submission is sent to us via email. You should not submit any information through this interface that you would not normally provide in an email.

 

Providing personal information is never a prerequisite for accessing any of the content or resources on this website. Specifically, refusal to provide personal information via a web interface will never result in a user being denied access to any on-line content or resource they would be able to access were the information submitted.

Shade & Shutter Systems, Inc. encourages parents to take an active role in their children’s use of the Internet, and to inform them of the potential dangers of providing information about themselves over the Internet.

Policy Modifications and Deviations

We may modify this privacy policy and will post those changes here. If the privacy policy changes in the future, we will not use any personal information you have submitted to us under the current Privacy Policy in a manner that is materially inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, without your prior consent.
