PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: 9/1/23 This Privacy Policy describes how SAFE-DECON collects, uses, and discloses information associated with an identified or identifiable individual (referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Personal Data”) and what choices you have around this activity.  When we refer to “SAFE-DECON”, we mean SAFE-DECON, INC. 2000 Chaney Hwy, Suite 103, Titusville FL 32780. PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personal Information We Collect 

“Personal Information” generally means any information that can reasonably identify you as an individual, and any other information we associate with it. We collect categories of information, from different sources.
  1. Profile information and other content you voluntarily provide us, which may include:
  • User name and password
  • Contact information when you register on our website, request a quote, or do business with us, such as your name, street address, demographic information (such as your gender), date of birth, phone number, and/or email address. You may also provide us information about other people, such as when you direct us to send an item on your behalf. If you submit any Personal Information relating to other people in connection with the website, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
  • Similar professional contact information if you interact with us in the scope of your employment, if you place a commercial order. This may include your employer, job title, work address, phone and/or email, and similar such information.
  • Any content or contributions you post in a public space on the website. This includes comments, videos and photos that you might submit. If you contact us through a social media site, we may collect your social media identifier.
  • Any information you provide in communications with us, such as via phone, e-mail, support center, or social media.
  • Transaction history, for instance if you make a purchase from us.
  • Payment information, such as when you make a purchase with us and we need your billing information to process the transaction.
  1. Information that is passively collected when you use the website, such as by our web servers and by third party analytics tools we use:
  • Our system logs may record certain information about visitors to our website, including the web request, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, device and mobile ad identifiers, browser information, interaction with the website, pages viewed, and other such information; we may collect similar information from emails you receive from us that can help us track which emails are opened and which links are clicked by recipients.
  • We use certain cookies, pixel tags and other technologies to help us understand how you use the website and enable us to personalize your experience. To learn more about cookies, please visit  http://www.allaboutcookies.org/. To learn more about SAFE-DECON’s use of cookies, please see our cookie policy. 
  • We may detect the physical location of your device by, for example, using GPS information collected by location information shared by your web browser. We collect this information for purposes of enhancing or facilitating our services, such as enabling certain functionalities of the website that can provide you with information about relevant product information near you. We may use your device’s physical location to better understand how our website and other services and functionality are being used and to provide you with relevant and personalized location-based services and content, including advertising. Should you wish to opt out of the collection of this information, please adjust the settings of your device so that information about your physical location is not sent to us or third parties by (a) disabling location services within the device settings; or (b) denying certain websites or mobile applications permission to access location information by changing the relevant preferences and permissions in your mobile device or browser settings. Please note that your location may be derived from your WiFi, Bluetooth, and other device settings. Please consult your device settings for further information.
  1. We may receive information from third parties such as advertising and marketing partners, public databases, and social media platforms, to supplement the information we receive from our consumers. If we do so, this policy governs how we can use that information.
  2. In addition to collecting Personal Information, we may collect information that does not identify you and is not associated with your Personal Information. We may also de-identify information so it no longer identifies you. We can aggregate and use such information to engage in marketing and other activities in a manner that protects our consumers since it does not use their Personal Information and is outside the scope of this Privacy Policy.
