BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

At PBI Performance Products, Inc., (“PBI”) we value your privacy and want to make sure you understand how we handle your personal data and give you control over the collection and use of that data. Therefore, the security of such personal information (“personal data”) provided by visitors to our website (the “Site”) is a priority for us.

SCOPE

PBI  complies with the provisions of all applicable data protection laws, which regulate the collection, processing and use of personal data. This policy, which applies to the PBI website and its business, provides information about how we handle personal data.

SECURITY

PBI takes reasonable technical and organizational precautions to keep all information obtained from our online visitors secure against unauthorized access and use, and we periodically review our security measures.

This Site may contain “links” to other websites of affiliated companies and/or third parties. Although we attempt to only link to websites that share our high standards and respect for privacy, we do not monitor or control the information collected when you elect to access a third-party link. The treatment of personal data by the operators of third-party websites may be different from ours. Accordingly, we are not responsible for the content or the data privacy practices employed by other websites.

YOUR RIGHTS AS DATA SUBJECT

You have certain rights under the data protection laws. If you wish for PBI to delete your information collected, please contact us [email protected].

RETENTION PERIOD

PBI will delete all personal data, if the processing purpose no longer persists and no statutory periods for safekeeping oppose. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use this Site. We reserve the right to amend this policy at any time. Please check this page periodically for changes.
