Suncoast Safety Privacy Policy

PRIVACY POLICY SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL provides this Privacy Statement to inform you of our privacy policy and practices and of the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. We've structured our web sites so that, in general, you can visit SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL on the web without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. This privacy statement applies to all SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL-owned web sites and domains. Notice SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL uses personal information to better understand your needs and interests and provide you with better service. Once you choose to provide us with personal information, you can be assured that it will only be used to support your customer relationship with SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL. We take seriously the trust you place in us. SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL will not sell, rent or lease your personally identifiable information to others. This privacy statement covers personally identifiable information, anonymous data collection and aggregate reporting. Personally identifiable information is any information that is associated with your name or personal identity. Anonymous (non-personal) information is data about usage and service operation, reported in aggregate, which is not associated to a specific personal identity. Aggregate information is data collected and summarized for a broad category of customers or SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL services.

What we collect on some SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL Websites: You can order products or services, make information requests, subscribe to marketing or support materials, or register yourself or your SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL products. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include name, address, phone, email address, user IDs and passwords, billing information, transaction, credit card information and contact preferences. To personalize our Websites, services or communications and improve our products and services, we may also ask you to provide us with information regarding your personal or professional interests, demographics, and experiences with our products or services. Providing this additional information is optional. Anonymous (non-personal) data we collect may include the pages visited on safety.org, unique URLs visited within safety.org, browser type and IP address. Most anonymous data is collected via cookies or other analysis technologies.

Who we share it with: SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL will not sell, rent, or lease your personally identifiable information to others. SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL will not share your personal information with a business partner or any unrelated third party company unless you give your permission. Your permission will be requested when you submit your information. Choice: You can subscribe to receive some product and service-specific information and SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL marketing communications. SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL-wide communications may include new product information, special offers or possibly an invitation to participate in market research. We give you a choice regarding SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL-wide communications by postal mail, email and telephone. SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL will not sell, rent or lease your personally identifiable information to unrelated third party companies. Some SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL services are linked with those from other unrelated third party companies, some which offer you the option to share personal data you give with both SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL and the third party. We will not share your personal information with those third party companies unless you make that choice. Local country laws and policies are applied where they differ from those in the U.S. Links provided on safety.org to third party Websites are provided as a convenience and SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL does not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from ours. SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL does not endorse or make any representations about them. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any company before submitting your personal information. The personal data you choose to give to unrelated third parties is covered by their privacy policies, not the SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL Privacy Policy. Some third-party companies may choose to share their personal data with SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL; that sharing is governed by that third-party company's privacy policy.

Onward Transfer of personal data given to SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL may be transferred across state and country borders for the purposes of data consolidation, storage and simplified customer information management. The practices which govern this data movement are described in our commitments in the Choice and Security sections of this privacy statement.

Access & Accuracy: SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL strives to keep your personally identifiable information accurate. We have put in place managerial data standards, review processes and technological tools to maintain customer data accuracy. We will provide you with access to view and change your information, including making every effort to provide you with online access. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as a password and user ID, before granting access to your data. Certain areas of SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL's Websites may limit access to specific individuals through the use of passwords and other personal identifiers. The most effective way to view and change your personal information is to return to the web page where you originally submitted your data and follow the instructions on that web page or send us a message as described in "Contact us" below. Data access is also available upon request.

To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of the information, SUNCOAST SAFETY COUNCIL has in place appropriate physical, managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect. We use SSL encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information. Credit card numbers are only used for processing payment and are not used for other purposes. Our efforts to protect credit card fraud help protect your financial data security.
