Privacy Policy
The Tapco Group Privacy Policy
BY PROVIDING PERSONAL INFORMATION TO US ON THIS WEB SITE, YOU
CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF THAT INFORMATION
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
The Tapco Group and all of its affiliates ("Tapco," "us," or "we")
respects the privacy concerns of visitors to the Tapco Web
site. This Privacy Policy applies only to the information we
collect on this Web site.
Information We Collect Automatically
If you merely browse through the Tapco Web site or download
information, our servers will automatically collect certain
information from you. This information includes the: (a) name
of the domain and host from which you access the Internet; (b)
Internet protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using; (c)
browser software you use and your operating system; (d) date and
time you access the Web site; and (e) Internet address of the Web
site from which you linked directly to this Web site.
We will use information that we automatically collect to manage
and improve our Web site to make it as useful as possible for
visitors like you. None of the information we automatically
collect is tied to personal information you may provide to us (see
below).
Information You Choose to Provide to Us
Tapco gathers and retains personal information about you only when
voluntarily submitted by you. For example, if you choose to
complete and submit one of the forms located on our "Request
Literature" page or "Contact Us" page, we will retain the data you
submit to respond to your inquiry and consider your request.
After we have responded to your inquiry and/or considered your
request, the information you submitted will be retained for our
records. If we change the manner we use or retain personal
information you provide to us, we will update this Privacy Policy,
without any notification to you.
Personal Information as an Asset of Tapco
The personal information you provide to us is an asset of
Tapco. If Tapco or a substantial part of our business is sold
or otherwise transferred to a third party, your personal
information may be transferred as well. We will NOT notify
you of any transfer of your personal information in connection with
such a transaction.
Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties
Tapco reserves the right to disclose the personal information you
provide to us WITHOUT your consent including but not limited to:
(a) as required by law; (b) to our independent contractors who host
and maintain our Web site and e-mail services; (c) to our
franchisees, if applicable, or distributors, but only to respond to
requests by you for information; and (d) to service providers or
suppliers if the disclosure will enable that party to perform
business, professional or technical support for us.
Cookies
A "cookie" is a small text file that a Web site can place on your
computer's hard drive for record keeping or other administrative
purposes. We currently do not use cookies on this Web
site.
Security
We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to
protect your personal information. You should be aware,
however, that no transmission over the Internet, and no electronic
data storage method, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot
guarantee the absolute security of the personal information you
provide to us either during its transmission or its storage on
Tapco's systems.
Links to Other Web sites
Tapco does not endorse and is not responsible for the information
practices or privacy policies of Web sites operated by others that
may be linked to our Web site. If you decide to access a
third party's Web site that may be linked to this Web site, you
should consult that Web site's privacy policy.
Franchisees' and Distributors' Web sites
We may use various franchisees and distributors to conduct our
business in certain locations. Some of these franchisees and
distributors operate their own Web sites. We do not require
franchisees or distributors to adhere to the terms of this Privacy
Policy, so you should review the privacy policy of any franchises
or distributor's Web site you may visit.
Children
It is not our intention to collect personal information from
anyone under 18 years of age. If you are under 18 years of
age, you may use this Web site only with the involvement and
supervision of an adult.
