Quality Cabinets®, a Masco Company, (“We” or
“Us”) is committed to respecting the privacy rights of visitors of the Quality
Cabinets® website (the “Site”). While visiting the Site, We may ask You (“You”
or “Your”) to provide information that personally identifies You (“Personal
Information”) for purposes of interacting with the Site.
We will take measures to ensure that the
Personal Information You submit to Us remains private, and is used only for the
purposes as set forth herein. To further the protection of Your Personal
Information, Quality Cabinets® has adopted a set of information management
guidelines (outlined below) to describe the Personal Information We collect
about You, why We collect it, how We use it and when We share it with third
parties.
This Privacy Policy has been developed with
the recognition that Internet technologies are rapidly evolving, and that
underlying business models are still not established. Accordingly, this Privacy
Policy is subject to change. Any such changes will be posted on this page.
Please see the Effective Date stated at the conclusion of this Policy.
What
kind of information does Quality Cabinets® collect from visitors?
We only collect Personal Information that You
submit to Us, including but not limited to personal data (i.e., Your name,
mailing address and email address), for example when You request further
information. We also collect information that identifies you as a visitor of Quality
Cabinets®. Additionally, We may also collect aggregate information regarding
users of the Site.
Use of Cookies by Quality Cabinets®
There is a technology called “cookies” which
can be used to provide You with tailored information from a website. A cookie
is an element of data that a website can send to Your browser, which may then
be stored on Your computer system. This element of data is a piece of text, not
a program. The Site can only access the information from a cookie sent by the
Site. We cannot access other cookies sent by other websites or the information
contained therein. Additionally, We cannot learn Your email address or any
other information about You through the use of a cookie. The only way We would
learn such information is if You specifically submit that information to Us.
Quality Cabinets® uses cookies to tell us the
identities of visitors to our website so that we can deliver visitors a more
personalized experience. This cookie is set when you register. We collect this
information so when you come back to visit us again, we can tailor information
to suit your individual preferences. The goal is to save you time and provide
you with a more meaningful visit.
Quality Cabinets® collects and uses your IP
addresses linked with your email address (if You choose to provide Us with it)
to track the total number of unique users, for system administration and to
diagnose problems.
Users can choose to disable cookies by
modifying their browser preferences to accept all cookies, be notified when
cookies are set or to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject all cookies,
you will be unable to use those services that require registration to
participate. You will still be able to use most of the features on the Quality
Cabinets® website if you do not accept cookies.

Use of Personal Information (Subject to the
internal policy of Quality Cabinets®)
Occasionally, We may make our mailing list
available to independent companies that offer products and services that We
think may be of interest to You. Additionally, We may share aggregate,
non-personally identifiable information with our business partners and other
affiliated third parties (i.e., the number of users who have visited the Site
on a specific day, etc.). Quality Cabinets® may also match aggregated user
information with third-party data and disclose aggregated user statistics to
describe our services to potential advertisers, partners and other third
parties, and for other lawful purposes.
It should be noted, however, that this Privacy
Policy only addresses the use and dissemination of information that We collect
from You. To the extent that You disclose any information to other parties,
through other websites on the Internet linked to the Site, different policies
may apply. Since Quality Cabinets® does not control the privacy policies of
third parties, You are subject to the privacy customs and policies, if any, of
that third party, and Quality Cabinets® shall not be responsible for the use or
dissemination of Your Personal Information by that third party. Therefore, We
encourage You to ask questions before You disclose Your Personal Information to
others.
Children’s
Privacy
Quality Cabinets® does
not specifically collect information about children, but is concerned about the
safety of children and their use of the Internet. Therefore, in accordance with
the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, We will never knowingly
request or solicit personally identifiable information from anyone under the
age of 13 without prior verifiable parental consent. In the event that We
receive actual knowledge that We have collected such personal information
without the requisite and verifiable parental consent, We will delete that
information from our database as quickly as is practical.
Third-Party
Hosting
Quality Cabinets® contracts with one or more
third parties to maintain and host the Site. Therefore, any information You
submit, including Personal Information, shall be placed and stored on a
computer server maintained by this third party. Your use of the Site and any
provision of Personal Information You submit to the Site constitutes Your
acknowledgement that such information or content could pass through and may be
stored in servers outside the control of Quality Cabinets®. You agree that
Quality Cabinets® has no liability or responsibility for any such pass-through
or storage of same.
Opting
Out
When Quality Cabinets® first collects
information about You, We will offer You the opportunity to “opt out” of having
Your Personal Information shared with parties outside of Quality Cabinets®,
unless otherwise required by law, court order, or other government or law
enforcement authority.
In compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003,
should You decide you no longer wish for Quality Cabinets® to send You email or
postal mail about our products and services, You also can opt out at the time
of registration or information collection. If, at a later date, You choose to
have Your name removed from our database, You can do so by clicking on the
“unsubscribe” link that will be included in all future email communication You
receive from Us. It is our policy that all “unsubscribe” requests be processed
within 10 working days from their submission. We will also confirm with You via
email your intention to either opt-in or opt-out of future email
communications.
When we work with third-party vendors
to assist in an aspect of email management, delivery or acquisition, we will
assure that their policies also adhere to CAN-SPAM standards and that opt-out
requests are processed by all affected parties within the 10 working days
required.
Effective
Date and Changes
This Privacy Policy is effective as of June
2004. Quality Cabinets® reserves the right to modify the terms of this policy at
any time and in our sole discretion, by posting a change notice to this page.
Your continued use of the Site following our posting of a change notice will
constitute binding acceptance of those changes.
