Williams Advanced Materials is committed to protecting your privacy online and to the responsible management of consumer information. Williams Advanced Materials abides by all rules, both ethical and legal, with respect to the use of consumer information.
Our privacy policy is intended to notify you of our online privacy practices and of the type of information that may be collected and stored; how the information is used; with whom the information may be shared; what choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of the information; what kind of security procedures are in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of information under Williams Advanced Materials' control; and who to contact with questions or concerns.
This privacy policy applies only to this website and not to other websites to which we may link. Williams Advanced Materials may post such links as a way of helping you locate related information and services easily. However, when linking to another website, you must review that website's own privacy policy as other websites may not treat information collected online in the same manner as Williams Advanced Materials.
What information does Williams Advanced Materials collect?
Our web server automatically recognizes each visitor's domain name and we collect the domain names of visitors to our website. A domain name does not provide us with personally identifiable information (such as name, address, email address, telephone number and product preferences). Our website is not set up to track, collect, or distribute personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily input this information, such as during a registration or ordering process, or when you submit questions or comments, request information or participate in online surveys, promotions or activities. Any information you input will be used by us only as set forth in this policy. We may use electronic records to compile statistics about how our visitors collectively interact with our website. These statistics contain no personally identifiable information and are only used by Williams Advanced Materials staff. Should you voluntarily provide us with personally identifiable information, you consent to our use of it in accordance with this policy. Of course, those who wish to communicate with Williams Advanced Materials but do not wish to provide personally identifiable information online may contact us through the address or phone or fax numbers provided on our website.
Does Williams Advanced Materials use cookies?
Cookies are bits of electronic information that a website may transfer to a visitor's hard drive to identify specific information about the visitor's visits to the website. The use of cookies is standard on the internet and many websites use them. Cookies allow Williams Advanced Materials to track the number of visitors to the website, to determine whether visitors have visited the site before, and to determine patterns or trends of visitors' website usage. This allows Williams Advanced Materials to update its website and make it more useful to our customers and website visitors.
How does Williams Advanced Materials use the information it collects?
The personally identifiable information we collect is used by us for internal purposes such as providing support and responding to questions from customers and website visitors, improving our products, learning about customers' needs, contacting consumers for research, informational and marketing purposes, and enabling online product ordering.
Unless otherwise required by law or if pertinent to a judicial or governmental investigation, information is not shared with other organizations or persons, other than organizations or persons assisting us in collecting, assembling or processing this information. Williams Advanced Materials does not sell your personally identifiable information to other companies for their independent marketing purposes and Williams Advanced Materials maintains physical and electronic safeguards to prevent unauthorized access to your personally identifiable information, and to protect you against the criminal misuse of that information. However, data in the aggregate may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising or other purposes. Williams Advanced Materials may also use email addresses and other personally identifiable information to contact visitors who have communicated with us. While Williams Advanced Materials strives to protect your personally identifiable information, you should also take steps to protect such information. For example, we urge you to change your passwords often and make sure that you are using a secure internet browser.
Information submitted or provided to Williams Advanced Materials by a website user or any person or entity regarding Williams Advanced Materials or its products, including but not limited to ideas for new products or modifications to existing products, shall be deemed to be non-confidential and Williams Advanced Materials shall be free to reproduce, use, disclose, and distribute such information to others in any manner, without limitation or attribution.
By using our web site, you consent to the collection and use of the foregoing information by Williams Advanced Materials. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
How does Williams Advanced Materials address children's privacy?
Williams Advanced Materials realizes that children may visit this website, and Williams Advanced Materials encourages children to consult with their parents before submitting any information to any website, including ours. However, Williams Advanced Materials believes that it is ultimately the parents' responsibility to supervise their children's online activities and consider using parental control tools available from online services and software manufacturers that help provide a kid-friendly online environment. These tools can also prevent children from disclosing their names, addresses, and other personally identifiable information online without parental permission.
Williams Advanced Materials does not knowingly permit children under the age of 18 to buy goods or services on our website, without verifiable parental consent. Williams Advanced Materials does not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information about children under 18, except with their parent's express consent.
