Thank you for visiting the Northern Precision Products (NPP) website. NPP makes, sells and provides machined components and other products identified on our website. In support of these activities, NPP operates a website that may occasionally collect business or personal information from our customers and users of this site. This Privacy Statement applies to all NPP-owned websites and domains ("NPP website"), unless posted otherwise on NPP websites.
1. Links to non-NPP websites
The NPP website may provide links to other websites for your convenience and information. If you access those links, you will leave the NPP website. NPP does not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from NPP's practices. We do not endorse or make any representations regarding third-party websites. Any personal data you choose to provide or that is collected by these third parties is not covered by the NPP Privacy Statement. Please be aware that when you follow a link to another site, you are then subject to the privacy policies of the new site. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any company before submitting your information.
2. Information collected from e-mail, forms and through registration
Information you submit may be viewed by various people within NPP who are actively involved with the business. If you use any of our services, you may submit personally identifiable information, such as name, title, name/size of company, or address. We may use this information to contact you by e-mail, facsimile, or phone for providing a response or for verif- ication purposes before allowing access to the requested information or service.
If you e-mail us through the "Contact Us" link on the NPP site, we may ask you for information such as your name and e-mail address so we can respond to your questions and comments. You may choose to provide additional information as well.
Our websites may provide forms allowing visitors to submit queries, requests for quotes, feedback, or other information. Some of these forms may request personally identifiable information (e.g., name, address, e-mail address) for specific purposes, such as when the submitter is requesting a quote. All information submitted via forms by visitors is voluntary.
We may store the information we collect (such as queries and responses) indefinitely to help us better understand and meet the needs of our visitors. We may share non-personally identifiable information with others, including the public, in aggregated form (for instance, in a list of our most common queries), in partial or edited form (such as in a report summarizing responses), or verbatim (for example, in a quote).
3. Collection of personal information
NPP may collect and use personal information to understand your needs and interests and to serve you better.
On some NPP websites, we ask you to provide personal information. For example, when you request quotes or use "Contact Us", we may ask you to provide personal information to complete these transactions. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include name, address, ZIP code, telephone number, e-mail address, product and service preferences, contact preferences, and other information.
In addition to the information you provide, NPP may also collect information during your visit to an NPP website through our Automatic Data Collection Tools, which may include Web beacons, cookies, embedded Web links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website such as your browser type and language, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived at an NPP website. They may also collect information about your Internet Protocol (IP) address, clickstream behavior (i.e. the pages you view, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with NPP websites) and product information. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers use IP addresses to communicate on the Internet, allowing users to browse and shop.
NPP may also collect information from commercially available sources that it deems credible. Such information may include your name, address, e-mail address and demographic data. The information NPP collects from its commercial sources may be used along with the information NPP collects when you visit NPP’s websites. For example, NPP may compare the geographic information acquired from commercial sources with the IP address collected by its Automatic Data Collection Tools to derive your general geographic area.
4. How we use your information
The information NPP collects to understand your needs and interests helps NPP deliver a consistent and personalized service and experience. For example, NPP may use your information to:
- assist you in completing a transaction or order;
- communicate with you about products and services;
- provide service and support;
- keep you informed on services and benefits;
- provide personalized offers;
- select content to be communicated to you; and
- contact you for research regarding NPP products or services.
5. Information provided by you
NPP does not want you to, and you should not, send any confidential or proprietary information to NPP via the website. Unless covered by a specific confidentiality agreement, you agree that any information or materials that you or individuals acting on your behalf provide to NPP will not be considered confidential or proprietary. By providing any such information or materials to NPP, you grant to NPP an unrestricted, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, display, publicly perform, transmit and distribute such information and materials, and you further agree that NPP is free to use any ideas, concepts or know-how that you or individuals acting on your behalf provide to NPP. You further recognize that NPP does not want you to, and you warrant that you shall not, provide any information or materials to NPP that is defamatory, threatening, obscene, harassing, or otherwise unlawful, or that incorporates the proprietary material of another.
6. How we share your information
NPP will not sell, rent or lease your personal information to others. NPP may disclose information about you (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to law enforcement authorities or other government officials, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an invest- igation of suspected or actual illegal activity.
We reserve the right to transfer any information we have about you in the event that we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use personal information that you have provided through this website in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Statement.
7. Children's privacy
NPP does not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 and does not target its websites to children under 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently received personal information from a visitor under the age of 13 on the site, we will delete the information from our records. We encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests.
8. Your choices and selecting your privacy preferences
NPP gives you the choice of receiving a variety of information that complements our products and services. On our forms, you can provide your choice regarding NPP communications by postal mail, facsimile, e-mail or telephone. Without a limiting choice, we may use any means to contact you.
