PRIVACY
POLICY
Superior
Sheds is committed to protecting any personal information that you may
provide to us. In particular, we believe it is important for you to know
how we treat information about you that we may receive from this Web site.
Information
Collected
In general, you can visit this Web site without telling us who you are
or revealing any information about yourself. Our web servers collect the
domain names, not the e-mail addresses, of visitors. Our web servers also
seek (as many Web sites do) to place a "cookie" (a small data
file) on your computer's hard drive which allows the server to determine
the computer when it visits again, in order to track statistical information
about navigation to and throughout certain areas of our site, and to Superior
Sheds promotions on other sites. This cookie is not used to obtain your
name or any personal data, and the information that is tracked is used
only for internal purposes, such as to improve site navigation and to
measure the effectiveness of our promotional placements, and is not shared
with anyone other than Superior Sheds affiliates and contractors who assist
Superior Sheds in these efforts and are bound to confidentiality. However,
if you prefer not to accept cookies, you can set your browser to reject
them or to alert you before one is placed.
In addition, there are portions of this Web site where we may need to
collect personal information from you for a specific purpose, such as
to provide you with certain information you request. The information collected
from you may include your name, address, telephone, fax number, or e-mail
address. For electronic access to annual reports and proxy statements,
we collect your tax identification number to verify your shareholder status.
For our supplier diversity site, we necessarily collect information about
gender and ethnicity, such as whether your business is female-owned.
This Web site is not
intended for persons under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly solicit
or collect personal information from or about children, and we do not
knowingly market our products or services to children.
Use
of Collected Information
Domain name information that we collect is not used to personally identify
you and instead is aggregated to measure the number of visits, average
time spent on the site, pages viewed, etc. We use this information to
measure the use of our site and to improve the content of our site.
When other information is collected from you, such as your name and e-mail
address, we generally let you know at the time of collection how we will
use the personal information. Usually, we use the personal information
you provide only to respond to your inquiry or to process your request
(such as to receive electronic annual reports or to be added to our supplier
diversity database). This information may be shared with other Superior
Sheds businesses, but only if necessary to fulfill your request or for
related purposes.
We may share the personal
information you provide with other companies we have hired to provide
services for us. These companies - our vendors - are contractually bound
to use personal information we share with them only to perform the services
we have hired them to provide. We do not share, sell, or lease personal
information about you to any third-parties for their marketing use. We
will release information about you if you direct us to do so, if we are
required by law to do so, or in other legally limited circumstances (for
example, to protect your account from fraud).
If you register with one of Superior Sheds’ business units online,
they may use this information to provide you with custom information about
Superior Sheds’ offerings in support of your business needs. They
may also seek to place a "cookie" (small data file) as discussed
above in order to provide you with tailored information. You should review
the privacy policy associated with that Superior Sheds business' Web site
for further information about that Superior Sheds business' privacy practices.
Links
to Other Sites
Superior Sheds’ Web site may contain links to other sites such as
Superior Sheds distributors and sales affiliates. While we try to link
only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy, we
are not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices employed
by other sites.
Security
of Collected Information
We maintain strict physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards
to protect your personal information from unauthorized or inappropriate
access. We restrict access to information about you to those Superior
Sheds workers who need to know the information to respond to your inquiry
or request. Workers who misuse personal information are subject to disciplinary
action.

policy, we will provide notice to you on this Web site of any major changes
for at least 30 days following the change.
