Your privacy is of great importance to Carrier
Industries ("CARRIER").
As a user of this web site at: www.carrierindustries.com (the "Site"),
you are valued by CARRIER and we will take appropriate measures to
protect the information provided by and collected from you on the
Site in connection with the functions, facilities and services
offered on the Site.
What Information Does CARRIER Collect?
We gather information so that we can improve and
personalize your experience with CARRIER. Information that we collect
falls in to the categories listed below.
-
Information
that Users Give Us: We
receive and store the information that you enter at the Site or
give to us in any other way. When you choose to provide
information, we will use it for purposes that include:
fulfilling your orders, responding to your inquiries or
requests, customizing our Site for you, improving our Site and
communicating with you.
Automatic
Information: Whenever you
interact with CARRIER, we receive and store certain types of
information. For example, we use "cookies" to obtain
information when your web browser accesses this Site. A cookie is an
alphanumeric identifier, which we transfer to your computer via your
Web browser and store on your computer's hard drive. The cookie file
allows us to recognize your computer when you visit the Site. On
most web browsers you will find a "help" section on the

because they will enable you to take advantage of some of the
Site's features.
Does CARRIER Share the Information It Receives?
We are not in the business of selling our user's
information. There are, however, certain limited circumstances in
which we may share such information with certain third parties, as
set forth below.
-
Agents & Strategic
Transportation Partners: CARRIER, like many
companies, hires other companies to perform certain functions.
Examples include processing payments and removing duplicate
information from our customer lists. When we employ another
company to perform a function of this nature, we only provide
them with the information they need to complete the task and
they are not allowed to use that information for any other
purpose. CARRIER
may
also share with its Strategic Partners the names of those users
downloading our rating modules.
-
Promotional
Notices: On very
rare occasions we may contact our users about a product or
service provided by another business. If we contact you in this
way, it will only be to provide you with information about a
business that we think you will like. If we do this, the only
communication you receive will be from us and we will not give
business information about you, such as your name, postal or
email address.
-
Business
Transfers: As we
develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses, stores or
assets. In transactions such as these, user information is
generally one of the transferred business assets. Moreover, in
the unlikely event that CARRIER or one of its business lines are
acquired, user information may be one of the transferred assets.
-
Protection
of CARRIER and Others: We may
release account and other personal information when we believe
that such release is appropriate to comply with law; protect the
rights of, property or safety of our users, CARRIER or others; or
enforce our Terms of Use and other agreements. In addition, we
may exchange information with other organizations for fraud
protection and credit risk reduction.

the information of our users.
