General

The Markin Tubing Company respects the privacy of every individual who visits our website. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") outlines the information the Company may collect from visitors to our website hosted in the United States and how we may use and disclose that information. We encourage you to read this Policy before using our website. Your use of our Company website signifies that you agree with all terms of this Policy, so please do not use our website if you disagree with any part of this Policy.

What personal information do we collect and why do we collect it?

The Company may collect personal information about you (such as your name, postal address, telephone number and email address) that you provide voluntarily. You ordinarily are not required to register or provide personal information in order to access our website, although certain sections of our websites may require registration. In addition, if you choose to contact us to ask a question we will collect your personal information so that we can respond to your question.

The Company may collect personal information online for all legal purposes, which include, but are not limited to:

Promotions. The Company may offer promotional activities that may require online registration. Persons wishing to participate in those activities are asked to provide certain personal information. Some of the information requested for this purpose is optional, but other information, such as email address, is mandatory because it will be needed to notify and identify individuals.

"Contact Us" and Comment Features. The Company encourages visitors to its website to contact us with questions and comments. Email addresses and other information of persons using these features may be collected in order to facilitate our responses to those inquiries.

Special Promotions and Product Information. The Company also may offer you the opportunity to provide you with email updates and announcements concerning our products and special promotions. Personal information you have provided to the Company may be used to facilitate those communications.

When do we disclose the personal information we collect?

Except as provided herein, the Company will not sell or rent personal information about you to unaffiliated third parties.

We may disclose personal information you have provided through our websites to persons or companies that we retain to carry out promotions and other activities for which you have registered or in which you have otherwise asked to participate. We also will disclose personal information if required by law, including compliance with warrants, subpoenas or other legal process.

The Company requires persons and companies to which it discloses personal information to restrict their use of such information to the purposes for which it has been provided by the Company and not to disclose that information to others. The Company cannot be responsible, however, for any damages caused by the failure of unaffiliated third parties to honor their privacy obligations to the Company. Similarly, the Company is not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of other websites that are linked to our websites.

In addition to these limited disclosures of personal information, the Company may provide its affiliates or unaffiliated third parties with aggregate information about visitors to our sites. For example, we might disclose the median ages of visitors to our websites, or the numbers of visitors to our websites that come from different geographic areas. Such aggregate information will not include information of any individual visitors to our websites. The Company may provide personal and other information to a purchaser or successor entity in connection with the sale of the Company, a subsidiary or line of business associated with the Company, or substantially all of the assets of the Company or one of its subsidiaries, affiliates or lines of business.

Offline v. Online Practices

This Policy applies solely to the Company's information-gathering and dissemination practices in connection with its website, and does not apply to any of our practices conducted offline.
