We may collect, use, and disclose your personal information for any of the following purposes:
Data Security, Integrity, & Retention
We are committed to maintaining the security, integrity, and confidentiality of your information. We have implemented technical, administrative, and physical security measures that are designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, and modification. Please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy, including providing you the products and services you have requested, maintaining our business relationship with you, complying with applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting obligations, resolving disputes, enforcing our agreements, and protecting our legal rights. When personal information is no longer needed for these purposes, we will delete or anonymize it unless applicable law requires or permits a longer retention period.
Social Media Plug-ins
Our website may feature plug-ins for easy sharing and following our social media pages including LinkedIn, X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and other social media services. Being on our website does not automatically result in sharing data on these social media networks through the plug-in features or links for sharing content. These plug-ins remain inactive (idle) until clicked upon. Once clicked upon, you will be taken to the social media site, with their own privacy statements. Your use of these third-party platforms is governed by their respective privacy notices and terms of service. We encourage you to review those policies before interacting with any social media features.
Third-Party Links & Use of Your Information
Our website may contain links to other websites that we do not operate. This Privacy Policy does not address the privacy policy and other practice of any third parties, including any third party operating any website or services that may be accessible via a link of this website. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party websites, applications, or services, even if they are accessible through links on our website. Your interactions with those third parties are governed by their own terms and privacy notices. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party site or services. We encourage you to review the applicable privacy policies before providing any personal information to or using any third-party website or service.
The inclusion of a link to a third-party website or service does not imply our endorsement of, or affiliation with, that third party or its products or services.
Do We Sell Your Information?
We do NOT and will not sell or share your personal information in exchange for monetary consideration. However, we may sell or share some of your information to third parties for other valuable consideration, as noted in the table above.
We may sell or share your personal information for the following business or commercial purposes:
- Marketing and advertising
- Personalization and user experience
- Analytics and performance measurement
- Business operations and service improvement
Other than these exceptions, we do not and will not disclose your personal information to any third party in exchange for monetary or other valuable consideration or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Notice of Right to Opt-Out of the Selling & Sharing of Your Information
Depending on your state of residence, you may have the right to tell us NOT to sell or share your personal information. You have the full and free right to opt-out of our disclosure of your personal information to any third parties where the disclosure constitutes “selling” or “sharing” as defines by specific state laws. You may exercise your right to opt-out without fear of discrimination for doing so. To opt-out of our selling and sharing of your information, meaning we will not disclose your information to third parties for any monetary or other valuable consideration, you can do any of the following:
- Visit the online opt-out submission form.
- Visit our website at: www.thermalstructures.com. Click on “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” to be taken to an online submission form.
- You can use a Global Privacy Controls (GPC) signal. HEICO will process opt-out preferences from GPC signals, which are in formats commonly used and recognized by businesses, such as an HTTP field header, as requests to opt-out of sale or sharing. The GPC signal opt-out will only apply to the browser you are using on your device; it will not apply to other browsers and/or devices to which GPCs are not activated or to offline sales.
- If you are unable to submit an opt-out through any of the above methods, please email us at privacy(at)thermalstructures(dot)com or write to us at THERMAL STRUCTURES Corporation, 2362 Railroad Street, Corona CA, 92878, USA, Attn: Privacy Request.
You can have an authorized agent submit a request on your behalf. To submit an opt-out through use of an authorized agent, you must provide that agent with written permission signed by you to submit an opt-out on your behalf, except when using an opt-out preference signal. The authorized agent may contact us at the email or mailing address set forth in this Policy to make the opt-out request and for directions for submitting the proof of authorization and the authorized agent’s proof of identification to the Company. We maintain the right to deny any request from an authorized agent that does not submit sufficient proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf.
A request to opt-out need not be a verifiable consumer request. However, we may deny a request to opt-out if we have a good faith, reasonable, and documented belief that a request to opt-out is fraudulent. If we deny your request to opt-out, we shall inform you of our decision not to comply and provide an explanation as to why we believe the request is fraudulent.
Opt-out Preference Signals
Opt-out preference signals provide consumers with a simple and easy-to-use method by which to exercise the right to opt-out of the selling and sharing of their information. Global Privacy Controls (GPC) or Universal Opt-Out Mechanism (UOOM) are user-enabled opt-out preference signals which can communicate a user’s “Do Not Sell or Share” request on behalf of the person or device. We will process opt-out preferences from GPC and UOOM signals which are in formats commonly used and recognized by businesses, such as an HTTP field header. We will treat a consumer’s use of GPCs or UOOMs as a valid request to opt-out of the selling and sharing of information for that browser. We currently do not connect browser use to particular consumers and, as such, you will need to use GPCs or UOOMs on all browsers in which you access our website and use our opt-out form to opt-out of offline sales.
Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference that users can set if they do not want web services to collect information about their online activity. We do not respond to DNT signals or other mechanisms (with the exception of GPCs and UOOMs) that provide a choice regarding the collection of personal information about activities over time and across different websites or online services. We encourage users who have DNTs to use GPCs or UOOMs.
