1. Types of Information Collected.

Traffic Data Collected.
The Company automatically tracks and collects the following information
when the User visits the Company’s websites (“Web Sites”), including the User’s: (i) IP address; (ii) domain
server; (iii) type of computer; (iv) type of web browser; (v) pages visited and duration; and (vi) search terms
used to access the Web Sites (collectively “Traffic Data”). Traffic Data is anonymous information that does
not personally identify the User but is helpful in the Company’s efforts to improve the User’s experience
on the Web Site.
Our website may require you to accept session “cookies” to provide customer experience and efficiencies
such as enabling you to login, personalizing your experience, and/or automatically filling in standard
information on return visits. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that are stored locally on your device
by your browser and passed back to the server whenever a request for a new page on the site is made. The
session cookie is never saved or written to disk. It is discarded when the browser exits, when you log out
of the website, or when you have not visited a page on the website for a given period of time, for example
60 minutes.
Most web browsers automatically accept session cookies, but most browsers also allow you to configure
your web browser to refuse them or to notify you before a cookie is set. You also can manually view (and
delete) any cookies stored on your computer. If you do not allow session cookies to be set, you may not be
able to use our website, access the full content otherwise available through our website and/or use the full
features and functionality of our website.
-
Personal Information Collected.
In order for the User to access certain Services that the Company
offers via the Web Sites, the Company requires the User to provide information that personally identifies
the User (“Personal Information”). Personal Information may include the following:
- Identity Data includes names, title, date of birth, and gender.

How Personal Data is Collected.
We collect information about the use of our website, as well as
any personal information that you provide on the site. We will not share this personal information in a
manner that is inconsistent with the privacy policy unless required to do so by law. We collect data in a
variety of ways, including, but not limited to, directly from you from phones calls, our website (via cookies
or as entered by you), information submitted via email, physical mail, online or physical forms, business
cards collected while at events, conferences, or verbally, or as collected during the ordinary course of
business. We may acquire personal data from third parties while staying compliant with all regulations,
such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA")
as amended and extended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”). Measures are taken to secure
assurance from these sources, ensuring that you have granted consent for the sharing of such information
when you initially provided it to the respective third party.
-
Non-Discrimination Clause.
T&S Brass and Bronze Works Inc. is committed to ensuring the
privacy and security of your personal data. We adhere to the principles set forth in applicable data
regulations to guarantee fair and transparent processing of your information.
We do not process personal data for any purpose that is incompatible with the purposes for which it was
originally collected. We do not engage in any form of discriminatory processing based on race, color,
ethnicity, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, age, or any other
protected characteristic. Our data processing activities are designed to treat all individuals equally and
fairly, respecting their rights and privacy.
If the User communicates with the Company by e-mail or completes online registration forms, surveys or
other forms, any information provided in such communication also may be collected as Personal
Information. If you have any questions about how we handle your personal data or if you believe your
privacy rights have been violated, please contact us at personaldatainquiry@tsbrass.com.
2. How We Use Your Personal Information.
By providing Personal Information on or through the Web
Sites, the User is authorizing the Company to use that Personal Information. The Company uses Personal
Information (i) to respond to requests and inquiries, (ii) to send the User information about the Company,
including its affiliates, its products, or services, and (iii) to otherwise contact the User.
3. Who We Share Your Personal Information With.
The Company may provide User’s Personal
Information for a legitimate business purpose to third parties providing the Company services related to the
Web Sites or the services provided through them, solely for the purposes of the services provided by such
third party. We do not provide User’s Personal Information to third parties for such parties’ use in marketing
or advertising. Except as described herein and as may be required by court order, other governmental
agency order, applicable regulations, or other official proceeding, the Company does not sell, trade, or
otherwise transfer to outside parties Personal Information unless the User provides consent in advance,
where such consent must be in writing, which includes by email, except as provided in this Privacy Policy
or required by law.
4. User Choice Regarding Collection, Use and Distribution of Traffic Data and Personal Information.
The User may choose not to allow the use of cookies under Traffic Data. The User’s system
settings control the use of cookies (not the Company). The User should check whether the User’s browser
settings allow the User to refuse cookies. If the User does not accept cookies, the User will still have access
to some, but not all, of the facilities of the Web Sites.
The User may choose not to provide the Company with any Personal Information. In such an event, the
User can still access some of the Web Sites; however, the User will not be able to access and use those
portions of the Web Sites that require the User’s Personal Information, and the Company may not be able
to respond to certain inquiries of the User.
5. How Long Your Personal information Will Be Kept.
We will keep your Personal Information while
we are providing products and/or services to you. Thereafter, we will keep your Personal Information for
as long as is necessary:
- To respond to any questions, complaints or claims made by you or on your behalf;
- To show that we treated you fairly; or

We will not retain your Personal Information for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this
policy. Different retention periods apply for different types of personal information.
