Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 1, 2023

CoolTops.com has a firm commitment to privacy. We take your privacy concerns seriously and want to make every effort to address them as we strive to offer our site visitors a high quality, interactive and personalized experience. That is why we have adopted the following policy, which explains our position on information gathering and how we intend to use and share any information we collect. It is important to note that this policy applies only to information collected by CoolTops.com and does not apply to information obtained or used by AccuForm Polymers Inc. or its affiliates through other means.

CoolTops.com collects and stores Personally Identifiable Information such as your name, address, e-mail address, etc. when you sign-up for services. What information we collect and store depends on the page you are visiting and the services you elect to participate in. We use this information to operate our services, provide you with the highest quality services and offer you opportunities we think will be of interest. This information is not shared with anyone outside of AccuForm Polymers Inc. except as provided for in this Privacy Policy. More specifics on the information we collect are outlined within this policy.

This privacy policy is subject to change from time to time. Users of CoolTops.com may view the privacy policy, including any revisions, by clicking on the “Privacy Policy” link on the “Our People, Our Company” page of CoolTops.com If the changes represent a material departure from our current policy or materially affect users’ rights and obligations, if feasible, the changes will be posted on this page 30 days in advance of their effective date.

What information we collect and how it is used

Orders, account creation, customer service inquiries, returns and other offers require you to provide certain Personally Identifiable Information, such as your name, e-mail address, street address, gender, and date of birth. Some features and services may require additional Personally Identifiable Information or other demographic information. We may collect other personal information when you provide feedback, comments, participate in surveys, or if you contact us offline. For example, when you enter contests you will be asked to also provide your phone number so that we can reach you in the event you’ve won a prize. All users may decline to share such information with us, by choosing not to register on the web site or use our services. Only registered members, however, may access certain content, services and features.

Passive data collection and use

Like most Web sites, CoolTops.com also collects and logs information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to you, such as your IP address, the name and location of your Internet Service Provider, the type and version of your browser, the length of time that you stay on CoolTops.com, search queries, your click-stream data, the location that referred you to CoolTops.com and the average number of pages viewed. If you visit another website prior to browsing CoolTops.com, that website might place personally identifiable information within a URL, which may be logged by us. Your IP address is the identifier assigned to your particular computer when you access the Internet. Depending on how you connect to the Internet, your IP address may always be the same, or it may change each time you access the Internet. Note that logging your IP address does not in and of itself provide us with your name, e-mail address or home or work address. We use this log information for systems administration and troubleshooting purposes and may also use it to gather general demographic information about you such as your general location and your Internet Service Provider. In order to better provide our services to you and to develop member profiles that enable us to focus our site and services on your interests, we may correlate this log information with your registration information.

Use of cookies

Most standard Web browsers contain a feature called “cookies,” which allow a Web site to place information about a user’s visit to that Web site in a small data text file that is stored on the user’s computer. Our use of cookie technology will likely be transparent to you and is used to recognize you and hold information from one visit to the next in an effort to increase your ease of use of CoolTops.com and to allow us to better understand how people use our site through click-stream analysis. You can turn the cookies feature off by using your browser preference options, but doing so may limit your access to CoolTops.com and may prevent you from registration.

Use of personally identifiable information

Personally Identifiable Information may be accessed by the user who entered it, by AccuForm Polymers Inc. and CoolTops.com personnel, and by certain third parties, such as those who provide technical support or content services to CoolTops.com We ask these third parties to keep any personal information supplied by us confidential. We also endeavor to keep your Personally Identifiable Information inaccessible to other users of CoolTops.com

We also reserve the right to disclose Personally Identifiable Information when deemed necessary or appropriate to comply with the law, respond to claims, protect our computer systems and customers, ensure the integrity and operation of our business and systems, or protect the rights, property or safety of CoolTops.com, its affiliates, or others.

We will not disclose your Personally Identifiable Information without your advance permission except as explained in this privacy policy or as explained at the time the information was collected.

Use of aggregated information

In order to describe our services to prospective partners, advertisers and others, we may use your Personally Identifiable Information to create a compiled, aggregate view of the CoolTops.com audience and their usage patterns. We use Aggregated Information to operate our services and to better understand our audience as we develop new content and services. Aggregated Information may also be shared with third parties we contract with to provide content and services on CoolTops.com, so that they can better understand our audience. For example, we might disclose that a certain percentage of our users are female or within a certain age range or live within a cluster of ZIP codes.

Children’s privacy

CoolTops.com is particularly concerned with providing a safe online environment for children. Children under the age 13 will not be allowed to register at CoolTops.com. AccuForm Polymers Inc. does not ask children under age 13 for more personal information, as a condition of participation, than is reasonably necessary to participate in a given activity or promotion. Further, we limit most of our contests to people who are at least 18 years of age, making children ineligible to enter.

CoolTops.com strongly recommends parental supervision when a child uses the Internet, particularly when a child enters a forum or uses e-mail. We also encourage parents to instruct their children not to give out personal information in these areas.

Member mail and e-mail offers

If a user granted permission to receive solicitations (referred to as E-mail Offers) at the time of registration but subsequently wishes to opt out from receiving such solicitations, the user may contact the AccuForm Polymers Inc. customer service department via E-mail at info@CoolTops.com and change one or more of the category-specific permissions related to receiving E-mail from AccuForm Polymers Inc. and CoolTops.com AccuForm Polymers Inc. may send you information via e-mail about various products or services that we believe may be of interest to you.

These HTML-encoded e-mail messages may also read cookies.
