INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE – PERSONAL INFORMATION

We collect personal data only when you provide it to us, through registration, completion of forms or e-mails, as part of an order for products or services, inquiries or requests about materials being ordered and similar situations in which you have chosen to provide the information to us.  Additional information may be required for specific activities such as when registering your Broil-Mate product: you will be asked to provide product information such as model and serial number, purchase date, price, retailer name, and proof of purchase.  You are not required to complete and submit the product registration form to which this notice refers, but you must be aware that, should you choose not to submit a fully completed form, we may be unable to meet your requests or to provide you with our requested services properly. This may also prevent us from sending you information which we think may be of interest or benefit to you, such as information about extended warranties for the product (s) you have purchased. 

 If you do not want your personal information collected, do not provide it to us.

The database and its contents remain at our company and stay with data processors or servers acting on our behalf and responsible to us. Your personal data will not be passed on by us or by our agents for use by third parties in any form whatsoever, unless we have obtained your consent or are legally required to do so.
