As a general policy, with the exception of IP addresses, no Personal Information is automatically collected from visitors to the Ottawa Home Exteriors website. Ottawa Home Exteriors may gather and analyze IP addresses and certain Information of a Non-Personal Nature regarding website usage by visitors to the Ottawa Home Exteriors website. Such data is used in an aggregate form to assist Ottawa Home Exteriors in determining general usage patterns and to administer, diagnose problems with, and fine tune the layout of the Ottawa Home Exteriors website. We may share non-personal, summary, or aggregate customer data with partners and other third parties at our discretion.

Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information

Certain Personal Information may be voluntarily and knowingly provided to us by visitors to Ottawa Home Exteriors. When entering a contest or requesting broker or reseller information, for example, we will ask you for your name, e-mail address, mailing address, telephone number, as well as certain other information.

Ottawa Home Exteriors shall collect Personal Information of visitors to Ottawa Home Exteriors and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to protect your Personal Information. If you do not want us to have access to your Personal Information, please do not provide it to us. When you do provide your Personal Information, you are authorizing us to use it in accordance with the terms of the Privacy Policy, including your right to limit our use of the Personal Information (see “Who to Contact” below).

Ottawa Home Exteriors may use Personal Information to contact you, to process and store the Personal Information so that we are able to better understand you and how we can improve our products and services, for editorial, feedback or other fully disclosed purposes, such as to enter you into a contest, respond to a future on-line order or respond by e-mail to an inquiry that you posed on-line. We may also match your Personal Information that you provide to us on this website to information contained in our shipping database. Your Personal Information may also be used by Ottawa Home Exteriors, to contact you regarding other products or services which may be of interest to you (including those that we may offer jointly with other companies).

We will not give, sell, rent, or loan any of your Personal Information to any third party (with the exception of third parties performing functions on our behalf who have an obligation to keep your information completely confidential) unless you have authorized us to do so.

Ottawa Home Exteriors reserves the right to access and/or disclose Personal Information where required to comply with applicable laws or lawful government requests or, in Ottawa Home Exteriors’s reasonable opinion, to operate the Ottawa Home Exteriors website properly and securely, or to protect Ottawa Home Exteriors or visitors to this website. To the extent reasonably possible, Ottawa Home Exteriors shall attempt to obtain the prior consent of the individual to whom such Personal Information relates prior to disclosure to third parties.

A Note to Parents

Ottawa Home Exteriors is very sensitive to privacy issues and is committed to protecting the on-line privacy of children and making the Internet safe for our users. As a result, no Personal Information should be submitted to or posted on this site by children under the age of 18 without their parent’s or guardian’s permission. In addition, if a user younger than 18 wishes to send us Personal Information, he or she must first give us his or her parent’s or guardian’s e-mail address so that we can obtain their permission. No Personal Information will knowingly be accepted from a child under 18 before this permission is obtained. Be assured that Ottawa Home Exteriors will not condition a child’s participation in any website activity on the child’s disclosure of more Personal Information than is reasonably necessary to participate in that activity.

If your child has already provided us with Personal Information, you may ask to see this information for the purpose of correcting it, or ask us to delete this information from our records entirely (see “Who to Contact” below.)

Whom to Contact

We welcome your feedback. If you have questions, comments or concerns about our Privacy Policy, or would like to do any of the following:

See Personal Information that you have already sent us so that you can correct or update it.
Delete your Personal Information from our files once your child under 18 has sent us Personal Information
Ask that we not send you mailings or otherwise contact you
Report any violation of this Privacy Policy
