Effective Date of Policy: October 1, 2021
Introduction
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) exists to inform users of the SNOW Partners website about the way that SNOW Partners (the “Company” or “SNOW Partners”) collects, uses, and shares personal information. Please read the following information carefully and take it into consideration when deciding whether to share your personal data with us.
What is Personal Data?
For the Company’s purposes, personal information may include your name, title, company or organization, home and/or business address, email, phone numbers, and credit card information. In addition, “personal data” is defined in the General Data Protection Regulation 2017 and any successor legislation.
Purposes for Collection of Personal Information.
SNOW Partners will identify the purpose for which personal information is collected at or before the time the information is collected or, when appropriate, at or before the time the personal information is used for a new purpose.
We will collect your personal information to establish and maintain a responsible relationship with customers; to understand needs and preferences of individuals; to develop, enhance, market and/or provide products and services; to manage and develop SNOW Partners’ business and operations including transfer of data among affiliated entities; and to meet legal and regulatory requirements.
Collection of Personal Information.
Personal information that we may collect includes your name, title, company or organization, home and/or business address, email, phone numbers and credit card information, or other personal data as defined above. Personal information excludes certain information such as publicly available information. This website may collect certain information about your site visit including the name of the internet service provider and the Internet Protocol (IP) address through which you accessed the internet; the date and time you accessed our website; the pages that you accessed while on our site; and the internet address of the website from which you linked to our website. Federal COPPA (Children’s Privacy Protection Act) regulations prohibit solicitation by email of any youth 13 years old and younger and requires any subscriber to email newsletters and/or mailing lists to be at least 14 years of age.
Consent.
Consent is defined as voluntary agreement with the collection, use and disclosure of personal information for defined purposes. Consent must be express and can be provided directly by the individual or by an authorized representative. Express consent can be given orally, electronically or in writing.
In obtaining consent, SNOW Partners shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that an individual is advised of the purposes for which personal information will be used or disclosed. Purposes shall be stated in a manner that can be reasonably understood by the individual. SNOW Partners will seek consent to use and disclose personal information at the same time it collects the information. SNOW Partners will require individuals to consent to the collection, use or disclosure of personal information as a condition of the supply of a product or service only if such collection, use or disclosure is reasonably required to fulfill the identified purposes.
Disclosure of Personal Information.
Only SNOW Partners employees with a business need to know, or whose duties reasonably so require, are granted access to personal information about individuals. SNOW Partners may disclose an individual’s personal information to a person who in the reasonable judgment of SNOW Partners is seeking the information as an agent of the individual; a company or individual employed by SNOW Partners to perform functions on its behalf, such as but not limited to research or data processing; another company or individual for the development, enhancement, marketing or provision of any of SNOW Partners’ products and services; an agent used by SNOW Partners to collect the individual’s account; a public authority or agent of a public authority, if in the reasonable judgment of SNOW Partners it appears that there is imminent danger to life or property which could be avoided or minimized by disclosure of the information; another entity as part of a merger, a sale of assets or all or part of a business, or any other corporate change or re-organization; a third party or parties, where the individual consents to such disclosure or disclosure is required or permitted by law.
Use of Personal Information.
SNOW Partners is responsible for personal information in its possession or under its control. SNOW Partners shall take appropriate and reasonable steps to protect personal information against such risks as loss or theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, modification or destruction. Any and all personal information collected will be used only by SNOW Partners and its affiliated entities. Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy statement, personal information collected by any means will not be shared outside of SNOW Partners and its affiliated entities without your consent.

Security and SSL
Protecting your order information is a priority for us. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to protect the security of your online order information.
To check the security of your connection, look at the lower left-hand or right-hand corner of your browser window after accessing the e-commerce server. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on your browser), then SSL is active and the server is secure. You can also double-check by looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from “http” to “https.”
Some versions of browsers and some firewalls do not permit communication through secure servers. In that case, you may not be able to connect to the server and therefore may not be able to place an order through an insecure connection. If you cannot access the secure server for any reason, please place your order by phone at (570) 629-1661.
