Respect for the privacy of personal information is very important to Stonegate.

Stonegate is committed to collecting, maintaining, and securing personal information about you in compliance with State and Federal law. This policy applies to personal information collected by Stonegate via its website, email, chat, or other online tools. This policy does not apply to any website links operated by third parties with whom Stonegate has no affiliation or control.

What is “personal information”?
Personal information is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. Personal information does not include content a customer or other person uploads to any Stonegate blog or forum for viewing by the public, such as customer testimonials or online discussions. Personal information does not include publicly available information or aggregate consumer information from which individual identities have been removed.

How does Stonegate collect personal information online?
Stonegate collects personal information through its online services, including its contact forms on Stonegate’s website, through forms that appear when a customer clicks on a Stonegate advertising banner on a third- party website, by chat, and by email. At this time, there are three primary types of information that Stonegate collects through online services:

1. Information from you: Stonegate collects personal information and other data that you voluntarily enter in to forms or data fields on online services. This includes identity and contact information such as your name, address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, gender, job title, profession, financial information, preferences and interests, and other related information that Stonegate deems appropriate to further the purposes of its online services.

We may also collect, use, and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated data could be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal information as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your usage data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. If we combine or connect aggregated data with your personal data so it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data used under this privacy policy.

We collect no special categories of personal data about you. This includes your race or ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, or information about your health. We collect no information about criminal convictions and offenses.

2. Information from others: Stonegate may collect personal information from public or third-party information sources. For example, if users use a credit card on our website, Stonegate or its agent verifies the validity of the credit card information with financial or credit organizations. Sometimes, we may augment our existing user databases with information from third parties. Some of this information may be personal information, such as change of postal address information.

3. Information collected from your computer or electronic device: We may collect information about your computer or other electronic device when you use our online services. This information may include your IP address, domain name, browser type, and date and time of your request.
