Our Privacy Policy

1. Intended Use of Personal Data
   Most of our services do not require any form of registration, allowing you to visit our site without telling us who you are. However, some services may require registration. When you register with us, you may need to complete certain fields (some are required and some are optional), as well as choose a user name and password. In these situations, if you choose to withhold any personal data requested by us, it may not be possible for you to gain access to certain parts of the site and for us to respond to your query.
   
   Three Rivers Corporation processes personal data for specific and limited purposes which we inform you about when we ask you for information. For example, we may collect and use personal data to provide you with information regarding our products, to provide you with products or services, to bill you for products and services you request, to market products and services which we think may be of interest to you, or to communicate with you for other purposes.
   
   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Policy, any information collected by any Three Rivers Corporation website may be transferred to a successor company in the event that Three Rivers Corporation is a party to a merger, or in the event that any Three Rivers Corporation business to which the relevant website relates is sold or otherwise transferred to another company.

    

2. Non-Disclosure of Information
   Three Rivers Corporation will not sell, share, or otherwise distribute your personal data to third parties outside the Three Rivers Corporation group. However, personal data may occasionally be transferred to third parties who act for or on behalf of Three Rivers Corporation, or in connection with the business of Three Rivers Corporation, for further processing in accordance with the purpose(s) for which the data were originally collected.
   
   Where disclosure of personal data to a third party is likely or necessary for whatever reason, Three Rivers Corporation will, wherever possible, endeavor to ensure that the disclosure and intended use of the data are clearly indicated.
   
   Such third parties may operate different privacy policies. However, we endeavor to ensure that such third parties provide the same level of protection as Three Rivers Corporation and, where appropriate, we will contractually require them to process data transferred only for the purposes expressly authorized by Three Rivers Corporation.

    

3. Security and Confidentiality
   To ensure the security and confidentiality of personal data that Three Rivers Corporation collects on-line, Three Rivers Corporation uses data networks protected, inter alia, by industry standard firewall and password protection. While we cannot guarantee against any loss, misuse or alteration to data, we try to prevent such unfortunate occurrences.

    

4. Anonymous Data and “Cookies”
   Most of the information that Three Rivers Corporation collects from its website(s) is anonymous information, such as the pages you visit and searches you perform. When you visit our website we do not collect any personal data from you unless otherwise authorized by you.
   
   Anonymous information is processed by Three Rivers Corporation to help improve the content of the site and to compile aggregate statistics about individuals using our site for internal, market research purposes. In so doing, Three Rivers Corporation may install “cookies” that collect the first level domain name of the user (e.g., “bigmail.com” from an e-mail address of “john@bigmail.com”) and the date and time of access. “Cookies” by themselves cannot be used to discover the identity of the user. A “cookie” is a small piece of information which is sent to your browser and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies do not damage your computer. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a “cookie”. This will enable you to decide if you want to accept it or not.

    

5. Spamming
   Three Rivers Corporation does not condone “spamming”. Spamming is defined as sending unsolicited e-mails, usually of a commercial nature, in large numbers and repeatedly to individuals with whom the sender has had no previous contact or who have declined to receive such communications.
   
   In contrast, where Three Rivers Corporation believes that certain product, safety, or other information is of importance to you it reserves the right to inform you by e-mail whilst giving you the choice of opting out of such service.

    

6. Personal Information and Children
   Three Rivers Corporation will not knowingly collect, use or disclose personal data from a minor under the age of 14, without obtaining prior consent from a person with parental responsibility (e.g., a parent or guardian) through direct off-line contact. We will provide the parent with (i) notice of the specific types of personal data being collected from the minor, and (ii) the opportunity to object to any further collection, use, or storage of such information. Three Rivers Corporation abides by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act in the U.S. and respects similar laws designed to protect children found in other countries.

    

7. Links to Other Sites
   This Privacy Policy applies only to Three Rivers Corporation websites to the exclusion of third party websites. Three Rivers Corporation may provide links to other websites which we believe may be of interest to our visitors. We aim to ensure that such websites are of the highest standard. However, due to the nature of the World Wide Web, Three Rivers Corporation cannot guarantee the standards of every website to which it provides a link or be responsible for the contents of non-Three Rivers Corporation sites.

   If you have any queries or complaints about our compliance with this Privacy Policy, or if you would like to make any recommendations or comments to improve the quality of our Privacy Policy, please e-mail us at dkozakiewicz@trccompany.com

    

9. Dispute Resolution
   This Privacy Policy and any disputes relating in any way to this Privacy Policy or the use of any person’s personal data, sensitive information, or other information, shall be construed by and resolved in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan. Any lawsuit which may arise with respect to this Agreement or the Services shall be brought only in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Michigan.
