Privacy Policy

Lake Air Companies (“Lake Air”) may operate several websites including www.Lakeairmetals.com. It is Lake Air’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Lake Air collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Lake Air’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Lake Air’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Lake Air may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Lake Air also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Lake Air does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Lake Air’s websites choose to interact with Lake Air in ways that require Lake Air to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Lake Air gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we may ask visitors who register for more information at www.lakeair.com to provide their name, email address, and company address. In each case, Lake Air collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Lake Air. Lake Air does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Lake Air may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Lake Air may monitor the most popular parts of the www.LakeAir.com site. Lake Air may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Lake Air does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Lake Air discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Lake Air’s behalf or to provide services available at Lake Air’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Lake Air’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Lake Air will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Lake Air discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Lake Air believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Lake Air, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Lake Air website and have supplied your email address, Lake Air may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Lake Air and our services. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Lake Air takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
