HOW WE SHARE PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
Masterchem Industries LLC may share personally identifiable information collected via the Services with Affiliated Entities or other third parties as described below. You should also be aware that personally identifiable information about you may be transferred to or received by Affiliated Entities or third parties in the U.S. or in other countries, which countries may have different privacy regulations than those applicable in the country where you reside.
Affiliated Entities. We may share personally identifiable information with our parent, subsidiaries and affiliates worldwide (collectively, "Affiliated Entities") for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to permit such Affiliated Entities to send you marketing materials. If you wish to opt-out from our sharing of your personally identifiable information with Affiliated Entities for their marketing purposes, please see the "Choice: OptOut" section below for information on how to opt-out.
Service Providers. We may use third-party service providers to help us operate our business and the Services or to administer activities on our behalf, such as sending emails, hosting dealer locater sites, providing order fulfillment, conducting advertising or customer service, and administering contests or incentive programs. We may share personally identifiable information with these third parties for those business purposes. For instance, if you request a brochure, we may share personally identifiable information about you with fulfillment and management agencies to complete your request.
Dealers and Retailers. We may share personally identifiable information with third parties that offer our products for sale. The third-party dealer or retailer may contact you directly by email, phone or postal mail. If you provide any personally identifiable information to such a third party through its website or otherwise, your transaction will occur with the third party (and not on the Services) and the personally identifiable information you provide will be collected by, and controlled by the privacy policy of, that third party. Masterchem Industries LLC recommends that you review the privacy policy of third parties who may contact you about Masterchem Industries LLC or Affiliated Entities' products or services.
Other Third Parties. We may share personally identifiable information with unaffiliated third parties, including dealers and retailers discussed above, to permit such third parties to send to you marketing materials. If you wish to opt-out from our sharing of your personally identifiable information with third parties for their marketing purposes, please see the "Choice: OptOut" section below for information on how to opt-out.
E-mails to Friends. Please note that any personally identifiable information you provide in connection with sending an electronic postcard or other message to a friend through the Services, such as your name and your e-mail address, will, of course, be disclosed to your friend.
Social Media. We reserve the right to share any personally identifiable information you provide with your friends associated with your social media account, to other website users and as well as to your social media account provider, in connection with your social sharing activity, such as if you connect your social media account to your Services account or log-into your Services account from you social media account. By connecting your Services account and your social media account you authorize us to share information with your social media account provider and you understand that the use of the information we share will be governed by the social media site's privacy policy. If you do not want your personally identifiable information shared with other users or with your social media account provider, please do not connect your social media account with your Services account and do not participate in social sharing on the Services.
Promotions. We reserve the right to share the personally identifiable information you provide in connection with sweepstakes, contests and similar promotions with third parties sponsors of such sweepstakes, contests and other promotions (irrespective of whether such promotions are hosted by us), or otherwise in accordance with the rules applicable to such sweepstake, contest or other promotion. Please see the "Sweepstakes, Contests, and Other Promotions" section below for more information on participating in such activities.
Assignment. We reserve the right to transfer any and all information that we collect from Services users to an Affiliated Entity or a third party in the event of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of Masterchem Industries LLC's business, assets or stock (including without limitation in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings).
Other Disclosures. Personally identifiable information of any individual user also may be shared with other companies outside Masterchem Industries LLC: (i) as permitted by law; (ii) where we determine that disclosure of specific information is necessary to comply with the request of a law enforcement or regulatory agency or other legal process; (iii) to protect our operations or those of any of the Affiliated Entities; (iv) to protect the rights, privacy, property, interests or safety of Masterchem Industries LLC, the Affiliated Entities, Services visitors, customers, business partners, employees or the public; (v) to permit us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain (vi) to enforce our Terms of Use; and (vii) to respond to an emergency.
Co-Branded Pages. From time to time, we may enter into a special relationship with another company that is not owned by or affiliated with Masterchem Industries LLC to provide additional features on the Services, such as co-branded sites (referred to here as "co-branded pages"). Both Masterchem Industries LLC and the third-party provider are collecting personally identifiable information on these co-branded pages. Masterchem Industries LLC's collection, use and disclosure of the personally identifiable information is subject to this Privacy Policy, and the third party's Masterchem Industries LLC's collection, use and disclosure of the personally identifiable information is subject to its privacy policy. You should review the privacy policies posted on these co-branded pages to understand how personally identifiable information collected through these pages will be collected and used.
Purchases. We may use third-party payment services (each, a "Payment Service") to collect payments made through the Services. If you wish to make a payment and through the Services, you will be directed to a webpage that is hosted by the Payment Service (or the Payment Service's service providers) and not by us (such page, the "Payment Service Page"). Any personally identifiable information that you provide through the Payment Service Page will be collected by Payment Service and not by us, and will be subject to Payment Service's privacy policy, rather than this Policy. Masterchem Industries LLC has no control over, and shall not be responsible for, Payment Service's use of information collected through the Payment Service Page.
USER GENERATED CONTENT FUNCTIONS
Certain pages on the Services, including our Social Media Pages, enable users to create their own profile page or submit their own content (for example, message boards, forums, chat functionality and blogs, among other services). Any information you disclose in such a profile page or submission may be publicly available and be read, collected, or otherwise used by anyone who visits the URL of the page on which you have chosen to comment, and you should exercise caution in deciding whether to disclose your personal, financial or other sensitive information there. Masterchem Industries LLC cannot prevent such publicly-available information from being used by others in a manner that may violate this Policy, the law, or your personal privacy and safety, and is not responsible or liable for the results of any postings or the use or disclosure of any information that you disclose via such postings.

If you do not wish to receive marketing-related emails from us, or if you would prefer that we do not share personally identifiable information about you collected via the Services or otherwise with Affiliated Entities or other third parties for such Affiliates Entities' or other third parties' marketing purposes, you may opt-out of receiving such marketing-related emails and from such sharing by visiting the Kilz Email Preference Center and updating your selections. This election will also opt you out of allowing us to share personally identifiable information about you with our Affiliated Entities or unaffiliated third parties for such Affiliated Entities' or unaffiliated third parties' marketing purposes.
If you are currently receiving emails from KILZ and wish to unsubscribe, you can also click on the unsubscribe link in the footer of the email.
We will endeavor to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable. Please note that, if you opt-out as described above, we will not be able to remove personally identifiable information about you from the databases of Affiliated Entities or other third parties with which we have already shared your personally identifiable information as of the date on which we implement your opt-out request. If you wish to cease receiving marketing-related emails from such Affiliated Entities or other third parties, please contact such Affiliated Entities or other third parties directly or utilize any opt-out mechanisms set forth in their respective privacy policies or marketing-related emails.
SWEEPSTAKES, CONTESTS, AND OTHER PROMOTIONS
We may operate sweepstakes, contests, raffles and similar promotions through the Services that may require online registration with us or with third party sponsors of such sweepstakes, contests, raffles or other promotions. You should carefully review the rules of each sweepstakes, contest, raffle and promotion in which you participate through the Services, as they may contain additional important information about Masterchem Industries LLC's or a sponsor's use or disclosure of your personally identifiable information. To the extent that the terms and conditions of such rules concerning the treatment of personally identifiable information conflict with this Policy, the terms and conditions of such rules shall control.
THIRD PARTY SERVICES
The Services may contain links to other sites which are not operated by Masterchem Industries LLC. Masterchem Industries LLC IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRIVACY PRACTICES OR THE CONTENT OF SUCH OTHER WEBSITES, INCLUDING WEBSITES OPERATED BY AFFILIATED ENTITIES. We provide such links only as a convenience, and the inclusion of links on the Services does not imply endorsement of the linked site by Masterchem Industries LLC.

Masterchem Industries LLC recommends that you review the privacy policy of third-party websites arrived at from links on the Services.
Please note that we are not responsible for the collection, usage and disclosure policies and practices (including the data security practices) of other organizations, such as Facebook, Apple, Google, Microsoft, RIM or any other app developer, app provider, social media platform provider, operating system provider, wireless service provider or device manufacturer, including any personally identifiable information you disclose to other organizations through or in connection with the Apps or our Social Media Pages.
THIRD PARTY ADVERTISERS
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve advertisements regarding goods and services that may be of interest to you when you access and use the Services and other websites or online services, based on information relating to your access to and use of the Services and other websites or online services on any of your devices, as well as on information received from third parties.

SECURITY OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
Masterchem Industries LLC takes measures to protect personally identifiable information collected through the Services against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. Unfortunately, however, no security system or system of transmitting data over the Internet can be guaranteed to be entirely secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any account you might have with us has been compromised), please immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us in accordance with the "Questions" section below.
For your own privacy protection, we encourage you not to include sensitive personally identifiable information in any emails you may send to us. Please do not send credit card numbers or any sensitive personally identifiable information to us via email. Note that Masterchem Industries LLC will not request sensitive personally identifiable information in our emails to you and you should verify the authenticity of any such request.
JURISDICTIONAL ISSUES
The Services are controlled and operated by us from the United States, and are not intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country or territory other than that of the United States. Your Personal Information may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers, and by using the Services you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies or security authorities in those other countries may be entitled to access your personal information.
