Passive Collection. What we collect is often determined by the settings on your web browser. Please refer to your web browser for details on what information your browser sends or how to change settings.

In addition, as you navigate through our site, certain information can be collected.

Our system also automatically gathers information about the areas of our site that you visit, access times and referring web site addresses. We also collect information about your browser, type of computer, operating system and Internet service provider.

We gather this information to better understand our customers’ interests, which areas of our site are the most popular, and to uncover ways to improve our site and enhance our visitors’ experience. We also use this information for security purposes to provide you with a safe online experience.

Active Collection. By communicating directly with us via e-mail, you submit certain business and personal information — this can include your name, address, business name, e-mail address, phone number, employment history, etc. This information is used for the purposes for which you provide it. This can include submitting price quotes, evaluation for employment, fulfilling requests for information, direct contact, etc. The information is always used to best determine how to fulfill the requests you make to SPG.

THE USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Your privacy is a primary concern of SPG. The information we collect will be relevant and limited to the purposes for which it is collected.
