Privacy Policy

What information we collect

When using this website (“the Site”), you may choose to provide us with certain personal information, including your name and contact information to subscribe to enquire about our services using web forms. Our website also collects information using cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies from third-party partners such as Google for measurement services and marketing services.

Cordia’s primary goal in collecting information is to allow us to offer products and services which are relevant to consumers like you. Personal information also allows us to provide services and features that meet your needs, and to customize our service to make your experience smooth and efficient. Any personal information that we collect will only be used for internal marketing purposes of Cordia, except as otherwise required by law, or as agreed to by you, or as disclosed to you in this Privacy Statement. Below is the type of information we collect.

Non-personal, Aggregate and Statistical Data

Cordia may collect certain non-personal or aggregate data. We may use web log information (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) and use cookies when you visit our web pages. For example, when you visit one of our websites, our web server will automatically recognize some non-personal information, including but not limited to the date and time you visited our site, the pages you visited, the referrer (the website you came from), the type of browser you are using (e.g. Internet Explorer or Safari), the type of operating system you are using (e.g. Windows or Mac), and the domain name and address of your Internet service provider (e.g. AT&T or Comcast).

Email Addresses

At the time Cordia requests an email address from you, you will be given the opportunity to indicate whether or not you wish to receive future email solicitations from us. We may, however, send you emails for other reasons such as responding to your requests for service, or information relative to your account.

Information from Other Sources

For reasons such as improving our products and services, or making product recommendations or special offers that we think will interest you as a Cordia customer, we receive information from other sources and add it to our information. The type of information we receive may include (but is not limited to) your name, address, telephone number, and in some cases, type and characteristics of your home, your age, and statistical estimates of your family size, income and home value. We also sometimes receive updated delivery and address information so that we can correct our records and deliver your next communication more easily.

How We Collect Information

Information You Give Us

Cordia does not require potential customers or visitors to visit our websites in order to provide personal information, except as necessary to be enrolled as a customer. You may choose to enter contests, vote in polls or otherwise express an opinion, subscribe to one of our services such as newsletters, or participate in one of our online forums or communities. These programs may require you to submit some information in order to participate. These programs and the types of information required are described in more detail below.

Registration / Subscriptions

To use our websites, visitors may need to register using our online registration forms and may be required to provide us with some personal information. Visitors may also be asked to select a user ID and password. Further, to register for certain services or become a member of certain programs, we may ask visitors to submit their name, email address, home address, and zip code. You can further make choices about receiving targeted newsletters and alerts from Cordia. You can always decide not to receive or stop receiving any targeted solicitations from Cordia that you do not want.

Questionnaires, Surveys and Profile Data

Cordia may occasionally ask you to complete surveys and opinion polls about your interests, needs, and attitudes. Surveys help us provide better services and products that meet customer needs. Participation is voluntary and these surveys are optional.

Customer Services and Contact Information

If you provide our customer service representatives with feedback on your experiences with our products/services or otherwise submit questions to our customer service representatives or webmasters, you will be asked to supply personal information for our record keeping and follow-up.

How We Use Your Personal Information

We may use your personal information to contact you. We may send you marketing or promotional materials including emails or other information. We may respond to your comments or requests for information; or we may contact you if needed in the course of fulfilling a service request. We may also use your personal information to confirm and verify your customer enrollment status, and for credit approval. Cordia does not collect personal information automatically, but we may combine non-personal information collected automatically (e.g., through cookies and web beacons) with your previously submitted personal information. We may also enhance or merge personal information with data obtained from third parties for the same purposes. We use this personal and statistical information about you to improve our marketing and promotional efforts; to statistically analyze site usage; to improve our content and product offerings; and to customize our sites’ content, layout and services. We may also use your information to deliver information to you that, in some cases, is targeted to your interests, such as targeted banners, new services and promotions. We believe these uses allow us to improve our site and better tailor it to meet our visitors’ needs. Cordia occasionally sends emails describing new products, promotions or events. These email services are optional and you may opt-out of these services completely, at any time.

How We May Share Your Personal Information For Promotional Purposes

Except in the event of a business transfer, we will not share, trade or sell personal information about you for promotional use by any business, other than Cordia and its affiliates without your approval. Subject to any applicable legal restrictions, we may share personal information about you with our affiliates and any vendor we use to support our business or provide service to you, including any rewards partner. If you provide your consent for non-affiliates to market their products and services to you, we may share personal information about you for that purpose. We may sometimes send offers to Cordia customers on behalf of other businesses.

When we do this, we do not give that business the name, address, telephone number or email address of our customers. We may share information with third parties and business partners that is in aggregated or anonymous form so that it does not divulge personal information, and may work with those entities to do research, including for marketing purposes, and to provide and improve products and services. When companies acquire other businesses, or sell all or portions of their business, customer information generally is one of the transferred assets. If Cordia or its affiliates sell or transfer substantially all of our assets through merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or any other change of corporate control then, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets. Aggregated and statistical data from our website visitors may be shared with our partners. For example, we may let a partner know that approximately “20,000 people visited a web page regarding a specific joint promotion.” All employees, contractors and other companies engaged by Cordia for work that involves access to personal information are contractually required to keep the information confidential and not to use it in any way other than what is necessary to perform their work for Cordia.

For Protection of Cordia and Others

We may release personal data, including account information, when we believe release is appropriate to comply with laws, regulations or judicial orders; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Cordia, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Cordia also reserves the right to share the information to respond to duly authorized information requests of governmental authorities or where required by law or regulation.

Disposal of your Personal Information

Cordia maintains your personal information in our records when you are a customer. We also maintain personal information for a period of time after you are no longer a customer if necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. These purposes may include business, legal or tax purposes. If these purposes no longer apply, we will destroy, or de-identify, or anonymize the information in accordance with our internal policies and applicable law.

Non-personal, Aggregate and Statistical Data

Cordia uses web log information (such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, etc.) to help us design our website, to identify popular features, and for other managerial purposes. However, web logs may be used if necessary to help identify any person attempting to break into or damage our website. We may share web log information with law enforcement agencies if we believe that we have evidence of a violation of computer security or related laws.

Cookies and Web Beacons

When you view one of our websites, we may collect some non-personal information about you. The collection of this non-personal information is done either through the “cookie” technology or with “web beacons” (also called “single-pixel gif” or “web pings”). Neither our cookies nor web beacons nor web log information collects any personal information. They do not contain personal information such as your name or email address.

Cookies

When you view one of our websites or interactive advertisements, we may store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a small text file, also called a “cookie”. Cookies help us in many ways to make your visit to our website more enjoyable and meaningful to you. For example, cookies avoid you having to log in every time you come back to one of our websites. They also allow us to tailor a website or advertisement to better match your interests and preferences. Most browsers can be configured not to accept cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.

Web Beacons

Web beacons are site instrumentation that help us to determine, for instance, whether a page has been viewed or not and, if so, how many times. When you ask us to send you information on a promotion or a newsletter, we may use web beacons to establish how many of the emails are actually opened. In general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web page or email, including an ad banner, can act as a web beacon. Third party advertising networks that serve ads onto any Cordia website may use cookies and/or web beacons in their advertisements. Cordia retains no control over such third party cookies and/or web beacons and does not have access to the information related to third party cookies and/or web beacons.

Children’s Policy

Cordia believes that it is especially important to protect children’s privacy online. The Cordia websites are not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Data Security

Cordia is committed to keeping the data you provide us secure and will take reasonable precautions to protect your personal information from loss, misuse or alteration, including limiting access to such information within Cordia to authorized individuals and destroying personal information that we decide not to retain in a manner designed to make it unreadable or undecipherable. Agents, contractors, or partners of Cordia who have access to your personal information in connection with providing services for Cordia are required to keep the information confidential and are not permitted to use this information for any other purpose than to carry out the services they are performing for Cordia.

Links To Other Sites

Some Cordia websites may contain links to other sites. Cordia is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such web sites. We recommend you carefully read the privacy policies of each site you visit.

Policy Changes

We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Statement from time to time. If at some time in the future, we wish to use your information for new unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our Privacy Statement, we will:

  • Post the policy changes to this section of our Privacy Statement to notify you of these changes and
  • provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses.

Further, we will only use information collected from the time of the policy change forward for any new purposes and unanticipated uses. However, after a reasonable time has transpired, we will use the information collected before the policy change for those who did not opt out to the new policy and or use of information.
