If you do not agree to any of these terms, you should not use the website.

Solid Border website
This Privacy Policy applies solely to the Solid Border website, which may contain links to partner or third party websites that are not owned or controlled by Solid Border. Solid Border has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party website, which may collect both passive and personally identifiable information. In addition, Solid Border will not and cannot censor or edit the content of any third party site. By using the Solid Border website, you expressly relieve Solid Border from any and all liability arising from your use of any third party website. Accordingly, we encourage you to be aware when you leave the Solid Border website, and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each other website that you visit. -
What Type of Information Do We Collect and Use?
When you visit the Solid Border website, we may collect passive information about your visit. Passive information is any form of aggregate data, navigational data, tracking data, click-stream data, or historical data, which does not on its own personally identify you. Passive Information includes information collected through cookies and web beacons. When you complete a survey, subscribe to one of our newsletters, or submit other data through the Solid Border website, we may also obtain and collect personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information is information collected online that personally identifies you, such as by name, email address, or mailing address. Solid Border provides you with the ability to “opt-out” of certain uses of such personally identifiable information. -
Maintenance & Opt-Out of Information
If you wish to opt-out of our use and disclosure of your personally identifiable information, other than as expressly permitted in this Privacy Policy, you will have the option to do so when you first submit your personally identifiable information via the Solid Border website. Simply state your desire to opt-out where indicated. If you wish to amend or delete any personally identifiable information that you have previously provided without opt-out, please send us a message at [email protected]. We will endeavor to provide a simple way to review, correct, update or remove personally identifiable information you have given us. If you wish to stop receiving a Solid Border newsletter or other circulation, please follow the “unsubscribe” instructions contained in each newsletter. - How Do We Use Personally Identifiable Information?
If you have opted out of our general use of personally identifiable information, Solid Border will not use or disclose such information except as follows:
– to communicate directly with you in connection with your specific requests;
– to validate credit card numbers;
– to comply with a lawful subpoena or court order;
– to remedy any violation or breach of an agreement between you and Solid Border; and
– to prevent harm to the property or rights of Solid Border or its customers.
If you have not “opted-out” of our use and disclosure of your personally identifiable information, Solid Border may also use such information for its own marketing and survey purposes, and Solid Border may appoint third party agents in connection with such marketing and survey efforts, subject to a confidentiality agreement concerning the information. Solid Border will not, however, disclose any personally identifiable information for use in connection with a third party’s marketing efforts.

Unsolicited Emails Received by You
Solid Border does not send unsolicited bulk emails to anyone who has requested that we do not contact them. We send newsletters only to those who have taken affirmative steps to subscribe. If you have inadvertently received one of our newsletters, or if you simply wish to stop receiving them, please follow the “Unsubscribe” instructions contained in each newsletter, visit this page to modify your information or unsubscribe, or send a request to be unsubscribed to [email protected]. -
Cookies
Your browser software includes a feature called “cookies.” We may use “cookies” to enhance your experience with our site. If enabled, cookies may store small amounts of data on your computer about your visit to the Solid Border website, including your page preferences. Cookies tell us nothing about you personally, unless you specifically give us additional information. Solid Border does not merge or associate our cookie information with any personally identifiable information obtained by us or from third parties. Cookies simply assist us in tracking which of our features you like best and what content you may have viewed during past visits. When you re-visit the Solid Border website, cookies can enable us to customize our content according to your preferences. We may use cookies to: (i) keep count of your return visits to the website; (ii) accumulate anonymous, aggregate, statistical information on website usage; (iii) deliver content specific to your interests or past viewing history; and (iv) save your password so you don’t have to re-enter it each time you visit our sites. You can also disable cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you can accept or reject all cookies, or request a notification when a cookie is set. -
IP Addresses
An Internet Protocol (“IP”) address is a number assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet. An Internet Service Provider (“ISP”) typically assigns a random dynamic IP address at the time of your dial-up. For local area network (“LAN”), DSL, or cable modem users, a static IP address may be permanently assigned to a particular computer. Solid Border may record the IP addresses of visitors to its website. While an IP address may reveal your ISP or geographic area, we cannot determine your identity solely based upon your IP address. Other websites you visit have IP addresses, and we may collect the IP addresses of those websites and their pages, but these IP addresses are never associated with Internet users. -
Web Beacons
The website may contain web beacons, which are electronic images (sometimes called “single-pixel gifs”) that allow us to count page views, or to access cookies. We may also include web beacons in HTML-formatted newsletters containing graphics that we may send to opt-in subscribers, to count the number of newsletters that have been opened and read. Our web beacons do not collect, gather, monitor, or share any personal information about our website visitors. They are used only to compile our anonymous, aggregate statistics about website usage. -
Computer Profiles
Solid Border may also collect and accumulate other anonymous data that helps us understand and analyze the Internet experience of our visitors. For example, we may accumulate visitor data relating to referring domain names, the type of browsers used, operating system software, screen resolutions, color capabilities, browser plug-ins, language settings, cookie preferences, search engine keywords and JavaScript enablement. None of this information is personally identifiable and we only share this information in the aggregate, reflecting overall website or Internet usage trends, as outlined in this Privacy Policy. -
Security
Some pages of the Solid Border website use security measures to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of information that is transmitted through the website. These pages use Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) connections with 128-bit encryption for certain transactions and confidential data. When you use a secure browser, all information you submit comes to us over the Internet in an encrypted form, with a digital certificate issued by a third-party certification authority such as VeriSign®. To view this certificate, click on the image of the closed lock or the solid key on the bottom bar of your browser window. We also maintain our servers in locked facilities with secure access. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. You can report network abuse and any risk of security violations to us by emailing [email protected]. -
Children’s Online Privacy Protection
The Solid Border website complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA). COPPA and its accompanying FTC regulation protects the privacy of children using the Internet. Solid Border does not knowingly collect contact or personally identifiable information from children under 13. The Solid Border website is not intended to solicit information of any kind from children under 13, and is designed to block our knowing acceptance of any such information, wherever age related information is requested. It is possible that by fraud or deception we may receive information pertaining to children under 13. If we are notified of this, as soon as we verify the information, we will immediately obtain parental consent or otherwise delete the information from our servers. If you want to notify us of our receipt of information by children under 13, please do so by emailing us at privacy at solidborder.com. - Contact Information
