Use of cookies

The Site uses “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your computer or phone by a web page server. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages within the Site, or register with the Site, a cookie helps us recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the Site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Site features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, know that you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Site.

How do we protect your information?

Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential.

We implement a variety of security measures when a user enters, submits, or accesses their information to maintain the safety of your personal information. All transactions are processed through a gateway provider and are not stored or processed on our servers.

Third-party disclosure

PRCC does not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include affiliated companies or trusted third party service providers that assist us in operating our Site, conducting our business, or processing your applications made through our Facebook page or the Site. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety. We may share your information in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, restructuring, sale of certain of our ownership interests, assets, or both, or other corporate change, including without limitation, during the course of any due diligence process.  

General, non-personally identifiable visitor information may also be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.

To be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:

  • We will notify you via email
  • We will notify the users via in-Site notification
  • Within 7 business days

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle, which requires that individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

How we protect your information

We have implemented appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the PII you provide against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or use consistent with industry best practices. We save your information on servers and in facilities that only appropriate PRCC personnel and contractors have access to.  However, any information you submit to us by email is not secure, so please do not send sensitive information through email to us.

CAN-SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

We collect your email address to:

• Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions

To be in accordance with CANSPAM, we agree to the following:

  • If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you can select the “unsubscribe” link in the email or email us at support@platteriverconcrete.com and we will promptly remove you from ALL correspondence.  Please note that some non-marketing communications are not subject to general opt-out, such as communications relating to services we are providing you, and other support related information.

Links to third party sites

Our Site may contain links to websites, apps, tools, widgets and plug-ins operated by other companies for your convenience and information. These online services and third party features may operate independently from us.  With the exception of information shared through our Facebook page, we do not share your PII with these third parties and are not responsible for their privacy practices.  Once you have left our Site, you should check the applicable privacy policy of the third party online service to determine how they will handle any information they collect from you.
