How KHP Protects and Uses Personal Information

KHP works to protect the security of Personal Information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts the information that is transmitted on the Site. KHP uses the Personal Information of a User to market its products, collect and process orders for its products, and to respond to customer service or support questions. KHP may employ companies and individuals to perform functions on KHP's behalf. Examples may include providing marketing assistance, performing statistical analysis, providing customer service and processing orders and payments. These companies and individuals will have access to the Personal Information only as necessary to perform their functions, and may not access or use it for any other purpose.  If you are a California resident, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits you to request information regarding the disclosure of your Personal Information by KHP to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.  To make such a request, please send an email to info@kettleholepartners.com.

KHP has appropriate security measures in place within its database and physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information that has been collected on the Site. These measures include limiting the number of people who have physical access to KHP's database servers, as well as electronic security systems and password protections which guard against unauthorized access. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure and we are unable to guarantee the absolute security of the Personal Information we have collected from you.

KHP may occasionally use a User’s Personal Information to provide customer service to the User, such as communicating with Users about their accounts and/or orders.

KHP may also use a User’s Personal Information to notify the User of KHP's services and special offers via periodic mailings or e-mail updates. Users may opt-out of these communications by emailing KHP at info@kettleholepartners.com with “UNSUBSCRIBE” in the subject line. 

We may share Personal Information with our service providers, including those who assist us with marketing, and with other trusted parties whom we believe offer products or services that may be of interest to you.

KHP will not sell Personal Information of any User. However, in the event KHP goes through a business transition, such as a merger or an acquisition of its equity interests or assets, the Personal Information of KHP Users will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
