Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Commitment

Guard 1 Services LLC (referred to hereafter as Guard 1), cares about our customers and applicants and is committed to protecting their privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to all users of this website, whether they are general visitors to the public portions of our web site or consumer users who complete information forms. This Privacy Policy (referred to herein as “Privacy Policy” or “Policy”) is intended to inform you about the type of personal information Guard 1 collects from you, how it is used and what steps are taken to ensure that your personal information is kept confidential and safe. This Policy also outlines how customers can make their preferences known regarding when and how Guard 1 may send marketing communications to them.

We will not share any private information that personally identifies you (”personal or business information”) with any third party unless we have your consent; or to protect our rights or property; or as required by operation of law or the request of government regulators.

What Information We Collect

Guard 1 only collects business and personal information that is provided voluntarily by you on one of our information forms. Business information collected by Guard 1 is primarily used to schedule PADCenter™ demos, and personal information collected by Guard 1 is used as a first step in the on-line application process. The information we collect is not sold to or shared with others except as otherwise required by law or as disclosed to you in this Privacy Policy.

As a standard practice, Guard 1 requests an e-mail address from every potential customer requesting a PADCenter™ demo and individuals completing an on-line application. We will occasionally send e-mails to follow up on PADCenter™ demo requests and on-line application submissions.

Guard 1 may also collect certain non-personal public data in the course of normal business. Examples of this non-personal data include web log information such as your web browser, operating system, pages visited, time of day, source IP address, browser type and ISP, among others. From time to time, Guard 1 may purchase personal information from outside sources. This information is used to identify potential new customers, as well as analyze the existing customer base. The information purchased from outside sources is strictly for internal use and is not sold or shared.

How We Collect Information

Guard 1 collects business and personal information that is provided voluntarily by you on one of our information forms. To fully utilize Guard 1’s services, potential customers are required to provide certain business information. Guard 1 may also collect non-personal information from all visitors to the company web site. The collection of this non-personal information is done using a variety of technologies, including log analysis, “cookies” and “web beacons.” None of our methods for collecting this information allow for the collection of personal information. The information collected is used to help tailor the visitor’s web site experience, including but not limited to meaningful information.

How We Use Your Information

Guard 1 primarily uses the business information you provide to schedule PADCenter™ demos, and information provided by an applicant is used as a first step for employment consideration. Guard 1 is constantly looking to improve our marketing and operational services. At times, Guard 1 may combine non-personal public information that is collected automatically via the internet with business information. We may also enhance or merge information with data obtained from third parties for the same purposes. This merged and combined data is for internal use only and is not shared or sold.

Except in the event of a business transfer or acquisition, Guard 1 will not share, trade or sell personal information about customers to others. When businesses acquire other businesses or sell all or substantial portions of a business, customer information generally is one of the transferred assets. If all or substantially all of Guard 1’s assets are transferred through merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or any other change of corporate control, then customer information will be one of the transferred assets. All employees, contractors and other independent companies engaged by Guard 1 to perform work that involves access to personal information are contractually required to keep the information confidential and private and are not permitted to use it in any way other than what is necessary to perform their work for Guard 1.

Data Security

Guard 1 is committed to keeping our customers’ business data and personal application information private and secure. Guard 1 works hard to take reasonable precautions to protect our customers’ business and applicants’ personal information from loss, misuse or alteration. These precautions include limiting access to such information to Guard 1 authorized individuals only. Business and personal information is destroyed once it is determined to be outdated or of no use. Guard 1 employees, contractors or agents who have access to business or personal information are required by agreement 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 Guard 1.

Policy Changes

We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time, so please check back periodically so you are familiar with our current Policy. If in the future we wish to use your information in a manner not previously disclosed, we will post the policy changes here, and if significant, Guard 1 will provide a more prominent notice to customers of these changes and provide the ability to opt out. Continued use of our web sites after receiving notice of a change in our Policy indicates your consent to the use of newly submitted information in accordance with Guard 1’s amended Privacy Policy.

By accepting this Policy, the potential customer agrees to adhere to the terms and conditions posted on the web site and contained herein. Potential customers and job applicants that do not agree with any of these terms should not use the web site or submit any personal information to Guard 1.
