Cookies. Saarmfg uses cookies, which are small data files created by a website server and stored by your browser, that may be used to recognize users of the Website when they return to the Website, collect usage information and remember users’ preferences. We use cookies to keep track of and enhance certain user activities on our Website such as logging into your account, making a purchase and other user-specific features.

See “Interest-Based Behavioral Advertising” below for more information. In addition, your opt-out choices regarding cookies are described in “Opt-Out Choices” below.
Interest-Based Behavioral Advertising. Saarmfg advertisements are shown on third party websites, including Google. Saarmfg may use technologies such as cookies and web beacons (also known as action tags, pixels, or transparent GIF files) to help manage online advertising. These technologies are provided by one or more third party vendors and enable such vendors to recognize a unique cookie placed by us (when you accessed the Website) or by such vendors, or by another advertiser who works with such vendors. These technologies allow us to learn which advertisements bring users to the Website. They also allow us to collect information about your online activities over time and across third party websites so we can manage advertising effectiveness and provide you with online advertisements, including advertisements on the websites of third parties not affiliated with Saarmfg, more likely to be of interest to you. Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads to you based on your past visits to the Website. With this technology, the information that we collect, process and share is aggregated information or de-identified information that does not identify you individually to other parties.

Cookies. ’You may block or restrict cookies on your computer or device or purge them from your browser by adjusting your web browser preferences. You should consult the operating instructions that apply to your browser or your mobile device’s user guide for instructions on how to configure your setting to meet your preferences. Because cookies allow you to take advantage of some features or functions of the Website, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you may not be able to use some features of the Website. In addition, disabling cookies may invalidate opt-outs that rely on cookies, such as web analytics or targeted advertising opt-outs.

Saarmfg
Re: Website Privacy Policy
4994 West 12th Avenue, Hialeah, Florida, 33012
Please include your name, address, and/or email address when you contact us.
You must describe the information in sufficient detail to allow us to locate that information in our records. We may not fulfill a request to change information if we believe the change would violate the law or a legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect. Additionally, some residual information may remain in back-ups, cached, archived or other historical databases. We reserve the right to refuse to modify information if we request proof of identity or authority and the appropriate proof of identity or authority is not provided to us. We do not have the ability to modify or remove third-party records.
Personal Information Removal
You may request that your personal information in your account be deleted under certain circumstances, provided Saarmfg does not have a legitimate or lawful purpose to retain it or is otherwise required by law to retain it. You may make your request by emailing our support team at: info@saarmfg.com. We may ask you to provide additional information in order to verify your identity before proceeding with your request. Such additional information will be used only for identity verification and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. If such additional information is required and we are unable to contact you with the contact information you have provided, we may be unable to respond to your request. We will work to respond to your request within 45 days from the date of receipt of your request or of all information necessary to proceed with processing the request, as applicable. If you are an individual representing a Federal Firearms License Dealer doing business with Saarmfg, Inc., you may contact your account executive who will direct your request related to your personal information to our support team.
Security
We operate secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems, which are periodically reviewed and enhanced. We do not, however, guarantee that unauthorized or inadvertent disclosure will never occur.
The importance of security for all personally identifiable information associated with our users is of utmost concern to us. The personally identifiable information you provide to us when you establish an on-line account is protected in several ways. Access by you to your personally identifiable information is available through a password and unique customer ID selected by you. This password is encrypted. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. In addition, your personally identifiable information, whether provided to establish your on-line account or through other Services resides on a secure server that only selected Saarmfg, personnel and contractors have access to via password. We encrypt your personally identifiable information and thereby prevent unauthorized parties from viewing such information when it is transmitted to us.
In order to most efficiently serve you, credit card transactions and order fulfillment are handled by established third party banking, processing agents and distribution institutions. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your credit card or other payment information and to process and ship your order.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. You acknowledge that there are security and privacy limitations of the Internet beyond our control, that the security, integrity and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through the Website cannot be guaranteed, and any such information and data may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party.

Any personal information we collect and use under these circumstances will only be used within the context of your role or former role acting in such capacity.
There are various other exceptions to the data rights afforded under the CCPA.

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
In addition to your ‘right to know’ and ‘right to delete’ personal information collected about you, California resident consumers have the right to opt-out of the “sale” of their personal information, as such term is defined in the CCPA.

Authorized Agents
A California resident consumer can designate an authorized agent to make a request under the CCPA on the consumer’s behalf. An authorized agent is an individual or a business entity registered with the California Secretary of State that a consumer has authorized to act on his or her behalf. If an authorized agent submits a request under the CCPA on behalf of a California resident consumer, we may require (a) documentation verifying authorization by the consumer to make the request, and (b) that the consumer on whose behalf the request is being made verify his or her identity directly with Saarmfg.
