Overview

Woodhead Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively “Woodhead Industries,” “we” or “us”) is serious about protecting your privacy. We understand your concerns with regard to how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice (this “Privacy Policy”) describes what personal information we collect about you, how we collect it, how we use it, with whom we may share it, and what choices you have regarding it. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and is a part of the Terms of Use of the Woodhead Industries Web site (www.mySST.com, the “Site”). We encourage you to become familiar with the terms and conditions of both this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use. By accessing and using the Site, you agree that you have read and understand this Privacy Policy, and that you accept and consent to the privacy practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Changes to Privacy Policy

From time to time, we may change our privacy practices because of changes in relevant and applicable legal or regulatory requirements, our business practices, or in our attempts to better serve your needs and those of the industrial communications and connectivity industries. Notice of such changes to our privacy practices will be given in the manner described in the Terms of Use for the Site and a revised Privacy Policy will be posted at this location.

What Information Do We Collect? 

Woodhead Industries may collect certain information from or about you in connection with your use of the Site. For example, we may retain the content of, and metadata regarding, any correspondence you may have with us or our representatives, regardless of the mode of communication by which such correspondence was made. This information helps us to improve the Site and the products, materials and opportunities and services that we feature or describe on the Site, and to more effectively and efficiently respond to both current and future inquiries.

As with many other Web sites, the Web servers used to operate the Woodhead Industries Site may collect certain data pertaining to you and the equipment and communications method that you use to access the Internet and the Site. Without combining these data with other sources of information, they do not readily identify you. They do reveal such things as the Internet protocol (“IP”) address assigned to your computer, specific pages that you accessed on the Site, or immediately prior to visiting the Site, and the length of time you spent at the Site. The purposes for which this information is collected and used include facilitating Site operation and system administration, generating aggregate, non-identifiable statistical information, and improving the content and content delivery with regard to the Site and the features, materials, opportunities and services that we describe or make available on the Site.

We may also use “cookies” (small text files stored on your computer) to help track and customize your access and use of the Site. Cookies store and retain information that helps us recognize you when you return to the Site following a previous visit. Most popular Internet browser packages allow you to configure the browser so as not to accept cookies. However, setting your browser to reject cookies may prevent you from taking full advantage of the Site and the materials, products and services that Woodhead Industries makes available on the Site.

How Do We Use The Information That We Collect?

In addition to the uses mentioned or described above, we may use the information that we collect from or about you to improve the content, features, materials and opportunities that we make available on the Site, to notify you of changes made to the Site or new opportunities made available on or through the Site, to evaluate your needs and customize Site content delivered to you according to those needs, to send you promotional materials that you request from us, and for other legitimate and lawful business purposes of Woodhead Industries. 

What Choices Do You Have?

When corresponding with Woodhead Industries or its representatives, or when making a request for information through our Site, you choose what information to supply, what questions to pose and comments to make, whether you wish to receive further information from us, and by what method of communication such information should be delivered. 

How Do We Protect Information Collected About You?

Woodhead Industries takes commercially reasonable measures to secure and protect information transmitted via or stored on our Site. However, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee that information Site users may happen to supply will be totally secure.

Linked Sites

For your convenience, some hyperlinks may be posted on the Site that link to other Web sites not under our control. We are not responsible for, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to, the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to seek out and read the privacy policy of each Web site that you visit. In addition, should you happen to initiate a transaction on a Web site that our Site links to, even if you reached that site through our Site, the information that you submit to complete that transaction becomes subject to the privacy practices of the operator of that linked site. You should read their privacy policies to understand how they use and protect personal information that they collect about you.
