Privacy Policy

Last Revised: September 6, 2017

This Privacy Policy describes how Stone and Steel ("S&S") treats information that S&S collects and receives from you through www.stoneandsteel.com (the "Site") and through other aspects of Stone and Steel's business, including offline. This Privacy Policy together with the Terms of Use govern your use of the Site.

1. Acceptance of Privacy Policy

Each time you access, use, or browse the Site or provide personal information to S&S offline, you signify your acceptance of the then-current Privacy Policy. If you do not accept this Privacy Policy, you are not authorized to provide information to S&S or use the Site and must discontinue use of the Site immediately. If you provide your personal information to S&S offline, the then-current Privacy Policy applies to S&S's collection and use of your information.

Should the Privacy Policy be materially revised, S&S will post the changes on the Site and the new Privacy Policy will be effective immediately upon posting and will apply only to information collected thereafter. You can determine when the Privacy Policy was last revised by referring to the "Last Revised" legend at the top of this page.
