Information Collection and Use
Green Point Marine Construction, INC. is the sole owner of the
information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or
rent this information to others in ways different from what is
disclosed in this statement. We will never share any personally
identifiable information from website users unless permission for
the dissemination of such information is voluntarily given by a
user.
Anonymous Information
Anonymous click stream information is collected for every
visitor to this site. This includes pages viewed, date and time and
browser type. IP numbers are not stored, but are temporarily used
to determine domain type and in some cases geographic region. There
is no association between this information and a visitor’s
identity.
Registration
In order to use the personalized resources of this website, a
user must first complete the registration form to become a member
of Green Point Marine Construction, INC. During registration a user
is required to give their contact information (such as name and
e-mail address). This information is used to contact the user about
the services on our site for which they have expressed interest. It
is optional for the user to provide demographic information or
unique identifiers (such as address), but is encouraged so we can
provide a more personalized experience on our site.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive
containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no
way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our
site. The cookies extract no personal information nor provide us
with a method to identify or contact you. Once the user closes
his/her browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by
setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a
password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If
a user rejects the cookie, they may still use our site. The only
drawback to this is that the user will be limited in some areas of
our site. For example, the user will not be able to participate in
any of our Sweepstakes, or receive our Newsletter, that take place
from time to time. Cookies can also enable us to track and target
the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our
site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site,
track user movement, and gather broad demographic information for
aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to any personally
identifiable information.
Sharing
We will share aggregated demographic information with our
partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal
information that can identify any individual person.
We may partner with other parties to provide specific services.
What the user signs up for these services, we will share contact
information that is necessary for the third party to provide these
services. These partners are not allowed to use personally
identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these
services. Green Point Marine Construction INC. does not sell,
trade, or rent your personal information to others. We may choose
to do so in the future with trustworthy third parties, but you can
tell us not to by sending an e-mail message to us. (If you use more
than one e-mail address to shop with us, send this message from
each e-mail account you use.) Green Point Marine Construction INC.
may provide aggregate statistics about our customers, sales,
traffic patterns, and related site information to reputable
third-party vendors, but these statistics will include no
personally identifying information. We may release account
information when we believe, in good faith, that such release is
reasonably necessary to (i) comply with the law, (ii) enforce or
apply the terms of any of our user agreements or (iii) protect the
rights, property or safety of Green Point Marine Construction INC.,
our users, or others.
Links
This website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that
Green Point Marine Construction INC. is not responsible for the
privacy practices of any other sites. We encourage our users to be
aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements
of each and every website that collects personally identifiable
information. Our privacy statement applies solely to information
collected by this website.
Surveys and Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from users via
surveys, contests or sweepstakes and other give-a-ways.
Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary
and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this
information. Information requested may include contact information
(such as name and shipping address), and demographic information
(such as age and household income). Contact information will be
used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information
will be used only for purposes of monitoring or improving the use
and customer satisfaction of this site.
Tell-A-Friend
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a
friend about our site, we ask them for the friend’s name and e-mail
address. We will automatically send the friend a one-time e-mail
inviting them to visit the site. We store this information for the
sole purpose of sending this one-time e-mail. The friend may
contact us at support@greenpointmarine.com to request the removal
of this information from our database.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users’
information. When users submit sensitive information via the
website, your information is protected both online and off-line.
When we ask users to enter sensitive personal information, such as
address and/or credit card number, that information is encrypted
and is protected with the best encryption software in the
industry-SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the
lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator
and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, and opposed to
unlocked, or open, when you are just “surfing”.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information
online, we also do everything in our power to protect user
information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the
sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our
offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a
specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service
representative) are granted access to personally identifiable
information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our
security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers on which we
store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure
environment, behind a locked cage. If you have any questions about
the security at our website, you can send an e-mail to
support@greenpointmarine.com.
Special Offers
We send all new members a welcoming e-mail to verify password
and username. Established members will occasionally receive
information on products, services, special deals and a newsletter.
Out of respect for the privacy of our users we clearly present the
option to not receive these types of communications. Please see our
choice and opt-out below.
Site and Service Updates
We also send the user site and service announcements and
updates. Members are not able to unsubscribe from service
announcements, which contain important information about the
service, unless they cancel their Green Point Marine Construction
INC. membership. We communicate with the user to provide requested
services with respect to issues relation to their membership via
e-mail, postal, service, or phone.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as
zip code), or if a user no longer desires our personalized
services, we will provide a way to correct, update or remove that
user’s personal data provided to us. This can usually be done at
the member information page or by e-mailing our Customer Support at
support@greenpointmarine.com.
Choice/Opt-Out
Our users are given the opportunity to “opt-out” of having their
information used for purposes not directly related to our site at
the point where we ask for the information. Users who no longer
wish to receive our newsletter or promotional materials from our
partners may opt-out of receiving these communications by replying
to unsubscribe in the subject line in the e-mail or e-mail us at
support@greenpointmarine.com.
Consent and Notification of Changes

this information by Green Point Marine Construction, Inc. If we
decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on
this page so that you are always aware of what information we
collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose
it.
Any questions or comments about our Privacy Policy should be
