Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Personal Information

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the Personal Information you provide us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your Personal Information:

  • Tracking Technologies and Advertising. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies. You can also choose to disable, via our cookie preference manager on our Website, certain non-essential cookies such as those used for analytics and marketing. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Website may then be inaccessible or not function properly.

We use Google Analytics to help collect and analyze certain pseudonymous Personal Information about how a user interacts with a webpage to analyze user engagement. In addition to disabling non-essential cookies as described above, you may opt out of the use of cookies by Google Analytics here.

We may use Google Ads to display personalized advertisements to our users. Google Ads utilizes cookies and similar technologies to track your activity on our website and other online platforms. This allows us to show ads tailored to your interests and preferences. Google may collect and process data such as your IP address, browser type, and activity on our Website. This data may be shared with Google to improve ad targeting.

Please note that if you unsubscribe from our marketing communications, you will still receive administrative messages relating to the functionality of Zircon products or services you use.
  • Transfer of Personal Information to the United States of America

We operate globally, which means that your Personal Information may be transferred to, processed, and stored in countries outside of your home jurisdiction. These countries may not have the same data protection laws as your country; however, we are committed to safeguarding your Personal information and will implement appropriate solutions to ensure that your Personal Information remains protected in compliance with applicable laws. When transferring Personal Information outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or other regions with strict data protection laws, we rely on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or the UK government to ensure an appropriate level of data protection.  Also where required, we seek your explicit consent before transferring data or ensure the transfer is necessary for contract fulfillment or legal compliance.

By clicking the consent button on the cookie preference manager on the Website or on our Apps, you have indicated your explicit consent to such transfer and processing of your Personal Information. If you do not accept such a transfer, please stop using our Website or our Apps.

Security

Zircon uses physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your Personal Information against loss or unauthorized access, use, modification, or deletion. However, no security program is 100% secure, and thus we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your Personal Information.

Children’s Privacy

The Website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and Zircon does not knowingly collect personal or other information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are under 13, do not use or provide any Personal Information on the Website or through any features of any product we offer, or make any purchases through the Website. If we learn we have collected or received Personal Information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that Personal Information.
