Cygnus may collect information about you from a variety of sources.

Our Sites use cookies and other technologies to function effectively.

We also may collect information about your online activities on websites and connected devices over time and across third-party websites, devices, apps and other online features and services.

We may collect information about you that you provide directly, such as when you access our website, establish a user account with us, use our products, or otherwise give us your name, email address, etc. We use the information to create orders for you; deliver products and services; process payments; or communicate with you regarding your orders, our products, and our services, including promotional offers and suggested products, services or new features which may be of interest to you.

Cookies and Web Beacons

Some information may be collected through cookies. Cookies, used by most websites, are text files stored on a user's browser containing information about the user.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We will only share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Cygnus as described herein or when we otherwise have your consent to do so.

Personal Information may be disclosed in limited circumstances, including, but not limited to meeting any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request; the investigation of potential violations; addressing fraud, security, or technical issues; to protect and defend the rights or property of Cygnus; or in an emergency threatening an individual's life, health, or security. We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.

We rely on third-party service providers to perform a variety of services on our behalf. In so doing, we may need to share your Personal Information with them. We provide our service providers with only the Personal Information they need to perform their services and we require that they protect this information and not use it for any other purpose. We may supplement your personal information with information from third parties.

Some of our websites and services may be offered jointly with partners. If you register with our partner, Cygnus may also receive your Personal Information from them, and Cygnus may share your Personal Information with our partners for these joint offerings. You should also review the partner's privacy policy, which may have different terms.

Information that we collect from our users, including Personal Information, is considered to be a business asset. Thus, if we are acquired by a third party as a result of a transaction, such as a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, some or all of our assets, including your Personal Information, may be disclosed or transferred to a third party acquirer in connection with the transaction.

Security

We are committed to keeping Personal Information secure, and have implemented generally accepted industry standards of technical, administrative, and physical procedures to protect Personal Information. When we provide your Personal Information to controllers or processors, including service providers, we require those companies to protect the information and not to use the information for any other purpose.

Nevertheless, although we have tried to create a secure and reliable website and products, the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted to or from this website or our products cannot be guaranteed. We urge you to exercise caution when conveying Personal Information over the Internet. When disclosing any Personal Information, you should remain mindful that such information might be accessible by the public and, consequently, may be collected and used by others without your consent. You should also recognize that your use of the Internet and this website is solely at your own risk.
