Thank you for visiting the Web site of Rheem Manufacturing Company ("Rheem"). This Privacy Policy contains information about Rheem's commitment to your privacy.

Note: This Privacy Policy applies only to Web sites operated or controlled by Rheem, and not to Rheem's offline practices. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the Web sites of other companies, individuals, or organizations to which we may provide hyperlinks or that Rheem may be affiliated with but are not directly under Rheem's operation or control. These Web sites may have different policies relating to your privacy and the information they collect about you. Visitors should consult the privacy policies of such Web sites, as Rheem has no control over information that is submitted to, or collected by, third parties.

What information does Rheem collect from visitors to its Web sites? How does Rheem use that information?

Our Web site collects two kinds of information from you: (1) personal information that you submit to us; and (2) non-personal information, such as the pages you visited on our Web site and your IP address.

1. Personally Identifiable Information: We collect and use personally identifiable information about you when you submit feedback, questions, or requests for information about Rheem's products and services, apply for a job or make a purchase.

A "referrer" is information your web browser passes along to the Rheem web server that references the URL of the Web site from which you came. An "IP Address" is a number used by computers on a network to identify your computer so that data can be transmitted to you. An "environmental variable" may include, among other things, the domain from which you access the Internet, the time you accessed our Web site, the type of web browser and operating system or platform used, the Internet address or the Web site you left to visit our Web site, the pages you visit while at our site, and the Internet address of the Web site you then visit. Rheem may collect IP Address information in order to administer our Web site and to gather broad demographic information.
3.

Rheem may also share personally and non-personally identifiable information about you with third parties that help manage our Web site or provide data processing, order fulfillment, or shipping services, or that provide other services on our behalf.

As Rheem continues to develop its business, we may enter into transactions to sell our assets or to buy or sell subsidiaries or business units. As part of these transactions, personal information covered by this Privacy Policy may be one of the transferred assets.

Finally, Rheem reserves the right to disclose personal and non-personal information about you if Rheem reasonably believes it is required to do so by law, including court order, to protect Rheem or the rights of others, or to reduce the risk of credit or other kind of fraud.
