The following online privacy policy describes the information practices followed by The Original Granite Bracket™ with respect to its public website, including the type of information that we gather, the way we use information internally and our policy regarding sharing information with others. This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that The Original Granite Bracket™ does not own or control, or to people that The Original Granite Bracket™ does not employ or manage. Note that the federal government and technology industry have developed practical tips to help you guard against Internet fraud, secure your computer and protect your personal information. The Original Granite Bracket™ takes every reasonable precaution to protect our users’ personal information.

When our order form asks users to enter sensitive information, such as billing address, that information is encrypted and is protected with encryption software. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the web address prefix changes from http to https, confirming that the security software is active.

While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line.

Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment. We request information from the user on our secure order form where a user must provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill customer’s orders. We may store this information securely on our server.

Additional Important Info:

Steel is a natural material. When welding it together some “pull” will naturally happen. As with all construction, there are no perfect lines or angles. Though we do everything we can to make sure the brackets are as perfect as they can be without compromising the integrity of the steel’s strength, some brackets may not be a perfect line, perfect angle or perfectly level. Therefore, as in most construction, you may have to shim when installing some of the brackets. Note: By purchasing our brackets, you agree to these terms and understanding.
