Decision Commodities Privacy Policy
We at Decision Commodities value your trust and are committed
to the responsible management, use, and protection of personal information. When
we refer to "you" we mean those individuals who have provided us with personal
information in conjunction with inquiring about, applying for, or obtaining, a
product or service from Decision Commodities to be used for personal, and/or
farm business purposes. Decision Commodities collects a certain amount of
personal and business information to service some customers and administer business. This
notice describes our policy regarding the collection, disclosure, and protection
of personal information.
Personal information, as used in this notice, means information that identifies
an individual personally and is not otherwise available to the public. It
includes personal farm and financial information.
We collect personal information to service your transactions with us and to
support our business operations. We may obtain personal information directly
from you, from your transactions with us, and from third parties.
To serve you and administer our business, we may share certain personal
financial information, only as permitted by law, with affiliates, such as our
employees, subsidiaries, and agents. We may also share personal
information, only as permitted by law, with unaffiliated third parties,
including independent agents, service providers, and business partners who help
us serve you and administer our business.
We will not sell or share your personal information with anyone for purposes
unrelated to Decision Commodities operations without offering you the
opportunity to "opt-out" or "opt-in" as required by law.
We use manual and electronic security procedures to maintain the confidentiality
and integrity of personal information in our possession and guard against its
unauthorized access. Some techniques we employ to protect information include
secured files, user authentication, encryption, firewall technology and the use
of detection software.
We are responsible for identifying information that must be protected, providing
an adequate level of protection for that data and granting access to protected
data only to individuals who must use it in the performance of their job-related
duties. Employees who violate our Privacy Policy will be subject to disciplinary
action, which may include termination.
We will continue to follow our Privacy Policy regarding personal information
even when a business relationship no longer exists between us.
