Updated December 15, 2021

This Privacy Policy applies to the website swltic.com, and any other sites owned and operated by Blueprint Holding Co., Inc. or its affiliated companies (“Blueprint”). This Privacy Policy describes how Blueprint collects, uses, and shares your personal information and your choices with respect to your personal information.

Your privacy is important to us. Personal information is any information about you that can be used to identify you. This includes information about you as a person (such as name, address, and date of birth), your devices, payment details, and information about how you use a website or online service.

By providing us any information or accessing our website or services, individuals agree to the following terms and conditions as final and binding. If you do not want us to collect any information about you, you can simply not utilize any of the website or our services or otherwise supply personal information. Your choice not to provide information may, however, prevent you from receiving our services or using our websites.

In the event our site contains links to third-party sites and services, those sites and services have their own privacy policies. After following a link to any third-party content, you should read their posted privacy policy information about how they collect and use personal information. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any of your activities after you leave our site. We have no control over the content and policies of those sites and are not responsible or liable for third-party privacy practices.

Use of Cookies

We use “cookies” to collect information about you and your activity across our site. A cookie is a small piece of data that our website stores on your computer, and accesses each time you visit, so we can understand how you use our site. This helps us serve you content based on preferences you have specified.

Please refer to our Cookie Policy for more information.

Advertisements appearing on any part of our sites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy and the Cookie Policy cover the use of cookies by Blueprint and do not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers or third parties.

International Visitors

The website is intended for use in the United States, and we do not target or direct our services to users in the European Union or otherwise outside of the United States. If you are visiting from the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from United States laws, please note that you are transferring information about you, including personal information, to a country and jurisdiction that does not have the same data protection laws as the country where you are located, and you consent to the transfer of information about you, including your personal information, to the United States and consent to the use and disclosure of information about you, including your personal information, as described in this Privacy Policy.

Business Transfers

If we or our assets are acquired, or in the unlikely event that we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, we would include data, including your personal information, among the assets transferred to any parties who acquire us. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any parties who acquire us may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, continue to use your personal information according to this policy, which they will be required to assume as it is the basis for any ownership or use rights we have over such information.

Changes to This Policy

At our discretion, we may change our Privacy Policy to reflect updates to our business processes, current acceptable practices, or legislative or regulatory changes. If we decide to change this Privacy Policy, we will post the updated version here.

If the changes are significant, or if required by applicable law, we will contact you (based on your selected preferences for communications from us) with the new details and links to the updated or changed policy.

If required by law, we will get your permission or give you the opportunity to opt in to or opt out of, as applicable, any new uses of your personal information.
