Collection of personal information
When you engage in certain activities on this site, such as registering for newsletters, downloading information or software, or entering contests, Southern States may ask you to provide certain information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities. If you elect to engage in these activities, however, Southern States may ask that you provide us personal information, such as your first and last name, mailing address (including zip code), e-mail address, employer, job title and department, telephone and facsimile numbers, and other personal identifying information. Depending upon the activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity.
When you submit personal information to Southern States on this site, you understand and agree that this information may be transferred across national boundaries and may be stored and processed in any of the countries in which Southern States and its affiliates and subsidiaries maintain offices, including without limitation, the United States. You also acknowledge that in certain countries or with respect to certain activities, the collection, transferring, storage and processing of your information may be undertaken by trusted suppliers of Southern States.
How your personal information is used
Southern States collects your information in order to record and support your participation in the activities you select.

Southern States will not sell or distribute your personal information to other companies or organizations for marketing or other promotional purposes.
Protection of your personal information
The personal information that you provide resides on a secure server that only selected Southern States personnel and contractors have access to via password.
