Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 9, 2023
Kem Krest, LLC and its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively “Kem Krest,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) are committed to the protection of our customers’ and partners’ privacy and to keeping any personal information provided to us secure.
The purpose of our privacy policy (this “Privacy Policy”) is to inform you about the types of personal information we gather about you, how we may use that information, whether we disclose it to anyone, and the rights and choices you have regarding that information. The phrase “personal information” means any information from which you can be identified or are identifiable, either directly or indirectly, such as your name, address, telephone number, device and browsing information, etc.
By using our website, you agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, which is part of Kem Krest’s Terms of Service. You consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree or consent to either the terms of our Privacy Policy or the Terms of Service, please do not use our website or submit information to us.
- INFORMATION COLLECTION
Kem Krest collects the following categories of personal information, including in the preceding twelve months, when you provide it directly to us and when you access the website. This information includes both personally identifiable information and information which does not directly identify you:
- Browsing Information
- Commercial Information
- Contact Information
- Financial Information
- Social Media Data

Sensitive Information. Kem Krest does not collect, use, or process personal information through its website or services which is classified as sensitive information.
When do we collect personal information? We collect this information when you take certain actions like interacting with our website, submitting a form to contact us, and becoming one of our vendors or customers. We collect information automatically when you browse our website. Kem Krest collects information when we interact with customers and vendors at events, conferences, or through contests.
How long do we keep personal information? Kem Krest uses several criteria to determine how long we should keep categories of personal information. We keep data until you close or deactivate your account, until we no longer have a business purpose for the data, or until we no longer have an obligation to keep it.
Please understand that residual copies of the personal information can be stored in locations or formats that make complete erasure extremely difficult. The best way to ensure you control your information is to give us only the personal information that you are completely comfortable sharing with us.

Kem Krest’s process to fulfil a privacy rights request:
- We acknowledge your request. Kem Krest will first send you a message acknowledging receipt of your request.
- We ensure that you are the person making the request. In general, when you make a request Kem Krest will take steps to verify your identity. Verification steps may include asking you for personal information, such as your name, address, or other information we maintain about you. If we are unable to verify your identity with the degree of certainty required, we will not be able to respond to the request. In that case, we will notify you to explain the basis of the denial.
- Your agent can submit requests for you. You may also designate an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf. If you do so, you will be required to verify your identity by providing us with certain personal information as described above. Additionally, we will also require written proof the agent has permission to act on your behalf. We will deny your request if the agent is unable to submit proof to us that you have authorized them to act on your behalf.
- How long will it take? Kem Krest will either fulfill or reject your request as soon as we can, generally within 45 days from when we receive your request (or less, if required by law). But we may be allowed to take longer to process your request under certain circumstances. We will let you know if we expect your request will take us longer than normal to fulfill.
- YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES
Messaging and newsletter communications. You may control how you receive certain types of communications by unsubscribing within the body of the communication. Note that some messages are required, service-related messages like transaction confirmation messages, legal notices, or updates. If you no longer wish to use the website or receive optional communications then you may submit requests to delete your account and your personal information.
Cookies and web tracking technologies. You may limit the automatic collection of information by Google, including the collection of personal information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services, by opting-out of such collection.
