We collect information that identifies, relates to, describes, or could reasonably be linked with a particular consumer or household.

• Professional or Employment-Related Information: Employer name, job title, and business contact information for corporate accounts.
• Telemetry and Fleet Operations Data: GPS location, speed, routing, and operational metrics of our delivery vehicles (such as industrial and packaged gas semi-tractors) and cryogenic equipment service vehicles. Note: This data is collected to manage logistics, equipment safety, and delivery verification, and is not used to track individual consumer behavior.

2. How We Collect Personal Information

We collect personal information through the following methods:

• Directly From You: When you request quotes, purchase equipment, set up gas delivery services, subscribe to newsletters, or contact customer support.
• Automatically From Your Devices: Through cookies, web beacons, and tracking technologies when you interact with our websites or client portals.
• From Our Fleet and Equipment Infrastructure: Automatically via telematics, GPS systems, and onboard diagnostic devices installed on our cryogenic service vehicles and gas transport semi-tractors.
• From Third Parties: Commercial databases, credit bureaus (for business credit checks), and joint marketing partners.

3. Use of Personal Information

We use the collected personal information for the following business and commercial purposes:

• Fulfilling orders, processing payments, and delivering cryogenic equipment and industrial gases.
• Managing and servicing your customer account and providing technical support.
• Optimizing delivery routes, monitoring logistics safety, and verifying the arrival of gas semi-tractors and cryogenic service technicians via fleet telematics.
• Complying with industrial safety regulations, tracking gas cylinder inventory, and managing logistics.
• Sending transactional updates, administrative notices, and promotional marketing communications (where permitted by law).
• Protecting against fraudulent, unauthorized, or illegal activity.
• Complying with legal, regulatory, and tax obligations (such as Department of Transportation (DOT) compliance).

4. Sharing and Disclosure of Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose your information to third parties for operational business purposes:

• Subsidiaries and Affiliates: Each of our subsidiaries operates on separate IT systems to securely isolate local customer databases. However, we may securely transfer necessary operational data between systems when required to streamline corporate administrative oversight, financial reporting, or unified customer service.
• Service Providers: Third-party vendors who provide IT hosting, payment processing, shipping and logistics, and legal or accounting services.
• Regulatory and Government Authorities: To comply with state and federal laws (such as OSHA, DOT, or EPA regulations regarding gas transport) or to respond to valid legal requests.

5. European Union (EU) Disclosures (GDPR Compliance)

For individuals located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the EU, the following provisions apply:

• Legal Basis for Processing: We process your personal data based on contractual necessity (to fulfill equipment or gas orders), legal obligations, our legitimate business interests (e.g., direct marketing and analytics), or your explicit consent.
• International Data Transfers: Because we are a US-based entity, your data will be transferred to and stored in the United States. We utilize approved Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms to ensure your data receives an equivalent level of protection.
• Your Rights: You have the right to access, correct, or erase your data; the right to restrict or object to certain processing activities; the right to data portability; and the right to withdraw consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a local EU Supervisory Authority.

6. California Consumer Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA Compliance)

For residents of California, you possess specific rights regarding your personal information:

• Right to Know: You can request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources, and the business purpose for collecting it.
• Right to Delete: You can request the deletion of personal information collected from you, subject to certain legal exceptions (such as maintaining active commercial accounts or safety monitoring).
• Right to Correct: You can request that we correct inaccurate personal information that we maintain about you.
• Right to Opt-Out of Sharing/Targeted Advertising: We do not sell your data, nor do we share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
• Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA/CPRA rights.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, including satisfying any legal, accounting, safety tracking, or reporting requirements. Gas cylinder tracking and industrial equipment maintenance records may be retained for extended periods to satisfy liability and regulatory standards within their respective standalone IT systems.

8. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard your personal data against unauthorized access, loss, or alteration. Because our subsidiaries utilize separate IT infrastructure, we deploy tailored security controls across each environment to safeguard customer data isolation. However, no transmission method over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to update this policy at any time. The “Last Updated” date at the bottom of this page will indicate when changes were last made. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
