WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DOES FRANKFURT KURNIT COLLECT?

  • In general, you do not have to provide personally identifiable information (“PII”) to use our Web site.
  • However, certain services which you may subscribe for through our Web site may require you to provide PII, such as your name, address, e-mail address and other contact information. (Additionally, if you choose to correspond with us through e-mail, we may retain the content of your e-mail messages together with your e-mail address and our responses.)
  • Because it is not possible to anticipate every conceivable context in which information might be provided to us through our Web site or via e-mail, we can provide no assurance that any PII you choose to provide to us via e-mail will be maintained as private. You should not send private or confidential information to us by e-mail.

We also track the number of first-time users and the number of repeat users, and we may also aggregate information relating to your and other users' traffic patterns, for example, to evaluate what portions of our Web site are more popular than others and to determine how many times particular pages of the Web site were accessed in aggregate.
