We, Cortland International Inc. (“Cortland,” “we,” or “us”), are committed to protecting the privacy and security of personal information and to transparency about how we use personal information (also known as personal data). This Privacy Policy sets forth our policies and practices for collecting and using personal information in connection with our website and any other services that link to this Privacy Policy (our “Services”). This Privacy Policy does not address our use of personal information outside the context of the Services.
For purposes of this Privacy Policy, we regard personal information as any information that relates to an identified or reasonably identifiable person.
Within the context of the Services, this Privacy Policy explains how we use and disclose personal information. It also discusses how you can control certain uses and disclosures of your personal information. We will update this Privacy Policy from time to time, or as our privacy practices change, to ensure it accurately describes how we use personal information. When we do so, we will update the dates above. We recommend that you review this Privacy Policy occasionally for the latest information. If we change our practices in a material way, we will provide appropriate notice to you, usually through an email or through a banner or pop-up within our Services.
If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or our use of your information, please contact our privacy office (which also serves as our Grievance Officer for purposes of privacy law compliance) using one of these methods:
- Postal mail at Cortland International, Privacy Manager, 10633 West Airport Blvd Ste 300, Stafford TX 77477
- Our website: https://www.cortlandinternational.com
When you contact us, please let us know in which country and state you reside.
1. How we use and disclose personal information
We limit the collection and processing of personal information to that which we need for our business purposes, as explained in the following table and the text that follows it:
| Categories of individuals | Categories of personal information | Purposes | Methods of collection | Categories of third-party recipients (see below) |
| All website users | General device, usage, and activity information | To provide the website
Service analysis, security, and administration |
Directly from user
Indirectly by observing users’ activities or behavior |
None |
| Website users who have not opted out of our use of analytics technologies | Detailed device, usage, and activity information
Approximate location information Pseudonymous analytics identifier |
Service analysis, security, and administration | Our analytics provider collects this information through analytics technology operating on the user’s device | Analytics providers, including Google Analytics |
| Individuals who send us inquiries or other correspondence | Sender name and email address
Contents of inquiries or other correspondence |
To respond to inquiries or other correspondence | Directly from individual | None |
In the table above, “General device, usage, and activity information” means information ordinarily logged when a user accesses the website, such as IP address, browser or device characteristics, requested pages, and timestamps. “Detailed device, usage, and activity information” means additional information collected through analytics technologies about how a user interacts with the website, such as navigation paths, referral sources, session and engagement information, and specific interactions with website content
Please be aware that we use third-party technologies for analytics purposes. As a result, our analytics provider(s) will receive personal information about you, as described in the table above.
At present, we do not collect or process personal information considered to be “Sensitive Information,” “Sensitive Personal Information,” or “special category data” under various privacy laws in connection with our Services.
2. Disclosure
In addition to the disclosures to third parties described in the table above, we may also disclose your personal information to:
- Processors/service providers. We disclose your personal information to third parties that provide services to us. We engage these third parties with contracts that require them to use your personal information only for the purpose of delivering the services for which we have engaged them and as required by law. These kinds of third parties typically provide website hosting, business, professional, administrative, or technical support functions for us.
- Legal compliance recipients. We disclose personal information to the courts, governments, law enforcement agencies, litigants, and similar recipients when required by law.
- To advance or defend against legal claims. We may also disclose personal information to the extent needed to advance or defend legal claims.
- Successors. We may disclose personal information associated with a part of our business to a buyer, potential buyer, or other successor to our business.
We also may disclose personal information to third parties with your consent or at your direction.
Because no consensus has emerged on how to process a web browser’s “do not track” signal, we do not currently take any action in response to the signal. When we detect the Global Privacy Control signal (or the use of another universal opt-out mechanism), we treat that as a request to opt out of the selling of your personal information or its use for behavioral advertising.
3. Security, quality, and retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information in our possession from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorized access, modification, or disclosure. While we make every reasonable effort to help ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, you should understand that no data storage system or transmission of data over the internet or any other public network can be guaranteed to be completely secure, accurate, complete, or current.
We also take reasonable steps so that the personal information we collect is sufficiently accurate, up-to-date, and complete for the purposes for which we process or disclose it.
We retain personal information for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which we use it, or for so long as required by law. What is necessary depends on the context and purpose of processing. We generally consider the following factors when determining how long to retain personal information:
- retention periods established under applicable law;
- industry best practices;
- whether the purpose of processing is reasonably likely to justify further processing;
- risks to individual privacy in continued processing;
- applicable data protection impact assessment;
- information systems design considerations/limitations; and
- the costs associated with continued processing, retention, and deletion.
4. International users
Please be aware that your personal information will be stored and processed in the United States, where our servers are located.
5. Children’s privacy
We are very concerned about the safety of children using the Internet. Our Products and Services are not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from those under the age of 16.
If we discover (or are informed) that we have collected personal information from a visitor under the age of 16, we will promptly delete such information.

This means that we may not deny you services or charge you different prices or rates for services or provide you with a different level or quality of services (or suggest that we will do so), in response to such a request made under California law. However, as permitted by law, we may charge different prices or rates, or provide a different level or quality of services, where that difference is reasonably related to the value provided to us by your personal information.
