These service providers may include providers of cloud hosting, website analytics, customer relationship management, recruiting systems, marketing automation, cybersecurity, communications, and information-technology services.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We and our service providers use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing activities on the Website. These technologies may include cookies, web beacons, pixels, tags, analytics tools, session tracking technologies, and software development kits.
We may use these technologies to:
- Maintain Website functionality and remember your preferences
- Analyze Website traffic and usage trends
- Improve user experience
- Support marketing, advertising, and remarketing activities
- Measure the effectiveness of our communications and campaigns
Cookies generally fall into the following categories: (i) strictly necessary cookies that are required for the Website to function; (ii) functional cookies that remember your preferences; (iii) analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the Website; and (iv) advertising and targeting cookies that may be used by us or our partners to deliver and measure advertising.
You can control cookies through your browser settings and other tools. Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent for non-essential cookies through a cookie consent tool on the Website. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the Website.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control Signals
Some web browsers may transmit "Do Not Track" signals to websites. Because there is not yet a universally accepted standard for responding to such signals, the Website may not currently respond to browser-based Do Not Track signals. Where required by applicable law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act, we will treat Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising for the browser or device transmitting the signal.

International Data Transfers
Cormint is headquartered in the United States. By using the Website or providing information to us, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer, processing, and storage of your information in the United States and other jurisdictions where we or our service providers operate. These jurisdictions may have data protection laws that differ from the laws of your country of residence. Where required by applicable law, we implement safeguards designed to protect personal information during such transfers.
Data Security
We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no Internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and protect our legal rights. Retention periods depend on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected. Examples include: contact form submissions, typically retained for up to 24 months; recruiting and applicant data, retained in accordance with applicable employment and recordkeeping requirements; cookie data, retained for the periods described in our cookie tool; and backups, retained in accordance with our backup and disaster-recovery schedule.
