Information We Collect
Our goal is to provide you with an enjoyable experience when

information is secure. You can browse the RefineryMaps.com
web site at anytime without revealing any personal
information about yourself. There are, however, areas on our
web sites where we may collect personal information from you
on a voluntary basis and for the following important
purposes: (1) to process and fulfill your requests for
products and services; (2) to solicit your opinions and
other feedback; (3) to conduct research; (4) to customize
the advertising and content you see; and, (5) to provide
anonymous reporting for internal and external purposes.
Personal information is information about you that is
personally identifiable, such as your name, address, email
address, or phone number that is not otherwise publicly
available. Demographic information is all other information
such as gender, zip code, or any information that is not
tied to your personal information.

services offered through RefineryMaps.com web site.

your existing account. Like other web sites, we also
automatically receive and record certain types of
information every time you visit us. We use "cookies" and
the other information to enhance your experience and present
you with personalized offers. Likewise, we sometimes use

effectiveness. Any information that these third parties
collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous.
How We Use The Information

we believe may be of interest to you. We also may share your
information with certain business partners in order to
process and fulfill your request. Our business partners may
contact you by telephone or e-mail in order to process and
fulfill your request. If one of our business partners
contacts you and you wish not to be contacted again by that
business partner with respect to your inquiry or
application, then you should specifically make a request to
that business partner to not contact you again. If the
business partner disregards your request and contacts you
again, please let us know immediately by sending an email to
us at [email protected] Our business partners may also
contact you to process your request by email or mail based

directly. Business partners of RefineryMaps.com who have
access to your personally identifiable information are

databases and others) that want to market products or
services to you. If one of these companies contacts you and
you wish not to be contacted again by that company, then you
should specifically make a request to that company to not
contact you again.

potential threats to the physical safety of any person,
violations of our Terms of Use, or otherwise.

should follow the opt-out instructions included in the third

the top or bottom of the email you received. However if for
