American Premium Surplus respects the privacy of the businesses and professionals who use our website and services.

This Privacy Policy explains how American Premium Surplus (“American Premium Surplus,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you visit psurplus.com, create an account, subscribe to communications, request a quotation, submit materials for sale, download documents, or otherwise interact with us.

Our website is intended for business-to-business (B2B) use only and is not intended for consumer retail transactions.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information that you provide directly to us, including:

  • your name;
  • email address;
  • telephone number;
  • company name;
  • country;
  • business and product interests;
  • account information;
  • information included in quotation requests;
  • messages sent through our contact forms;
  • information relating to materials you offer for sale;
  • documents or files that you submit to us;
  • subscription and communication preferences; and
  • other information you voluntarily provide.

When you create an account, we also collect the information necessary to authenticate and maintain your account.

We do not process online payments through this website and do not collect payment-card information through the website.

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you use certain parts of the website, we may automatically collect limited technical and security-related information, such as:

  • IP address;
  • browser or device information;
  • session and authentication information;
  • login attempts;
  • timestamps;
  • security and anti-abuse events;
  • document download activity; and
  • information necessary to maintain the security and operation of the website.

We may also use analytics technologies to understand how visitors use the website and to improve its performance, content, and usability.

3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use essential cookies and similar technologies where necessary to provide features such as account authentication, security, and website functionality.

We may also use optional analytics technologies, including services such as Google Analytics, to help us understand website usage and improve our services.

Where required or appropriate, optional analytics technologies are used according to the privacy choices made available to visitors.

You may be provided with controls that allow you to accept, decline, or change your analytics preferences.

4. How We Use Information

We may use personal information to:

  • operate and maintain the website;
  • create and manage user accounts;
  • verify identities and secure accounts;
  • respond to inquiries;
  • process quotation requests;
  • evaluate supplier submissions;
  • facilitate potential business transactions;
  • provide access to protected documents;
  • communicate about available materials and business opportunities;
  • manage subscriptions and unsubscribe requests;
  • send administrative, security, account, or service-related communications;
  • detect fraud, abuse, spam, or security threats;
  • maintain business records;
  • analyze and improve our website and services;
  • comply with applicable legal obligations; and
  • protect our rights, property, systems, users, and business.

A quotation request submitted through the website is not binding by itself and does not create a contractual obligation merely by being submitted.

5. Marketing Communications

You may choose to subscribe to communications regarding available materials, offers, inventory, or other relevant business opportunities.

We may use trusted third-party service providers to assist with email communications and marketing activities.

You may unsubscribe from marketing communications using the unsubscribe mechanism provided in the communication or by contacting us.

Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily close an account or prevent us from sending necessary account, security, transactional, or administrative communications.

6. How We Share Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information.

We may share information only where reasonably necessary for legitimate business purposes, including with:

  • service providers that support hosting, email delivery, marketing, analytics, security, file scanning, or other website operations;
  • professional advisers or service providers assisting our business;
  • government authorities or other parties when disclosure is required by applicable law; or
  • parties involved in protecting our rights, preventing fraud, investigating security incidents, or enforcing our agreements.

We may disclose relevant business contact information to a supplier, buyer, or other transaction counterparty only when you ask us to facilitate a transaction, authorize the disclosure, or when disclosure is reasonably necessary to proceed with a transaction in which you are participating. We do not publicly display or automatically disclose supplier or buyer identities merely because a listing or inquiry exists.

Third-party service providers are expected to process information only as necessary to provide services on our behalf and to protect that information in accordance with applicable privacy and security requirements.

7. Supplier Submissions and Uploaded Files

If you submit information or documents relating to surplus materials, products, specifications, safety information, or other business matters, those materials may be reviewed by authorized personnel for the purpose of evaluating your submission.

Supplier attachments are not intended to be published automatically.

We may use security tools or service providers to inspect uploaded files for malicious or unsafe content.

Please do not submit personal or confidential information that is unnecessary for the purpose of your business inquiry.

8. Accounts and Security

Any eligible business visitor may create an account.

The website is intended for individuals who:

  • are at least 18 years old; and
  • are authorized to act on behalf of the business or organization they represent.

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect personal information, including access controls, password protection, session security, rate limiting, security and anti-abuse controls, and protections for restricted downloads.

However, no website, communication method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for:

  • the purposes for which it was collected;
  • legitimate business and operational needs;
  • security and fraud-prevention purposes;
  • maintaining appropriate business records; and
  • complying with applicable legal requirements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and the reason it was collected.

Some information may remain in backups or historical records for a limited period after deletion from active systems.

10. Your Account and Deletion Requests

You may request deletion of your account or personal information by contacting us at:

info@psurplus.com

We will consider and process deletion requests in accordance with applicable law and legitimate business requirements.

We may retain certain information where reasonably necessary or legally required, including for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, recordkeeping, or compliance purposes.

Depending on where you are located, applicable law may provide additional privacy rights. We will respond to valid privacy requests as required by applicable law.

11. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing information to them.

12. International Visitors and Service Providers

American Premium Surplus is based in Michigan, United States.

Information may be processed or stored in the United States or in other locations where our service providers operate.

When third-party service providers process information on our behalf, we expect them to use appropriate privacy and security protections consistent with applicable requirements.

13. Children

This website is intended for business users who are 18 years of age or older.

We do not knowingly intend to collect personal information from children.

If we become aware that information was submitted by a person under 18 in circumstances where it should not have been collected, we may delete it.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in:

  • our website;
  • our services;
  • our business practices;
  • technologies we use; or

The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.

Continued use of the website after an updated policy is published does not override any consent requirement that may apply under applicable law.
