- Identifiers and information about you, such as name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number, employee ID or any other identifier by which you may be contacted online or offline ("personal information").

- Product and App usage information, such as geo-location information, information regarding how you use our App, information you share with the App on your phone (such as audio, photo, or video files), or information regarding how our products or tools function or are used (such as how long a tool is used, when a tool is used, and any issues that occurred while in use). Please note this only applies to some Milwaukee Tool tools, such as ONE-KEY™ Tools.
For more information about when and how we collect personal information in certain instances, see below.
Collection Of Information and Geo-Location By ONE-KEY™ Tools
ONE-KEY™ Tools send out a Bluetooth signal that can be detected by nearby devices, such as cell phones. These devices associate their geo-location to your ONE-KEY™ Tool and send that data to the ONE-KEY™ App. The ONE-KEY™ App may then send you a “Notification” with your ONE-KEY™ Tool’s serial number, tool type, and geo-location. App users may only access and view the Notifications associated with the ONE-KEY™ Tools registered to their ONE-KEY™ account.
Only authorized users of your account can see where your ONE-KEY™ Tool is. Your ONE-KEY™ Tool’s and phone’s geo-location data and history are never stored in the ONE-KEY™ Tool itself.
Information Collected Automatically and Additional Tracking Information
As you navigate through and interact with our Websites, or when you download, access and use the Apps, we may use automatic data collection technologies. An example of such technology would be the use of browser cookies, web beacons, or pixels (each, a “tag”). We use tags across a variety of marketing platforms which may include, but is not limited to, email delivery, analytics platforms and advertising. We may use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers interact with the Sites. You can read more about Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics from Google’s Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can also opt out of Google Analytics here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You can also prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this site by disabling cookies on your browser.
The type of such automatically collected information includes:
- Usage Details. When you access and use the Apps or Websites we may automatically collect certain details of your access to and use of our Websites or Apps, including traffic data, location data, tool connection and performance data, logs and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on or through the Apps or Websites.

If that ONE-KEY™ Tool is associated with the ONE-KEY™ App, we will use this information and geo-location to provide you information about your ONE-KEY™ Tool through your ONE-KEY™ App. If the Notification information and geo-location is not associated with a specific user, we will use that information for our analytical purposes, to develop and improve products and services, and internal business purposes.

Response Timing, Verification and Format
Only you, or a person or entity that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable request related to your personal information. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. In order to verify your identity, we will generally require the matching of sufficient information you provide us to the information we maintain about you in our systems. If you are using an authorized agent, please note that you will be required to verify your identity and provide written confirmation that you have authorized the agent to make a request on your behalf. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.
We endeavor to respond to most verifiable consumer requests within 45 days of receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Other Third Party Sites and Materials
From time to time, the Company may provide links to other third party websites or applications that it does not control, or the Company may include functionality that allows certain kinds of interactions between the site or application and your account on a third-party website or application. The use of this functionality may involve us to provide information to a third-party website or application. These third parties may retain any information used or provided in any such communications or activities and these third parties’ practices are not subject to our policy. We urge you to review the privacy policies posted in association with these third party websites and applications at the time you first access such websites or applications. We may not control or have access to your communications through these third parties. Further, when you use third-party sites or services, you are using their services and not our services and they, not we, are responsible for their practices. You should read the applicable third-party privacy policies before using such third-party tools on our Websites.
The Company undertakes no obligation to review or ensure enforcement or compliance with the privacy policies of any website or applications to which it links.
Retention of Personal Information
We will retain your personal information for no longer than is necessary for the purpose stated in this policy, unless otherwise extending the retention period is required or permitted by law or subject to our retention policies as may be in place from time to time. The data storage period may vary depending on the scenario, product, and service. The standards we use to determine the retention period are as follows: the time required to retain personal information to fulfill business purposes, including providing products and services; maintaining business records; controlling and improving the performance and quality of the Websites; handling possible customer queries or conducting assessments of customer complaints; whether you agree to a longer retention period; and whether the laws, contracts, and other equivalencies have special requirements for data retention.
Data Security
We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Websites and Apps, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet and mobile platforms is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted through our Websites and Apps.
