Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Kessel Industries Inc. (“Kessel,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, retains and protects personal information in connection with this website and related business communications.
This website is intended primarily to provide information about Kessel and to facilitate business inquiries. It does not offer online purchasing or payment processing.
By accessing or using this website, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy. Where applicable law requires consent for a particular activity, including the use of certain non-essential cookies, Kessel or its website-service provider will request that consent separately.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when you submit a contact form, send us an email, telephone us or otherwise communicate with us. Such information may include your name, company name, job title, email address, telephone number, country or market, the nature of your inquiry, product requirements, estimated quantities, delivery destination and any other information included in your message or related communications.
If you communicate with Kessel concerning a potential or existing transaction, we may also receive and maintain ordinary business records associated with that communication. Depending on the matter, these records may include requests for quotations, specifications, quotations, purchase orders, shipping documents, invoices, delivery information and payment-status communications.
The website and its service providers may automatically collect limited technical and usage information when you visit the site. This information may include your Internet Protocol address, browser type, device type, operating system, language settings, referring and exit pages, approximate location derived from an IP address, pages viewed, session dates and times, and information concerning your interaction with the website.
Wix states that its platform may collect information supplied by visitors as well as technical and usage information associated with access to Wix-hosted services.
Kessel does not intend to collect Social Security numbers, government identification numbers, account passwords, complete payment-card information, medical information, biometric information or other highly sensitive personal information through this website. Please do not include such information in an initial inquiry.
2. How We Use Personal Information
Kessel may use personal information to receive, review and respond to inquiries; identify the person and company making an inquiry; communicate concerning products, distribution, representation or other potential business matters; determine whether an inquiry should be referred to an appropriate supplier, manufacturer, buyer or other business contact; prepare or coordinate quotations and commercial communications; manage existing or prospective business relationships; maintain appropriate business and correspondence records; protect the website and related systems; investigate misuse, fraud or security concerns; comply with legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and recordkeeping obligations; and establish, exercise or defend legal rights.
Kessel does not presently use information submitted through the website to create consumer profiles, make decisions based solely on automated processing or conduct an unrelated mass-marketing program.
3. Business Inquiries and Commercial Referrals
Because Kessel conducts international trading, distribution and sales-representation activities, responding to an inquiry may require communication with an appropriate manufacturer, supplier, distributor, buyer, freight or logistics contact, professional adviser or other commercial participant.
When reasonably necessary to evaluate or respond to an inquiry, Kessel may disclose relevant contact information and business details to such a party. Kessel will seek to limit the disclosure to information reasonably appropriate for the inquiry or contemplated transaction.
Submission of an inquiry does not require Kessel or any third party to respond, provide a quotation, supply or purchase a product, provide representation, or enter into a transaction or other business relationship.
4. Cookies and Similar Technologies
This website may use cookies and similar technologies provided by Wix or other service providers. Cookies are small data files stored on a visitor’s browser or device.
Certain cookies may be necessary for website security, fraud prevention, network management, page rendering, session management and other essential functionality. Wix identifies several cookies associated with security, system stability, rendering, attack detection and platform efficiency.
Additional cookies may be used if Kessel enables analytics, embedded content, advertising tools or third-party applications. The precise cookies used may therefore change when website functionality is added, removed or reconfigured.
Where required by applicable law, visitors will be provided with a cookie notice or consent tool through which they may accept or reject non-essential cookies. Wix provides privacy tools that can block non-essential cookies, record visitor choices and permit certain data-sharing controls.
Visitors may also control cookies through their browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect the operation or availability of certain website features.
5. How We Disclose Personal Information
Kessel may disclose personal information to Wix and other providers that support the hosting, operation, maintenance, security, communication and administration of the website.
Kessel may also disclose information to email and communications providers, including the provider used for Kessel’s domain-based business email; to manufacturers, suppliers, buyers and other relevant commercial contacts where reasonably necessary to address an inquiry; to accountants, attorneys, insurers and other professional advisers; and to governmental, regulatory, judicial or law-enforcement authorities where disclosure is required or permitted by applicable law.
Information may also be disclosed where Kessel reasonably believes that doing so is necessary to protect its rights, property or safety; investigate fraud, misuse or security incidents; enforce applicable agreements; or protect another person or organization.
If Kessel undergoes a merger, reorganization, financing, sale of assets, transfer of operations or similar corporate transaction, relevant information may be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable legal requirements.
Kessel does not sell or rent personal information in exchange for money. Kessel also does not disclose personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as part of its current website activities.
6. Wix and Other Service Providers
This website is hosted using services provided by Wix.com Ltd. and its affiliates. Information submitted through the website, together with related technical and usage data, may be processed through Wix’s hosting infrastructure, databases, applications and service providers.
Wix maintains its own privacy policy governing information it processes in connection with its platform and services. Wix’s policy also recognizes that it may process information concerning visitors to its customers’ websites on behalf of those customers.
Kessel may use additional service providers for business email, document storage, security, analytics or communications. These providers process information according to their own terms, privacy notices and contractual obligations.
7. International Processing and Transfers
Kessel operates in connection with international markets, and its website and communications providers may process or store information in the United States and other countries.
Information associated with an international business inquiry may also be communicated to a relevant supplier, manufacturer, buyer or service provider located outside the visitor’s country. The privacy and data-protection laws of those countries may differ from the laws of the visitor’s jurisdiction.
Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer, Kessel will seek to use an appropriate legal mechanism or other permitted basis for the transfer.
8. Legal Bases for Processing
Where applicable law requires Kessel to identify a legal basis for processing personal information, the relevant basis will depend on the circumstances.
Kessel may process information because doing so is necessary to respond to a request made by the individual, to take steps relating to a possible business transaction, to perform or administer an existing business relationship, to comply with a legal obligation, or to pursue legitimate interests such as responding to business inquiries, maintaining commercial records, protecting the website and managing business communications.
Kessel may also rely on consent where consent is legally required or otherwise appropriate. If processing is based on consent, the individual may withdraw that consent, subject to applicable law and without affecting processing that occurred before withdrawal.
The GDPR recognizes several possible legal bases, including consent, performance of a contract, legal obligations and legitimate interests. The proper basis depends on the particular processing activity.
9. Retention of Personal Information
Kessel retains personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
The applicable retention period may depend on the nature of the inquiry, whether a business relationship or transaction develops, the duration of any commercial relationship, the need to preserve correspondence or transaction records, applicable limitation periods, and legal, tax, accounting, insurance or compliance requirements.
An inquiry that does not result in further business may be retained for a reasonable period to document the communication and permit appropriate follow-up. Records associated with completed, ongoing or contemplated transactions may be retained for a longer period where reasonably necessary for business or legal purposes.
When information is no longer reasonably required, Kessel may delete it, anonymize it or retain it in a restricted archive where continued retention is required or permitted by law.
10. Security
Kessel takes reasonable administrative, technical and organizational measures appropriate to the nature of the information it maintains. Such measures may include limiting access, using reputable service providers, protecting account credentials, enabling appropriate authentication controls, maintaining software and platform security, and reviewing access when it is no longer required.
The New York SHIELD Act requires covered businesses maintaining qualifying private information to implement reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards appropriate to their operations.
No method of electronic transmission, internet communication or data storage is completely secure. Kessel therefore cannot guarantee that information transmitted to or maintained through the website will never be accessed, disclosed, altered, lost or destroyed without authorization.
Visitors should avoid sending sensitive or confidential information through an ordinary website contact form or unencrypted email unless a secure method of transmission has been arranged.
11. Privacy Rights and Requests
Depending on the individual’s location and applicable law, the individual may have the right to request information concerning personal information held by Kessel, obtain access to that information, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion, restrict or object to certain processing, withdraw consent, or request a portable copy of information provided to Kessel.
These rights are not absolute. Kessel may retain or continue processing information where permitted or required by law, including for legal compliance, recordkeeping, contractual administration, fraud prevention, security, or the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
The GDPR, where applicable, recognizes rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and data portability.
A person wishing to make a privacy request should contact Kessel using the information below and describe the request with sufficient detail. Kessel may seek reasonable information to verify the requester’s identity and authority before responding.
An individual may also have the right to submit a complaint to the competent privacy or data-protection authority in the individual’s jurisdiction.
12. Children’s Privacy
This website is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed to children under 13 years of age.
Kessel does not knowingly use the website to solicit or collect personal information from children under 13. If Kessel learns that such information has been submitted, it will take reasonable steps to delete it, subject to applicable law.
13. Third-Party Websites
This website may contain links to websites operated by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties. Kessel does not control the privacy, security or data-handling practices of those websites.
Visitors who follow a third-party link should review the privacy policy and terms applicable to that website. This Privacy Policy applies only to information processed by or on behalf of Kessel and does not govern an independent third party’s handling of information.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
Kessel may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the website, its business activities, service providers, data practices or applicable law.
A revised policy will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Where applicable law requires additional notice or consent for a material change, Kessel will provide such notice or obtain such consent as required.
