Privacy and Protection of Personal Information


The Company views personal information as a valuable way to provide a unique and memorable experience for all those the Company connects with through its products and services. This information allows us to best manage our relationships and obligations with our teams, customers, and business partners. However, the Company knows that safeguarding the personal information of its associates and third parties is critical. With that in mind, the Company is committed to complying with applicable regulations that support data privacy requirements and the protection of personal information. The Global Privacy Notice describes the type of personal information that is collected, how it is used, who it is shared with, and the rights and choices available to individuals regarding the use of the information. 

In addition, as a global company, Kohler may vary its privacy practices among the countries in which it operates to comply with local laws. To that end, the Company maintains a Global Privacy Program to protect the information entrusted to us from outside the Company and protect the Company’s intellectual property. 

The Company takes steps to ensure that personal information is collected and used solely for legitimate business purposes. The Company recognizes the importance of maintaining trust and therefore treats all personal information with the highest level of confidentiality and care. This means you must securely store information, limit access to only those who need it, and adhere strictly to applicable privacy laws and Company policies.

Think about it.
What is personal information? Any information that can be tied to a person such as name, address, email, employment history, compensation, health information, performance or disciplinary matters, and credit card information from associates, guests, vendors, and business partners.
