Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 3, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how MaterialHandling.com, owned and operated by Premier Handling Solutions, Inc. (1415 Davis Rd, Elgin, IL 60123), collects, uses, shares, and protects your information when you use our website, place orders, request quotes, or contact us.

Information We Collect

Information you provide

  • Order & account information: name, company, email, phone, billing and shipping addresses, order history, tax-exemption certificates, and credit application details you submit.
  • Quote & contact requests: the details you submit in quote forms, application surveys, chat messages, and emails.
  • Newsletter signups: your email address.

Information collected automatically

  • Usage data: pages viewed, products viewed, searches, referring URLs, IP address, browser and device type.
  • Cart activity: we record items added to your cart, and if you begin checkout and provide an email but don't finish, we may send you a reminder about your cart (with an opt-out link).
  • Cookies: see our Cookie Policy for details on the cookies we use (session, cart, and analytics cookies).

Payment information

We do not collect or store card, bank, or crypto payment credentials. Payments are processed by Stripe, Inc.; your payment details go directly from your browser to Stripe. See Stripe's Privacy Policy. Financing applications go directly to Affirm/Klarna via Stripe and are governed by their privacy policies.

How We Use Your Information

  • Process and fulfill orders, arrange freight, and provide order updates.
  • Respond to quotes, product questions, warranty claims, and support requests.
  • Calculate sales tax and maintain tax-exemption records (we use an automated tax-calculation service to determine the correct rate for your ship-to address).
  • Send transactional emails (order confirmation, shipping notices, RGA instructions) and — only with your signup or an existing customer relationship — marketing emails you can unsubscribe from at any time.
  • Remind you about items left in your cart.
  • Improve our catalog, site performance, and product recommendations.
  • Prevent fraud and enforce our Terms of Sale.

Who We Share Information With

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who need it to serve you:

Data Retention

We retain order and invoice records as required for tax, accounting, and warranty purposes (typically 7 years). Quote and inquiry records are kept while relevant to serving you. You may request deletion of data we are not legally required to keep.

Your Rights & Choices

  • Email marketing: unsubscribe via the link in any marketing email; transactional emails about your orders will still be sent.
  • Access / correction / deletion: email [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days. California residents may exercise CCPA/CPRA rights (know, delete, correct, opt out of sale/share — we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising) and will not be discriminated against for doing so. Residents of other states with privacy laws (VA, CO, CT, UT, TX, etc.) may exercise equivalent rights.
  • Cookies: manage via your browser; see the Cookie Policy.

Security

All traffic is encrypted with TLS. Order data is stored in access-controlled databases on Cloudflare's infrastructure. Payment credentials never touch our servers. No system is 100% secure; we will notify affected customers of any breach as required by law.

Our site sells industrial equipment to businesses and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Our services are operated from the United States. If you access the site from outside the U.S., your information will be processed in the U.S.
