Controlling your personal information

Your local privacy laws may grant you certain rights with respect to your information, and we will not knowingly discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights. The relevant data privacy statutes applicable to residents of Colorado, Connecticut, Montana, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, and Utah provide residents of these states (“Covered Residents”) with specific rights regarding their information. California residents may have the rights as described in our “California Privacy Rights” section.

These rights differ depending on your jurisdiction, but may include one or more of the following:

  • Right to access, confirm, or know what information we have collected from you and whether we process, or have processed, your information;
  • Right to correct inaccurate details of your information;
  • Right to delete your information;
  • Right to opt-out of or limit the use, disclosure, or sale of your information for targeted advertising or profiling (please note that we do not sell your information for these purposes); and
  • Right to request a portable copy of your information.

To make such a request, please send an email or write to:

Steyr Arms USA
ATTN: Website Data Request
2530 Morgan Road Bessemer, AL 35022
support-usa@steyr-arms.com

We will require you to identify yourself and the information you request to disclose to you, remove, modify or correct before commencing such requests. Information provided for verification purposes is used only for those purposes and is not saved or retained.

Please note that we may continue to contact you where we have a legitimate basis to do so (such as, to email you in response to an inquiry from you, to fulfill an order or request, or to provide services you have requested). We will not knowingly discriminate against you for exercising any of your applicable privacy rights.

When we provide access to your information for the purposes of modification, correction, or removal, we do so free of charge except where doing so requires an unreasonable effort. Additionally, in some instances, we reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee, where allowed by law, to cover administrative costs associated with complying with requests when a consumer has made more than one request within a 12-month period.

We will confirm receipt of a verifiable consumer request within 10 business days and provide information about how the request will be processed. We will locate the requested information, and, if available, will take the requested action with regards to your verifiable request.  We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) calendar days of its receipt.

Removal of information is possible under certain circumstances, provided that we do not have a legitimate or lawful purpose to retain it or are otherwise required by law to retain it. We may refuse requests that we believe are fraudulent, are of unreasonable technical effort or would be highly unfeasible, endanger the privacy of others, or require access that is not normally necessary. We may also deny a request if we cannot verify the consumer within the 45-day time period. If we require more time (up to 90 calendar days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.  We will respond to a verifiable request in the same format in which the original request was made.

If you receive notice that we have denied your request, consumers in some states may be entitled to submit an appeal to us, in certain circumstances. If you believe our decision was made in error and wish to request reconsideration of your inquiry, please contact us with a brief explanation.
