Privacy & Security Policy

The SGE Privacy Policy was updated on February 12, 2026.

Your privacy is important to StarGuard ELITE ("SGE"), so we've developed a Privacy Policy that covers how we collect, use, disclose, transfer, and store your personal information. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with our privacy practices and contact us if you have any questions.

Do Not Track

SGE does not track customers over time or across third‑party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. Some third‑party sites may track your browsing activities when they serve content.

Third parties that provide embedded content—such as social features or analytics tools—may set cookies or obtain information that a browser visited an SGE website from a specific IP address. They cannot collect personally identifiable information unless you provide it directly.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

Personal information is data that can identify or contact a single person. You may be asked to provide personal information when interacting with SGE or an affiliated training center. SGE and its affiliates may share this information and use it consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

We may collect information such as:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Employee number
  • Address
  • Contact preferences
  • Device identifiers
  • IP address
  • Location information
  • Payment information (in some cases)

How We Use Personal Information

We may process your information:

  • With your consent
  • To comply with legal obligations
  • When necessary for SGE’s legitimate interests

We use personal information to:

  • Provide updates, announcements, and event information
  • Improve products, services, and content
  • Prevent fraud and protect account security
  • Verify identity and determine eligibility
  • Send important notices related to certifications, licenses, and account issues
  • Conduct auditing, data analysis, and research

Certain essential notices cannot be opted out of.

Consent and User Choice

SGE ensures individuals can make informed, freely given choices about how their information is used. We:

  • Explain when consent is required and how it is collected
  • Provide simple methods to withdraw consent
  • Avoid manipulative or deceptive design practices (“dark patterns”)

These practices supplement existing opt‑out options, including marketing email preferences.

Automated Decision‑Making and AI‑Assisted Processing

SGE does not make decisions using algorithms or profiling that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

AI‑assisted tools may support internal operations such as fraud detection, identity verification, or data analysis. These tools do not independently determine outcomes. Human review is always involved in decisions affecting rights, access, or services. SGE evaluates AI tools for fairness, accuracy, and relevance.

Collection and Use of Non‑Personal Information

SGE collects non‑personal data such as occupation, language, zip code, device identifiers, referrer URLs, and time zones. We also collect aggregated information about customer activities on our websites, the SGE Portal, and at trade shows.

If non‑personal information is combined with personal information, it is treated as personal information.

Cookies and Other Technologies

SGE websites and services may use cookies, pixel tags, and web beacons to understand user behavior, measure advertising effectiveness, and personalize experiences.

Disabling cookies may limit functionality. The SGE Portal will not function properly without cookies or JavaScript.

Disclosure to Third Parties

SGE may share personal information with strategic partners who help provide or improve products and services. We do not share personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Service Providers

We share personal information with companies that manage customer data, provide customer service, assess product interest, or conduct research. These companies are obligated to protect your information.

Vendor and Processor Oversight

SGE maintains strong oversight of service providers by:

  • Conducting due‑diligence reviews
  • Requiring contractual safeguards
  • Monitoring vendor compliance
  • Ensuring vendors process data only according to SGE’s instructions

Other Disclosures

SGE may disclose personal information when required by law or when necessary to protect users, operations, or public interests.

International Data Transfers

SGE stores personal information on secure systems, including Amazon Web Services. Personal information may be transferred to countries where SGE or its service providers operate.

When data is transferred internationally, SGE uses legally recognized safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions to ensure consistent protection.

Protection of Personal Information

SGE protects personal information during transit using encryption such as TLS and stores it on systems with limited access. Information shared publicly on SGE services may be visible to other users.

Integrity and Retention of Personal Information

SGE retains personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Some information must be kept indefinitely due to certifications, licenses, or operational history.

Your Privacy Rights

You may access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information unless SGE is required to retain it for legal or business purposes.

In addition, SGE recognizes the following rights:

  • Data Portability
  • Right to Object to Processing
  • Right to Restrict Processing
  • Timely responses consistent with applicable law

Children & Education

Children under 13 (or local minimum age) may not create SGE Portal accounts without verifiable parental consent. Parents may request access, correction, or deletion of a child’s account.

Location‑Based Services

SGE and partners may collect precise location data to provide location‑based services. Some features require personal information to function.

Third‑Party Sites and Services

SGE products may link to third‑party websites or services. Information collected by third parties is governed by their privacy practices.

AI Governance and Risk Management

SGE maintains governance measures to ensure responsible use of AI‑assisted tools, including:

  • Periodic risk assessments
  • Documentation of safeguards
  • Transparency about AI involvement

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

SGE communicates privacy and security guidelines to employees and enforces safeguards across the organization.
