STS processes a range of information collected from you. This may include:
STS may collect your contact information for the use of marketing emails to communicate information on employment opportunities at our small business if you complete our subscription form. We use Constant Contact for our subscriptions and email marketing resource. Constant Contact, Inc. is a permission-based e-marketing software platform who acts as a service provider. We do not send emails to anyone who has not opted into our subscriptions, nor do we purchase, sell, nor trade our subscribers’ contact information.
We comply with the Constant Contact requirements to use the platform only for permission-based email marketing, in compliance with their Anti-Spam Policy. You may opt out of our Employment Opportunity emails at any time. Any emails you receive from STS through Constant Contact includes an easy, automated way for you to cease receiving marketing emails, or to change your interests. If you wish to do this, simply follow the unsubscribe, SafeUnsubscribe® and/or Update Profile links at the end of the email.

If you have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
All members of STS have an obligation to report actual or potential data protection compliance failures. This allows us to:
Depending on the severity of the incident and the exposure of sensitive data to unauthorized persons, STS has various levels of reporting for security incidents. In all cases, an IT Security Incident Report will be completed and provided to the STS IT Manager. As necessary, other company departments and outside organizations including government agencies may need to be notified of the security incident, as well as any affected individuals if personal data was included in the breach. After steps have been taken to resolve the data breach, STS will review the cause of the breach and evaluate if existing protection and prevention measures and processes are sufficient to prevent similar breaches from occurring, and where applicable put a stop to practices which led to the data breach.
Please read the Policy carefully. To update your preferences, review, or update your information, submit a request, raise any issues regarding the processing of your personal data or raise any questions, comments, or concerns about the Policy, you may contact us by writing to Summit Technical Solutions, LLC 7150 Campus Drive, Suite 210, Colorado Springs, CO 80920, or info@sts-llc.com.
