At Kidde Global Solutions and its affiliates, ("KGS", "we", "our", and "us"), the protection of the information we collect about you is important to us. This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") applies to any websites (including https://www.kidde.com/, our "Website") and any related products and services, including any associated interactive features, widgets, plug-ins, applications, content, downloads and other services we may offer to you that posts a link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the "Services"), regardless of how you access or use them, whether via personal computer, browser, laptop, tablet, mobile phone or other device (each a "Device"). This Privacy Policy covers how KGS collects, uses, shares, and processes personal and other information and data of users of our Services. Nothing in this Privacy Policy shall, nor is it intended to, confer any contractual right on any user of the Website or the Services.

By using or accessing our Services or by submitting information to KGS, you consent to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

In addition to reading this Privacy Policy, please review our Terms of Use, at: https://www.kiddeglobalsolutions.com/terms-of-use, which governs your use of our Services. If you do not agree to our Terms of Use and the collection, use and sharing of your information as detailed in this Privacy Policy, please do not access or otherwise use our Services or any information or content accessible on our Services.

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time, and we will post a notice or inform you of any such changes on our Website. Your use of our Services following the posting of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of such updated Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to apply the amended terms to the information that we have already collected, subject to any legal constraints. We will not, however, use your previously collected Personal Information in a manner materially different than represented at the time of collection. To the extent any provision of this Privacy Policy is found by a competent tribunal to be invalid, such provision shall be severed to the extent necessary for the remainder to be valid.

Please note that this Privacy Policy applies only to our information-gathering, use, and dissemination practices in connection with our Services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any of our information practices conducted separately by KGS outside of our Services.

This Privacy Policy is written in the English language. We do not guarantee the accuracy of any translated versions of this Privacy Policy. To the extent any translated versions of this Privacy Policy conflict with the English language version, the English language version of this Privacy Policy shall control.

1. Information Collection

We collect information about you in several ways, including when you choose to share information with us by entering it through our Services and by using automated processes. We also collect information about your transactions with us (including via dealers, resellers and service partners), such as any information you submit to us through our Services.

(a) Information You Provide

We may ask you and you may choose to provide certain "Personal Information" to us, which is information that identifies you personally, such as your first and last name, e-mail address, mailing and billing addresses, telephone number, job title, or employment information. If you submit a form or request, or register a product with KGS, you may also provide information about the product you are registering or the person/company that installed or maintains it, and other personal information.

(b) Information About Third Parties

By submitting Personal Information about any third party, you represent and warrant to KGS that you have the consent of the third party to do so, and that the information you submit is factually accurate.

(c) Automated Information Collection

In addition to any information that you choose to submit to us via our Services, we and our third-party service providers may use a variety of technologies that automatically (or passively) store or collect certain information whenever you visit or interact with our Services ("Usage Information"). This Usage Information may be stored or accessed using a variety of technologies that may be downloaded to your Device whenever you visit or interact with our Services. To the extent we associate Usage Information with your Personal Information we collect directly from you through our Services, we will treat it as Personal Information. This usage information is used to streamline the customer experience, research potential risks, and enhance individual customers' risk profiles.

This Usage Information may include:

• your IP address, UDID or other unique identifier ("Device Identifier"). A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device used to access our Services, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier;
• your Internet Service Provider (ISP);
• your Device functionality (including browser, operating system, hardware, mobile network information);
• the URL that referred you to our Services;
• the areas within our Services that you visit and your activities there, including remembering you and your preferences;
• your Device location;
• your Device characteristics; and
• certain other Device data, including the time of day, among other information.

Tracking Technologies. We may use various methods and technologies to store or collect Usage Information ("Tracking Technologies"). For detailed information about our Tracking Technologies, including cookies collection and practices, please review our cookies policy here: https://www.kiddeglobalsolutions.com/cookies-policy, which provides supplemental details.

Tracking Technologies may set, change, alter or modify settings or configurations on your Device. A few of the Tracking Technologies include, without limitation, the following (and subsequent technology and methods later developed):

• Cookies. A cookie is a data file placed on a Device when it is used to visit our Services. HTML5 cookies can be programmed through HTML5 local storage.
• Web Beacons. Small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons (also known as "1×1 GIFs" or "clear GIFs") may be included in the pages and messages of our Services. Web beacons may be invisible to you, but any electronic image or other web programming code inserted into a page or e-mail can act as a web beacon. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, to count visitors to our Services, to monitor how users navigate our Services, to count how many e-mails that were sent were actually opened or to count how many particular articles or links were actually viewed.
• Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with our Services, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your Device from our web server or a third-party service provider, is active only while you are connected to our Services and is deactivated or deleted thereafter.
• Browser Fingerprinting. Collection and analysis of information from your Device, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts and other data, for purposes of identification.
• ETag, or Entity Tag. A feature of the cache in browsers. It is an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL. If the resource content at that URL ever changes, a new and different ETag is assigned. Used in this manner ETags are a form of Device Identifier. ETag tracking may generate unique tracking values even where the consumer blocks HTTP, and/or HTML5 cookies.
• Recognition Technologies. Technologies, including application of statistical probability to data sets, which attempt to recognize or make assumptions about users and devices (e.g., that a user of multiple devices is the same user).
• Session Replay / Pixel Tracking. Some of our businesses may also rely on Tracking Technologies for purposes of session replay and pixel tracking, which collect Information that tracks your interactions with our Services, including mouse movements, text, heatmap data, and other information associated with your visit to our site. This information may be used to help us improve our site and better provide you with information you are interested in when you visit our site.

Tracking Technologies Usage. We may use Tracking Technologies for a variety of purposes, including:

• Strictly Necessary. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that we consider are strictly necessary to allow you to use and access our Services, including cookies required to prevent fraudulent activity and improve security.
• Performance-Related. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that are useful in order to assess the performance of our Services, including as part of our analytic practices or otherwise to improve the content, products or services offered through our Services.
• Functionality-Related. We may use cookies or other Tracking Technologies that are required to offer you enhanced functionality when accessing our Services, including identifying you when you sign-in to our Services or keeping track of our specified preferences, including in terms of the presentation of content on our Services.
• Targeting-Related. We may use Tracking Technologies to deliver content relevant to your interests on our Services and third-party sites based on how you interact with our content. This includes using Tracking Technologies to understand the usefulness to you of the content that has been delivered to you.
• Social Media-Related. These allow you to share our content with your friends and networks via social media.

2. Use of Collected Information

We may use the information that we collect from you to carry out our contractual obligations, authenticate you as a user and allow you access to certain areas of our Website, and provide products, services, and information to you. We may use your information to process your requests or further process your submitted form, to provide you with information that may be of interest to you, to prevent and detect fraud and other crime, and to maintain the integrity and security of our systems and the Services. We may anonymize or aggregate your information for marketing and actuarial purposes. We may also use your information to process your account registration and to enable you to use certain features of our Services. We may also use the information that we collect to evaluate or conduct a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by us is among the assets transferred. We may also use the information that we collect to customize your experience on our Services, to better tailor our product offerings, to improve our Services and the content provided on and through our Services, to provide customer support, to enforce our Terms of Use: https://www.kiddeglobalsolutions.com/terms-of-use, to meet our legal obligations or to inform a legal proceeding, and to provide you with content or advertisements that may be of interest to you. We may also use the information we collect from you for additional purposes with your consent.

Legal basis for processing. When we use your personal information, we use it with a valid legal basis. These include, depending on the personal information you share with us, the following:

• Legitimate interest. This may include performing our Services for you, to manage our relationship with you and to promote our business and products to you, and managing our business and its operations.
• For the performance of a contract with you or for preparatory steps taken at your request prior to entering into a contract.
• Compliance with legal obligations. For example, to comply with anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing laws and sanctions obligations, to comply with law enforcement requests, court orders, and regulatory requirements and to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
• Consent, where that is obtained. In most cases, we rely on other reasons. Where you do provide consent, that may be withdrawn at any time.

We have set out below, in a table format, a description of all the ways we plan to use the various categories of your personal data described above, and which of the legal bases we rely on to do so. We have also identified what our legitimate interests are where appropriate.

3. Information Sharing

We may share the information that we collect from you, including Personal Information, with third parties for a variety of purposes. For example, we may share information with service providers who assist us in our business operations. Where this is the case, we will enter a contractual data processing agreement with the service provider to require at least the same level of privacy protection as is set out in this Privacy Policy. We may also share information where required by law or to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, subpoena, government request, or other legal process. We may also share information with third parties, including law enforcement, to protect our Services and to enforce our Terms of Use (https://www.kiddeglobalsolutions.com/terms-of-use). We also reserve the right to share the information that we collect with our subsidiaries and affiliates for marketing and other business purposes and with any subsequent owner in the event of a merger, consolidation, sale of our assets, or other change in our business, including during the course of any due diligence process.

(a) Co-Branded Areas

We may provide certain parts of our Services in association with third parties, such as promotional partners or affiliates. These "co-branded areas" will identify the third party. If you choose to use these co-branded areas, we may share your information with the identified third party, and that third party may also collect information from you, in addition to the information that we collect, as described above. You should review the privacy policies of those identified third parties to understand how they collect and use information.

(b) Links to Third-Party Websites

Our Services may include links to third-party websites or other online services. We are not responsible for these other sites and services, and they may collect and use information about you. You should review the privacy policies for such third parties before using their sites or services to understand how they collect and use information.

(c) Third-Party Tracking and Do Not Track

Third parties may use tracking technologies in connection with our Services, which may include the collection of information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to these third-party technologies because we may not control them and we are not responsible for them. Do Not Track is a technology that enables users to opt out of tracking by websites they do not visit. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to Do Not Track technology.

(d) Analytic Services and Targeted Ads

We use third-party analytics services, like Google Analytics, to collect, monitor and analyze data we collect through our Services to better understand how our Services are used and to improve its functionality. These services may track details about your online activities over time and across different websites. These services may also allow us and others to provide you with targeted advertisements or other content that you may be interested in based on your online activities.

The Google Analytics service tracks and reports Website traffic and provides us insight into behavior information relating to visitor age, gender and interests. Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting give us insight into behavior to help us understand browsing behavior and give you a better experience when you visit our Website. You can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads using the Ads Settings.

These third-party services have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information. We recommend you review their privacy policies. If you want to prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics, you may wish to take advantage of Google Analytics' currently available opt-outs for the web.

If you would like to learn more about targeted ads that may be based on your online activities, and the choices that you may exercise for certain sites and advertisers, you may wish to visit the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance.

4. Information Protection

We use commercially reasonable and industry standard security technologies and safeguards to protect the information that we collect and use. For example, we use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for our registration and ordering functions, and we utilize a PCI-certified service provider to process payment card payments. We also expect our service providers to protect information in the same manner. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed 100% secure. Please note that we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us.
