If you are a retail customer, we do not store your credit card number. We use this information only to process individual transactions. If you are a professional customer, we store a token that allows us to process multiple transactions.
Personal and Business Checks
When you pay with a personal or business check at one of our retail locations, we will check your name, address, and other personally identifiable information, and then confirm that these details match your state-issued ID, such as a driver’s license or permit. Your driver’s license or permit number will be recorded on your personal and business check for verification and security purposes.
Commercial Credit Account Applications
When you fill out an application for a Commercial Credit Account, we will ask for some personally identifiable information to process your application. We may request your name, address, phone number, and the length of time you have lived at your current residence. We may also ask for your social security number for verification purposes, but disclosing this information is optional. If provided, your social security number will be secured in our electronic system. Your credit history will be validated using third party software. A determination of credit will be made by our internal Credit Department once your application has been processed. We have no liability or responsibility for the security of information processed using third party software.
You may also provide information to us through your electronic devices. Kraft Tank uses technology to provide online customer support and data to improve or customize your shopping experience. These technologies help us track and analyze shopping trends, administer and update our websites, and review user activity to improve our performance. This information helps us understand your needs and suggest products and services relevant to you.

Kraft Tank gathers certain online and device information automatically and stores it in log files. This information may include your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, and operating system, as well as landing and exit pages, date and time stamps, and clickstream data.
Cookies
Kraft Tank uses cookies to track your shopping cart, remember your user settings, develop targeted marketing messages, and authenticate your account when you sign in. Cookies accomplish this by retaining your information from previous website visits and suggesting products and services as you browse and return to our websites. You can control or disable the use of cookies within your browser. You can still use our websites if you disable cookies, but you may lose some features, or some sections of our websites may have limited functionality.

“Do Not Track” Feature
Some browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature that prevents your activities from being recorded. Kraft Tank’s websites are not designed to respond to “Do Not Track” requests from browsers.
We may receive information about you from third party sources to help us correct or enhance our records and protect our business. We may inquire into your background if there is a potential financial risk for Kraft Tank. For example, when you apply for a Commercial Credit Account at one of our stores, we may collect personal information and perform a credit history check using third party software in order to make a decision regarding the issuance of credit. Any information we receive in this manner will be kept confidential and only used for the previously stated legitimate business purposes.
We may also use third-party web analytics services—like Google Analytics—in our online services. These service providers help us analyze how users navigate our online services. Information collected as a part of Google Analytics is automatically sent to Google, and Google may use cookies to help with the analysis. Google Analytics may provide demographic, interest-related, geographical and referral information that Kraft Tank may use to better understand our customer base. Session User ID tracking and stitching may also be used to further understand how our users access our websites from different devices.

California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010
Kraft Tank considers its reputation for integrity and fairness to be one of its most valuable assets. Kraft Tank seeks to outperform its competition fairly and honestly and never through unethical or illegal business practices. Kraft Tank expects its team members and supply chain vendors to comply in all respects with applicable laws and regulations in each governing jurisdiction that it does business. Supply chain vendors execute Master Supplier Agreements (“Agreements”) with Kraft Tank in which they take the following actions:
- Warrant Kraft Tank’s products do not violate any laws, ordinances, statutes, rules, or regulations, which include compliance with laws respecting the eradication of slavery and human trafficking
- Acknowledge that slavery and human trafficking is not involved in the manufacture or sale of Kraft Tank’s products
- Acknowledge that Kraft Tank supports the eradication of slavery and human trafficking from supply chains and seeks to partner with supplier partners who share the same policies and practices
- Conduct an annual or semi-annual audit on Kraft Tank’s products in order to regularly confirm that slavery and human trafficking does not play a part in the manufacture or sale of these products
These Agreements create an affirmative obligation on the part of Kraft Tank’s supply chain vendors to promptly provide notice of violation of any such laws, ordinances, statutes, rules, or regulations. The Agreements also require Kraft Tank’s supply chain vendors to be accountable for any violations of law by providing the company indemnification for violations relating to its products. Agreements and certifications are updated on a periodic basis.
Kraft Tank expects its supply chain vendors to conduct their relationship with the company consistent with the Kraft Tank Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code”), and company supply chain team members annually confirm their understanding of that Code. Team members may report violations of the Code through anonymous reporting to an independent third party. Kraft Tank has communicated to its supply chain vendors that the company supports efforts to eradicate slavery and human trafficking from supply chains, and their acknowledgment that their products are not manufactured and supplied in a manner inconsistent with those efforts. Annual training has been implemented for internal employees with direct responsibility for supply chain management. Kraft Tank reserves the right to make periodic, unannounced audits of its supply chain vendors’ facilities for compliance with the requirements of these Agreements, including compliance with laws, ordinances, statutes, rules, and regulations. Kraft Tank reserves the right to remove supply chain vendors from the supply chain for non-compliance with these Agreements. Kraft Tank does not utilize a third party for verification or unannounced audits at this time, but reserves the right to do so in the future.
Kraft Tank does not manufacture any products sold in the company’s retail locations. For more information about the slavery and human trafficking eradication policies of Kraft Tank’s branded-label supply chains, please visit their respective websites.
