Notice of Financial Incentive. Our rewards programs, including the Cornerstone Building Brands Rewards, Ply Gem Rewards and Simonton ProNetwork, provide benefits such as rewards points and special offers to participating businesses that purchase our products. Participation requires you to provide some personal information, such as Identifiers, Professional or Employment-Related Information, and Commercial Information. We may also offer military or veteran discounts from time to time. The incentives associated with our rewards programs are designed to reward loyal customers based on the volume of products and services they purchase from us. For the full terms and conditions applicable to our rewards programs, please see the applicable terms available through the websites linked above.

We have made a good faith estimate that the value of California residents’ personal information provided in connection with our rewards programs is equivalent to the relevant expenses related to the collection and retention of that personal information. Any difference in price or benefits provided to customers who participate in our rewards programs is reasonably related to the value of the personal information provided. By joining one of our rewards programs, you consent to any financial incentive associated with that program. You have the right to withdraw from the financial incentive at any time by cancelling your participation in the rewards program. You may cancel your rewards membership, by calling 866-526-0152.

Unless you specifically request, submission of a request to delete your personal information will not erase information required for you to continue to participate in our rewards programs. Should you wish to delete your personal information associated with a rewards program (and thereby cancel your participation in the program), please contact us at [email protected] or  866-526-0152.
