Owens Corning Claims Site Privacy Policy

    Owens Corning respects the privacy of every individual who visits our Claims web site at www.occlaims.com (Claims Site). This Claims Site Privacy Policy states how Owens Corning will collect information from visitors to this web site and use it appropriately.

    This Claims Site Privacy Policy is only applicable to this special Owens Corning web site.


Personal Information

   To streamline claims administration, we ask you to enter contact information, including your name, address and telephone number, before you can download claims forms from the Claims Site.  Downloaded forms may contain preprinted or encoded versions of the information you have provided, making it easier for our administrators to log and process your claims when you submit them.

    We will use this personal information only for claims administration, not for marketing purposes. We will not sell your information to other companies.  We may, however, make your information available on a need-to-know basis to persons and entities assisting us with claims administration, including attorneys, accountants, auditors, consultants, third-party claims administrators, bankruptcy trustees, and court personnel.  To the extent it is within our control, we will take appropriate steps to obligate those parties to use this information only for claims administration, and for no other purposes.

     We do not anticipate making this information public in connection with the bankruptcy proceedings; however, identifying information with respect to persons who actually submit claims may become a matter of public record.

     The Claims Site is not configured to log or process any claims, but only to provide forms for the use of people who may wish to submit claims.

     We may also use this personal information, or the non-personal information described below, to develop statistical analyses or profiles, for instance analyzing the submission or non-submission of actual claims by persons who obtained claim forms through the Claims Site or otherwise.


Non-Personal Information

   We may collect anonymous non-personal information about Claims Site visitors.  The information we receive is for Owens Corning's use only and is not disclosed to any other party except in aggregate form. Examples of this information include the time and length of your visit, the pages that you looked at on our site, the Internet browser you used (such as Internet Explorer or Netscape), and the Internet domain from which you arrived. We may use this information to develop ideas for improving our Claims Site and to measure Claims Site activity. 


Children

    Owens Corning has no intention of collecting any personal information from individuals under 18 years of age, and we do not expect the Claims Site to attract children. If a child has provided us with personal information without the consent of a parent or guardian, a parent or guardian should contact us via U.S. mail at the following address:
