Pentair values your privacy. This notice describes the personal information Pentair may collect about you:

• through websites operated by us, from which you are accessing this Privacy Notice (the “Websites”),
• through the software applications made available by us for use on or through computers and mobile devices (the “Apps”),
• through any of our Internet of Things connected or connectable devices (our “IoT Devices”), including our internet-connected water solution products,
• through our social media pages and apps that we control from which you are accessing this Privacy Notice  (collectively, our “Social Media Pages”),
• through HTML-formatted email messages that we send to you that link to this Privacy Notice, and
• through other online and offline interactions you have with us, such as web-based trainings or in-person events.

Collectively, we refer to the Websites, Apps, IoT Devices, Social Media Pages, emails and other online and offline activities as the “Services.”

For the purposes of this notice, “Pentair” refers to Pentair plc and any of its subsidiaries who link to or otherwise provide you with this Privacy Notice. Please note that some of our subsidiaries may post separate privacy notices on their websites, and they are subject to their own posted privacy notices rather than this Privacy Notice.

“Personal information” is information that identifies you as an individual or relates to an identifiable individual.  When Pentair collects your personal information, we seek to collect what is relevant, adequate, and not excessive for the purpose it is collected.

• The ways that we may collect information about you include the following:
  • We may collect personal information from a variety of sources, such as the telephone, our sites, online video calls, our online or mobile applications or services, our transfer agent or our online advertisements.
    • Through the Services:  For example, we may collect personal information during the initiation or execution of business relationships, during events, trainings or tradeshows, when you subscribe to newsletters or request publications, create an account, return or exchange a product, activate a gift card, complete surveys, register for Pentair events or online services, contact us for further information, install and use our IoT Devices or Apps, or visit our sites while or before logged into a social media platform.
    • From other sources:  We may also collect personal information from public sources or third party data providers.  For example, our HR team may utilize LinkedIn or other social media platforms to identify employment candidates.  Each social media platform has their own policy on the way they process your personal information when you access their sites. If you have any concerns or questions about their use of your personal information, you should read their privacy policies carefully before using them.   We may also work with joint marketing partners to identify potential customers, with transfer agents to coordinate interaction with our shareholders or with other third parties to provide services to Pentair employees. 

• The types of personal information that we may collect about you include:
  • Contact information, such as name, title, phone number, mailing address, and e-mail address;

    • For example, our Apps may include features that allow you to connect the App to on-site cameras that you have installed at your pool build site, to enable you to view photographs or video content that you capture through those cameras (such as live-streaming or time-lapse video) through the App.
      
  • User credentials, when you register to use the Services.

We need to collect personal information in order to provide the requested Services to you.  If you do not provide the information requested, we may not be able to provide the Services. If you disclose any personal information relating to other people to us or to our service providers in connection with the Services, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

• How long we retain your personal information depends on the purpose for which it was obtained and its nature. We will keep your personal information for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Notice unless a longer retention period is permitted or required by law. The primary criteria we use to determine our retention periods include:
  • The length of time you have an active account or relationship with Pentair;
  • When we are getting to know you as a potential customer or business partner;
  • When we need to comply with a court order, law or legal process;
  • When legal requirements and professional guidelines require it – such as tax and audit purposes, information on aspects of health and safety, or in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations.
