What personal information does American Solutions for Business share?
American Solutions for Business is not in the business of selling your information as we value our customers and their privacy. We share limited customer information only as described below:

These service providers are provided with only the information that they need to perform their functions and are not permitted to use or disclose your personally identifiable information for other purposes without your authorization.
- For customers submitting a request for service, or who are ordering through our ACES e-commerce site, American Solutions for Business shares limited information to the Sales Associate that services your account.
