We are committed to protecting the privacy of personal information and the responsible use of that information to deliver personalized, relevant content to our customers. This Privacy Policy applies to this website or mobile application and the websites and mobile applications that display this Privacy Policy(collectively, Sites). We may also operate additional websites or mobile applications that are governed by their own privacy policies. This Privacy Policy describes our policies and procedures for the collection, use and disclosure of your information and data on these Sites and the services available through them (Services).
Our Sites also contain a link to our Terms of Use which govern your use of these Sites and the Services available through them. You understand that by using these Sites or Services you agree to the terms of both this Privacy Policy and the Website Terms of Use.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE COLLECT IT
The personally identifiable information we collect may include your name, address,zip code,phone number, email address, and other identifying information, and may also include information about vehicles you own or lease such as sales and service transaction history, vehicle payments, VIN, and mileage(collectively, Personal Information or PI). We collect PI in a number of different ways and from a number of different sources.We collect PI you provide us through our Sites or when using certain aspects of our Services. We may also collect PI you provide to manufacturers, our authorized vendors, or affiliates, as well as information we obtain from third party databases(collectively, our Partners).
As part of our Services, we may communicate with you via email, call, chat or text. In this capacity, we would have the ability and authorization to read or listen and retain the content of those communications, including contact information.In all cases, the information we may retain and how we may use it are subject to this Privacy Policy and applicable law.
We may also collect usage information about how our Sites and Services are accessed and used. This may include information such as your computer’s IP address, browser type, type of device used, pages on our Sites that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data.
HOW WE USE AND SHARE YOUR INFORMATION
We use your PI to provide information you request about our products or services, to respond to your inquiries,and to customize information and advertising that we believe may be of interest to you. We may also use your PI to provide you with marketing materials, as well as other information we believe may be relevant to you. We also use remarketing services to advertise to you on third party websites, such as Google, Bing, YouTube and Facebook and their partners. To control or opt out of any of their ad services, or to review their privacy policies, please visit their sites.
We may also use your PI by combining it with non-personal information and aggregating it with information collected from others. We use this aggregated data in a number of ways, such as to improve the quality and value of our Services and to analyze and understand how our Services are used. In addition, we may provide aggregated data to our Partners so that they may understand how people use our Services or their own.
Your PI may be shared with our Partners, and may also be disclosed to third parties who work with us or our Partners. Vehicle manufacturers, for example, may use that information to contact you. We may also work with third parties that provide certain functions or services on our behalf, such as marketing,communications, analyzing data or authenticating contact information.
We require our third party service providers to contractually commit to protecting your PI in accordance with both industry standards and applicable law. While we have implemented policies and procedures to protect PI, we cannot control, and are not responsible for, the manner in which our Partners or other third parties use that PI.Accordingly, you should review their privacy policies, as well.
