Privacy
Policy FindAutos.com respects
the privacy and security of its users. Our goal is to provide
you with a personalized Internet experience that delivers the
information, resources, and services that are most relevant
and helpful to you. In order to achieve this goal, we sometimes
collect information during your visits to understand what differentiates
you from each of our millions of other users.
In order to demonstrate our commitment to your privacy, we have
prepared this statement disclosing the privacy practices for
the entire FindAutos.com site. Additional terms and conditions,
if any, regarding the collection and use of your information
may also be provided to you before you sign up for a particular
service (like VinStickers.com). Here, you will learn what personally
identifiable information of yours is collected, how and when
we might use your information, how we protect your information,
who has access to your information, and how you can correct
any inaccuracies in the information.
What
is collected FindAutos.com
collects certain information from and about its users in three
ways -- directly from the user, from our Web server logs, and
with cookies.
User-Supplied Information: When you sign up for a service, such
as a Newsletter or My FindAutos.com, we may
ask you for your name, e-mail address, zip code and some other
personal information. The more accurate information you volunteer,
the better we are able to customize your FindAutos.com
experience.
Server log information::
When you visit an Internet Web site, you disclose certain information
about yourself, such as your Internet [Protocol] (IP) address,
the time of your visit, and the referring location (e.g., the
Site or page that offered a link to a FindAutos.com
page). FindAutos.com, like many other sites, records this basic
information about visits to its site.
|
Cookies: In order to offer and provide
a customized, personal service, FindAutos.com
may use cookies to store and help track your information.
For example, we may use cookies to help remind us who you
are and to deliver content and services based on your account
information. In addition, third party advertising networks
may issue cookies when serving advertisements.
Cookies are simply pieces of information that are sent to
your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's
hard drive. The use of cookies is relatively standard and
you will likely find them used on most other major Web sites.
Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. If
you prefer, you can reset your browser either to notify
you when you receive a cookie, or to refuse to accept cookies.
You should understand that certain areas of many sites may
not function properly if you set your browser to not accept
cookies or if you reject a cookie.
You should remember that whenever you voluntarily disclose
personal information online, such as on message boards,
through e-mail, discussion groups, or in chat areas, your
information can be collected and used by others. Although
FindAutos.com tries to protect your personal
information, FindAutos.com cannot ensure or warrant the
security of any information you transmit to us, and you
do so at your own risk. You are also solely responsible
for maintaining the secrecy of any passwords you set up
and/or any account information.
How information is
used:
Web Server Logs: This information helps us identify which
areas of our site are of interest to our visitors. FindAutos.com
also collects the Internet [Protocol] (IP) addresses of its
visitors for the purposes of system administration and to
report aggregate information to our advertisers. |
Cookies:
We use "cookies" to let you use our services more
easily and to let us keep track of certain statistical information
that helps us improve our site.
How we protect your information:
Any user statistics that we may provide to prospective advertisers
or partners regarding your FindAutos.com
usage are provided in the aggregate only and do not include
any personally identifiable information about any individual
user. You transmit all such information at your own risk.
However, once we receive your transmission, we make our best
effort to ensure its security on our systems.
How has access of information:
Except as described below, FindAutos.com
will not willfully disclose any individually identifiable
information to any third party without first receiving that
permission. FindAutos.com may disclose personal information
when we believe in good faith that the law requires it or
to protect the rights or property of FindAutos.com.
When service is offered in conjunction with another party,
for example, some FindAutos.com services,
such as insurance advertisements are offered in conjunction
with another company. In order to provide such co-branded
services to you, it is necessary for us to share your personal
information with the company offering the co-branded service.
If you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose
not to allow the transfer of data by not using that particular
service. If you choose to share your data with a provider
of a co-branded service, you should understand that those
providers may have separate privacy and data collection practices.
FindAutos.com has no control over and accepts
no liability for these independent practices. Each provider
should provide more information regarding its privacy and/or
use policies. |
