If you choose not to provide us certain information, we may not be able to offer you certain products and services, and you may not be able to access certain features of the Services.

2. HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA

We collect personal data in a few ways:

2.1. Information you give us. We collect information that you elect to share with us, for example, when you sign up for a newsletter, respond to a survey or fill out a form, register for a product warranty, sign up for a loyalty program, create an account to access the Services, visit our stores, attend one of our events, enter into a contest or sweepstakes, place an order, provide a review, contact customer service, or make a purchase.

2.2. Information obtained when you use the Services. We collect certain information from you through your use of the Services, such as usage data and location data (i.e., such as data derived from your IP address, country and zip code). We may also collect generic network information and aggregated data in relation to how you use the Services in order to assess and improve functionality of the Services.

2.3. Information provided by third parties. We may obtain data about you from third parties who help us provide the Services to you. For example, we may obtain information about your order or product return from our order fulfillment and delivery partners, and garages that service your vehicles may provide vehicle service and repair information. We may also obtain data about you from third party credit reference agencies if we conduct a credit check. In these instances, please refer to the relevant third party’s privacy notice to understand how they handle your personal data.

We also use third-party web analytics services in connection with the Services, which use cookies and similar technologies to collect data (such as IP addresses) to evaluate use of and interaction with the Services. Depending on the website you are visiting, you can learn more about these analytic tools and how to opt-in/opt-out by either clicking on the Cookie icon, Cookie link, or Privacy Choices link at the bottom of the page.

3. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES Like most companies, we use cookies and similar technologies (“cookies”) in the Service to personalize and enhance your experience with our Service. We and third parties with whom we partner (including Google Analytics) may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, web bugs, scripts, tags, and other similar technology (collectively, “Cookies”) to record information about your activities on our websites and on third-party websites that you visit.

3.1. Cookies. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a device for record-keeping purposes. Cookies record information about your activities while using a website and “remember” you when you return to the website. Some cookies remain on your device until you delete them. Others, like session ID cookies, expire when you close your browser. You may set your device settings to attempt to reject cookies but doing so may affect functionality of the Services. Information collected by cookies may include, but is not limited to: your IP address, browser type and language, device type, device identifiers, other device and software information (such as configuration information on your device and other applications), apps you access, search and browsing information, web usage information, referring/exit pages and URLs, other browser history, platform type, number of clicks, landing pages, cookie information, the pages you requested and viewed, the amount of time spent on particular pages and the date and time of each request you make.

3.2. Pixels. Pixels (aka web beacons) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that are used to track the online movements of web users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a computer’s hard drive, pixels are small graphics that are about the size of the period at the end of the sentence that are embedded invisibly on web pages or in HTML-based emails. We do not control the use of pixels by third parties.

3.3. Making cookie choices. Except for cookies that are essential to the operation of the website you are visiting, you can choose what cookies you will accept. You can view the cookies used on the Company website you are visiting and make choices about those cookies, through the Cookie Consent Management tool. Depending on the website, you can access the tool by either clicking on the Cookie icon or the Cookie link at the bottom of that site. By refusing to accept cookies, you may not be able to use some of the features and functionality available through the Services.

3.4. Sharing tools. To enhance your experience when using the Services, we sometimes embed content and sharing tools from other third-party sites, such as “like” buttons from social networking sites; these third-party sites may also place and access cookies on your device. We do not control the placement or access of these third-party cookies. Please review the privacy notices of these third parties to familiarize yourself with their practices.

3.5. Google Analytics. Google, an analytics provider, may collect information about our website usage and users of the Services to the extent the website uses Google Analytics. Google may use cookies and pixels to collect usage information from users that visit the Services, including information about the pages where users enter and exit the Services, what pages users view on the Services, time spent on each page, browser version, operating system, internet protocol address, and geolocation information. These technologies allow Google to recognize a user when a user visits the Services and when the user visits other websites. Google aggregates the information it collects from the Services and from other websites and shares the aggregated information with us and other website operators, including but not limited to age range, gender, geographic regions, general interests and details about devices used to visit websites and purchase items. For more information regarding Google’s collection methods and use of information, see the Google Privacy Policy by visiting the following link: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. To manage your Google Analytics tracking choices, please visit the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You may also understand whether and how we use Google and exercise your choices by clicking on the Cookie icon, Cookie link or Privacy Choices link at the bottom of the page, depending on the website you are visiting.

We may also utilize certain forms of display advertising and other advanced features through Google Analytics. These features enable us to use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick advertising cookie) or other third-party cookies together to inform, optimize, and display ads based on your past visits to the Services. You may control your advertising preferences for certain Google advertising products by visiting the Google Ads Preferences Manager, currently available at https://google.com/ads/preferences, or by visiting NAI’s online resources at https://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1.

3.6. Online Ads. To learn more about interest-based advertising and how you may be able to make choices about some of this advertising, you may wish to visit the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) resources and/or the Network Advertising Initiative’s (NAI) online resources, at www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/, or if you are in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom or Switzerland: https://youronlinechoices.eu/. You may also be able to limit interest-based advertising through the settings menu on your mobile device by selecting “limit ad tracking” (iOS) or “opt-out of interest-based ads” (Android). You may also be able to opt-out of some — but not all — interest-based advertising served by mobile ad networks by visiting http://youradchoices.com/appchoices and downloading the mobile AppChoices app.

Please note that when you opt out of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from us or on our online services. It means that the online ads that you do see from DAA program participants should not be based on your interests. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs. In addition, third parties may still use cookies to collect information about your use of our online services, including for analytics and fraud prevention as well as any other purpose permitted under the DAA’s Principles.

If you are located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you may take advantage of Your Online Choices. This service allows you to select tracking preferences for most of the advertising tools. As such, it is recommended that you make use of this resource in addition to the information provided in this document.

Submitting Privacy Rights Requests

To submit a request to exercise one of the privacy rights identified above, please utilize the information provided in the “How to contact us” section of this Privacy Notice.

Before processing your request, we may need to verify your identity and confirm you are a resident of a state that offers the requested right(s). In order to verify your identity, we will generally either require the successful authentication of your customer account, or the matching of sufficient information you provide us to the information we maintain about you in our systems. As a result, we may require requests to include email address, phone number, and/or date of last transaction on our Services. We may at times need to request additional personal data from you, taking into consideration our relationship with you and the sensitivity of your request.

In certain circumstances, we may decline a privacy rights request, particularly where you are not a resident of one of the eligible states or where we are unable to verify your identity.

In certain circumstances, you are permitted to use an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf through the designated methods set forth above where we can verify the authorized agent’s authority to act on your behalf. In order to verify the authorized agent’s authority, we generally require evidence of either (i) a valid power of attorney or (ii) a signed letter containing your name and contact information, the name and contact information of the authorized agent, and a statement of authorization for the request. Depending on the evidence provided, we may still need to separately reach out to you to confirm the authorized agent has permission to act on your behalf and to verify your identity in connection with the request.

9. DATA RETENTION

We retain personal data only for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected. However, if necessary, we may retain personal data for longer periods of time, until set retention periods and deadlines expire, for instance where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, tax and accounting requirements set by a legislature, regulator or other government authority.

To determine the appropriate duration of the retention of personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of personal data and if we can attain our objectives by other means, as well as our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other applicable obligations.

Therefore, we retain personal data for as long as the individual continues to use our services for the purposes explained in this Privacy Notice. When an individual discontinues the use of our services, we will retain their personal data for as long as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes and defend claims, as well as, for any additional purpose based on the choices they have made, such as to receive marketing communications. In particular, we will retain personal data supplied when joining our services, including complaints, claims and any other personal data supplied during the duration of an individual’s contract with us for the services until the statutory limitation periods have expired, when this is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Once retention of the personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes outlined above, we will either delete or deidentify the personal data or, if this is not possible (for example, because personal data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store the personal data and isolate it from further processing until deletion or deidentification is possible.

Most of the programs and other offerings we manage are provided on behalf of our clients. For these programs and other offerings, please refer to the terms and privacy notice of the client with which you have a relationship for information regarding any financial incentives they may offer through our services.

Apart from the programs and other offerings we provide on behalf of our clients, we also provide our own programs and other offerings directly to interested individuals that may qualify as financial incentives. For example, the programs and other offerings we may make available to interested individuals include:

Access to exclusive content, research, and insights; or

Discounts, coupons, cash back, and other special offers for shopping with our partners.

To obtain access to certain of these programs and other offerings, we may ask to collect or share an interested individual’s personal data, including name, contact information, professional information, account information, and shopping transaction information. We have determined that the value of these programs and other offerings are reasonably related to the value of the personal data we receive and otherwise process in connection with these programs and offerings, based on our reasonable but sole determination. We estimate the value of the personal data we receive and otherwise process in connection with these programs and offerings by considering the expense we incur in collecting and processing the personal data, as well as the expenses related to facilitating the program or offering.

The terms applicable to each program and other offering are provided at the time an eligible individual is offered an opportunity to participate. Interested individuals can opt-in to these financial incentives by following the instructions presented at the time the offer is made. Participating individuals may withdraw from our programs and other offerings at any time by following the instructions provided in connection with each offering or through the information provided in the “How to contact us” section of our Privacy Notice.
