INFORMATION WE COLLECT

You can visit the Site to read about our vehicles or use our online tools without providing any Personally Identifiable Information (other than, in some cases, your zip code). You may also choose to participate in activities and obtain services on the Site for which we may collect Personally Identifiable Information. We also collect Non-Personally Identifiable Information automatically when you use the Site.

“Personally Identifiable Information” is information associated with or that may be used to identify or contact a specific person. Personally Identifiable Information includes: (1) contact data (name, address, city, state, zip code, email address and telephone number); (2) demographic data (such as age range, gender, birth month); (3) vehicle information (vehicle identification number (VIN), make, model, model year, selling dealer and date of purchase or lease); and (4) credit card number and payment card information.

“Non-Personally Identifiable Information” is information that, by itself, does not identify the individual, such as the operating system you are using, IP address, the date and time stamp of your visit, referring URLs, your Internet service provider, browser type and related browser data, the pages you visit and purchase history.

HOW INFORMATION IS COLLECTED

Information You Provide To Us

We collect information that you provide to us when you use the Site. The information that we collect and how we process it depends on how you use the Site.

  • When you register or create an account
  • When you make brochure and information requests, order vehicle parts and accessories and request to receive site announcements and special offers
  • When you participate in promotional activities, such as surveys, sweepstakes, contests, special events, blogs and chats
  • When you contact us
  • When you otherwise voluntarily provide your Personally Identifiable Information

Information We Collect Automatically

We also collect certain information from users of the Site automatically when they visit. We may collect such information in the following ways:

Cookies.

We may collect certain preference information of website users through the use of HTTP cookies which are small files stored on your web browser in order to optimize the design of the Site. Cookies enable us to track and aggregate user behavior data so that we may better target the interests of our users and enhance their experience on the Site. You can set your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some website features or services may not function properly without cookies.

Web Beacons.

Some of our web pages, promotional email messages and/or newsletters may contain electronic images known as web beacons, which are also called single-pixel GIFs. Web beacons collect information including a cookie number, time and date of a page view and a description of the page on which the web beacon resides. Web beacons are a technique we may use to enhance and personalize the Site and the products and Services we offer, to provide product information and advertisements that are more relevant to your interests, compile aggregated statistics about the usage of the Site and to track the number of users who have opened and acted upon our promotional email messages.

Web Analytics and Interest-Based Advertising.

A number of technologies exist to analyze use of the Site, assess consumer behavior and serve relevant ads to consumers online. Auto Master employs a variety of these technologies, including web beacons, third-party analytics services, and third party interest-based advertising services. These technologies allow us to assess consumer behavior and to understand how we can better serve our customers. Many of these technologies are provided to Auto Master via third party providers specializing in behavioral marketing and consumer behavior. For example, our analytics service providers may use cookies or other technologies to collect Non-Personally Identifiable Information about Site visitor behavior. The information generated by your browser use, stored via cookies, log files, and other information sources (including IP address), is transmitted to our analytics service providers. This information is then used to evaluate visitors’ use of the Site and to compile statistical reports on website activity for Auto Master. We may aggregate this Non-Personally Identifiable Information with other information for analytics purposes. Our third-party advertising partners on this Site may also use browser and device tracking technologies (HTTP cookies, web beacons, advertising IDs, etc.) to collect and measure non-personally identifiable data about your browsing behaviors. These insights may subsequently be used to tailor and serve relevant Auto Master ads to you on sites that Auto Master does not own. If you would like to know more about interest-based advertising, or opt-out of interest-based advertising conducted by our partners, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance.

Third Party Advertisers.

Some banner ads provided by third parties may be displayed on the Site. These ads contain cookies and may also contain web beacons. Unlike cookies and web beacons used by Auto Master in content it controls on the Site, cookies or web beacons received with banner ads are collected by our advertisers and we do not have access to this information. We use third parties to serve some or all of the advertisements that are placed within the Site and they may use information (not including Personally Identifiable Information) about your visits to the Site and other websites to assist in serving advertisements to you. These companies may employ cookies, web beacons and action tags to measure advertising effectiveness. They may share anonymous information with their clients such as date and time the banner ad was shown you, the specific ad shown and the IP address.
