Privacy policy

Our business respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your online confidentiality. Because we collect certain types of information from visitors to our sites, we have developed a privacy statement to help you understand the terms and conditions that govern the collection and use of that information. This statement discloses the types of information we collect, how we use it, and how you can view and modify the data we have collected about you at any time.

Guiding principles

Our business respects the privacy of individuals who visit our websites, send us e-mails or use the features or services we offer online. Accordingly, our online privacy policy has been developed in accordance with the following guiding principles: Our business applies a strict “anti-spam” policy. Subscribers to our e-mail services (or to any other service or feature available on our website) will not receive any unsolicited e-mail from us. Our business collects information online mainly to offer our visitors a more relevant experience on our sites. In the course of this collection, we will do everything reasonably possible to avoid any abusive or inappropriate data collection. Our business will take reasonable physical, electronic and administrative measures to preserve and secure all the information you provide to us (i.e., the data will be stored in protected databases on secure servers with restricted access). Our business will not disclose to anyone the information you have provided to us without your consent, except for the purpose of providing you with the service you have requested. When you register to benefit from such a service, you will be notified of our intention to disclose your information to a specific third party for the purpose of providing the requested service, and you will be asked to agree to that disclosure. Information collected

Data that does not identify you

Each time you visit our website, we may collect certain information that does not identify you and that relates to the means you use to access our site. This information may include the type and version of your browser, your Internet service provider, your IP address or the search engine you may have used to find our site. We use this information to diagnose problems with our server, administer the website and gather statistical data of a non-specific nature. In addition, we collect certain browsing data about the pages you visit on our websites. This information allows us to determine which sections of the websites are most often viewed and helps us tailor the sites to the expectations and interests of our online visitors. This information is collected by us in aggregate form and will not be associated with a particular individual without that individual’s consent.

Information provided voluntarily

All the information you provide to us (e.g., name, e-mail address, etc.) when you sign up for one of our e-mail reminder services, when you request information or when you use the other interactive sections of our websites is stored securely on our web server and internal systems. This data may be used to provide you with information you have requested about our company, our products and our services, or to send you special messages. You may choose at any time to stop receiving messages (see the unsubscribe procedures below). This data may also be used to personalize your browsing experience on our sites by allowing us to offer you content that matches your interests and your geographic region.

Information collected from other sources

To allow us to better understand and respond to your expectations and interests, we may in the future receive information about you from other sources. We will ask every entity that provides us with such information to represent and warrant that the information was collected and stored in accordance with all state and federal laws. All such information will be stored by us in accordance with the terms set out in this privacy policy, together with the other personal information you have provided to us.

Disclosure of personal information

Our business knows how important your privacy is. We collect and store our customers’ personal information for our own use and that of our affiliates. We do not sell, rent or market the information provided by our customers to third parties, except in the situations described below, and never without your consent.

Business partners

Our business may from time to time enter into a partnership with certain retailers in order to offer a broader range of services to visitors to our site. As part of such a collaboration, we may share with those companies the use of certain interactive features of the website (e.g., the e-mail reminder service). The information provided by site visitors through the use of those interactive features may be viewed by our dealership office as well as by our partners.

Agents

We may use the services of other companies and individuals to provide certain features on our behalf and for our account. For example, we may engage third parties to administer e-mail services and run special promotions. These third parties will only have access to the personal information they need to provide those features and may not use or store that information for any other purpose. Subscribers or visitors to the site will never receive unsolicited e-mails from agents working on our behalf and for our account.

Transfer of business assets

If our dealership office were to sell or transfer part of its business assets, customer data could be part of the assets transferred as part of that transaction. If a substantial portion of the assets of our dealership office were acquired, customer data could be transferred as part of that acquisition.

Compliance with the law and security

Our business may disclose certain personal information where it believes in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to comply with or conform to the law, or that such disclosure is necessary to protect the users of our websites, the sites themselves or the public.

With your consent

Other than as set out in this privacy policy, you will be notified whenever information that identifies you could be disclosed to third parties, and you will have the opportunity to refuse the disclosure of that information.

Use of cookies

Our business may use a browsing feature called a “cookie.” Cookies are small files installed on your hard drive that allow us to offer you a personalized browsing experience. Our business uses cookies so that you do not have to enter information several times – such as your user IDs and passwords – each time you visit our websites. Cookies are also used to allow us to provide you with information targeted to your interests, based on your previous browsing on our websites. The “help” section of the toolbar of most browsers tells you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to be notified by your browser when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies entirely. Our websites have been designed to take advantage of the use of cookies. If you configure your browser to disable their use, some features of our websites may not function properly and you may have to enter your user IDs and passwords more frequently.

External links

Our websites include links to other sites. Our business is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those websites. To help ensure the protection of your privacy, we recommend that you review the privacy policy of each of the sites you access through a link on one of our websites.

Passwords

The record of your personal data following your registration on our website can only be accessed using a password associated with that record. To protect the integrity of the information contained in that record, you must not disclose or reveal your password in any way to third parties.

Public forums

Our websites may from time to time make chat rooms, forums, bulletin boards and/or discussion groups available to their users. Please note that, unless otherwise stated, any information disclosed in these spaces becomes public, and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in them.
