3. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL
INFORMATION?
In Short: We may share information in
specific situations described in this section and/or with the
following third parties.
We may need to share your personal information in the
following situations:
- Business
Transfers. We may share or transfer your information in
connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company
assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to
another company.
- When
we use Google Maps Platform APIs. We may share your information
with certain Google Maps Platform APIs (e.g., Google Maps API, Places
API). Google Maps uses GPS, Wi-Fi, and cell towers to estimate your
location. GPS is accurate to about 20 meters, while Wi-Fi and cell towers
help improve accuracy when GPS signals are weak, like indoors. This data
helps Google Maps provide directions, but it is not always perfectly
precise.
- Affiliates. We
may share your information with our affiliates, in which case we will
require those affiliates to honor this Privacy Notice.
Affiliates include our parent company and any subsidiaries, joint venture
partners, or other companies that we control or that are under common
control with us.
- Business
Partners. We may share your information with our business
partners to offer you certain products, services, or promotions.
- Other
Users. When you share personal information (for example, by
posting comments, contributions, or other content to the Services) or
otherwise interact with public areas of the Services, such personal
information may be viewed by all users and may be publicly made available
outside the Services in perpetuity. If you interact with other users
of our Services and register for our Services through a social network
(such as Facebook), your contacts on the social network will see your
name, profile photo, and descriptions of your activity. Similarly,
other users will be able to view descriptions of your activity,
communicate with you within our Services, and view your profile.
4. WHAT IS OUR STANCE ON THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES?
In Short: We are not responsible for
the safety of any information that you share with third parties that we may
link to or who advertise on our Services, but are not affiliated with, our
Services.
The Services may link to third-party websites, online
services, or mobile applications and/or contain advertisements from third
parties that are not affiliated with us and which may link to other websites,
services, or applications. Accordingly, we do not make any guarantee regarding
any such third parties, and we will not be liable for any loss or damage caused
by the use of such third-party websites, services, or applications. The
inclusion of a link towards a third-party website, service, or application does
not imply an endorsement by us. We cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of
data you provide to any third-party websites. Any data collected by third
parties is not covered by this Privacy Notice. We are not responsible for the
content or privacy and security practices and policies of any third parties,
including other websites, services, or applications that may be linked to or
from the Services. You should review the policies of such third parties and
contact them directly to respond to your questions.
5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?
In Short: We may use cookies and other
tracking technologies to collect and store your information.
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like
web beacons and pixels) to gather information when you interact with our
Services. Some online tracking technologies help us maintain the security of
our Services and your account, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your
preferences, and assist with basic site functions.
We also permit third parties and service providers to use
online tracking technologies on our Services for analytics and advertising,
including to help manage and display advertisements, to tailor advertisements
to your interests, or to send abandoned shopping cart reminders (depending on
your communication preferences). The third parties and service providers use
their technology to provide advertising about products and services tailored to
your interests which may appear either on our Services or on other websites.
To the extent these online tracking technologies are deemed
to be a "sale"/"sharing" (which includes targeted
advertising, as defined under the applicable laws) under applicable US state
laws, you can opt out of these online tracking technologies by submitting a
request as described below under section "DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS
HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?"
Specific information about how we use such technologies and
how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in our Cookie Notice.
Google Analytics
We may share your information with Google Analytics to
track and analyze the use of the Services. To opt out of being
tracked by Google Analytics across the Services, visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. For
more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy &
Terms page.
6. HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?
In Short: If you choose to register or
log in to our Services using a social media account, we may have access to
certain information about you.
Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in
using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or X
logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile
information about you from your social media provider. The profile information
we receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will
often include your name, email address, friends list, and profile picture, as
well as other information you choose to make public on such a social media
platform.
We will use the information we receive only for the purposes
that are described in this Privacy Notice or that are otherwise made clear to
you on the relevant Services. Please note that we do not control, and are not
responsible for, other uses of your personal information by your third-party
social media provider. We recommend that you review their privacy notice to
understand how they collect, use, and share your personal information, and how
you can set your privacy preferences on their sites and apps.
7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
In Short: We keep your information for
as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy
Notice unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep your personal information for as long as
it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless a
longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax,
accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will
require us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of
time in which users have an account with us.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process
your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such
information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal
information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store
your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until
deletion is possible.
8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In Short: We aim to protect your
personal information through a system of organizational and technical
security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical
and organizational security measures designed to protect the security
of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and
efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the
Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure,
so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or
other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security
and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we
will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal
information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only
access the Services within a secure environment.
9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
In Short: We do not knowingly collect
data from or market to children under 18 years of age.
We do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to
children under 18 years of age, nor do we knowingly sell such personal
information. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or
that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor
dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from
users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the
account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our
records. If you become aware of any data we may have
collected from children under age 18, please contact us
at help@bestcarfinder.com.
10. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In Short: You may review,
change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country,
province, or state of residence.
Withdrawing your consent: If we are
relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be
express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have
the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent
at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the
section "HOW
CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below.
However, please note that this will not affect the
lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable
law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information
conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
Opting out of marketing and promotional
communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and
promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link
in the emails that we send, or by contacting us using the details provided
in the section "HOW
CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below. You will then be
removed from the marketing lists. However, we may still communicate with you —
for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the
administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for
other non-marketing purposes.
Account Information
If you would at any time like to review or change the
information in your account or terminate your account, you can:
- Contact
us using the contact information provided.
Upon your request to terminate your account, we will
deactivate or delete your account and information from our active databases.
However, we may retain some information in our files to prevent fraud,
troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our legal terms
and/or comply with applicable legal requirements.
Cookies and similar technologies: Most
Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can
usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If
you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain
features or services of our Services. You may also opt out of
interest-based advertising by advertisers on our Services.
If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights,
you may email us at help@bestcarfinder.com.
11. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and
mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting
you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your
online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform
technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has
been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser
signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not
to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must
follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised
version of this Privacy Notice.
California law requires us to let you know how we respond to
web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal
standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not
respond to them at this time.

RIGHTS?

of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa,
Kentucky, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon,
