What is privacy?
Here’s a definition: Privacy is giving a person control over the collection, use, and distribution of their personal data, and respecting their right to be left alone. Sounds revolutionary and ‘right on’ at the same time .... empowering from the customer’s perspective.
And what’s the difference between a privacy policy and a privacy statement?
A policy is a document created to guide our company; it says, in essence, this is what we believe regarding our customers’ privacy. The privacy statement explains that policy then to our customers.
Our Commitment to Online Security
All possible procedures have been employed to safeguard the security and integrity of your personal information and to protect the security of information supplied by you when applying for participation in any of our offers or programs.
Personal Information we May Collect Online
We may collect personal information online, including names, postal and e-mail addresses, phone and facsimile numbers, billing information, vehicle information such as vehicle identification numbers, and complaint information.

Our web sites are not set up to track, collect or distribute personal information not entered by visitors. Our site logs may generate certain kinds of non-identifying site usage data, such as the number of hits and visits to our sites. This information may be used for internal purposes by technical support staff to provide better services to you and may also be provided to others, but again, the statistics contain no personal information and cannot be used to gather such information.
