This Policy applies to any information that we collect on and in connection with your use of our Website, including any information in any forms or messages submitted by you to us through our Website or using the contact information provided on our Website.  This Policy does not apply to any other information that we collect by any other means.

 

Please read this Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it.  If you do not agree with our policies and practices, you can choose not to use our Website.  By accessing or using our Website, you agree to this Policy.  This Policy may change from time to time.  When we make changes to this Policy, we will post the updated Policy on our Website and update the Policy’s “last modified” date above.  We will also provide notice of any material changes as explained in the section below titled “Changes to Our Privacy Policy.”  Your continued use of our Website after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes.

 

This Privacy Policy Does NOT Apply to the Online Store

 

Please be advised that this Policy does NOT apply to any information collected or processed when you visit the Chase Elliott online store, located at https://store.chaseelliott.com/ (the “Online Store”).  The Online Store is not a part of the Website and is not operated or maintained by us.  The Online Store is operated and maintained by a separate, independent third party, Venture 21, Inc. (the “Online Store Operator”) under license from us.  We do not control (and are not responsible for) the Online Store Operator’s policies and practices relating to the collection, use, maintenance, protection or disclosure of your information when you visit and use the Online Store.  We only control (and are only responsible for) our own actions and the actions of our own service providers as it relates to the collection, use, maintenance, protection or disclosure of your information when you visit and use the Website, as described in this Policy.  We encourage you to review carefully the privacy policy and terms and conditions posted on the Online Store for information on the policies and practices of the Online Store Operator for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting and disclosing your information when you visit and use the Online Store.

 

Information Collected About You and How It is Collected

 

We may collect several types of information from and about users of our Website.  This may include information by which users may be personally identified or information about a user that is maintained in personally-identifiable form (collectively “Personal Information”).  Specifically, we (or our third party service providers acting on our behalf) may collect the following:

  • Your (and/or your business’s) shipping address.

  • Your (and/or your business’s) phone number.

  • Your payment information, such as credit card or debit card information, security codes, zip codes (for verification purposes) and other financial information used to process donations made on the “Foundation” page of the Website (“Payment Information”).  Please note: the third-party payment processor that we have engaged to securely process donations on our Website collects this information directly from you and processes this information on our behalf without sharing this information with us.  We do not directly collect or store or have access to any Payment Information other than the last four digits of your payment card and the transaction ID assigned to your donations.

  • The Technical Information described in the section below titled “Traffic, Usage and Computer/Device Information,” such as your IP address or mobile device ID.

  • Any other information (including Personal Information) you choose to provide in any forms or messages submitted by you to us through our Website or using the contact information provided on our Website.

 

With the exception of your Technical Information (which we or our third party service providers collect automatically as you navigate through or interact with our Website, as described below in the section titled “Traffic, Usage and Computer/Device Information”), generally we collect Personal Information directly from you when you provide it or submit it to us directly, such as in connection with registering to obtain additional information from us (such as signing up to receive our e-newsletter or other marketing and promotional information about us), entering your information to complete a transaction on the Website, entering into a sweepstakes, contest, giveaway or other promotion related to our products and services, responding to a voluntary survey you have agreed to complete, submitting an inquiry to us using the contact methods provided on our Website or otherwise contacting us about our Website or our business.  We may also receive Personal Information about you from the Online Store Operator in connection with your use of the Online Store (such as when you sign up to receive a newsletter or promotional messages via the Online Store), which we may use for any of the permitted purposes set forth in this Policy. 

 

We do not knowingly collect sensitive Personal Information about you, such as government-issued identifying numbers, financial account details, genetic data, precise geolocation, sexual orientation, race or ethnicity, or health data.

 

Traffic, Usage and Computer/Device Information

 

Additionally, as you navigate through and interact with our Website or interact with the e-mails, texts and other electronic messages we send to you, we or our third party service providers may automatically collect certain traffic data, usage information, and information about your computer equipment or mobile device, such as your browser and operating system, your wireless carrier, the geographic region from which you are accessing our Website, configuration data, clickstream analytics and your actions and patterns when you use our Website (“Technical Information”).  The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include cookies that are stored on the browser of your computer or mobile device, small embedded electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) and other types of embedded code.  We collect this information to manage our content and improve users’ use of our Website; to count and review the number of users of our Website and their usage patterns; to track key performance indicators such as pages accessed, frequency of access, conversions (the number of users who click on our advertisements and then go on to make a product purchase) and other statistical information related to our Website (for example, recording the popularity of certain content and verifying system and server integrity); to identify the portion of users who access our Website via different web browsers; to recognize if a user is a return user of our Website; to store information about a user’s visits; to remember a user’s preferences; and for similar purposes in connection with monitoring, operating, maintaining and improving our Website.  Third parties may also collect Technical Information and other information on our behalf as further described in the sections below titled “Use of Google Analytics,” “Use of Facebook Business Tools” and “Tracking and ‘DO NOT TRACK.’”

Third-Party Websites

 

Our Website may include links to blogs, social media and third-party websites.  These third-party sites have their own privacy policies and terms of use and are not controlled by this Policy. You should carefully review any terms, conditions and policies of such third-party sites before visiting them or supplying them with any personal information.  If you follow a link on our Website to any third-party site, any information you provide to that site will be governed by its own terms of use and privacy policy and not this Policy. You may be able to use social media widgets (e.g., the Facebook “Like” button) while using our Website.  These widgets will collect your IP Address and identify which page you are visiting on our Website and make your preference information available to third parties.  The information collected by such widgets is controlled by third-party privacy policies.

 

We are not responsible for the privacy or security of any information you provide to a third-party website or the information practices used by any third-party site, including those that are accessed via links to any third-party site from our Website.  We make no representations, express or implied, concerning the accuracy, privacy, safety, security, or the information practices of any third-party site.  The inclusion of a link to a third-party site on our Website does not constitute any type of endorsement of the linked site by us.  We are not responsible for any loss or damage you may sustain resulting from your use of any third-party website or any information you share with a third-party website.

 

Use and Disclosure of Aggregated or De-Identified Data

 

We may convert or combine some Personal Information of users into de-identified or aggregated data that does not disclose any of the Personal Information of any individual user. As an example, we may de-identify or aggregate information provided by or collected about you and other visitors to our Website to generate aggregate trends or insights about the behavior of visitors to our Website generally that may be shared (including for commercial purposes) with third parties.  You understand and agree that we may use and disclose to third parties any such de-identified or aggregated data (including traffic and usage data that does not identify you personally) for any lawful purpose.

 

Tracking and “DO NOT TRACK”

 

Tracking involves the use of cookies, web beacons, or other embedded code or tracking technologies to collect, analyze and store information on a user’s behavior over time on multiple sites, including information on the sites visited, products viewed, products purchased and other online interactions.  Tracking information can be used to enable companies to make interest-based (behavioral) advertising available to users on multiple sites that they visit.

 

We may (or our third-party service providers may on our behalf) collect Personal Information about your online activities over time and across third-party sites for tracking purposes when you use our Website.  However, we do not currently allow third parties to collect Personal Information through or using our Website that could be used by them to analyze and store information about your online activities over time and across third-party sites for their own tracking purposes (separate and apart from any services they provide to us in support of our permitted uses of your Personal Information as described in this Policy).

 

Our Website does not respond to any “do not track” signals sent by your computer, browser or mobile device, and if your computer, browser or mobile device sends a “do not track” signal to our Website, our Website will not treat you differently from users who do not send such signals.   For more information on how to disable certain tracking technologies, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out page at https://thenai.org/opt-out/ and the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Assistance page at www.youradchoices.com/choices.

 

Use of Google Analytics

 

We use Google Analytics to track and analyze certain traffic and usage statistics regarding the use of our Website, such as the number of visitors to our Website, how visitors are navigating to our Website, visitors’ general geographic region information, how long individuals are visiting our Website, and information about the equipment individuals are using to access our Website (e.g., browser version and operating system).  Google Analytics may use a Google Analytics cookie as part of this service, and we may share certain Personal Information with Google Analytics as part of this service.  We use this traffic and usage information to gauge, internally, the effectiveness of our advertising efforts and to make improvements to our Website and our marketing and promotional efforts.

 

For more information, please review the following:

 

 

 

You can opt out of our use of certain Google Analytics features by updating the “Ads Settings” in your browser or mobile device (www.support.google.com/ads/answer/1660762#mob), by enabling the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on in your browser (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout), or by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out page (www.optout.networkadvertising.org/).  Because those opt-out and preference control pages are specific to the individual browser used to visit it, and because those pages are not operated by us, we are unable to perform the opt-outs on your behalf.

 

Use of Facebook Business Tools

 

We may use various advertising services and business tools on Facebook in connection with our Website.  The services and tools we may use are summarized on Facebook’s website here:  https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/businesstools.  In connection with our use of these services and tools, Facebook may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from the Website and elsewhere on the Internet and use that information to provide measurement services and target ads to you and others.  One particular advertising service we use on Facebook is called Meta Pixel.  This service helps us (1) measure and track the results of our advertising on Facebook, and (2) better target our advertisements on Facebook to new potential users.  In connection with this service we may provide your e-mail address to Facebook along with the e-mail addresses of our other users, and Facebook uses this information to find other Facebook users with similar demographics and interests as indicated in the profiles and activities on Facebook of our users generally, to help us better target our advertising efforts on Facebook to those other Facebook users.  You can opt out of certain Facebook advertising features by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out page at https://thenai.org/opt-out/ and the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Assistance page at https://youradchoices.com/control or by adjusting the privacy settings in your Facebook profile.  Because those opt-outs, preference control pages and privacy settings are specific to the individual browser used to visit it or the individual Facebook profile, and because those opt-outs, preference control pages and privacy settings are not operated or controlled by us, we are unable to perform the opt-outs, set your preferences or adjust the privacy settings on your behalf.

 

Disclosure of Your Information

 

Generally

 

We do not sell, and in the past 12 months we have not sold, any Personal Information to third parties.  We may share your Personal Information with third parties in the following circumstances:

 

  • We may disclose Personal Information to our affiliates or to any contractors, service providers and other third parties who need to know such information (or such affiliates, contractors, service providers or other third parties may collect Personal Information directly from you on our behalf while you use our Website) to provide services to us that support our hosting, maintenance, operation and promotion of our Website and our business and our permitted uses of Personal Information under this Policy.  For example, we may use a third party cloud-hosting infrastructure service provider (e.g., Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud or Microsoft Azure), we may use a customer relationship management or an e-mail marketing software platform offered by a third party service provider, we may use a third-party payments processor to securely process donations in connection with our Website and we may use certain third-party advertising service providers (such as Google and Meta/Facebook as described above in the sections titled “Use of Google Analytics,” and “Use of Facebook Business Tools”).

  • We may disclose Personal Information to comply with any court order, law or legal process, including to meet national security and law enforcement requirements and to respond to any government or regulatory request or audit.

 

  • We may disclose Personal Information to enforce or apply any legal agreements between us and you, or if we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property or safety of our customers or others.

 

We may also disclose your Personal Information for any purpose disclosed when the information is provided, and for any other purpose with your consent.

Your Rights and Choices

 

Generally

 

You have certain choices regarding the Personal Information you provide to us.  You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies.  If you choose not to accept cookies, you may be unable to access certain parts or pages of our Website, or certain parts or features of our Website may not function properly.

 

If you do not wish to have your Personal Information used by us to contact you for informational or marketing purposes, you can opt out (1) by sending us an e-mail with your request to Info@chaseellliott.com, and/or (2) with respect to marketing communications by e-mail, by clicking on the “Unsubscribe” or similar link in the most recent e-mail you received from us and by following the prompts that appear.  This opt-out does not apply to information provided as a result of a product purchase, customer service or support service inquiry or other informational or transactional communications (e.g., an order confirmation or response to a specific inquiry or request you have made to us). Additionally, this opt-out does not apply to notifications about changes to our Website or this Policy.

Accessing and Correcting Your Information

 

You can review, change and request the deletion of certain portions of your Personal Information by sending us an e-mail at Info@chaseellliott.com to request access to any Personal Information that you have provided to us, or to request to correct or delete that Personal Information.  We will evaluate such requests on a case-by-case basis.  In certain cases we cannot delete your Personal Information.  For example, we cannot continue to maintain your account and/or your subscriptions without retaining certain portions of your Personal Information, so a request to delete certain forms of Personal Information may require the deletion of your account and cessation of services to you. We also may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

California “Shine The Light” Disclosure

 

The California Civil Code permits California residents with whom we have an established business relationship to request that we provide a list of certain categories of Personal Information that we have disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year.
