How the Tool Works. For each visit to the site, the Tool: (1) identifies the traffic source for the visit; and (2) issues a unique visitor ID number and visitor traffic number. As the user navigates the site, the Tool may track and store the pages visited and features used. The Tool also may collect and link information provided through forms featured on the site or during phone calls with a visitor ID number. Using local storage, the Tool may also store data in the user's Internet browser or in a data repository on the user's device for purposes of associating the user with his or her user profile. The Tool operates only on the site and our phone system – it does not track information regarding your use of other sites or activities on other sites.

Purpose of Collection. Using the Tool, we collect personal information for purposes related to managing, marketing and developing our businesses as further described herein and including:

  • establishing and managing business relations with you
  • providing us with information in order to allow us to analyze usage of the site, improve the site, the Tool, and for development of new services and products;
  • marketing products and services to you; and
  • for other purposes related to the management of our relationship.

Adpearance further collects personal information for purposes of operating and administering the Tool for subscribers of the Tool, such as the Dealer and other third parties.

Information Collected and Usage of Information. The Tool creates a user profile including the user's visitor ID number and any information the user directly provides through the site or other interactions with the site and/or the company associated with the site (e.g., phone calls and chats). This information may include a user's personal information, such as name, personal phone number, home address, email address, and similar information, whether or not this information is complete or partially entered by the user. We will not ask for or knowingly associate financial information with your user profile. Unless the user provides us personal information, the information we collect using the Tool and which is associated with the user profile is limited to information automatically collected as a user browses and interacts with the site, such as the user's browser type, available plugins, Internet service provider, Internet protocol ("IP") address and/or mobile device ID, and pages visited, features used, and activities performed on the site. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the information collected and associated with a user profile is used, maintained and disclosed in accordance with the restrictions, consents, and permissions in this Tool Privacy Notice and any Additional Privacy Notices (if any), including obligations of confidentiality and restrictions on disclosure to third parties.

You expressly acknowledge and agree that the information associated with your user profile may be used to understand and analyze the usage of the site, and for the purposes of marketing products or services to you. In particular, where it is lawful to do so (please see additional note below on Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation), the Tool may automatically generate and send email marketing communications to you (to the extent you have provided your email address as part of your interactions with the site and/or the company associated with the site). The content of those email marketing communications may be based on the pages that you have visited and/or the features you have used on the site. To opt-out of receiving the email marketing communications generated by the Tool, please see the Opt-Out instructions below.

Third Party Disclosure. Unless required or permitted by law, the information associated with your user profile will not be used or disclosed to third parties other than for the purpose for which it was collected, without the user's prior consent.

Adpearance may disclose your personal information to such third parties who may provide services that facilitate the operation of the Tool, assist us in providing an improved customer experience to you, or assist us in providing improved services to Adpearance’s customers.

Blocking and/or Disabling the Tool. The Tool gathers information about the user's computer hardware and software configurations to identify the user each visit and associate the user with their existing user profile. Unlike a "cookie", and except for local storage discussed below, the system does not store a file on the user's computer; therefore, the user information gathered is not deleted when the user clears their cache and/or deletes their cookies. In order to disable the tool, see the Opt Out instructions below.

Opt-Out. The Tool's opt-out functionality is cookie based, so for it to work for you, your browser must allow third party cookies. If you change computers or browsers or delete this cookie, we will no longer know you have opted out, so you will need to opt-out again. To opt out, click here. Note that opting out of cookies on the Dealer’s site will not be an opt out with respect to the Tool.

You may also opt-out of, or withdraw your consent to (where the Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation applies) receiving email marketing communications generated by the Tool by sending a request to support@foureyes.io, or by clicking the unsubscribe link on any such email marketing communication you receive. Please note that clicking the unsubscribe link may only result in your no longer receiving marketing communications generated by the Tool; you may still receive other email marketing communications from the Dealer. If you opt out or withdraw consent with the Dealer or on the Dealer’s site, you will still also need to opt-out or withdraw your consent regarding the Tool as set out in this paragraph.

As noted above, the Tool may also collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage and application data caches. Browser web storage enables websites to store data in a browser on a device. When used in "local storage" mode, it enables data to be stored across sessions. Similarly, an application data cache is a data repository on a device. You may stop local storage from being used by modifying your Internet browser settings, but stopping local storage may result in the site having impaired or limited functionality. Furthermore, disabling local storage will not block the Tool from operating; rather, it will only prevent the Tool from collecting and storing information locally on your device. To disable the Tool, see the Opt-Out instructions above. Further, you should refer to the help provided by your Internet browser for the most up-to-date and accurate instructions on disabling local storage.

Data Retention. We keep information associated with your user profile for as long as we think is necessary or advisable to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, and we reserve the right to retain it to the full extent permitted by law. If required by law, a governmental order, or similar legal process, we will disclose your information.
