Information Collected and "Cookies"
This section of our Privacy Policy applies to
all information collected by or submitted to MaltaAuto.ae . The information
that we collect from you helps us personalize and continually improve upon your
MaltaAuto.ae shopping experience. You have the option not to provide certain
information; however, withholding information may prevent you from being able
to take full advantage of some of our Web Site's features.
When you visit our Site, we automatically
receive and store any information you enter on our Web Site. For example, you
provide information when you: search for a product; place an order through MaltaAuto.ae;
place an item in your shopping cart; browse our Site; provide information in
your account; communicate with us by phone, chat, or e-mail; complete a
questionnaire or any other way. As a result of those actions, you might supply
us with such information as your: name, address, e-mail address, phone numbers,
financial information (such as credit card or similar payment information),
transactional information (based on your activities on the Site and content you
generate or that relates to your account), shipping information, billing
information (and other information you provide to purchase or ship an item),
community discussions, chats, dispute resolution, correspondence through the
Site, and correspondence sent to us. We use this information to market products
to you on the Site and through e-mail, do internal research on your interests,
and to help us better understand and serve you.
We also store certain types of information
when you interact with us on our Site. For example, we use "cookies"
and can obtain certain information from your web browser. By transferring these
alphanumeric identifiers or "cookies" that your browser creates at
our request in an approved and standardized place on your computer, MaltaAuto.ae
assigns you a unique customer code and records information about your activity
on our Site. When you visit or return to our Site, we read the cookie to
identify you as one of our customers and help you recall orders or preferences
you have selected. The cookie also enables us to recall your past activities, post
your account data, send e-mail to you, and tailor Site elements and special
offers to you. The cookie does not retain your billing information, nor does it
save any of your personally identifiable information in an explicit fashion.
Most Web browsers accept cookies by default, but allow users to reject cookies
by changing the browser preferences. If you have set up your browser to reject
cookies, some aspects of our Site, including our Shopping Cart, will not work
properly. This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by MaltaAuto.ae only
and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
Whenever you interact with us and our Site, we
collect, store, and analyze some data about you, which may include the full
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) click stream to, through and from our Web Site,
including date and time; cookie number; products you viewed or searched for or
placed in your shopping cart; and the phone number you used to call our 800
number. Your IP address is used for MaltaAuto.ae internal use only and helps us
diagnose problems with our server and administer our Web Site. We also
automatically track certain information about your activities on our Site.
These may include: browser type and version, operating system and platform, statistics
on page views, traffic to and from the Site, ad data, standard web log
information, and purchase history. We use this information to market products
to you on the Site and through e-mail, do internal research on your interests,
and to help us better understand and serve you. If you are a registered MaltaAuto.ae
customer or if you make a purchase on our Site, we link this
automatically-collected data to your personally identifiable information. We
may collect and measure session information, including page response times,
download errors, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction
information (such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs), and methods used to
browse away from the page.
When you purchase products from us you are
required to provide us with your email address. We use your email address to
keep you updated on the status of your order. We use this to send you your
order confirmation, tracking numbers and other pertinent information about your
order such as notifications on shipping delays. You will also receive product
updates, recommendations, special announcements as well as email-only discounts
from MaltaAuto.ae. You can always stop these emails by clicking on the
unsubscribe link found on every email we send you or by emailing us at privacy@MaltaAuto.ae We respect your privacy and will never rent or
sell your email address to external marketing companies.
We might also receive information about you
from other sources and add it to our account information. Examples of these
include: updated delivery and address information from our carriers or other
third parties (which we use to correct our records and deliver your next
purchase or communication more easily); page-view information from some
merchants with which we operate co-branded businesses or for which we provide
technical, fulfillment, advertising, or other services; search term and search
result information including paid listings. Supplemental information received
from third parties may also include credit history information from credit
bureaus and third-party credit card fraud detection services, which we use to
help prevent and detect fraud . Also, if the information you provide cannot be
verified, we may ask you to send us additional information (such as your driver
license, credit card statement, and/or a recent utility bill or other
information confirming your address), or to answer additional questions online
to help verify your information.
We use third-party advertising companies to
serve ads on our behalf. These companies may use a cookie or an action tag to
track your response to their advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of
their advertising or to award incentives or points to their members who respond
to their advertisements. MaltaAuto.ae has no access to or control over these
cookies. By using these action tags MaltaAuto.ae does not gain access to any of
your information collected by these advertisers nor does it share any of your
personally identifiable information such as your name, telephone number or
address with these companies unless the advertiser or MaltaAuto.ae otherwise
notifies you. Please click here in order to learn more about the information
collection practices of some of the third-party advertising companies we may
use. Please click here in order to learn more about the "opt-out"
procedures of some of the third-party advertising companies we may use.
Retargeting
MaltaAuto.ae is part of the Google AdWords
Remarketing program. Google Remarketing may assign a cookie to track visitors
coming and leaving pages or areas of a website. This information is then used
to generate Remarketing Lists of visitors that left the site from that
particular area or page and may be used to tailor and serve ad content on the
Google Display Network that target these groups of users.
MaltaAuto.ae has no access to or control over
these third party cookies and does not gain access to any of your information
collected by Google nor does it share any of your personally identifiable
information such as your name, telephone number, e-mail, and home address with
the Google Display Network of sites unless the site or MaltaAuto.ae otherwise
notifies you. If you choose to customize your ads preferences or outright
prevent Google's use of cookies during your browsing sessions, you may do so by
visiting the Google Advertising
Opt-out page. Alternatively, you
may also choose to opt out of receiving cookies from other third party ad
servers simultaneously through the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) Opt-out Tool.
MaltaAuto.ae occasionally enters into
cooperative marketing arrangements with independent companies. Under these
cooperative marketing arrangements, our Site may display the name and/or
brand(s) of the independent company. Personally identifiable information that
you supply to us while you are on our Site, whether or not our Site displays a
name or brand of another company, will be handled in accordance with this MaltaAuto.ae
Privacy Policy and will not be shared with the cooperative marketing company
unless MaltaAuto.ae otherwise notifies you.
Use of Information
To carry out certain business functions, such
as order fulfillment or e-mail delivery, we sometimes hire other companies to
perform these functions on our behalf. These companies have access to the
information needed to perform their functions, but are required to keep it
secure and confidential and not use it for any other purpose than completing
their contractual requirements to MaltaAuto.ae. As a part of the normal process
of completing your purchase, MaltaAuto.ae may provide your personal data to a
third party payment processor, depending on your chosen method of payment. Any
credit card or similar payment information you submit is used in billing for
the specific transaction in which the information was submitted unless
otherwise disclosed. Payment information is stored for a time on our secure
servers to allow the processing of refunds or to respond to customer inquiries.
From time-to-time MaltaAuto.ae may provide you
the opportunity to participate in contests or surveys on our Site. If you
participate, we will request certain personally identifiable information from
you. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and you
therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
MaltaAuto.ae may use aggregate, non-personally
identifying information for purposes that we deem necessary. For instance, we
will use this non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our
Web Site and to share with advertisers for marketing and promotional purposes.
However, in these instances we do not disclose anything that could be used to
identify you. We do not use or share the personally identifiable information
provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described herein without
providing you an opportunity to opt-out of such operations.
It is possible that in the future MaltaAuto.ae
or its assets may be acquired by another company. It is also possible that MaltaAuto.ae
may partner with or purchase another company to continue to do business as a
combined entity. In the event that this occurs, it is possible that our
customer information may be transferred to the new business entity as one of MaltaAuto.ae
assets. In such an event, we will update this Privacy Policy to notify you of
such change in ownership or control of your personal information.
Compliance with Law and Fraud Protection
We may collect and disclose any information,
including personally identifiable and transactional information, we deem
necessary, in our sole discretion, to comply with any applicable law,
regulation, legal process or governmental request. We may collect and possibly
share personally identifiable information and any other information available
to us in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal
activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the
physical safety of any personal or as otherwise required by law. We may also
exchange information, including personally identifiable information, with other
companies and organizations for credit fraud protection and risk reduction.
Secure Encryption
We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology,
which is supported by the vast majority of modern Internet browsers. SSL works
best when you are using the latest 128-bit encryption version of Microsoft
Internet Explorer. SSL technology represents the highest level of security
available on the Internet. It automatically encrypts information traveling over
the Internet, verifies the identity of the transacting servers through
certificates and digital signatures, and confirms that the integrity of message
content is maintained throughout transmission.
MaltaAuto.ae minimum requirement for
transactions is the standard 40-bit or 56-bit encryption supported by the
Internet Explorer 5.0 browser. If you are not using this browser, please refer
to your browser's documentation for information on its security features. We transmit
the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during
order processing, but we reveal only the last four digits of your credit card
numbers when confirming an order in compliance with Payment Card Industry Data
Security Standard.
Credit Card Security
Our servers use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), an
encryption technology that works with Netscape, Microsoft Internet Explorer,
AOL, and Apple's Safari's browser. This ensures that only MaltaAuto.ae can read
your personal information. We reveal only the last four digits of your credit
card numbers when confirming an order. We will, however, transmit the entire
credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order
processing.
After you click on the "checkout"
button, be sure that the Site's URL always begins with https://www.MaltaAuto.ae
/ The "s" in "https://" at the beginning of the URL means
you are logging into a secure page. If the URL does not begin with https, you
are not on any MaltaAuto.ae page.
MaltaAuto.ae has also obtained a digital
certificate from Network Solutions, a leading provider of Internet trust
services. When you enter a secured portion of our Site, an image of a closed
lock or a solid key should appear in the bottom bar of your browser window. If
you click on this image, a small popup window displaying site-security
information will appear. This certificate guarantees that your personal
information is being transmitted in a secure (encrypted) form to an MaltaAuto.ae
Web server, not to an unknown or unauthorized server.
MaltaAuto.ae is regularly tested and certified
to pass industry-leading third party security assessment services testing. This
industry-leading third party security assessment services testing helps protect
you from identity theft and credit card fraud.
Ultimately, your personal information is
protected by the password you created when you registered for an account at MaltaAuto.ae
on the "Log-In / Quick Checkout" page. Please keep this password
confidential. No representative of MaltaAuto.ae will ever ask you for your
password. The confidentiality of your password is yours to protect.
Information Security
We take appropriate security measures to
protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure
or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection,
storage and processing practices and security measures, including appropriate encryption
and physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems
where we store personal data. We restrict access to personal information to
employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to
process it on our behalf. These individuals are bound by confidentiality
obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and
criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.
