TIRE STUDIO’S COMMITMENT TO PRIVACY

Tire Studio and its affiliates (collectively, "Tire Studio") respect individual privacy, and we value the confidence of our associates, customers, vendors and others with whom we do business. Tire Studio strives to process Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) in a manner consistent with the laws of the countries in which we do business.

This Online Privacy Policy applies to the information that you provide or that we gather in connection with your use of Tire Studio’s websites.

DEFINITIONS

For purposes of this Policy, the following definitions shall apply:

"Personally Identifiable Information" means any information or set of information, whether alone or in combination with other Personally Identifiable Information, gathered, processed, used or stored by Tire Studio that is sufficient to identify an individual. Personally Identifiable Information does not include information that is anonymous, nor does it include publicly available information that has not been combined with non-public Personally Identifiable Information.

This Online Privacy Policy is applicable to web domains operated by Tire Studio and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates.  Other websites operated by Tire Studio may have separate and additional privacy terms or policies.  Tire Studio encourages you to read these additional terms or policies before utilizing these websites, as your utilization will be governed by those additional privacy terms and/or policies.

INFORMATION COLLECTION

Some functions of our websites may request that you voluntarily supply Tire Studio with PII including, but not limited to your name, email address, phone number, vehicle type, and physical address for purposes such as user registration, making or initiating a purchase, arranging for services, requesting feedback on products and services, participating in online surveys, and otherwise communicating with you. In those instances, you may decline to provide your PII, but as a result you may not be able to access or use those features. Tire Studio also may retain electronic communications you send to customer service representatives, webmasters, installers, or other associates or service providers.

Tire Studio websites track information about visits to those sites. For example, statistics are compiled that show the daily requests received for particular files on a site, and what countries those requests come from. These aggregated statistics are used to customize Tire Studio websites, and may also be provided to others.

Certain Tire Studio sites may use "cookies" or "web beacons." A "cookie" is an element of data that a website can send to your browser, which may be stored on your computer, device or system. Cookies allow Tire Studio to better serve visitors to Tire Studio websites by offering a tailored experience. A "web beacon," also referred to as a "spotlight" or "pixel tag," is used to recognize unique cookies and assist us in determining which advertisements bring users to a specific website or page. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. If you decline to accept the cookie, it will also disable the web beacon.  Cookies collect information that might relate to you, your preferences, or your device.  This information is used to make the site work as you expect it to, provide a more personalized web experience, connect you with your social media networks, and tailor advertising to better match your interests. 

Information Tire Studio collects may be stored on third party data storage systems, and in those instances, Tire Studio requires those third parties to employ security practices and systems designed to protect the security of the information.

Promotions and offers you receive may be based on information you provide in response to surveys, information you provide in connection with product and service inquiries, transactions conducted through or facilitated by Tire Studio websites, or other communications made to or through a Tire Studio website. If you do not want to receive email or other communications from Tire Studio, please adjust your communications preferences.  Tire Studio will use reasonable efforts to address all requests to remove names from any postal mail or email lists.

DISCLOSURE

Tire Studio will not disclose PII to third parties, other than as we may inform you, including as described in this Policy or where such disclosure is required by law or is in relation to a judicial or government action or investigation. 

Tire Studio may disclose PII to third parties that assist Tire Studio in promoting and marketing its products and services; storing and analyzing the PII; conducting user and consumer ratings, reviews and surveys; communicating with you on Tire Studio’s behalf; and processing and fulfilling transactions, including tire purchases and installations and/or other vehicle services; and as otherwise necessary to provide promotional communications or services to website users and customers.

Payment processing, including debit and credit card payment processing, is performed by third party service providers and Tire Studio does not process or store your credit or debit card information in connection with transactions occurring through Tire Studio websites.

OTHER WEBSITES

Tire Studio websites may contain links to non-Tire Studio sites, and we make every effort to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy. However, Tire Studio is not responsible for the content of or the privacy practices employed by non-Tire Studio sites.

CHILDREN

Tire Studio does not knowingly collect any PII (such as name, address and telephone number) from children under 13 years of age through any Tire Studio website. Tire Studio websites specifically instruct children under 13 not to submit such information to this website. Tire Studio does not allow children under 13 to register for or participate in contests or promotions on this site. However, if the parent or guardian of a child under 13 believes that child has provided Tire Studio with PII, that parent or guardian should contact Tire Studio if they want this information deleted from Tire Studio’s systems. If Tire Studio obtains knowledge that it has PII about a child under 13 in retrievable form in its files, Tire Studio will delete that information from existing files. In addition, anyone under 18 years of age should seek his or her parent's or guardian's permission prior to using or disclosing any PII on this site.
