At Enterprise Rent-A-Car Company (“Enterprise”) we respect the privacy of our customers. We have implemented this privacy policy to explain to you how we use and protect personal information we may gather from you by means of this Web Site (“Privacy Policy”). For information about our privacy policy relating to how we use and protect personal information we may gather from you in Canada by means other than by this Web Site, see www.enterprise.com/about/privacyPolicy/canadianofflinePolicy.html. Any information that you voluntarily provide to Enterprise on this Web Site with will be treated with the highest standards of confidentiality and security. Enterprise may gather information about you from this Web Site and from other sources, such as other Enterprise affiliated Web Sites, information you provide at our physical locations, information you provide to our affiliated companies, including parent and subsidiary companies or any entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with said entity (“Affiliates”), and information provided to our business partners. This Privacy Policy applies only to information gathered from this Web Site and does not apply to information about you that we may gather from other sources, including off-line data collected by Enterprise, our Affiliates or any business partner. Except as otherwise provided below, we do not provide any personally identifiable information about you that we obtain by means of this Web Site to any unaffiliated third party unless we have your express permission. As a general rule, you will not be required to provide personally identifiable information as a condition of browsing this Web Site. When such information is gathered, we will gather the minimum information from you necessary to facilitate transactions requested by you, to improve this Web Site and your customer experience, and to make future visits to this Web Site easier and more personalized for you. We do not sell or rent any personal identifiable information. WHAT INFORMATION IS COLLECTED
We collect the following information:
Failing to provide information that is required to complete certain transactions will not inhibit your ability to browse the Web Site, but it may prevent you from being able to complete certain transactions The general categories of information we gather include: Personal User Information: We may require that you obtain a user name and password to log on to certain portions of our Web Site. We may also require that you supply your name, telephone number, e-mail address, or other personally identifiable information in order to facilitate the specified transactions listed above. We may also require additional personal information to provide specific services to you as set forth above. Anonymous User Information: Certain non-personal, anonymous information may be automatically provided to our Web servers by your computer. Additionally, certain other information (such as cookies, described below) may be transmitted by our Web server to your computer. That information does not contain any personally identifiable information. Specific types of anonymous information are described below. IP Addresses: For each visitor to our Web Site, our Web server automatically recognizes the visitor’s domain name or IP address (where possible), but not the visitor’s e-mail address. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer when you connect to the Internet. As part of the protocol of the Internet, Web servers can identify your computer by its IP address. In addition, Web servers may be able to identify the type of browser you are using or even the type of computer. We collect IP addresses and related information for the purposes of system administration, to assess the traffic to our Web Site and to maintain and improve our Web Site. While it is not our practice to link IP addresses to your personally identifiable information, we reserve the right to use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to protect the compelling interest of our Web Site, customers or others, or to comply with laws, court orders, or law enforcement requests. Use of Cookies: Cookies are short strings of text sent from a Web server to a Web browser when the browser accesses a Web Site. In simplest terms, when the browser requests a page from the Web server that originally sent it the cookie, the browser sends a copy of the cookie back to that Web server. A cookie typically contains, among other things, the name of the cookie, a unique identification number, and an expiration date and domain name information. Cookies are used for personalization, tracking and other purposes. Cookies may be “session-only” or “persistent.” Persistent cookies last for more than one visit and are typically used to allow a visitor to our Web Site to personalize their experience. We may use cookies to analyze the traffic on our Web Site (such as total visitors and pages viewed), to personalize features or save you the trouble of retyping your name or other information, and to make improvements to the Web Site based on the data we collect. We do not save passwords or other sensitive information in cookies. The use of cookies has become a standard in the Internet industry, especially at Web Sites that provide any kind of personalized service. Cookies may also be placed by third parties prior to or during your visit to the Web Site. Our Affiliates and business partners may use these cookies in connection with pixel tracking (discussed below) or otherwise. We do not control these cookies. The use of cookies by advertisers has become standard practice in the Internet industry. Pixel Tracking: Enterprise, our Affiliates or business partners may employ a common technique usually referred to as “pixel tracking” to measure the effectiveness of marketing and advertisements, as well as compile aggregate usage statistics. Pixel tracking, which may be used in connection with advertisements on other sites, on our Web Site or in e-mail messages, involves the use of pixel tags (also known as “clear gifs,” “Web beacons” or “1-by-1 gifs”) that are not visible to the user of the site and consist of a few lines of computer coding. For example, if you visit our Web Site from an advertisement on another site, the pixel tag will reference the cookie you received when you clicked on the advertisement. The pixel tag also may register this activity with a business partner to allow us to count the number of times or when an advertisement is accessed. This data is collected for use in our marketing and research. Personally identifiable information about you is not collected by pixel tracking, nor is any tracking information generated from the pixel tag allowed to be used for any other purpose other than to report Web Site activity to us. Special Promotions: Some users may request or authorize Enterprise to contact them by e-mail or telephone. Provided you have expressly opted in and/or have received an e-mail opt-in confirmation, we may use your e-mail address to provide you with special promotions, offers, or other information. Additionally, you may specifically authorize us, by opting-in, to share your e-mail address with our Affiliates and business partners. If you opt-in, our Affiliates and business partners may contact you via e-mail with a variety of special promotions, offers or other information that may be of interest to you. You have the right to opt-out of any special promotions, offers or other information requested from Enterprise at all times. Other Information: We may also request other personally identifiable information from you, or you may affirmatively provide us with information. As a general matter, we try to limit the information we gather to the minimum information we need to perform the applicable services and to improve your customer experience. If you send an e-mail to our Web Site or otherwise affirmatively provide us with information beyond what we request, we will treat such information as having your consent to collect, retain and use the information for purposes reasonably associated with the purpose for which you provided the information. For example, we may retain a copy of the e-mail and any personally identifiable information you may have supplied in the e-mail with respect to a customer service question to help us evaluate our service, train our employees and provide better service to our customers. We may also gather information about your transactions (for example, location of rental and type of automobile) and, as permitted by applicable law, information we receive from credit reporting bureaus and other third parties, such as credit history. This information may include credit card numbers and driver’s license numbers. WHO IS COLLECTING THIS INFORMATION While you are using our Web Site, you may be linked or directed to other third party sites outside our Web Site that are beyond our control. For example, you might click on a hyperlink that will take you off our Web Site. Third party Web Sites may have a privacy policy different from our Privacy Policy. You should review the applicable privacy policies of all other Web Sites before providing personally identifiable information in connection with such sites. We are not responsible for any actions or privacy policies of such third parties. In addition, advertisers who assist us with pixel tracking may collect a limited amount of information to help us measure the effectiveness of ads, usually by placing cookies on your hard drive. We vigorously protect the information of our customers. Business partners will not have any opportunity to access any of our customer data unless they are necessary parties to complete on-line transactions or you have specifically consented. In either case, that business partner must agree to confidentiality provisions that limit disclosure and use of the data. HOW COLLECTED INFORMATION IS USED
If you choose to opt-in and/or receive an e-mail opt-in confirmation, information you provide may be used to send you e-mails about special offers, promotions or other information. Again, if you choose to opt-in, our Affiliates and business partners may use the information you provide to send you e mails about special offers, promotions or other information. You have the right to opt-out of any special promotions, offers or other information requested from Enterprise at all times. We also use collected information to learn more about how visitors use our Web Site and to measure areas of interest in order to provide features and improve the functionality of our Web Site. Data collected online may also be combined or merged with information you provide to us by means other than this site as part of the standard business operations of Enterprise and its Affiliates; provided, however, this Privacy Policy applies only to data collected on-line. If the same information about you is gathered from this Web Site and also from other sources with different privacy policies, Enterprise may elect, in its sole discretion, to treat such information in accordance with the privacy policy that least restricts our use and disclosure of such information. Aggregate, anonymous information (information that is not personally identifiable) obtained from the operation of our Web Site is also used to help us operate and maintain our site, study traffic patterns and generally learn about the usage of our Web Site. We attempt to retain information we collect for commercially reasonable periods of time or in accordance with specific policies or as required by law. Information collected for a specified purpose will only be used for that purpose and, after a reasonable period of time, will no longer be actively stored when that purpose has been fulfilled. Inactive data may, however, continue to be used for statistical, marketing, archiving, and other purposes. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT, UNLESS PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOUR USE AND/OR CONTINUED USE OF THIS WEB SITE SIGNIFIES YOUR EXPRESS CONSENT THAT INFORMATION MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO OR STORED ON SERVERS AND PROCESSED OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY OF YOUR RESIDENCE, INCLUDING, THE UNITED STATES, THE UNITED KINGDOM, IRELAND, GERMANY, AND CANADA. PLEASE ALSO BE AWARE THAT THE PRIVACY LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OR OTHER COUNTRIES WHERE INFORMATION MAY BE STORED MAY NOT BE AS COMPREHENSIVE OR OFFER AS MUCH PROTECTION AS THE LAWS OF OTHER COUNTRIES. WITH WHOM THE INFORMATION MAY BE SHARED Except for the following exceptions, we will not knowingly authorize the disclosure of your personally identifiable information gathered from this Web Site to third parties without your consent. First, we may disclose user information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, customers or other users of our Web Site, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. Second, we may disclose user information when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is required by applicable law. Third, we may disclose user information to business partners and/or third parties, subject to confidentiality agreements, for administrative or other business purposes, as is necessary to facilitate on-line transactions or to maintain and improve our services. Aggregate information (without personally identifiable information) may be used for internal business purposes, marketing purposes or shared with business partners for Enterprise‘s business purposes. We do not collect any sensitive information about you (i.e., personal information specifying racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership or information pertaining to personal or intimate details of an individual’s life). Please be aware that third party Web Sites linked from our Web Site may collect personally identifiable information and/or sensitive information and are not covered by this Privacy Policy.

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY CHOICES YOU CAN MAKE ABOUT YOUR INFORMATION We will give you an opportunity to opt-out of the gathering of your personally identifiable information, specific uses of your personally identifiable information and any marketing promotions in accordance with the procedures set out in the section below, “Correcting and Changing Your Information.” By adjusting the settings in your browser, you can refuse to accept cookies or give yourself the opportunity to accept or reject cookies, or receive notice of cookies.
