IowaMotors.com respects privacy of Internet Users and does not collect personally identifying information without the Internet User's permission.
This statement discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this site. If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact Customer Service.
Information logged
When you visit this site, our server logs information which is provided by your browser.
This information is used to create summary statistics which allow us to assess the number
of visitors to the different sections of our site, discover what information is most and least used,
determine technical design specifications, and help us make our site more useful to visitors. The
information logged is as follows :
the type of browser you are using;
the date and time of your visit;
your top level domain name (for example .com, .gov, .au, .uk etc);
the address of the referring site;
your server's IP address (a number which is unique to the machine through which you are connected to the Internet: usually one of your service provider's machines).
the address of the pages accessed and any documents downloaded.
No attempt will be made to identify users or their browsing activities, unless disclosure is required by law or due to a mandatory requirement of a Court, Governmental Agency or Regulatory Authority. We use the information only for statistical analysis or systems administration purposes.
Electronic mail addresses
We will record your email address if you transmit it to us electronically either in an email message or via a web page form. It will only be used for the purpose for which you provide it. We will not disclose it without your consent.
On-line Forms
Some pages of this web site provide the facility for users to fill out an online form for the purpose of subscribing to a special service or to provide us with feedback about our web site. We will ask you to provide only enough personal information to fulfil that purpose. We will record it to facilitate follow up and for statistical analysis. Only authorised staff will have access to this information.
Cookies
To help us tailor our website to the needs and interests of our visitors, we keep track of the pages visited by our users by placing a cookie, a small entry in text file, on your hard drive. The cookie contains an ID number that allows us to track the pages you've visited. We aggregate this data with data on the pages visited by other users to track overall visitor traffic patterns. We use this information to improve our site by making it more responsive to the needs of our users. We also use cookies to make sure you don't see the same ad repeatedly during a single visit to our site. Cookies don't reveal personal information; the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. Cookies can't read unrelated data off your hard drive. Our advertisers and those who provide products and/or services through our site may also assign their own cookies, a process we don't control. We don't have access to these cookies or to any information they contain. The help function on most web browsers contains information on how to set your browser to notify you before accepting a cookie or to disable cookies entirely. However, if you don't accept cookies, you won't be able to take advantage of various features on our site that are available to other visitors.
Links to other sites
This site contains links to other sites. IowaMotors.com is not responsible for the privacy practices of these web sites and has no knowledge of whether cookies or other tracking devices are used on linked sites. If you have any concerns regarding your privacy you should ensure you are aware of the privacy policies of those sites.
Other Disclosures
We may occasionally release information about our visitors when release is appropriate to comply with law,
to enforce our Legal Notice, or to protect the rights, property or safety of visitors to our site,
our customers, the public or IowaMotors.com. As our business grows, we may buy or sell various assets.
In the unlikely event that IowaMotors.com, one of its business units, or substantially all of its
assets is acquired by another company, information on our visitors would be among the transferred assets.
We also may allow others to search some of our databases (our listings database, for example) and to analyze
the data they find there or aggregate it with other data, either for their business purposes, or ours. Though
some of the information in our databases may be personally identifying (such as the contact information
included in a vehicle listing), we'll only allow searches of the portions of our database that contain
information that is otherwise publicly available on our website.
Security
Information we gather on our website is stored within IowaMotors.com-controlled databases
(or databases hosted on our behalf) on servers maintained in protected environments.
However, no physical or electronic security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the
security of our servers or databases, nor can we guarantee that information you supply won't
be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet. And, of course, any information
you include in a vehicle listing is available to anyone with Internet access.
Changes to Privacy Policy
If we need to change our privacy policy at some point in the future, we'll post the changes to
this Privacy Policy before they take effect. By visiting IowaMotors.com, you agree that your visit,
and any dispute over privacy, is governed by this Privacy Statement and our Terms of Use.
