Cookies


In collecting information, we may utilize cookies – small text files used to store information about users on the users' own computers – so that our website can recognize you as the same users across different visits to the website. These are also placed in outbound marketing emails to track engagement. You can configure your Internet browser system to warn you each time a cookie is being sent or to refuse cookies completely. Refusing to allow cookies could impact the functionality of our website. Cookies may be used to collect information about your browsing activities in order to provide you with more relevant content and promotional materials, on and off the website, and to help us understand your interests and improve the website.


Web beacons


We and our third-party partners may use web beacons, which is a technology that communicates information from your internet browser to a web server. Web beacons can be embedded in banners and links on vendor websites, videos or emails, and permit a web server to read certain types of information from your browser, check whether you have viewed a particular web page or email message, and determine, among other things, the time and date on which you viewed the web beacon, the IP address of your computer, and the URL of the web page from which the web beacon was viewed. We and our partners use web beacons for a variety of purposes, including to analyze the use of our website and in conjunction with cookies to improve the website and provide you with more relevant promotional materials.


User analytics and social media


Michelle Sells Trucks utilizes Google Analytics for user analytics and we may also use social media (e.g., Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, comments, requests and reviews) for purposes of information collection. Your use of social media sites is governed by the privacy policies of those sites. We do not capture or store your login information or other Personal Data for these services but session information or cookies may, however, be stored.


6. How we Use Automated Decision Making


We do not exclusively utilize automated decision making to make any decisions. However, we may use technology to automate the gathering and organization of information about an applicant. These reports may be used in determining whether or not to grant an applicant credit and in determining potential eligibility for additional credit.


7. What are Your Rights Related to Your Personal Data


You have the following rights in relation to your Personal Data:


· to ask us to provide you with information regarding the Personal Data we process concerning you;


· to rectify, update or complete inaccurate or incomplete Personal Data concerning you;


· to delete or request the erasure of Personal Data concerning you that we no longer have a lawful ground to use;

· to object to our processing of Personal Data concerning you on the basis of our, or of third-parties', legitimate interests;


· to obtain a copy of the Personal Data that you have provided to us.


Your exercise of these rights is subject to certain exemptions to safeguard the public interest (e.g. the prevention or detection of crime) and our interests (e.g. the maintenance of legal privilege). Where your exercise of any of the rights above is dependent on our action, we will abide by our legal obligation to take reasonable measures to ascertain your identity and the legitimacy of your request, and may ask you to disclose to us any information necessary for that purpose. We will respond to legitimate requests within a month of our receipt of the request. Pursuant to any such requests, we may retain certain data necessary to prevent fraud or future abuse or as otherwise required or permitted by law, including to comply with legal obligations we are subject to, as well as to establish, exercise and defend our legal claims.

To exercise of any of the rights above that are dependent on our action, you may contact us by email at sales@michellesellstrucks.com


8. Right to Lodge a Complaint


The General Data Protection Regulation gives you the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the European Union (or EEA) state where you work, normally live or where any alleged infringement of data protection laws occurred. The supervisory authority in the UK is the Information Commissioner who may be contacted at https://ico.org.uk/concerns/ or telephone: 0303 123 1113.


9. International Transfer of Your Information


Michelle Sells Trucks and its affiliates, service providers, and business partners, are domiciled in the United States and therefore, your Personal Data may be accessed by staff or other persons in, transferred to, and/or stored at, a destination outside the EEA in which data protection laws may be of a lower standard than in the EEA.


Where we transfer Personal Data from inside the EEA to outside the EEA, we may be required to take specific additional measures to safeguard the relevant Personal Data. Certain countries outside the EEA have been approved by the European Commission as providing essentially equivalent protections to EEA data protection laws and therefore no additional safeguards are required to export Personal Data to these jurisdictions. In countries which have not had these approvals (see the full list here), we will establish legal grounds justifying such transfer, such as EU Commission-approved model contractual clauses, or other legal grounds permitted by applicable legal requirements.


10. Changes to Privacy Policy


We reserve the right to modify or supplement this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make any material change to the Privacy Policy, we will notify you by email (sent to the e-mail address you specified) and/or update this Privacy Policy to include such changes. We recommend that you review this Privacy Policy regularly for changes. The date of this Privacy Policy, noted above, indicates the last time it was revised or materially changed. Checking the date allows you to determine whether there have been changes made since the last time you reviewed this Privacy Policy. By continuing to use our website after we make changes, you indicate your consent to each of those changes.


11. How we Protect Your Personal Data


Michelle Sells Trucks has established multiple avenues of protection to safeguard Personal Data. We use a variety of reasonable physical, technical, and administrative measures to safeguard information against loss. Our employees are only given access to files on an as-needed basis, thus limiting exposure of client information. Technologies and processes to protect Personal Data collected on our website include firewalls, strict role-based file security, security for servers and workstations (with managed patching and managed antivirus), SSL certificates for secure remote access and encryption technology for transmission of Personal Data. Our computer systems utilize password protection to prevent access by unauthorized personnel, and we employ other physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to help protect your non-public Personal Data.


However, no security technology is completely secure, and you should remember that email is not a secure means of communication. While we strive to protect the information that we maintain, due to the inherent nature of the Internet, we cannot (and do not) guarantee, and make no representation or warranty about, the security of any information that you transmit to us or which is stored by us.


Michelle Sells Trucks understands the importance of your privacy rights and takes their protection seriously. We recognize that you have placed your trust in us, and we strive to preserve that trust as a priority. Michelle Sells Trucks arranges for its employees to be educated on Michelle Sells Truck's privacy policies and procedures and, among other things, directs employees to adhere to Michelle Sells Truck's established guidelines. Michelle Sells Truck's will monitor the effectiveness of its privacy policies and procedures.


12. How Long We Store Your Personal Data


We shall store your Personal Data based on business needs and legal requirements. We retain your Personal Data for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which the information was collected, and any other permissible, related purpose. For example, we may retain certain Personal Data to comply with regulatory requirements regarding the retention of such data. When Personal Data is no longer needed, we securely destroy the data.
