At Carson Toyota we are committed to honoring the privacy of our on-line customers
and visitors to our Websites. We recognize the importance to you of maintaining
an appropriate level of privacy and security for the personal information we
collect from you over the Internet. The following discloses our Website information
gathering and use practices and is limited to the protection and use of personal
information collected by us in the online environment. Your access to and use
of our site are subject to this policy and any other Terms of Use, Disclaimer
or policies posted by us. Please note that this privacy statement applies only
to this site and not to the Websites of our advertisers or of other companies

What Kinds of Information Does Carson Toyota collect and Use?
The only personally identifiable information we collect about visitors is provided
voluntarily. In general, you can visit our Website without telling us who you
are or revealing any personal information about yourself. However, some portions
of our Website may be accessible only to users who have registered with us (and
who may be asked to provide certain information as part of the registration
or login process). In addition, our Web servers may use "cookies"
(described below) to collect information about visitors such as domain names,
but not your e-mail addresses. This information may be aggregated to measure
such things as the number of visits, average time spent on the site, number
of pages viewed, and methods by which our site was found. Carson Toyota uses
such information to evaluate the use of our site and to continuously improve
the content and services being provided.
At times we may ask you for contact information or conduct on-line surveys
in order to better understand your needs so that we can provide you with a customized
experience. If we wish to use this information other than as set forth in this
statement, we will let you know at the time of collection. We will take commercially
reasonable steps to safeguard this information from unauthorized access.
When you access your account information, order a service or make a payment
on-line, request product or service information, send us e-mail, we will ask
you to provide individually-identifiable information to us. When you supply
information about yourself for a specific purpose, we use the information for
that purpose and to manage the internal operations and security of our Website
consistent with the Terms of Use and policies established from time to time
governing this site. Such purpose may involve the disclosure of such information
to unaffiliated companies/vendors where necessary to and for the limited purpose
of processing your request, processing a transaction authorized by you or providing
you with products or services. In addition, we believe it may be necessary to
share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding
illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats
to the physical safety of any person, violations of Carson Toyota's Terms of
Use, or as otherwise required by law.
Who Has Access to This Information?
Unless we specifically disclose it to you at the time of collection or subsequently
obtain your approval, we will not make visitor or customer-specific information
that is gathered on our site available to unaffiliated organizations for commercial
purposes unrelated to the business of Carson Toyota. Carson Toyota uses this
information to help us deliver the services you have requested, or to design
or offer specific products or services that we believe will be useful to you.
While we may use this information to contact you or to send materials to you
for marketing purposes, we will take commercially reasonable steps to safeguard
such information from unauthorized access by any other parties. As we strive
to meet the needs or our customers, we may disclose personally identifiable
information we collect, as described above, to companies and vendors that perform
marketing or other services on our behalf or with whom we have joint marketing
agreements so that we may provide a full range of products and services to you.
Our policy is to prohibit these companies from otherwise selling or disclosing
the personal information we provide.
Certain federal, state and local laws or government regulations may require
us to disclose non-public personal information about you. In these circumstances,
we will use reasonable efforts to disclose only the information required by
law, subpoena or court order to be disclosed.

Children
Carson Toyota recognizes the importance of children's safety and privacy on
the Internet. For this reason and to comply with certain laws, we do not intentionally
collect personal, individually identifiable information from children under
the age of 13, nor do we offer content targeted to children under 13. Children
should always ask their parents or guardians for permission before disclosing
any information online.
Security
Carson Toyota maintains physical, electronic and procedural safeguards designed
to protect the confidentiality of personal information provided by you at our
Website. For example, unique passcodes or passwords are required to access a
number of our Website services. In addition to requiring the use of a unique
passcode or password, all payments processed through our Website require personal
transactional information provided by you to be sent in a "Secure Session"
using Secure Socket Layer encryption technology. This technology encrypts -
or scrambles - your financial or credit card account information to help prevent
unauthorized parties from reading it. We regularly test and update our technology
to help protect your personal information. However, such precautions do not
guarantee that our Website is invulnerable to all security breaches. Carson
Toyota makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation that use of our Website
is protected from all viruses, security threats or other vulnerabilities and
that your information will always be secure. When doing business with others,
such as advertisers to whom you can link from our site, you should consider
the separate security and privacy policies of those other sites.
Links to Other Sites
For the convenience of our visitors and customers, this Website may contain
links to other sites. While we generally try to link only to sites that share
similar high standards and respect for privacy, we are not responsible for the
content, products or services offered or the privacy and security practices
employed by these other sites.
Revisions
Because of the evolving nature of the technologies that we use and the way that
we conduct business, we may amend this policy from time to time. We will post
any revisions on this site.
