4. INFORMATION COLLECTION: In operating the App, Company may collect two types of information: a. “Personally Identifiable Information ” and b. “Non­-Personally Identifiable Information .”

These Photos and/or Videos are the sole responsibility of the Lister or Parker who originated such content. All content that users access created by other users do so at their own risk and will be solely responsible for any damage or loss to other users or any other party resulting therefrom. Sometimes, users may delete or remove their content, either themselves or through a request made through the App. When their content is deleted, it will be handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy. The Listers and the Parkers allow Pied Parker to take photos of Parkers and Listers and their vehicles at or near the parking spaces. Pied Parker will not disclose any of these recordings without a user’s permission unless Pied Parker are required by law to do so (for example, if required to do so by a court order or for the purposes of preventing fraud or other crimes ).

10. When you order products or services, we may also ask you to provide us with your credit card, debit card, or financial account information.

IF YOU DO NOT PROVIDE THE MANDATORY INFORMATION FOR A PARTICULAR ACTIVITY THAT REQUIRES SAID INFORMATION, YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO ENGAGE IN THE ACTIVITY.

27. REMARKET. We may remarket your Personally Identifiable Information; remarketing is a way for Company to connect with users that have previously visited our App or Service, when they go to other sites. Third ­party marketing vendors may be hired by Company to perform remarketing services. As a result, third­ party vendors, including, but not limited to, Google, may show Company advertisements based on a user’s prior visits to our App. Third ­party vendors including, but not limited to, Google use cookies to serve advertisements based on a user’s prior visits to our App. In some examples, users may opt out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting the Google advertising opt-­out page at: http://www.google.com/privacy_ads.html Opens a new window.

IF YOU ARE LOCATED OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES AND CHOOSE TO PROVIDE PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION TO US, WE MAY TRANSFER YOUR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION TO THE UNITED STATES AND PROCESS IT THERE. YOUR CONSENT TO THIS POLICY FOLLOWED BY YOUR SUBMISSION OF SUCH PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION REPRESENTS YOUR AGREEMENT TO THAT TRANSFER.

30. NON­-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION. We use Non­-Personally Identifiable Information to display content according to your preference, analyze our App and Service traffic, trouble shoot, administer the App and the Service, gather demographic information, comply with applicable law, and cooperate with law enforcement activities.

34. UPDATING INFORMATION. You may update your own Personally Identifiable Information that is editable on your account on our App or used through our Service. Unfortunately, we do not maintain any procedures for you to review or request changes to the Non-­Personally Identifiable Information or other Personally Identifiable Information that we collect through your interaction with our Service but not directly through an accessible form.

Additionally, copies of data may temporarily retain information about users as a regular course of Company’s data protection and disaster prevention and recovery practices.

35. ANTI-PHISHING. Identity theft and the practice currently known as “phishing” are of great concern to Company. Safeguarding information to help protect you from 15 identity theft is a top priority.
