Colors automatically collects Usage Data (as described below) and may collect ZIP codes and other information in connection with your use of the Site (e.g., the type of Porsche you are looking for). Colors collects personally identifiable information only when you make it available through your use of the Site. You may be required to provide personally identifiable information to use certain services on this Site, including, but not limited to, the “Contact the Dealer/Seller" feature, the “Post Share” feature, to purchase and or create an online classified listing (“FS Ad") and account (“Account").

Passive Information Collection

The Site automatically collects information and may also customize your visit through technical means, including the following:

Cookies: Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer's hard drive by computers (or servers) to identify your computer.

Web Beacons: Web beacons (also known as pixel tags, internet tags, clear GIFs, or single-pixel GIFs) are electronic images embedded into a webpage.

IP Address Logs: Colors also logs Internet Protocol (IP) addresses - the location of your computer on the internet.

Cookies allow Colors to recognize you when you visit the Site, to personalize your experience and generally to serve you better. For example, if you enter your name, address or ZIP code on one of the Site's forms, it may be stored in a cookie so you do not have to enter it again on other forms on the Site. Cookies, web beacons and IP addresses are used to compile data regarding Site usage (e.g., what website you came from, what pages of the Site you visit, how long you were on the Site, what type of browser you are using, what website you went to). Web beacons may also be included in emails sent by Colors to determine when and if such emails are opened or forwarded. You can disable cookies or otherwise manage them through tools provided with your browser software and with third-party software packages. If you turn off cookies, many of the Site's features will not work as well or at all. Anonymous information regarding use of our Site and services that is collected and/or aggregated by or on behalf of Colors through the use of such technical means or otherwise is referred to in this Statement as "Usage Data."

Information Sharing

Colors shares the personally identifiable information that you provide with third parties in the following cases:

Affiliates. Colors may share your personally identifiable information with Affiliates on the condition that the Affiliates' disclosure and use of the information is consistent with this Statement.

Requests. If you request information or services through the Site, you agree that Colors may share personally identifiable information with third parties as may be necessary to provide such information to or perform such services for you. For example, if you use the Site's "Email the Seller” form in a vehicle listing to request a price quote from a seller or dealership, Colors will share the information you entered with that seller or dealership (or its designee). Personally identifiable information also may be included in reports to these third parties, but only when you have intended to submit the information to the third party as described above. After the information is provided to such third parties, the subsequent use or disclosure of such information is subject to those third parties' privacy policies and practices and Colors does not control their subsequent use or disclosure of information.

Sweepstakes/Promotions. In the event that you participate in a sweepstakes, contest or other promotion on the Site that is sponsored by Colors and a third party, Colors reserves the right to share personally identifiable information collected in conjunction with the sweepstakes, contest or promotion with the third party. After the information is provided to such third parties, the subsequent use or disclosure of such information is subject to those third parties' privacy policies and practices.

Direct Marketing. Except as provided herein, it is Colors policy not to disclose personally identifiable information of our customers to third parties specifically for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. If you are 18 years of age or older and have affirmatively agreed to receive third-party direct marketing materials, Colors may share personally identifiable information with third parties for direct marketing purposes. Although Colors will notify all third-party direct marketers that the information provided to them is confidential, the subsequent use or disclosure of such information is subject to those third parties' privacy policies and practices.

Service Providers. Colors may work with third parties that provide services on its behalf, including, among others, providers of analytical, attribution, development, promotional, research, credit card processing, technical and other services. For example, Colors may ask that a third party conduct an online survey or sweepstakes or send newsletters on its behalf. Similarly, if you make a payment to Colors by credit card, Colors may share your personally identifiable information and credit card information with a third party in order to process credit card transactions, or such information may be collected directly by the credit card processing service provider on Colors’s behalf. In such cases, Colors asks that the third party maintain your personally identifiable information as confidential and use the information only to perform the services specified by Colors.

Email List Opt-Outs. In the event Colors sends promotional emails to you on behalf of third-party advertisers and you inform Colors you wish to opt out of future promotional emails from a particular third party, Colors may share your email address with that third party so the third party may add you to its opt-out lists.

Other. Colors expressly reserves the right to release any personally identifiable information or other information you provide to third parties under the following circumstances: (a) when required by law or legal process, (b) to investigate and/or take action against illegal activity, suspected abuse or unauthorized use of the Site, (c) to protect the property or safety of our users or others, (d) to enforce our Terms of Service and (e) in connection with any sale or other transfer of ownership of all or a part of Colors. Further, if you make any personally identifiable information publicly available on the Site, Colors reserves the right to disclose such information to third parties, including, without limitation, Colors Affiliates and third-party partners.

Please note that the messages that Colors sends to you to confirm, fulfill or follow up on a request may incidentally include promotional material or other content from Colors or its partners. In the case of these messages, Colors is not sharing your personally identifiable information with those third parties. Colors reserves the right to share Usage Data with any third party for any reason.

As such, you may receive unsolicited phone calls and emails from third parties. Except for required information, you should not include any contact or other information in a FS Ad that you do not want other parties to see or use. If you wish to access, verify the accuracy of, or change the personally identifiable information in your Ad account, or to remove your ads, you can use the User Settings interface available to users.
