CDK Global Privacy Statement

This website (this "Site") owned and operated by CDK Global, Inc. (together with its affiliates, individually or collectively, "CDK"). Your privacy is important to CDK. We want you to understand how we collect, use, share and store your information when you use this Site. By using this Site, you accept and agree to the practices this Privacy Statement describes. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS SITE.

Information We Collect

When you use this Site, we may collect and use personally identifiable information and other information about you. "Personally identifiable information" includes your name, address, email address, telephone number and other similar information that can be used to individually identify you, directly or indirectly, and that is not otherwise publicly available. For example, we may collect the following information:

  • Information that you provide on this Site or Linked Sites by filling in forms, opening an account or purchasing any product or service on or through this Site, including your name, address, email address, telephone number or other information;
  • Information that you provide when you communicate with us or other parties who provide products or services on or through this Site, or other users of this Site through this Site for any reason, including information in emails you send us, or submissions you may make on our Site; and
  • Details of your visits to this Site or Linked Sites and the resources that you access, including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data, including your IP address, browser type, device identification data, the date and time you accessed or left the Site, and the pages you viewed.

In addition, we may combine information about your visits to this Site and/or any Linked Site with personally identifiable information about you (this combination is sometimes called "PII Merger") so that we can better understand your interests and serve you better, such as by tailoring your experience within this Site or a Linked Site or delivering relevant advertisements to you as described in "Use of Tracking Technologies" below. You can opt out of having this occur by opting out of interest-based advertising as described in "Your Privacy Options" below. We do not retrieve personally identifiable information from the computer or other device that you use to visit this Site or any Linked Site.

Use of Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, pixel tags, server logs and other Internet technologies to collect information about you and your use of this Site, and we may additionally collect data about your visits to other websites. These technologies do not provide us with your personal information, but they do allow us to track and record your activities on this Site and other websites. In addition to information collected by us, we may allow our related companies or other third parties to use cookies and web beacons to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to this Site.

A "cookie" is a small computer file that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. When you visit this Site again (or certain other cooperating websites), the cookie allows us to recognize your browser. Cookies may store user preferences and other information. A pixel tag (also known as a "web beacon") is a type of technology placed on a website or within the body of an email for the purpose of tracking a user's activity on websites, or when emails are opened or accessed, and is often used in combination with cookies. To learn more about the details, you may visit www.allaboutcookies.org and/or other resources.

Your Privacy Options

  • Decline or Block Cookies and Pixel Tags. You can modify the security settings on your computer, tablet or mobile device and reset your browser to approve or reject cookies on a case-by-case basis, block cookies from certain sites, or even refuse all cookies. Similarly, you can disable pixel tags by changing your browser settings to omit images and disable Javascript, or use commercial software packages that can omit pixel tags and most advertisements. Please be aware, however, if you "turn off," purge or disable cookies or pixel tags, you may not be able to use all of the features, functions or services available on this Site.
  • Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising and PII Merger. CDK is a participant in the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") and supports DAA's Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising, which means that you have options and choices about our collection and use of your data for online interest-based advertising. CDK is also a member of the Interactive Advertising Bureau ("IAB") and adheres to the IAB Code of Conduct. For more information about interest-based information tracking and to opt out of interest-based advertising categories by CDK, you may click on the DAA's AdChoices icon located at the bottom of this page or visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/. Please note that if you choose to opt out of having your information used to deliver advertisements tailored to your interests, you will continue to see advertisements delivered by CDK, but these advertisements may not be as relevant to you.
  • Do-Not-Track Request. This Site currently does not respond to "do not track" or similar signals.

Security

We use commercially reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect on this Site. These procedures may include, but are not limited to, facility access control, firewalls, encryption, intrusion detection, and Site monitoring.
