We will only share this information with our affiliates and marketing partners contracted to do business on our behalf.

Golden Isles Nissan uses two types of user information: anonymous information gathered from cookies and log files, and personal information you provide us for certain services. See below for definitions of each of these methods.

Anonymous Information - Cookies and Log Files

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to personal information, until a user provides that information (see below). If a user rejects or deletes the cookie, he/she may still use our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be limited in some areas of our site. For example, the user will not be able to receive notification of special offers. Cookies also enable us to track and aggregate click stream behavior data. By doing this we can better target the interests of our users and enhance their experience on our site.

Golden Isles Nissan also maintains standard web logs that record data about all visitors to this website. These logs may contain:

• The internet domain from which you access this site.

• Your IP address (Your computer is automatically assigned an IP address when you surf the internet. Your IP address is either static or dynamic. A static IP address may be identifiable to you; a dynamic address is usually not identifiable to you).

• The type of browser and operating system you use.

Golden Isles Nissan uses web log and click stream information to help us design our site, to identify popular site features and to make the site more useful for visitors. Web logs are recorded in sequential files, and we normally do not attempt to identify individuals from these logs. However, we may use web logs to identify persons attempting to break into, disrupt, or damage our site. We may share web log information with law enforcement personnel if we believe evidence exists, or is likely to occur, of a violation of federal, state or local laws or regulations.

Volunteering Personal Information

Users may choose to volunteer personal information (name, e-mail address, phone number, etc.) in order for us to provide them with services such as price quotes, credit application and other information requests. If you previously gave us your e-mail address and no longer wish to receive e-mail announcements, you can have your name removed from our e-mail list by sending an e-mail to tfb@goldenislesnissan.com, calling, or by sending regular mail (see contact information below).

Golden Isles Nissan does not sell or rent user information to any third parties. We share user information with our affiliates and financing institutions, and marketing partners contracted to do business on our behalf. When the user signs up for certain services and offers on our site, we will share names, or other contact information necessary for any associate third party to provide these services. Golden Isles Nissan will share user information in accordance with the privacy policy in effect at the time the information is collected.

Golden Isles Nissan takes all reasonable precautions to protect our users' information, both while the information is being transmitted and after it is received by us.

When our credit form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as social security number or credit card number), that information is encrypted using 128 bit encryption and Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol beyond being protected using an industry standard for reputable organizations. Furthermore, once the information has been received by us we use security procedures and policies commensurate with industry standards to safeguard against loss, theft, unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification and disclosure.
