I. WHAT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION OF YOURS IS COLLECTED AND HOW THE INFORMATION IS USED.

a. Information Collection and Use

ARI is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. ARI will not sell, share, transfer or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this Privacy Policy. ARI collects information from You at the "Car Shopping", "Contact", "Email Alerts" and "Investor Relations" pages on this Site.

b. Registration

During the collection of information at the "Car Shopping", "Contact", "Email Alerts" and "Investor Relations" pages on the Site, You are required to give Your contact information (such as name, e-mail address and/or present location). Such information allows ARI to process and fulfill Your request. Your contact information is also used to confirm Your identity and to contact You about the services on the Site for which You may have expressed interest.
When the Site requests Your identity, the Site will clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested.

c. IP Addresses

Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and a set of numbers that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" or IP address. When You request a page from any page within the Site, our Web servers automatically recognize Your domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about You other than the IP address from which You have accessed the Site.
ARI may use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the Site, track Your movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.

d. Children's and Minor's Privacy

Protecting the privacy of the very young is uniquely important, particularly on the Internet. The Site is designed to provide commercial business information and services for adults. This Site is not designed to attract minors, in particular children under the age of 13. ARI does not market to or knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 13. Children should always get permission from their parents before sending any information about themselves (such as their names, email addresses, and phone numbers) to anyone over the Internet.

e. Opt Out Procedures

You may opt-out of receiving communications from ARI at the point where the Site requests personally identifiable information about You.
Contact mobertop@americanrailcar.com to be removed from an e-mail list. If You are using an e-mail forwarding service or other similar service please make sure to include the correct e-mail address or addresses.

A cookie cannot read data off Your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Use of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on the Site. Once You close Your browser, the cookie simply terminates.

ARI and its business partners may use cookies to better personalize the content, banners, and/or promotions that You see on the Site.
