Personal information that you provide to those sites or mobile applications may be sent to ACC in order to deliver the service. We process such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Any affiliated sites may have different privacy practices, so we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
  6. Links– ACC may present links in a format that enables us to keep track of whether these links have been followed. We use this information to improve the quality of our services.

These other sites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information from you, and ACC has no control over such activity.

ACC only processes personal information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. In addition to the above, such purposes may include:

  1. Providing and marketing our services and approved third-party services;
  2. Auditing, research and analysis in order to maintain, protect and improve our services;

Choices for personal information

When you sign up for a particular service that requires registration, we may ask you to provide personal information. If we use this information in a manner different than the purpose for which it was collected, then we will ask for your consent prior to such use.

If we propose to use personal information for any purposes other than those described in this Privacy Policy, we will offer you an effective way to opt out of the use of personal information for those other purposes. We will not collect or use sensitive information for purposes other than those described in this Privacy Policy, unless we have obtained your prior consent.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some ACC features and services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.

You can decline to submit personal information regarding some of our services, in which case ACC may not be able to provide those services to you.

Information sharing

Your personally identifiable information will not be rented, sold or shared with any third-party, except as described in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise agreed to by you.

ACC only shares personal information with other companies or individuals outside of ACC in the following limited circumstances:

  1. When we have your consent. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.
  2. When we provide such information to our subsidiaries, affiliated companies or other trusted businesses or persons for the purpose of processing personal information on our behalf. We require that these parties agree to process such information based on our instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
  3. When we have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to: (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request; (b) enforce applicable Terms of Use, including investigation of potential violations thereof; (c) detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; or (d) protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of ACC, its users or the public as required or permitted by law.

ACC may disclose information it has collected from any user of ACC services and/or content that any user has made available to ACC when it believes in good faith that the law or legal process requires it, or when it is necessary to do so to protect the rights or property of ACC or others.

If ACC becomes involved in a merger, acquisition or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

We may share with third-parties’ certain pieces of aggregated, de-identified, non-personal information, such as the number of users who searched for a particular term, for example, or how many users clicked on a particular function of the Site. Such information does not identify you individually. Sharing of such aggregated, de-identified, non-personal information may be for commercial purposes.

Please contact us at the address below for any additional questions about the management or use of personal data.

Information security

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data.

We restrict access to personal information to ACC employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.

Data integrity

ACC processes personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We review our data collection, storage and processing practices to ensure that we only collect, store and process the personal information needed to provide or improve our services. We depend on our users to update or correct their personal information whenever necessary.

Accessing and updating personal information

When you use ACC services, we make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personal information on record with us and to enable you to seek corrections to such information to the extent inaccurate, or to delete such data at your request if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes.
