AUTOWEEK.COM PRIVACY POLICY AND TERMS OF USE

Crain has developed this Privacy Policy to advise site users of our possible uses of information collected during an autoweek.com visit.

For each visitor to autoweek.com, our web server may automatically attempt to identify the user's domain name, but not the e-mail address. We collect and store the domain name of autoweek.com users in our log files. We also track information, in aggregate, on pages and features that users access or view. When you register, make purchases or at other times, we collect personally identifiable information from you that may include your name, e-mail address, credit card information and facts about your profession. We may conduct online surveys and contests. These surveys are entirely voluntary and you may decline to participate.

Information collected about users may be used by Crain (and our affiliates and partnering third-party companies) to provide users with the features of the site, to enable us to provide the products you requested, to send you e-mail notifications about our services and products, for audits, to perform statistical analysis of user behavior in order to measure interest in the various areas of our site (for product development purposes) and to inform advertisers as to how many users have seen or "clicked" their advertising banners. We will disclose site usage information to third parties only in aggregate.

From time to time, we may make individual user information available to carefully selected third parties to send you information through e-mail or postal mail about their products or services. During the registration process, a user can indicate on the registration form that he or she does not wish to receive such marketing materials via e-mail or postal mail. Additionally, a user can indicate that he or she does not want to receive news about new site features or marketing materials from Crain via e-mail. Crain retains the right to contact a registered user regarding account status or changes to the registration agreement.

Crain will remove any registrant (and their personal information) from our database pursuant to a request from the registrant, including full name and e-mail address, toawwebmaster@crain.com, or allow any registrant to "opt out" of further contact or change/correct personal information online.

If you provided your postal mail address during registration and do not wish to receive marketing mailings from Crain and affiliates, you may remove your name by sending an e-mail awwebmaster@crain.com with "Do Not Mail" in the subject line along with your full name or by calling us at 313-259-8542.
