Servco’s name and reputation were built on a foundation of trust and customer service. Servco and its subsidiaries and affiliated companies, (collectively, “the Company,” “Servco” or “we”, “us”, “our”) respect your concerns about privacy and value our relationship with you. This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) explains how we collect, share and use your information when you access or use any part of any website, mobile application, social media account or online service and their features and their respective contents (collectively, the “Services”) of the Company.
By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in our Terms of Use.
If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please stop using the Services immediately.
This Policy describes the types of information we collect through the Services, how that information may be used and/or with whom it may be shared; and how you can reach us to get answers to questions you may have about our privacy practices on these Services. Please read this Policy carefully, because by using the Services you are acknowledging that you understand and agree to the terms of this Policy. In addition, please review our Terms of Use, which governs your use of the Services and any content you submit to the Services.
1. What is Personal Information?
As used herein, the term “Personal Information” means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as a name, address, telephone number, mobile number, e-mail address, or credit card number), or information about that individual that is directly linked to personally identifiable information. Personal Information does not include “aggregate information”, which is data we collect about the use of the Services or about a group or category of services or users from which individual identities or other personal information has been removed. Personal Information also does not include Usage Information (as defined below) or Device Identifier (as defined below) that is not connected to Personal Information. This Policy in no way restricts or limits our collection and use of aggregate or Usage Information that is not connected to Personal Information.
2. Information Collected on Our Services
INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO US
You may choose to provide Personal Information through the Services. For example, the Company may collect Personal Information when you register or create an account, schedule a service appointment, register for a promotional event, submit a finance application, use our digital retailing services, submit information or content (“User Content”) or apply for a job. If you do not want your Personal Information collected, please do not submit it or use these features.
INFORMATION COLLECTED BY AUTOMATED MEANS
Whenever you visit or interact with the Services, the Company, as well as any third-party advertisers and/or service providers, may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect information about how the Services are accessed and used (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include, in part, browser type, operating system, the page served, the time, how many users visited the Services, and the preceding page views. This statistical data provides us with information about the use of the Services, such as how many visitors visit a specific page on the Services, how long they stay on that page, and which hyperlinks, if any, they “click” on. This information helps us to keep the Services fresh and interesting to our visitors and to tailor content to a visitor’s interests. Usage Information is generally non-identifying, but if the Company associates it with you as a specific and identifiable person, the Company treats it as Personal Information. In the course of collecting Usage Information, the Company also may automatically collect your IP address or other unique identifier (“Device Identifier”) for the computer, mobile device, technology or other device (collectively, “Device”) you use to access the Services. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a website or its servers, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. When you visit the Services, we may view your Device Identifier. We may use this information to determine the general physical location of your Device and understand from what regions of the world the visitors to the Services come. We also may use this information to enhance the Services. The technologies used on the Services to collect Usage Information, including Device Identifiers, may include, without limitation:

The Company licenses technology to serve advertisements on its own Services and within its content as that content is served across the Internet. In addition, we may use third party network advertisers to serve advertisements and third-party analytics vendors to evaluate and provide us with information about the use of the Services and viewing of our content.

The NAI Opt-Out Page provides a tool that identifies its member companies that have cookies on your browser and provides links to those companies.

These other websites may send their own cookies to your Device, they may independently collect data or solicit Personal Information and may or may not have their own privacy notices or policies.
