Non-personally identifiable information includes tracking the App pages that are visited or the amount of time spent on the App.

This App may collect additional non-personally identifiable information which may include the type/model of the mobile device viewing the App and the mobile device’s service provider and operating system.

If your mobile device has the capability and the GPS feature on the mobile device is turned on, you can utilize certain locator functionalities on the App which may utilize GPS data to determine your location in order to fulfill your request.

The primary goal in collecting non-personally identifiable information from you is to be able to perform App metrics that allow Ford to improve the functionality of the App.

7. Methods to Collect Information:

A “cookie” is a small text file that helps us in many ways to make your visit to a website or use of an App more enjoyable and meaningful to you. For example, cookies avoid you having to log in every time you come back to a website or App. They also allow Ford to tailor a website or App or advertisement to better match your interests and preferences. There are a couple different types of cookies.

A “session” cookie is stored only in your computer’s working memory (RAM) and only lasts for your browsing session. When you close all your browser’s windows, or when you shut down your computer, the session cookie disappears forever.

A “persistent” cookie is stored on your computer’s hard drive until a specified date, which could be tomorrow, next week, or 10 years from now. Persistent cookies stay on your computer until either a) they expire, b) they are overwritten with newer cookies, or c) you manually remove them. Most browsers can be configured not to accept cookies, however, this may prevent you from having access to some site or App functions or features.

This App may use third-party click tracking analytics tools (such as Omniture tags) to capture clickthrough statistics. These parties may collect information about your use of the App and across different Apps and sites over time.

Ford Owner App may use spotlight ads/web beacons/GIF/pixel tags which are App instrumentation tools that help us to determine, for instance, whether a page has been viewed or not and, if so, how many times. Emails or electronic newsletters we send may use tools (e.g., pixel tags or web beacons) to gather email metrics and information to improve the reader’s experience such as how many of the emails are opened, if they were printed or forwarded, the type of device (e.g., mobile or PC) from which they were opened, and the city, state, and county associated with the applicable IP address. In general, any electronic image viewed as part of a webpage, including an ad banner, can act as a web beacon.

This App may generate a “session log” when you utilize the app. Session logs are used to help us determine how people travel through sites or Apps. In this way, pages can be structured so that the information most frequently visited is easier to find. By tracking page visits, it can also be determined if the information provided is being used.

This App may utilize app embedded tools that help us in many ways to make your visit to this App more enjoyable and meaningful to you. For example, device identifiers that allow Ford to tailor the App to better match your preferences and avoid repeated activities.

Ford Owner App does not share, sell, or rent personally identifiable information with independent companies for their own use without providing you a choice.
