Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. ("CVG" or "we" or "us" or "our") owns, controls and maintains this website and all information and content on this website as a service for its employees, customers and shareholders.
CVG has established this Privacy Policy to describe our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information that you may provide through this website. By using this website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. Whenever you submit information through this website, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Information Collection and Use
CVG does not collect personal information about you, such as your name, address, telephone number or email address, unless you voluntarily submit that personal information to us through this website, by email or by other means. However, when you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain non-personal information about you, such as the domain name that referred you to our website, the type of browser or computer operating system you use, and navigational information. This non-personal information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet tags or web beacons and navigational data collection. We collect this non-personal information internally to help us analyze the effectiveness of and enhance usefulness of our marketing efforts, as well as to provide better service to website visitors, customize this website based on user preferences, compile and analyze statistics and trends and otherwise administer and improve this website for your use. Such information is not combined with personally identifiable information collected elsewhere on this website unless you have consented.
Our website uses Internet Protocol Addresses (“IP Address”). An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet. Generally, an IP Address changes each time you connect to the Internet (it is a "dynamic" address). Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection, depending on your individual circumstance, it is possible that your IP Address that we collect, or even perhaps a cookie we use, may contain information that could be deemed personally identifiable. This is because with some broadband connections your IP Address doesn't change (it is "static") and could be associated with your personal computer. We may use your IP Address to report aggregate information on use and to help improve our website.
What are cookies?
A "cookie" is a small data file created and stored on your computer by a Web server, which can be referenced when that website is visited to help the website remember information about you and your preferences. A cookie can be used to store the information you submitted earlier in forms on CVG's website. The data in the cookie is only available to CVG's website. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the website uses to track the pages you have visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie cannot read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites.
There are two types of cookies: "session" cookies and "persistent" cookies. Session cookies are temporary bits of information used during a single website visit and are automatically deleted from your computer when you close your browser. Persistent cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and used to track website activity over a longer period, and they remain on your computer until either you choose to delete them or they expire.
How does CVG use cookies?
Like many websites, CVG uses automatic data collection tools, such as cookies, to collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website, such as your browser type and the address of the website from which you arrived at our website. They may also collect information about your IP Address and navigation behavior (for example, the pages you view and the links you click). These tools help make your visit to our website easier, more efficient and more valuable by providing you with a customized experience and recognizing you when you return.
CVG uses session cookies to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information where inappropriate (the website "remembers" previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes) and collect aggregate statistical information on the website.
CVG uses persistent cookies in several places on our website so we can pre-populate forms to improve your ease of use. [For example, the information provided during a document download is captured so that you do not need to enter it again when requesting additional documents.] CVG may also use persistent cookies to collect analytical information about how visitors use our website. For example, CVG may measure website usage, access to online services and the level of interest in particular products. CVG uses this information to improve our service and provide a better experience for visitors to this website. Persistent cookies placed by this website on your computer may hold personally identifiable information, but only if you have registered or have otherwise consented to the retention of personally identifiable information you have provided at the website. Otherwise, this website's server only knows that an unidentified visitor with your cookie has returned to the website.
CVG never uses cookies to track your Internet use after you leave the CVG website.
Do I have to accept cookies?
Depending on the Web browser you use, you may be able to configure it to block or disable cookies, or to receive a warning before a cookie is restored, or to erase cookies from your computer, by following the instructions in the toolbar on your Web browser. If you do this, you will be able to use the CVG website, but your browser will not remember your personal preferences when you return to this website and some features of this website may not be available.
Disclosure to Service Providers
We do not sell or transfer personal information to third parties except to our agents, contractors or other service providers for business-related purposes in connection with the services of this website or of CVG. These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services. We may disclose aggregate statistics using information collected on our website, but such statistics will include no personally identifiable information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may release information when we believe that such release is necessary to (1) comply with applicable law or governmental or regulatory bodies or authorities, (2) enforce or apply the terms of any of our agreements or (3) protect the security or integrity of this website or the rights, property or safety of CVG or others. By providing any personal information to us, you fully understand and consent to the transfer, processing and storage of such information.
Business Transfers
We reserve the right to transfer your personal information to a third party in the event of a sale, merger, liquidation, acquisition or similar event of all or substantially all of the assets of our company provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy. You will be notified in the event of any such transfer and you will be afforded an opportunity to opt-out.
Governmental and Regulatory Inquiries
We reserve the right to share your personal information to respond to duly authorized information requests of governmental or regulatory bodies and authorities or where required by law.
Use by Minors
This website is not intended for use by, or designed to attract, individuals under the age of 13. We have no intention of collecting, and do not knowingly collect, personally identifiable information from any person under the age of 13. We encourage all parents to instruct their children in the safe and responsible use of their personal data while using the Internet.
Links to Other Websites
This website may contain links or references to other websites as a convenience to visitors to this website. This Privacy Policy will not apply to those other websites, but rather their privacy policies (if any) will apply. You should read the privacy policy of every website you visit. CVG is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of any such other websites.
Security of Information
CVG takes commercially reasonable steps to store and maintain personally identifiable information that you transmit through our website and to protect such information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is ever completely secure or error-free. Therefore, while CVG strives to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, CVG cannot guarantee its security, so you transmit any personal information through this website at your own risk.
Changes to Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy is effective as of May 26, 2010. We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy from time to time. If we change our Privacy Policy, then we will post our revised privacy policy on this website. Please check back periodically and especially before you provide any personally identifiable information. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that we have about you.
