3. Personally Identifiable Information We Collect From You:

We need to collect personal information (such as your name, address, email address, the last four digits of your social security number, and relationship to our sponsor if applicable) in order to verify a user s identity, to create a personal identification number (PIN) to secure Plan savings, pre-populate fields for user convenience, conduct targeted marketing campaigns, and to provide your request for a quote to a dealer. See below for more information about additional personal information that is collected by Plan type.

      FAMILY, FRIENDS & NEIGHBORS (A/Z or X-Plans) - www.myplan.ford.com
      A. Sponsor creates your profile upon PIN request: Your sponsoring Ford Motor Company employee/retiree may initially enroll you on the site and build your profile to the best extent they can, providing at a minimum your name and email address, and last four digits of your social security number in order to provide you with a PIN. When you accept the invitation and come to the site and register, the sponsoring employee/retiree will no longer have the ability to change or otherwise modify your profile, with the exception of their relationship to you (e.g. brother-in-law) and plan eligibility (A/Z or X).

      EMPLOYEES & RETIREES - www.axz.ford.com
      Initially, we retrieve personally identifiable information from employee records maintained by the Human Resources department of Ford Motor Company ("HR"). We collect personally identifiable information to identify you, confirm facts about you and to facilitate the creation and distribution of unique PIN's (Personal Identification Numbers) used to secure Plan savings on new vehicle purchases (or leases) at authorized Ford Motor Company dealerships. Without the personal data, we cannot generate the PIN's needed to identify you at the dealership as an authorized Plan purchaser or permit your participation in the Plan.

      FORD MOTOR COMPANY PARTNERS - www.fordpartner.com
      There are instances on this site where you may need to provide personally identifiable information about yourself in order to receive a product or service, such as a Plan PIN or to enroll for special offers. This information, such as name, mailing address, email address, last 4 digits of social security number, type of request, and product/service preferences, is collected and stored to fulfill your request and to improve the services we provide you.

      DEALERSHIP PERSONNEL (D-Plan) - www.dplan.dealerconnection.com
      When you log-in with your dealer assigned ID and password, your information is retrieved from records of dealership employees maintained through STARS2. Without the personal data, we cannot generate the PIN's needed to identify you at the dealership as an authorized Plan purchaser or permit your participation in the Plan.

    This site may use session "cookies" to collect personally identifiable information. An explanation for each of these items and how they work is included in Section 7 - Methods We Use to Collect Information.
4. How We Use the Personally Identifiable Information We Collect:
    Personally identifiable information collected on New Vehicle Purchase Plan sites may be used to:

    • Fulfill a site user request (lead generation, send marketing or promotional materials including e-mails or other information)
    • Fulfill and deliver an order for goods or services such as PIN creation to receive Plan savings
    • Respond to your comments or requests for information
    • Meet a request for or to develop new products or services
    • Make the user experience more customer-friendly

    • Match personal data collected here with data about you that we collect offline

    We use the last 4 positions of your social security number only to help us be sure that you and only you are using the Plan PIN that you generate on this site and to control the number of PINs we issue to you annually. In other words, it is used only to ensure that the benefit of this program is available only to you as the eligible participant. We do not provide this information directly to the Dealer. Rather, you provide your last name, PIN and last 4 positions of social security number to the Dealer, and the Dealer checks with us to confirm its match to the information you provided us when you obtained your PIN. These are our only uses of the last 4 positions of social security number.
5. Other (Non-Personally Identifiable) Information We Collect From Site Visitors:
    New Vehicle Purchase Plan sites collect other information, non-personally identifiable information from site visitors. This means that we do not track these items on an individual basis that identifies the site visitor, but rather gather and collect this information on an aggregate [or anonymous] basis that includes all site visitors. Non-personal information includes tracking the site pages that are visited or the amount of time spent on our site.

    Our primary goal in collecting aggregate information from you is to be able to perform site metrics that allow us to improve the functionality of the website. We need to collect aggregate information in order to track page visits, peak usage times, daily usage patterns, duration of visits, browser versions, platform versions, network classification, referring websites, and site click through analysis.

    We may use session "cookies," session logs, spot light ads/web beacons/GIF/pixel tags/banner ads or links, and third-party click tracking analytics tools, such as Omniture tags, to collect aggregate or other non-personally identifiable information about site visitors. An explanation for each of these items and how they work is included in Section 7 Methods We Use to Collect Information.

7. Methods We Use to Collect Information
    A "cookie" is a small text file that helps us in many ways to make your visit to our website more enjoyable and meaningful to you. For example, cookies avoid you having to log in every time you come back to one of our websites. They also allow us to tailor a website 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, 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 functions or features.

    This site may use a third-party click tracking analytics tool, such as Omniture tags, to capture click through statistics.

    New Vehicle Purchase Plan sites may use spot light ads, web beacons, and GIF or pixel tags which are site instrumentation tools that help us to determine, for instance, whether a page has been viewed or not and, if so, how many times.

    When you visit our website the server housing the pages automatically generates a "session log." We use session logs to help us determine how people travel through our site. In this way, we can structure our pages so that the information most frequently visited is easier to find. By tracking page visits, we can also determine if the information we're providing is being used. The only data gathered is the Internet Protocol (IP) address from which you came (which contains no personal information), the web site that referred you, the pages you visited and the date and time of those visits.
8. Sharing Your Information
    New Vehicle Purchase Plan sites do not share, sell, or rent personally identifiable information with independent companies for their own use without providing you a choice.

    Personal information that is provided to us in the course of registering for this site or generating a Plan PIN or requesting a product or service through this website may be gathered and stored in one or more of our corporate databases and be used for purposes of contacting you for things like promotional offers, marketing programs, or other communications from this website or other Ford Motor Company websites.

    We may share personal information that we collect about you with other companies within the Ford Motor Company family of companies or subsidiaries.

    Personal information that you provide to New Vehicle Purchase Plan sites may be shared with our authorized dealers. This is necessary in order to honor your request for a price quote on a vehicle or in order to provide a dealer with information for purposes of contacting you in their regular course of business. The dealer is not restricted by New Vehicle Purchase Plan in their use of your data.

    If you purchase a vehicle under the Ford Partner Recognition X-Plan Program, we may forward your name and vehicle purchase date to your employer of record. Your employer may use this information to solicit feedback from you on your purchase experience with the goal of optimizing program value and customer satisfaction for your fellow employees.

    If you purchase a vehicle under DPLAN, we will forward your name, PIN, and vehicle purchase date to the dealership's DPLAN Coordinator. This is done for audit purposes.

    Vendors, contractors or partners of New Vehicle Purchase Plan who have access to your personal information in connection with providing services for New Vehicle Purchase Plan are required to keep the information confidential and are not permitted to use this information for any other purpose than to carry out the services they are performing for New Vehicle Purchase Plan.
