Privacy Policy
Introduction
Carico International, We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. Carico’s policy is to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website or while you are using any of our apps. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and store Google User Data when you use our application.
Information We Collect
When you sign in with Google or use our services, we may collect and process the following Google User Data:
Your name and email address (for authentication and communication)
Profile picture (for personalization)
Like most website operators, Carico collects non-identifying information of the sort that apps, web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request.
Carico’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Carico visitors use our website and/or apps. From time to time, Carico may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website or apps.
Carico also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users completing our on-line forms.
Carico only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that any commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of Carico who handles the user’s request.
Gathering Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Carico’s website or apps choose to interact with Carico in ways that either require Carico to gather personally-identifying information or which you volunteer to provide. The amount and type of information that Carico gathers or which you provide depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who complete a Request for Information Form to provide information such as their name, phone number and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Carico by purchasing parts on line, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including, as necessary, the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. You may choose to provide your contact list, upload a photograph or video or post comments on our apps. In each case, Carico collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Carico. Carico does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website or app-related activities. Please keep in mnd, when you share information publicly, your content may become accessible to other users.
Aggregated Statistics
Carico may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites and apps. For instance, Carico may monitor the most popular videos on the site or comments on our app. Carico may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Carico does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below or unless you voluntarily shared it in your post.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Carico discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Carico’s behalf or to provide services available at Carico’s websites and apps, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.

If you send us a request (for example via a support email, text or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Carico takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies and Beacons
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. A Web beacon is an often-transparent graphic image, usually no larger than 1 pixel x 1 pixel that is placed on a web site or in an email that is used to monitor the behavior of the user visiting the Web site or sending the email. It is often used in combination with cookies. Carico uses cookies and/or beacons to help Carico identify and track visitors, their usage of Carico website, and their website access preferences. Carico visitors who do not wish to have cookies or beacons placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Carico’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Carico’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Business Transfers
If Carico, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Carico goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Carico may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy. In such cases, Google User Data will remain protected under this policy.
Ads
Carico does not display ads on its websites or apps, and no Google User Data is shared with advertising platforms.
However, ads appearing on any of our websites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies and/or beacons. These cookies or beacons allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies or beacons by Carico and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
