We may use service providers to provide site metrics and other analytics services.

This information may be used by Auto-Owners and its service providers on behalf of Auto-Owners to analyze and track usage of our sites and Services to determine the popularity of certain content and to better understand how you use our sites and Services.
To provide visitors with better service, each sites may use analytics software to track usage activity of that site.

If, at any time, you choose not to participate in the use of analytics software, please use your search engine’s (i.e. Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.) available opt-outs for the web. In addition to basic analytics software, the sites may also use remarketing technologies, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, or Google Demographics and Interest Reporting from the data obtained through analytics software.
We use remarketing with our service providers to advertise online. Their services may come from sites such as Google, Bing, Yahoo, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Adroll, and any other display advertising partner (collectively the “Platform Advertisers”) to advertise on third-party websites to previous visitors to our site. These vendors may show our ads on websites across the internet.
We may use Facebook Custom Audiences and Pixels to deliver advertisements to Website Visitors. No personal information is contained if collected as the result of using these pixels.

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is an optional browser setting that allows you to express your preferences regarding tracking across websites. Most modern web browsers give you the option to send a Do Not Track signal to the websites you visit, indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. However, there is no accepted standard for how a website should respond to this signal, so we do not take any action in response to this signal. Auto-Owners does not have a mechanism in place to respond to DNT signals. Instead, in addition to publicly available third-party tools, we offer you the choices described in this Privacy Policy to manage the collection and use of information about you.
Auto-Owners does track some activity across websites (including your search terms, the website you visited before you visited or used the Services and other clickstream data) and we may continue to collect information in the manner described in this Privacy Policy from web browsers that have enabled DNT signals or similar mechanisms.

We do not share information we gather with other websites or any other entities or individuals unless such sharing is disclosed to you in advance through this Privacy Policy. Other linked websites, however, may collect personal information from you that is not subject to our control. To ensure protection of your privacy, always review the privacy policy of the websites you may visit by linking from the sites. Please note that this Privacy Policy applies only to our sites, and not to other companies’ or organizations’ websites to which we link.

We may retain copies of information about you and any transactions or Services you have used for a period of time that is consistent with applicable law, statute of limitations, or as we believe is reasonably necessary to comply with legal requirements and regulation, legal process or governmental request, detect or prevent fraud, collect fees owed, resolve disputes, address problems with our Services, assist with investigations, enforce other applicable agreements or policies, or to take any other actions consistent with applicable law.
In some circumstances we may anonymize (make anonymous) your personal information for research or statistical purposes, in which case, we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
