I. Types of Information we collect and how we collect it.
In discussing the types of information we collect from customers and visitors to our Web sites,
it is important to distinguish between two categories of information. We use "Customer
Information" as a broad, general term that refers to any information relating to you or your
FALLBROOK products or services, including Commerce Information and Web Site Information. These
terms are defined in more detail below:
"Commerce Information" means Personally Identifiable Information that enables
a commerce partner to fulfill your request to participate in a promotion or transaction. From
time to time, we may present email offers or enable you to buy goods and services from us or
third parties. Only if you take advantage of such an offer or engage in a transaction, will we
collect and send information such as your name and address and your interest in a specific offer
or transaction to the sponsor of the promotion or transaction. In addition to fulfilling
your request, that commerce partner may also use your Commerce Information to send you other
information in which you might be interested consistent with its own privacy policies.
"Web Site Information" means information collected and stored on our web
servers when you become a registered user of, or visit, our Web sites. If you are a customer
or register on our Web sites, we may collect information that you provide us (including your name,
e-mail address, mailing address, telephone number and any other information you provide) and use
it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Whether or not you are a FALLBROOK customer, we may
collect information about visitors to our Web sites as follows:
Cookies: We use cookies to our Web sites as part of our Web site usage tracking and/or
to improve your browsing experience. These cookies remain on your computer and are automatically retrieved
when you visit our Web sites at a later time. These cookies contain only information to identify returning
visitors and frequently visited pages. No other Customer Information is stored on cookies.
If you are uncomfortable with cookies, you may disable them on your computer. Disabling cookies may
affect user functionality but the design of FALLBROOK Web sites allows access to most offerings
with cookies disabled.
Electronic newsletters: If you subscribe to electronic newsletters from
FALLBROOK, we keep your e-mail address on file.
Aggregate information about Web site visitors: We create aggregate reports
of visitors to our Web sites to measure the performance of our sites. These reports do not contain
Customer Information.
Links to other Web sites: When you visit our Web sites, you will find many
opportunities to link to Web sites of third parties. When you click through to these sites, FALLBROOK's
Privacy Policy no longer applies. We recommend that you read the privacy policy for any third
party Web sites.
II. Use of Customer Information
We use Customer Information supplied to us to help understand what our customers want. We use Customer
Information only in the aggregate, and not in a manner specifically relating to any piece of
data’s respective source, for, at our sole discretion, any one or combination of the
following purposes: editorializing, providing feedback, affecting legislative or regulatory
policy, marketing and promotion, statistical analysis, product development and other business
related purposes.
III. When we share Customer Information with third parties
We share Customer Information with third parties where it is necessary to conduct a legitimate business
activity related to serving our or our partners’ customers.
Affiliated companies: We may share Customer Information with affiliated companies of FALLBROOK. If we choose to share data in this fashion, we will require our affiliates to honor this Privacy Policy.
Marketing: We may share Customer Information, including product interests or purchases, with our business partners who may use this Customer Information to market products or services to you or in which you have expressed interest.
When you elect to participate in a special offer or engage in a transaction with FALLBROOK or a third party
advertiser or promoter through the FALLBROOK Web sites, we will collect and disclose your Commerce
Information to the party sponsoring or fulfilling the promotion. This information is disclosed only
upon your affirmative response to an offer. In addition to fulfilling your request, that party
may also use your Commerce Information to send you other information in which you might be
interested consistent with its own privacy policies.
.
Legal requirements: We may share Customer Information with third parties to meet
legal requirements or where permitted by law to protect our rights and property. For example, we may
be asked to disclose certain Customer Information in response to a subpoena or court order. In most
cases where disclosure is being made pursuant to legal process, we will provide you with prior
notice of such subpoena or court order so that you have the opportunity to contest in a court
proceeding the subpoena or court order.
Sale or transfer of the business: We may share Customer Information with
third parties in connection with the sale, transfer, or other assignment of our business. If
we are acquired by another company, that company will possess the Customer Information collected
by us and will assume the rights and obligations regarding your Customer Information as
described in this Privacy Policy.
IV. Your choices regarding our collection and use of Customer Information
The default privacy preferences, to which you hereby consent if you do not request a change to
your settings, allow us to collect, use, and disclose all Customer Information in manners consistent
with this Privacy Policy.
You may further opt not to receive communications that we send to you based on your Commerce Information
or Web site Information. If you make this choice, you understand that we will not be able to inform you
about any upcoming features, improvements, or promotions regarding FALLBROOK, its products and partners.
In all cases, however, we will collect and use your information for legitimate business purposes.
If you prefer that we not share your Customer Information with affiliated companies or third parties,
please call by phone at 1-888-688-4624 (1-888-NUVINCI), e-mail (info@fallbrooktech.com)
or mail (FALLBROOK Technologies Inc. Privacy Policy, 9444 Waples Street, Suite 410, San Diego, CA 92101).
V. How long we keep Customer Information
We maintain information about you for as long as we or our partners provide service to you, and
longer for related business activities. After information is no longer necessary for our business
purposes, we destroy the information unless there is an outstanding request or order to preserve
the information.
VI. Our do not contact policy
We may, from time to time, contact you by mail, e-mail or telephone to tell you about additional products
or services that we or third parties may offer. If you do not wish to receive such calls or promotional
materials, call 1-888-688-4624 (1-888-NUVINCI) or mail (FALLBROOK Technologies Inc. Privacy Policy,
9444 Waples Street, Suite 410, San Diego, CA 92101). If you do not wish to receive e-mail, please contact
us via e-mail at remove@fallbrooktech.com
VII. How we protect the security of Customer Information
We take reasonable steps to protect Customer Information by using security technologies and procedures
that limit access to our databases. However, no system is completely secure or error-free. We do not, and
cannot, guarantee the complete security of Customer Information.
VIII. Your access to information and rights under the Communications Act
You may obtain access to information we collect about you and correct any errors in such information by
contacting us anytime by phone 1-888-688-4624 (1-888-NUVINCI), e-mail (info@fallbrooktech.com)
or mail (FALLBROOK Technologies Inc. Privacy Policy, 9444 Waples Street, Suite 410, San Diego, CA 92101).
The Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. § 338(i), governs our practices concerning the collection and
disclosure of personally identifiable information about you. If you believe we have violated the
provisions of the Communications Act, you may bring an action for damages, reasonable attorneys’
fees, and costs. By using these Web sites you agree that claims such as these will be resolved by binding
arbitration.
X. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make a significant change
with regard to our collection or use of information about our customers, we will note on the main
page of our Web sites that this Policy has been updated and may take additional reasonable steps to
notify you about the new or revised Policy. We will make a reasonable attempt to notify you in some
form 30 days before the effective date of the change.
To comment on or ask about this Policy, call 1-888-688-4624 (1-888-NUVINCI), e-mail
(info@fallbrooktech.com) or mail (FALLBROOK Technologies Inc. Privacy Policy, 9444 Waples Street,
