If you reside outside of the United States, in order to provide and operate the Site and Services, we may send and store your Personal Data outside of the country where you reside or are located, to the United States. Therefore, our collection and use of your Personal is subject to the United States’ laws related to privacy and use of personal data and information. These laws, including what is determined to be “personal data and/or information,” are different and may be less protective than those applicable to you in your country of residence.

EU-US Privacy Shield
AnyRoad’s commitment to comply with the Privacy Shield Principles
AnyRoad is a participant in the Privacy Shield and has self-certified to the Privacy Shield framework. AnyRoad confirms its commitment to comply with the EU-US Privacy Shield, the UK-US Privacy Shield, and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information from European Union member countries, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland to the United States, respectively. AnyRoad has certified that it adheres to each of the Privacy Shield Principles: Notice, Choice, Accountability for Onward Transfer, Security, Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation, Access, and Recourse, Enforcement and Liability.

Accountability for onward transfers
AnyRoad’s accountability for personal data that it receives under the Privacy Shield and subsequently transfers to a third party is described in the Privacy Shield Principles. In particular, AnyRoad remains responsible and liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if third-party agents that it engages to process the personal data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles unless AnyRoad proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
Right of access

This data and research may be compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis (“Aggregated Personal Data”), and AnyRoad may share this Aggregated Personal Data with its affiliates, agents, and business partners. This Aggregated Personal Data does not identify you personally. AnyRoad may also disclose Aggregated Personal Data in order to describe our services to current and prospective business partners, and to other third parties for other lawful purposes.
3. Automatically Collected Information
When you interact with AnyRoad through the Services and/or the Site, the various technologies used in connection with the Services and/or the Site collect and store certain information.

AnyRoad may store automatically-collected information itself or such information may be included in databases owned and maintained by AnyRoad affiliates, agents, or service providers. The Services may use automatically-collected information and pool it with other information.
In operating the Services, we may use a technology called “cookies.” A cookie is a piece of information that the computer that hosts our Services gives to your browser when you access the Services. Our cookies are persistent cookies and help provide additional functionality to the Services and help us analyze Services usage more accurately. For instance, our Site may set a cookie on your browser that allows you to access the Services without needing to remember and then enter a password more than once during a visit to the Site. On most web browsers, you will find a “help” section on the toolbar. Please refer to this section for information on how to receive notifications when you are receiving a new cookie and how to turn cookies off. We recommend that you leave cookies turned on because they allow you to take advantage of some of the Service features. Further, our Service may use web beacons on our Site and in our communications to provide additional functionality to the Services and help us analyze usage of the Services more accurately. These web beacons may also track your IP address.
4. Location Information
Our Service may collect and use your location information (for example, by using the GPS on your mobile device) to provide certain functionality of our Service (“Location Data”). If you choose to enable our location features, your Location Data may be publicly displayed within the Service. Please keep in mind that other users can see this information about you, and they may use it or disclose it to other individuals or entities outside of our control and without your knowledge. Your Location Data may be subject to abuse, misuse, and monitoring by others, so please be careful if you choose to enable location functionality. We may also use your Location Data in an aggregate way, as described above in the “Aggregated Personal Data” section.
5. Google Analytics
We may allow third party service providers to use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activities over time and across different websites following your use of the Services. For example, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”).

AnyRoad, like many businesses, sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions, where we may share Personal Data, Aggregated Personal Data, and automatically-collected information. Examples of such functions include mailing information, maintaining databases, and processing payments. When we employ another entity to perform a function of this nature, we only provide them with the information that they need to perform their specific function.
