As you navigate through and interact with our Services, we may also use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain information from your device, browser, or other network activities as described in our Cookie Policy, available at https://company.plugshare.com/cookies.html.

Website Visit and Device Information. We collect details of your visits to our Websites and use of our Mobile Apps, including, but not limited to, traffic data, geolocation data, logs, and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on the Websites. We collect information about your computer, mobile device, and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system, browser type, clickstream patterns (i.e., what you click on in a website), the URL of the most recent website you visited before coming to our Websites, the amount of time you spent on our Websites, and the pages you viewed while on our Websites. We may derive a rough estimate of your location from your IP address when you visit our Websites. For users of our Mobile Apps, we may also collect and maintain a history of your precise location information using Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth technologies, as well as your device identifiers and GPS coordinates (e.g., latitude/longitude). If you want to prevent the collection of your location information, please adjust your settings in your mobile device to limit the Mobile App’s access to your location information.

When you use our website, we share information that we collect from you, such as your email (in hashed form), IP address or information about your browser or operating system, with our identity partners/service providers. These partners return an online identification code that we may store in our first-party cookie for our use in online, in-app, and cross-channel advertising and it may be shared with advertising companies to enable interest-based and targeted advertising. To opt out of this use, please click here (https://liveramp.com/opt_out/)

Behavioral Tracking. We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services, or associate Personal Information with other information collected in this manner.

Location Analytics: Our Mobile Apps and mobile browser Websites include functionality (e.g., for submission of a driver review of a charging facility) which allows us to identify a driver’s location and the charging facility location at which a user is currently located. We collect information such as IP address, device ID, and geolocation. Mobile App users can choose to use the Mobile Apps anonymously or to login as an identified user, in which case the personal data provided upon registration may be used.

For users of the Mobile Apps, we may ask permission to access certain information from your mobile device, including your contact list, photos and videos, and microphone and camera. It is optional for you to provide us with access to this information. However, certain features of the Mobile Apps may not function optimally if you decide to not provide us with permission. 

Web Beacons. Pages of our Websites and our emails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) that permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).

Pixel Tracking. In addition to using cookies, the Websites may employ “pixel tracking.” Pixel tracking involves the use of pixel tags that are not visible to the user and consist of a few lines of computer code. Pixel tracking measures the effectiveness of advertisements and compiles aggregate and specific usage statistics. We may access these pixel tags to identify activity and interests that may allow us to better match our Products, Services, and offers with your interests and needs. For example, if you visit our Websites from an advertisement on another website, the pixel tag will allow the advertiser to track that its advertisement brought you to the Websites. If you visit our Websites, and we link you to another website, we also may be able to determine that you were sent to and/or transacted with a third-party website.

GIF. We may use tiny images known as clear GIFs to track behavior of users, including statistics on who opens our emails.

IP Address. Our servers (or those of our service providers) automatically record certain log file information reported from your browser when you access the Websites. These server logs may include information such as which pages of the Websites you visited, your internet protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, and other information on how you interact with the Websites. These log files are generally deleted periodically.

Third-Party Metrics and Analytics. Third-party metrics and analytics, on certain pages or features of the Services to help us understand and analyze visitor traffic, measure the promotional effectiveness and efficacy of our features, offerings, and marketing campaigns. We also use these tools to identify pitfalls, shortcomings, and areas of our operations in need of improvement, and to view the overall performance and ranking of our online presence. These tools might store cookies on your device at their discretion.

2.3 SOCIAL MEDIA PLUGINS

We integrate social media application program interfaces or plug-ins (“Plug-ins”) from social networks, including Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, Xing, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest and/or possibly other companies, into the Websites. In order to register as a user with us, you may have the option to sign in using your Facebook or other social media site login.

For example, when you visit our Websites, the plugin creates a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server. This allows Facebook to receive information about your visit to our Websites with your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while you are logged on to your Facebook account, you can link the contents of our Websites to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to assign your visit to our Websites to your user account.

This information may include your platform user identification number, which website you are on, and more. Interacting with a Plug-in will transmit information directly to that Plug-in’s social network and that information may be visible by others on that platform.

3.5 REQUIRED DISCLOSURES; PROTECTION OF RIGHTS; SAFETY

Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, we will not disclose your Personal Information to any unaffiliated party unless required to do so by law, court order, legal process (e.g., subpoena), including, but not limited to, in order to respond to any government, regulatory, or licensing request, or if we believe that such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law, comply with legal process served on us or our affiliates, subsidiaries, contracted vendors, or affinity partners, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities; (b) enforce our Terms or customer agreement (including for billing and collection purposes); (c) take precautions against liability; (d) investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations; (e) assist government enforcement agencies or to meet national or other government security requirements; (f) to protect the security or integrity of our Websites, our, Services, and mobile applications; or, (g) exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of us, our users or others.

In instances where we comply with legal requests without notice for these reasons, we will attempt to notify that user about the request after the fact if we determine in good faith that we are no longer legally prohibited from doing so and that no risk scenarios described in this paragraph apply.

3.6 DISCLOSURE OF DE-IDENTIFIED PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may share De-Identified Personal Information (including, but not limited to, anonymous usage data, referring/exit pages and URLs, IP address, platform types, number of clicks, etc.) with unaffiliated parties in any way we choose and for any purpose, such as for system administration and to monitor usage of the Websites; for measuring the number of visits to our Websites, average time spent, number of pages viewed; and monitoring various other Website statistics to improve the content.

4.  “DO NOT TRACK” REQUESTS

Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) or similar feature that signals to websites that a user does not want to have his or her online activity and behavior tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, many website operators, including PlugShare, do not respond to DNT signals.

5. PLUGSHARE COMMUNICATIONS, PREFERENCES, AND OPTING OUT

By providing us with your email address you consent to our using the email address to send you Service-related notices by email, including, but not limited to, any notices required by law (e.g., notice of data privacy or security incidents), in lieu of communication by postal mail. You also agree that we may send you notifications of activity regarding our Products, Services, the Websites, the mobile applications, your Personal Information, or any aspect of our relationship, to the email address you give us, in accordance with any applicable privacy settings. We may use your email address to send you other messages or content, such as, but not limited to, newsletters, additions or changes to features of the Service, or special offers. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may opt out by clicking on Unsubscribe where available. Opting out may prevent you from receiving email messages regarding updates, improvements, special features, announcements, or offers. You may not opt out of Service-related emails. If you have elected not to provide us with an email or other address you may not receive our Service-related emails.

Through your user account settings page, you may access and, in some cases, edit, or delete certain information you have provided to us, such as name and password, email address, address, user profile information, etc. The information that you can view, update, and delete may change as the Products, Websites, Services or our practices change. If you have any questions about viewing or updating information we have on file about you, please contact us. When you update information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised information in our records. You may request deletion of your account by emailing us. It is your responsibility to maintain your current email address with us. Depending on which state or country you reside in you may have additional rights. Please see below for further information.

6. DEVELOPERS USING PLUGSHARE PLATFORM SERVICES

We collaborate with and allow third parties to use PlugShare’s developer platform to offer services and functionality in conjunction with PlugShare. These third party developers have either negotiated an agreement to use the PlugShare platform technology or have agreed to our self-service Application Programming Interfaces (“API”) and Plug-In terms in order to build software platform applications (“Platform Applications”). Both the negotiated agreements and our API and Plug-In terms of use contain restrictions on how third parties may access, store, and use the Personal Information you provide to PlugShare. If you choose to use a Platform Application, you will be asked to confirm acceptance of the privacy policy and user agreement of the third party developer. To revoke permission granted to a Platform Application, please visit your settings. Note, however, that even if you revoke the permission granted to a Platform Application, your connections may still be using the Platform Application, so the Platform Application may still have access to certain information about you, just as your connections do.

7. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

The time period for which we retain your Personal Information depends on the purposes for which we use it. We will retain your Personal Information for as long as your account is active, or as long as you are a registered account holder or user of our Services or for as long as we have another business purpose to do so (such as, but not limited to, for business, tax, or legal purposes) and, thereafter, for no longer than is required or permitted by law, or our records retention policy, reasonably necessary for internal reporting and reconciliation purposes, or to provide you with feedback or information you might request. This period of retention is subject to our review and alteration. We may retain De-Identified Personal Information for as long as we deem appropriate.

Following termination or deactivation of your user account, we may retain your profile information and all information posted to public areas of the Websites. Following termination or deactivation of your user account, we may retain your Personal Information and other data, but will maintain it as confidential according to the Terms, this Privacy Policy, and as required by applicable law. We have the right to delete all of your Personal Information and other data after termination of your user account without notice to you.

8. NO INTENTIONAL COLLECTION OF CHILDREN’S DATA

We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain Personal Information from anyone under the age of 18 or knowingly allow such persons to register for or use our Services.

You may only make a request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable Consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Information or that an authorized representative has made the request.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.

To exercise the rights to opt out of cross-context behavioral advertising, targeted advertising, or the sharing of Personal Information as described above, you will need to opt out based on what platform you are on.  Note that your request to opt out is specific to the device and platform where you submit that request, so you may need to submit multiple requests if you intend to opt out of these specific processing activities for multiple devices and platforms.

Upon verification of your identity we will proceed to process your request and respond within 45 calendar days, unless (a) we are unable to verify your request, (b) if we are unable to match you with information in our database, or (c) if an exception under the law exists exempting us from complying with your request. If we require more time (up to an additional forty-five (45) calendar days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If we are unable to comply with your request, the response we provide will explain the reasons for this. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable Consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
