Collected Information:
In general, we do not collect personal information from individuals visiting this Site unless such information is provided to us voluntarily and knowingly or automatically collected as you navigate through the Site. Personal information is any information or data that may be used to distinguish or trace an individual’s identity such as a name, phone number or date of birth.
Voluntarily Provided Personal Information:
We may collect information that identifies, relates to, describes or is capable of being associated with a particular individual such as name, address and telephone number. By filling out and submitting forms on our Site, including the “Reach Us Here” form, or providing your personal information via other means (such as email or direct inquiry), you authorize and agree that a representative of CTS can contact you, potentially using automated technology (including but not limited to text/SMS messaging) or a pre-recorded message. We may contact you from time to time with information that relates to your requests or interests, however, you always have the option to opt-out by contacting us at privsec@ctstransit.com. Only our authorized employees or agents, such as those involved with the operation of this Site, have access to the personal information you provide, and we will never sell this information.
Non-Personal Statistical Information:
We may collect internet or other electronic network activity information, including online identifiers, Mac address, IP address, cookie IDs, browser activity, search history, information regarding your interaction with our website and similar information.
When you interact with this Site, certain non-personal statistical information, such as website traffic data, usage patterns and information about your computer and internet connection, may be automatically collected and used to improve the design, structure and functionality of this Site. This information is collected using industry standard encryption technologies and used solely by CTS and those involved with the operation of this Site. This information may be collected using cookies, web beacons and other standard tracking technologies, as well as through your web browser or device (such as IP address, browser version, etc.). CTS will never provide or sell information or data from this Site to third parties other than authorized employees or agents, such as our Service Providers.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technology:
This Site may use cookies, tracking pixels and related standard technologies for automatic data collection. These can only be accessed by CTS and authorized service providers of CTS (“Service Providers”). More specifically, we work with independent service providers, including Google Analytics and inkByte, to help us track and analyze visitor activity on our Site, measure the effectiveness of our advertising efforts, and optimize the overall visitor experience. When you access our Site, your web browser automatically sends certain information to these Service Providers. We do not provide Google with any information that identifies you personally. By accessing our Site, you consent to the collection and use of your information by them.
You can learn how Google uses the information from your web browser here. You are encouraged to review Google’s Privacy Policy and contact Google directly if you have questions. If you do not want any information to be collected and used as described in this paragraph, you can download and install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or use the Network Advertising Initiative Opt-Out Tool or Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out Tool.
Most internet browsers accept cookies by default, however, users may modify browser preferences to block or limit cookies. Most internet browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. Because no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. CTS is not responsible for the effectiveness or compliance of third party opt-out mechanisms. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Website Privacy Policy.
Upon visiting this Site, you should receive the option to accept cookies to optimize the user’s experience on the Site. You may access the information on this Site without enabling cookies in your browser but disabling cookies may result in a diminished ability to take advantage of the services and related informational content of this Site.
