Privacy Policy

This site is owned and operated by Shine Time Express Carwash. Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At Shine Time Express Carwash, we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe.

Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel you should fully understand the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.

Shine Time Express Carwash gathers two types of information about users: information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions; and information gathered through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. Under no circumstances does Shine Time Express Carwash divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.

We offer free services which require some type of voluntary submission of personal information by users, including electronic newsletters, message boards and forums, an “e-mail this to a friend” service, polling and surveys.

Users who subscribe to a newsletter may remove themselves from the mailing list by following the link provided in every newsletter. Opinions or other responses to polls are aggregated and are not identifiable to any particular user.

We may occasionally conduct user surveys to better target our content to our audience. We sometimes share aggregated demographic information with our sponsors, advertisers and partners. We never share any of this information about specific individuals with any third party.

Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without requesting parental consent.

Shine Time Express Carwash tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. We do break down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string.

We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall.

We may place a text file called a “cookie” in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain personal information, although it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites.

You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site.

Shine Time Express Carwash uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide interactive or personalised elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users.

Shine Time Express Carwash never shares newsletter mailing lists with any third parties, including advertisers, sponsors or partners.

We create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners. Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser or sponsor will never know that a specific user clicked their ad.

Shine Time Express Carwash uses the above-described information to tailor our content to suit your needs and help our advertisers better understand our audience's demographics. We will not share information about individual users with any third party, except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process, or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.

Shine Time Express Carwash operates secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary, and only authorised individuals have access to the information provided by our customers.

We give users options wherever necessary and practical. Such choices include opting not to register to receive our electronic newsletters, and opting not to participate in certain interactive areas.

By using this site, you consent to the collection and use of this information by Shine Time Express Carwash. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
