We may receive vehicle data transmitted from a telematics device installed onboard a vehicle that is connected to the Services. Vehicle data may include vehicle location, speed, acceleration, braking, trip distance and time, engine idling, and vehicle health. Charging infrastructure data may include location, charge time, charging ports and power, utilization, model, and pricing. Generally this vehicle data is not associated with a particular individual and therefor is not personal information. However, if we do associate with a particular individual, then we will treat it as personal information in accordance with this Policy. For more information on vehicle data, see our Terms of Use.
Information Use and Sharing
We will use your information to fulfill contractual duties with our customers which may include sharing your information with them, to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us, to provide the Site and the Services, to improve the Site and the Services, to protect the Site and the Services, to enforce our terms, conditions and policies for business purposes, to comply with legal requirements, to respond to legal requests and to prevent harm. We may share this personal information with our service providers so they may provide services to us on our behalf. We may share vehicle data with our service providers, including our fleet management data and analytics providers, to provide services on our behalf and charging infrastructure developers so they can understand vehicle travel and charging infrastructure needs. We reserve the right to disclose and/or transfer personal information to a third party, if we have reason to believe that disclosing personal information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other website users, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. Additionally, we may disclose personal information in response to a subpoena, warrant or other court order, or when we believe in good faith that a law, regulation, subpoena, warrant or other court order requires it—or authorizes us to do so—or to respond to an emergency situation.
