  • Your PartsWarehouse.com user ID and password (if applicable)

  • An IP address
  • Device identifying information
  • Browser identifying information
  • Operating System information
  • Date and time

This Privacy Policy describes how we use PII and AI in order to perform Our Services. Unless otherwise specifically required by applicable law, by using Our Site or otherwise contacting Us, or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, you expressly consent to the collection, use and - where required - disclosure of Your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We respect Your privacy, and We assure you that We will maintain and use this information responsibly.

Your contact with Us, and the information which You Provide and / or We Collect from You can generally be classified as follows:

Website Browsing:
Whether You are a customer of Ours or not, We collect AI, including data about Your visit and how You browse, information about the device, operating system and browser You use, Your network connection, Your IP address and the date/time stamp for Your visit. If You are a customer of Ours, we will also collect data about how and when You access Your Account. We use this information to see which areas are most visited, which helps Us improve the quality of visitors' online shopping experiences by recognizing and delivering more of the features, services and products which Our visitors prefer. We may also use this information to provide You advertising or marketing information.

Account Registration:
The registration of an Account requires You to provide certain Personal Information, including a full legal name, current address, phone number, a valid email address and certain other information indicated as required. If You choose to purchase from Us, You will also be required to submit a credit card/debit card number, expiration date and security code, which information will be encrypted and stored on Our secure servers and passed - in an encrypted form - to Our payment processing Partner for payment.

Phone or Text:
If you call Us or send Us a Text message, your telephone number and call audio / text transcript will be recorded on Our secure servers. This information is only used to respond to your Customer Service inquiries, and for training to enhance Our Customer Service, and for no other purpose.

Email or Chat:
If you email Us from a form on Our Site or from an external source, or open a Chat on Our Site, You may provide PII, and we collect AI. This information is only used to respond to your Customer Service inquiries, and for training to enhance Our Customer Service, and for no other purpose.

Our use of PII and AI:
We do not sell, rent, trade or otherwise receive valuable consideration by providing Your PII or AI to third parties. We will not use any PII or AI we collect from You to contact or market to You without your permission. We will only use or disclose any PII or AI in the following circumstances:

  • as necessary to provide the Services to You

  • as required by law, or based on our good faith belief that it is necessary to conform or comply with the law
  • to outside auditors who have agreed to keep the information confidential
  • to a successor organization in the event of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or other sale or disposition of all or a portion of Our assets
  • as necessary to enforce Our Terms of Service
