If you are a parent or legal guardian and are interested in learning about our policy regarding the collection and use of personal information from children under 18, please see Question 11 below. Please be aware, however, that we only collect personal information from children on a very small number of websites operated by AVIS TAIWAN, specifically those with strong appeal to children under 18 or that knowingly collect personal information from children under 18.
To simply browse AVIS TAIWAN website, we do not ask you to provide any information. However, if you wish to participate in many of the features and services our website have to offer, we may ask you to provide certain personal and/or demographic information. Personal information (as used in this Privacy Notice) refers to any information that can be used to personally identify you or contact you online or offline. This may include, for example, your name, postal address, e-mail address, phone number, ("personally identifiable information") as well as demographic information such as your date of birth, age, gender, habits or preferences when such information is tied to your personally identifiable information (collectively, "personal information").
Personal information is only collected with your consent (i. e. if you knowingly provide it to us through one of the many online forms available on our website) and will usually take the form of:
‧Registration or sign-up on a AVIS TAIWAN website ("general website registration");
‧Sign up for a newsletter that is specific to an event, product, or website and that is not included under general website registration;
‧Sweepstakes, contests, or other promotions;
‧Surveys and polls;
‧Message boards and other interactive activities;
‧Purchasing a AVIS TAIWAN product through one of our online stores;
‧E-cards, tell-a-friend, or other one-time use features;
‧Feedback, questions, or comments through one of our "Contact" or "Ask the Expert" forms;
‧Information submitted in a business capacity (e. g. resumes, media requests, etc.);
‧Online recruitment (e. g. apply for job vacancies at AVIS TAIWAN by posting your CV);
‧Signing up a friend to participate in product-specific campaigns; or,
‧Any other request that requires the submission of personal information (e. g. consumer panel, product request, "Where to Buy," etc.).
Note: depending on the AVIS TAIWAN website that you are visiting, some or many of the activities listed above may not be available.
The type and amount of information collected for the features listed above will vary depending on the activity. The requested personal information may include: first and last name, email address, home address, telephone number (work or home), and credit card information (for those purchasing products online). For some activities, you may be asked to create a username and/or password and/or to provide additional, demographic information, including: (i) your age or date of birth, (ii) gender, (iii) frequency of use, purchase, and consumption of certain AVIS TAIWAN products and/or other similar products, (iv) facts about your household or lifestyle, and/or, (v) other information relevant to the AVIS TAIWAN product you've purchased or the specific website which you are visiting.
AVIS TAIWAN takes all necessary technical and organizational measures to protect the confidentiality and security of your personal information collected from our website, including sensitive personal information and personal information from children under 18. These efforts include, but not limited to: (i) storing your personal information in secure operating environments that are not available to the public and that are only accessible to authorized AVIS TAIWAN employees, and our agents and contractors; (ii) using industry-standard SSL encryption to protect the security of certain sensitive personal information (such as credit card information, health or patient information) during transmission to our website, and, (iii) verifying the identities of registered Website users before they can access the personal information we maintain about them. Please also see Question 4 below.
Generally, all information collected is used for the purpose provided for which you submitted the information to us or as otherwise identified at the point of collection or in this Privacy Notice. For example, if you sign up or register on a AVIS TAIWAN website ("general website registration"), the information you provide is used to offer you the benefits and privileges that typically come along with registration. This may include access to and use of exclusive or personalized content or activities on the AVIS TAIWAN website (e. g. message boards, upload features, personalized recipe boxes, etc.), participation in special events and promotions (contests, sweepstakes, coupons, etc.), and the ability to receive the communications or marketing materials you select at the time of registration or that automatically come with your registration. Similarly, if you contact us via an online contact form or through one of our "Ask the Expert" features, your information is used to respond to your inquiry or comment, and in some instances, post the answers to your question in anonymous form on the relevant website. And, of course, any credit card information you provide us is used to fulfil and process your online purchases.
When registering or providing information on AVIS TAIWAN websites, you may also be given the option (through a check box or otherwise) to have your information used for an activity or service different from the primary activity or service that you are requesting. For example, if you are signing up for a contest or other promotion, you may also be able to sign up for newsletters or alerts from the website hosting the promotion or from other websites or AVIS TAIWAN products. If you choose to receive these additional services, we will use your information to provide them to you.
We may also use your personal and/or demographic information for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve, personalize, and customize the products and services we provide you and to better meet your needs. This may include occasionally combining, updating, or otherwise enhancing the personal information collected through a AVIS TAIWAN Website with data we receive from outside records or third parties.
Generally, we retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you the services requested. Of course, if you request that we no longer use your personal information to provide you services (e. g. opt-out of receiving email) or would like to cancel your membership or account, please Contact Us. Please note that your personal information will be retained for a reasonable period of time and as necessary to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and similar records management purposes.
The following provides additional information about certain features on AVIS TAIWAN website:
‧Newsletters and Email
If you provide us your email address and/or mailing address (whether as part of our general website registration or for a specific newsletter or communication), the contact information you provide will be used to send you the requested newsletter, communication, or literature. In addition, you may receive communications introducing you to other AVIS TAIWAN brands or websites. These materials may come in the form of regular mail or email, depending on the website you register on and the information you provide during registration.
We may also use your email address to send you transactional or administrative communications (e. g. confirmation email when you purchase a product online or when you sign up for, or unsubscribe from, a specific registration or activity), as well as certain service-related announcements (e. g. notices about updates to our Privacy Notice, discontinued features or programs on our website, changes to our online services or technical support policies, or other related changes). Collectively, these types of communications are referred to in this Privacy Notice as "Administrative Communications."
‧Sweepstakes, Contests, and Promotions
To enter an online sweepstakes, contest, or other promotion (collectively, "Promotions"), you may be required to first register on a AVIS TAIWAN website. The information collected as part of a Promotion is used to determine your eligibility, notify you whether you are a winner, and/or fulfill and deliver prizes. If you are a winner, certain information about you (such as your name and picture) may get posted to the relevant AVIS TAIWAN website. If children under 18 are allowed to participate in a Promotion, we first obtain parental consent, if required.
For more information about Promotions, please see the official rules or details posted with the specific Promotion.
‧Surveys and Polls
There are two types of surveys or polls that may be conducted on AVIS TAIWAN website. One is where purely demographic or survey information (e. g. age, gender, household information, and other interests, etc.) is requested and the information is not linked to any personal information about you. In other cases (such as during account registration), we may collect this same information and combine it with your personal information. If children under 18 are allowed to participate in surveys or polls that collect or are linked to personal information, a parent's prior verifiable consent will be obtained.
‧Message boards and other interactive features
We may provide interactive features that allow you to post or publish messages, stories, pictures, or artwork on our website. Although we strive to protect those who use and participate in these activities, we encourage you to be wary of giving out personal information or images about yourself in public areas such as on a message board or other online community-type feature. Such information can be collected and used by people you don't know. As such, we cannot guarantee the security and privacy of, and are not responsible for, any information you post in these areas. Your use of these features is at your own risk. To request removal of your personal information from our blog or community forum, please Contact Us. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.
Please note that if we choose to post a picture or message that you provide us through one of these features, we may post, along with the picture or message, certain information about you, such as your username, first name, first initial of your last name, and/or city and state of residence.
‧Purchasing AVIS TAIWAN products online
Some of our websites may allow you to purchase AVIS TAIWAN products through an online store operated by us or by a vendor on our behalf ("AVIS TAIWAN Online Store"), while some of our websites may provide links to, unaffiliated companies that are not under control of AVIS TAIWAN through either direct or indirect ownership ("third party", or collectively, "third parties"), websites that sell AVIS TAIWAN products. If you are purchasing a product through a AVIS TAIWAN Online Store, you will be asked to provide your credit card information, including credit card number and billing and shipping addresses, as well as other basic contact information (e. g. phone, email address). This information is used to fulfill your purchase and confirm your order.
If the online store you are visiting is operated by a third party, we may provide you a direct link to the third party store for your convenience. Please note, however, that these websites are not operated by us and are therefore not covered by this Privacy Policy. We are selective in who we choose to partner with to sell AVIS TAIWAN products online and only work with online retailers who (like ourselves) use industry-standard encryption when collecting and processing orders through their websites. This helps prevent unauthorized electronic access to your personal information, such as your credit card number. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of the online store you are visiting before sharing any personal information such as your credit card number.
‧E-cards, tell-a-friend, and other one-time use features
Personal information requested for an e-card, tell-a-friend or other referral feature, or other one-time use features (typically, names and email addresses) is used on a one-time basis (e. g. to send the communication) and is not further retained by us. If these kinds of features are made available to children under 18, they are designed in a way that prior parental consent is required.
‧Business-related information
Please be advised that in some areas of our Websites, you may be able to submit information about yourself or the company you represent in a business capacity. These areas may include a career section where you can submit a resume or job application online or a section or contact form to handle media requests. Although any personal information gathered in this context is used exclusively for its intended purpose (e. g. a resume will be used for the job application process only), such information is not otherwise subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
‧Healthcare and Nutritional Sites
Some of our websites provide nutritional and/or health-related information and tools that are intended for healthcare professionals, consumers, or both. In addition to basic contact information (e. g. name, email address, etc.)
As with other websites, this information is used for the purposes identified at the time of collection, i. e. to provide and send the registered user relevant nutritional and/or health information and to give them access to member-only benefits and tools. Some tools on these Nutritional websites may allow you to enter and display certain health or patient information on the website itself. This information is made available for online reference only and, unless otherwise noted, is not simultaneously collected or retained by us.
If you choose not to submit any personal information when requested, you may not be able to participate in certain activities and personalized features on our website and may limit the services and special offers we can provide you. For example, if you refuse to share your email address, you will not be able to receive any of our newsletters or otherwise register on our website. If you refuse to provide your credit card number, you will not be able to purchase products at an AVIS TAIWAN Online Store. However, to simply browse our website and learn more about our products, you do not need to give us any personal information.
AVIS TAIWAN will never share your personal information with any third party that intends to use it for direct marketing purposes unless we have specifically informed you and you have given us specific permission to do this.
AVIS TAIWAN may share your personal information with its subsidiary companies, companies in which AVIS TAIWAN has control through either direct or indirect ownership (collectively " AVIS TAIWAN "). AVIS TAIWAN may also share your personal information with third parties, but only in the following circumstances:
Service Providers, Agents and Contractors
We may use third parties, like service providers, agents or contractors to provide support for the internal operations of our website and to assist us with administering the website or the various functions, programs and promotions available on it.

If your personal information is being collected by (or is shared with) a company other than AVIS TAIWAN as part of such promotion, we will let you know this at the time your personal information is collected. Periodically, we may run a promotion on our website that features the products or services of another company and will give you the opportunity to opt in to receive information directly from that third party company. If any of these promotions is made available to children under 18, we will first obtain verifiable consent from the parent before sharing the child's personal information.
When doing any promotion involving another company, we may provide a separate link to that company's privacy policy and we encourage you to read it before you share any personal information, as we cannot guarantee they adhere to the same privacy practices.

Legal and Business Transfers

Similarly, personal information may be transferred as part of a corporate reorganization, insolvency proceeding, or other similar event, if permitted by and done in accordance with applicable law.

We recognize the importance of safeguarding the privacy of children on the Internet and that information collected from children under 18 ("children" or "child") requires special handling. As such, we have developed the following policy for the online collection, use, and disclosure of personal information from children. We recommend that parents explore our websites with their children and that they remind their children to check with a parent before providing any personal information about themselves.
The majority of the websites operated by AVIS TAIWAN are not geared toward children and do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children under 18. On some of our websites that may appeal to people of all ages, we may take steps to ensure that those who wish to register or submit personal information meet certain age requirements before they can do so.
The following is a description of our practices for the few websites that may appeal to or collect information from children under 18.
Collection of Children's Information
Anonymous or Non-Personal Information
Children can generally surf our website, view content, and play games without providing any personal information such as name or email address. On some websites, children may be asked to provide anonymous or non-personal information (such as username, password, first name, and city and state of residence) in order to gain access to personalized features or features that allow children to keep track of high-score games, store favorites, personalize web pages, or perform other similar activities. When only anonymous information is required for registration, we may allow children to use their birthday (month and day only) for their password. This helps the child remember his/her password more easily.
Personal Information
If there is a website that collects personal information from children (such as in the case of certain newsletters, competitions, contests/sweepstakes, and other similar events), the information collected may include the child's name and email address and the parent's name and email address, in addition to other information that is mechanical or necessary to provide the feature or service being requested (e. g. month and day of birth for a birthday card). Typically, this information will only be stored and used on a continual basis if we have first received prior verifiable consent from a parent or legal guardian ("parent"). The mechanism used to obtain the parent's consent may differ depending on the information required for the activity and the intended uses of such information. For example, if a child signs up for a newsletter or other registration feature on our website, we may send a notice to the parent via email, and depending on the feature, either tell the parent how to opt out their child from the activity or provide their approval. If a parent then provides the necessary approval, we may follow up with a confirmation email. If, instead, the parent opts out their child or chooses not to authorize the activity or registration, any information that might have already been provided by the child is deleted. In other instances such as when a child participates in (i) a contest and wins a prize, or (ii) an activity that involves the possible publication of a child's personal information or story on a website, we may require more reliable forms of consent such as a parent's written consent. In addition, where applicable, parents will be given the opportunity to consent to the collection and use of their child's personal information by us, without also agreeing to the disclosure of that personal information to third parties.
Under all circumstances, we will only collect personal information about a child if we have received the parental consent. We will also limit the personal information collected to that which is reasonably necessary for a child to participate in a specific feature. This means that if we don't need a specific piece of personal information about your child (such as phone number) to allow your child to sign up for and receive a newsletter, we simply won't ask for it. To read more about the steps we take to protect the confidentiality and security of children's personal information, please see our section on security above.
We do not collect any personal information about a child through the use of passive collection mechanisms such as cookies; however, information contained in a cookie may be linked to a child's personal information. For more information on how we use cookies and other tracking technologies, please see the relevant section above.
Use of Children's Personal Information
Once collected, a child's personal information is only used for the purpose for which the information was originally collected and that the parent has consented to (where consent is required). For example, if a child signs up for (and the parent authorizes) an electronic newsletter or announcement, the child's email address is used to deliver the requested announcement.
Parental Access/Control
If you are a parent that has given us permission to collect and store your child's personal information, you can do the following at any time:
1. Review your child's personal information by visiting the appropriate parental approval/review page. A link to this page will be available in the notice(s) we sent you when we originally requested and obtained your consent.
2. Discontinue further use or collection of your child's personal information (i. e. unsubscribe). To do so, please visit the unsubscribe page available on the website where your child registered or follow the unsubscribe process or directions provided in the newsletter or email sent to your child's email account.
3. Request that we delete your child's personal information by following the procedures in #2 above. Unsubscribing your child will delete his/her personal information from our records.
If any of the options set forth above are not available or you wish to make a different request, please either: (i) refer to the documentation provided to you when you gave your consent; or, (ii) Contact Us. Please be sure to have the following information ready for verification purposes: your child's name and email address, your name and email address, and the name of the website at which your child registered.
If you permit your child to register on a website or participate in other website activities available to children under 18, your child may also have the ability to review, modify, or delete his/her personal information associated with such registration or activity. This may include the ability to unsubscribe himself/herself from a feature that you've consented to.
We may link this website to other companies or organizations websites (collectively, "third party sites"). This Privacy Notice does not apply to such third party sites as those sites are outside our control. If you access third party sites using the links provided, the operators of these websites may collect your personal information. Please ensure that you are satisfied with the Privacy Policies of these third party sites before you submit any personal information. We try, as far as we can, to ensure that all third party linked sites have equivalent measures for protection of your personal information, but we cannot be held responsible legally or otherwise for the activities, privacy policies or levels of privacy compliance of these third party sites.
