This FCA US Privacy Policy (our “Privacy Policy”) describes how we collect, use, disclose, share, and otherwise process the personal information described in this Privacy Policy, as well as the rights and choices individuals have regarding their personal information.

If you are a California resident, please review our California Privacy Supplement for additional information about our privacy practices and your California privacy rights, including your right to opt out of sales and sharing of personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”).

Your access to and use of our Services (as defined below) is subject to our applicable terms and agreements, including the FCA Website Terms of Use, and, as applicable, our App End User License Agreement, the FCA Connected Service Terms of Service, and the SiriusXM Guardian Terms of Services (collectively, the “Terms”).

We may also provide additional privacy notices (“additional notice”) for specific products, programs, events, promotions, services, features, incentives, or other offers that we provide or make available. For example, the FCA Connected Services Privacy Notice applies to and provides more detail about our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information related to the Connected Services. If you participate in a sweepstake, incentive program, or other promotion, additional privacy terms may apply as set forth in the terms for that promotion.

Third-Party Analytics. Some of the analytics tools we use may be provided by third-party analytics companies. For example, we use Google Analytics (more info: privacy and opt-out) to evaluate use of our Websites and Services, and to help us understand and improve our Services and our marketing and advertising campaigns. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons or local storage objects, to perform their services.

Targeted Advertising. We may work with third-party ad networks, channel partners, measurement services, and others (“third-party ad companies”) to personalize content and advertising on our Services, and to manage our advertising on third-party sites, mobile apps, and online services. We and these third-party ad companies may use cookies, pixels tags, and other tools to collect activity information, IP address, device ID, advertising IDs, and other identifiers, and location information within our Services (as well as on third-party sites and services). We and these third-party ad companies use this information to provide you more relevant ads and content within our Services and on third-party sites and services, as well as to improve and evaluate the success of such ads and content. 

We also may share certain customer list information (such as your email address) with third-party ad companies so that we can better target these customers and others with similar interests on third-party sites and platforms.

7. SECURITY

We have implemented safeguards that are intended to protect the personal information we collect from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your password, phone, and computer by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, choosing a robust password that nobody else knows or can easily guess, and keeping your log-in and password private.

You should review the privacy policy on any website, mobile application, or online service.

Our Services may also contain links to co-branded websites that may display the FCA US logo and trademarks but are maintained by third parties, and do not display this Privacy Policy.
