ConsumersWeek.com is a web property owned and operated by Maven Media, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how your personal information is collected, used, and disclosed. This Privacy Policy describes the information we collect when you access or interact with ConsumersWeek.com and how that information is used, stored, and safeguarded in accordance with applicable laws.
By accessing or using our website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
1. Information We Collect Automatically
When you visit the site, we and our service providers may automatically collect: IP address, browser type and version, device information, pages visited and time spent, referring and exit pages, and approximate location data where available.
2. Information You Provide Through Forms
We may collect personal information you voluntarily provide when submitting a form on our website, which may include your name, email address, phone number, ZIP code, and, where applicable to a quote or service request, details such as loan amount, credit score range, coverage status, or vehicle information.
Where a form connects you with third-party providers, the consent language on that form identifies how your information will be used and which partner or partners may contact you, before you submit. Email newsletter opt-in is always a separate consent from any consent to be contacted by third-party partners.
3. How We Use Information
We use collected information to provide and improve our services, respond to inquiries, analyze trends and site usage, display relevant content and advertising, fulfill requests you initiate through the site, and comply with legal obligations.
4. Cookies and Third-Party Advertising
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share your data with: service providers and partners involved in delivering content, offers, or services you request; legal authorities when required by law; third-party ad networks for remarketing or analytics in a non-personally identifiable form; and a successor entity in the event of a business transfer or acquisition. Form submissions made through quote-request flows may be shared with the third-party partners identified at the point of submission for the purpose of fulfilling your request.
6. Data Security and Retention
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data and retain it only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law. No internet transmission is ever fully secure.
7. Your Choices
You may disable cookies in your browser settings, opt out of interest-based ads through Google or the NAI, and contact us to request access to or deletion of personal data we may hold about you.
