("Coach USA," "We" or "Us") is committed to respecting the privacy rights of visitors to the websites operated by Coach USA and its affiliated companies, including without limitation www.coachusa.com and www.coachcanada.com (the "Sites"). While visiting the Sites, We may ask you ("You" or "Your") to provide information that personally identifies You, including but not limited to, Your E-mail address, name, home address, credit card and billing information ("Personal Information") for the purpose of interacting with the Sites. To further the protection of Your Personal Information, Coach USA has adopted the privacy policies outlined below, which serve as the basis for our user and advertiser relationships. This Privacy Policy is intended to comply with privacy laws applicable to Coach USA, its affiliated companies (such as Coach Canada) and the operation of the Sites. This Privacy Policy, however, does not cover Coach USA's or its affiliated companies' offline privacy practices.
1. INFORMATION COLLECTED:
We collect two types of information about users: "Personal Information" (such as name, email address, mailing address, phone, personal preferences and other account-related information) and "Aggregate Information" (such as information about how many users log on to the Sites on a daily basis). Personal Information is collected online when users voluntarily submits non-public personal information on the Sites by establishing a customer account, requesting information, booking reservations or tickets, purchasing our products or otherwise engaging our services, receiving electronic notices or other similar communications and other similar activities. Aggregate Information is non-personally identifiable/anonymous information about You, such as age, gender, pages most frequently accessed by You or search terms entered by You. Aggregate Information is used in a collective manner, and no single person can be identified by that compiled information (for example, the number of people who logged into the Sites in a particular day). Aggregate Information does not personally identify a specific user. Your Personal Information will be retained for fulfillment of the intended purposes for which such Personal Information is collected. We will establish minimum and maximum retention periods based upon the type of information collected (i.e. sensitivity), the intended purposes and as otherwise may be legally required.
2. SECURITY:
Coach USA maintains commercially reasonable safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the Personal Information provided by You. Such security safeguards are intended to be appropriate to the sensitivity of the Personal Information collected. To the extent Coach USA transfers any Personal Information to third-parties, Coach USA will use commercially reasonable efforts to assure that such third-parties to whom We may transfer any Personal Information have knowledge of our Privacy Policy and provide sufficient protection of such Personal Information.
3. COOKIES:
Like many other commercial websites, the Sites may utilize a standard technology called a "cookie" to collect information about how the Site is used. A "cookie" is a small text file placed on your hard drive by our web page server. These cookies do not collect Personal Information, only Aggregate Information, and We do not combine Aggregate Information collected through cookies with other Personal Information to determine who You are or Your e-mail address. The Sites can only access the Aggregate Information from a cookie sent by the Sites. We cannot access other cookies sent by other web sites or the information contained therein. Additionally, We cannot learn Your email address through the use of a cookie. The only way We would learn such Personal Information is if You specifically submit that Personal Information to Us, for example, by purchasing a trip through our Sites, by entering a sweepstakes or promotion, by requesting information, etc. We use cookies to track usage of the Sites and further customize Your experience when You are visiting the Sites. By tracking usage, We can best determine what features of the Site best serve the users. Without cookies, the Sites would "forget" items that may be stored, such as purchases or schedule searches, when You go to a different page. The session information used by the Sites is deleted when Your browser is closed. . We do provide third parties with Aggregate Information about our users, such as "2,000 people viewed Your ad today," as more fully set forth below. On those pages of the Sites that do not require registration, You may decline to accept cookies sent by the Sites by selecting an option on Your browser to reject cookies. However, some portions of the Sites may require registration in order to access those areas. In such case, We ask that You register and provide Us with basic information on our registration page. Cookies enable our server to know that You are a registered user; therefore, our registration system requires that You accept the cookies from the Sites. Other sites linked to the Site may also send cookies; however We do not control such activities.
4. USE OF INFORMATION:
We take your privacy very seriously. We will use the Personal Information provided by You in accordance with good commercial practice and applicable law. If you provide Us with Your E-mail address, or have done so in the past, We may upon occasion send You E-mail offers. We may use information provided by You, for example, to provide a service, to ensure proper billing, to measure consumer interest in our various services and to inform You about various products and services offered on the Sites. These offers may be based on information provided by You in Your initial transaction with Us, in surveys, from information that may indicate purchasing preferences and lifestyles, as well as information available from external sources such as census bureau data. These E-mail offers will come exclusively from Coach USA or its affiliated companies. All offers are carefully developed to ensure that they meet our standards. Our goal is to target offers to Site user who We believe will find them of value. The lists used to send You product and service offers are developed and managed under conditions designed to safeguard the security and privacy of Your Personal Information.

6. OPT-OUT/OPT-IN:
