Privacy Statement

I hate legal jargon and double-talk.  This statement is as straight forward as I can make it.  By using the AGCO Automotive website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.

Collection of your Personal Information

AGCO Automotive does NOT collect personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, without your permission.

We may collect anonymous  information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected as with most websites. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This information is used by AGCO Automotive for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the AGCO Automotive Web site.  It is NOT ever given out, sold or exchanged with others.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through AGCO Automotive public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: AGCO Automotive does not read any of your private online communications.

AGCO Automotive encourages you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose to link to from AGCO Automotive so that you can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your information. AGCO Automotive is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on Web sites outside of the AGCO Automotive and AGCO Automotive family of Web sites.

Use of your Personal Information

AGCO Automotive may collect and use your personal information to operate the AGCO Automotive Web site and deliver the services you have requested, for example answers to questions and newsletters.

AGCO Automotive does NOT sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. 

AGCO Automotive does NOT use, collect or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations.

AGCO Automotive keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers visit within AGCO Automotive, in order to determine what AGCO Automotive services are the most popular.  We do NOT distribute this information.

AGCO Automotive Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on AGCO Automotive or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of AGCO Automotive; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of AGCO Automotive, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The AGCO Automotive Web site uses "cookies" only to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize AGCO Automotive pages, or register with AGCO Automotive site or services, a cookie helps AGCO Automotive to recall your specific information on subsequent visits so you do not have to re-enter your user name and password. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same AGCO Automotive Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the AGCO Automotive features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the AGCO Automotive services or Web sites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

AGCO Automotive secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. AGCO Automotive secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

AGCO Automotive will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. AGCO Automotive encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how AGCO Automotive is protecting your information.

AGCO Automotive welcomes your comments regarding this Statement of Privacy. If you believe that AGCO Automotive has not adhered to this Statement, please contact AGCO Automotive. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly determine and remedy the problem.
