Our Commitment to Privacy
The privacy of your personally identifiable information is important to us. As part of our commitment to the privacy of your personally identifiable information that we collect online ("Personal Information"), we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your Personal Information is collected and used at this site. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where Personal Information is requested.

Please read this policy carefully. Your use of this Web site constitutes your consent to the information collection, use, and disclosure practices described below.
Foreign Visitors
The Site is directed to persons located in the United States only, and is not intended for use by persons
located in other jurisdictions.
Active Collection of Personal Information
In general, when you visit our site you remain anonymous, but on some pages, you need to provide Personal
Information to register, order products or services, contact
UniversalPart.com, and conduct other transactions via the Web site. The types of Personal Information actively collected at the Web site may include any or all of the following, depending on your activities on the Web site:
Name, company, occupation, UniversalPart.com customer
number (if applicable), address, e-mail address, phone number, fax number,
and credit/debit card/procurement card information, username, password and other Personal Information
that you actively provide to us via the Web site.
Passive Information Collection
The Web site may "passively" collect certain kinds of information during your visit, including but not
limited to:
Cookies: "Cookies" are small text files sent from a web site to the hard drive of a user's computer
to store bits of information related to that user. Cookies can store a variety of information,
including IP addresses, navigational data, server information, data transfer times and user preferences.
We use cookies for the purpose of operating a shopper's ID to keep track of items in your shopping cart.
We also use cookies to identify who you are after you log in or register. We also use cookies to create
a more personalized experience on our Web site, for instance, by making you aware of what's new on
our Web site since your last visit. You usually can configure your Internet browser to reject cookies.
However, if you do so, you might not be able to access certain pages or use important functions on the
Web site.
UniversalPart.com also reserves the right to introduce
new passive tracking technologies and techniques related to the use of the Web site. In general,
we do not link your identity with information that we collect passively. However, in any situation where
you log in with your username and password, any or all of the information that is passively
collected about your activities on the Web site may be linked with your identity, and
therefore may become Personal Information about you.
The Purposes for Which We Use and Disclose Personal
Information
We use and disclose Personal Information obtained when you place an order or access this Web
site to process and complete that order, and to provide a more personalized shopping experience.
We maintain certain Personal Data related to financial payments, such as credit/debit card/procurement
card information, only until payment for your order is processed, unless you authorize the information
to be stored for future visits. If you later decide that you do not want us to store such information,
you may contact us at UniversalPart.com
Email and ask us to delete such information.
We also use Personal Information to communicate with you, for example, to answer the e-mail and correspondence we receive, to confirm your order, to send more information about becoming a dealer, to send renewal notices, and to notify you of important changes in the functionality of the Web site or other notices related to the handling of your Personal Information.
We may use Personal Information to make recommendations for additional products or special offers,
and to provide you with updates on new products that we believe may be of interest to you, in situations
where you expressly request such communications. If you have previously asked to receive this information,
but do not want to receive this information in the future, please contact us at
UniversalPart.com Email
We may disclose Personal Information in response to legal process or when we believe in good faith
that the law requires it, for example, in response to a court order, subpoena or a law enforcement
agency's request. We also reserve the right to disclose Personal Information to protect the security
of the Web site, to protect ourselves and our affiliated companies against liability, and/or in
connection with any sale, assignment, or other transfer of all or a part of our business.
We will not use or share the Personal Information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the
ones described above without first providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit
such unrelated uses.
Customization and Aggregate data
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our Web site and gather
information for product management and development at
UniversalPart.com. For example, we may
tell our sales and marketing staff that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our Web site,
or that Y number of products were ordered during a particular time period, but we would not
disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals. This aggregate information
may also be shared with UniversalPart.com affiliates
and independent dealers.
Our Commitment to Data Security
We maintain reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to protect Personal Information.
When you place orders or access your account information, we usually offer the use of a secure server.
The secure server software receives encrypted information through the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) of
your internet browser which encrypts the Personal Information you input before it is sent to us and
seeks to prevent anyone else from reading it as the information travels from your computer to ours.
Children's Privacy
UniversalPart.com has no intention of collecting
personal information from children at this site.

If Personal Information you have submitted through the Web site is no longer accurate,
current, or complete, and you wish to update it, please send an email to
UniversalPart.com Email.
We will usually be glad to update your information, but we reserve the right to use Personal
Information obtained previously to verify your identity, to administer our
warranty program, or to take other actions that we believe are appropriate.
Changes to the Policy
Our privacy practices, like the online medium itself, are subject to change. We reserve the
right to change this policy from time to time in our sole discretion. Please check this policy
frequently and particularly before you submit additional Personal Information via the Web site.
All revisions to this Privacy Policy will be posted on the site via a link from the home
page of the site. In the event that we change a significant or material term in this Privacy
Policy, we will notify affected visitors by revising the link on the home page to read "Newly Revised
Privacy Policy" that notifies visitors of the change.
