How We Collect Information The public section of the website is primarily an information website that tells you about our company and our services. You do not need to provide any personal information if you simply want to browse the public section of our website and learn about what we have to offer. When we ask for your personal information, it is so that we can provide a service to you and to communicate with you about our services. For example, if you want to hire the services of Leafspring Transport, we will ask for your name, address and e-mail address, and we will provide that information to someone in our customer relations department who will follow up with you about our services. When you visit the website, we may record information that your web browser routinely shares with websites. This information may include your browser type, browser language, Internet Protocol address, the date and time of your visit, and other information related to your visit. This information is collected on an anonymous basis, and we do not try to connect it with your personal information. Users of our website are notified if their information is being collected by any outside parties, either by this privacy policy or by some other means. For example, we may use an intermediary software service provider to transmit information from one area of our business to another. We do this to ensure that our users can make an informed choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require an outside party. 4. What We Do with the Information We Collect We will generally use the information that we collect to (i) provide requested services; (ii) monitor and analyze visitor activity on our website; (iii) improve the features and operation of our website; (iv) develop a knowledge base regarding our website visitors and their preferences; (v) and improve our services. In order for us to operate our website, we may need to share information with our business partners. For example, we may use contractors to help provide on-line services to help us collect, analyze and evaluate our information, or to provide other support services for the website. Often, the information that we share will be aggregate data that is anonymous in nature. If we provide any individually identifiable information to others, unless you have agreed otherwise, it will be on terms that prohibit our business partners from making any independent commercial use of the information and from sharing the data with third parties or otherwise making it publicly available. The website may include tools that you may find helpful. To use these tools, you may need to provide information about you and your business. The website will use your information to provide the service that the tool offers. Except as otherwise disclosed in this privacy notice, we will not use the information from these tools for any other purpose without your permission. We may elect to disclose personal information without prior notice in response to law enforcement activity or other governmental request; to respond to subpoenas, court orders or administrative agency requests for information; to enforce our contract or property rights; to protect ourselves or others; or when required or otherwise permitted by law. For example, we may share information to reduce the risk of fraud or if someone uses or attempts to use our site for illegal reasons. Information we collect may also be transferred in connection with any sale or merger of the company or any division or business line of the company to which the information relates.

Testimonials We post video customer testimonials on our website which may contain personally identifiable information such as the customer's name. We obtain the customer's consent prior to posting the testimonial to post their name along with their testimonial. 7. Use of Cookies As is commonly done on websites, we may use cookies and similar technology to keep track of visitors of the website and the services they have elected.
