How we gather and store information from you
How we collect and store information depends on the page You are visiting, the activities in which You elect to participate, and the services provided. For example, You may be asked to provide personal information such as your first and last name, email address and/or telephone number when You register for access to certain portions of the Site or request certain features, (such as Our newsletter).
We also collect information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to You. For example, We may log the name of your Internet Service Provider or your IP address, or use information available through the Internet, cookie technology, other forms of technology to hold information from your visit. Among other things, these technologies may control the number of times You encounter a particular advertisement while visiting the Sites, or be used to Our advantage to market products and services on behalf of Us or Our Advertisers.
As we adopt additional technology, We may also gather additional types and categories of information about You and Your use of the Site, its Programs or Products, Your use of the Internet, and/or Your implied topics of interest, usage, or research, and do this through other means.
What we do with the information we collect
We respect Your privacy and do not sell Your personally identifiable information with anyone outside of Our organization and any subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, and other entities with whom We may have an ongoing business relationship. Additionally, real time transmission of the information may occur to affect, enable, or enhance other programs and services.
Aggregate Information (information that does not personally identify You) may be used in many ways. For example, We may combine information about Your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance the Sites and the services we offer (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive).
Aggregate Information may occasionally be shared with Gig Inspector’s licensees, subsidiaries, Affiliates, advertisers, and/or business partners. Again, this information does not include any Personally Identifiable Information about You or information that would allow anyone to identify You individually. Additionally, periodic transmission of the aggregate information may occur to affect, enable, or enhance other programs and services.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected by and/or retained on the Sites, to communicate with You about Your registration and customization preferences; Our Terms of Use (aka License/Terms and Conditions (of Use)/Terms of Service), this Privacy Policy, or any other legal documents contained on the Sites or any other legal documents which pertain to Your participation; services and products offered, now or in the future, by Gig Inspector; or any other topics We think you might find of interest. Any such communication may be in the form of email, or any other means suitable to the type of communication, including any new information delivery technologies that might become available.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by and/or retained on the Sites, may also be used for other purposes, including administration of the Site, troubleshooting, and other communications with You.
Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of the Sites (our Web hosting service for example), in general, may access such information. We will use Your information only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to time, as We continue to develop Our business, We may sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, Your user information may be among the transferred assets.
We may also disclose Your information in response to a court order, at other times when We believe We are reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with the collection of amounts You may owe to Us, and/or to law enforcement authorities whenever We deem it appropriate or necessary. Please note We may not provide You with notice prior to, or after, disclosure in such cases.
Advertisements and Communications From Partners
Occasionally Gig Inspector is approached by companies and professional associations seeking to advertise to Our Members, Participants, Purchasers, and Affiliates, about products or services that may be of interest to them.
In such cases, We would provide You with this information directly, rather than provide Your Personally Identifiable Information to the outside companies and professional associations. We may initiate the communication of any information or advertising for Our direct or indirect financial gain and it is done so without any compensation due to You or any other recipient of the information.
Affiliates Sites, Linked Sites, and Advertisements
We participate in affiliate programs for various products and services. That means that we may be compensated when we refer you to the products and services of our partners.
Our affiliates include, but are not limited to: Uber, Instacart, Shipt, HyreCar.
We expect Our members, partners, advertisers, and Affiliates to respect Your Privacy and the privacy of Our other users.

Other features available on the Site may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather information.

Such activities are beyond the control of Gig Inspector and this Policy.
