Last revised - June 29, 2020

This Privacy Policy only applies to use of, transactions made, Personal Information and data gathered on websites and mobile apps that are owned and/or operated by, or by authorized third parties on behalf of, SP Plus Corporation (each a "Site", and collectively the "Sites"), or by any of the other means described in this Privacy Policy. If you have arrived at this Privacy Policy by "clicking" on an authorized link from a Site, then this Privacy Policy applies to such Site.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any website owned and/or operated by or on behalf of any third party even if we provide a link to such website on one of our Sites.

When we refer to "we," "us," or "our," we mean SP Plus Corporation, a Delaware corporation, or the specific division, subsidiary, or affiliate that operates the Site, provides its content, or processes information received through it, each as appropriate and applicable.

When we refer to "you" or "your," we mean the person accessing the Site. If the person accessing the Site acts on behalf of, or for the purposes of, another person, including a business or other organization, "you" or "your" also means that other person, including a business organization.

We created this Privacy Policy to help you understand how we collect Personal Information, what information we collect, how we use it, the steps we take to safeguard it, and the choices you have regarding how it may be used and disclosed. Please note that we do not necessarily collect all of the Personal Information described in this Privacy Policy for all users or engage in all of the means of collecting or using Personal Information we describe. No description of any type of information, means of collecting Personal Information, or use of information will require us to collect any particular Personal Information, make any particular use of any Personal Information, or offer any particular functionality.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any other website or offline point of contact between us and you. This Privacy Policy does not cover information we collect by means other than the Sites. If you have any questions about how we use information collected by means other than the Sites, you should inquire at or before the time you give such information to us.

Please review this Privacy Policy periodically as we may update it from time to time. Each time you visit the Sites or provide us with Personal Information, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy at that time.

Note that this Privacy Policy contains several important exceptions. Please read the entire Privacy Policy to be sure that you understand these exceptions.

We may also supplement your IP address with anonymous Site traffic information that's collected automatically when you visit the Site(s), plus with information acquired from our joint marketing partners, from third parties, and from our affiliated companies.

Cookies

We may use "cookies" in connection with operation of the Sites. A cookie is a piece of data stored on the computer that runs an Internet browser and is commonly used to store information about a consumer's online activities, including information such as the content or advertisements that a consumer views or the pages a consumer visits within a particular website. It can contain information about you, your computer, your browser, your session, the websites you visit, and other information about you or others who use, or have used, the computer or browser you use to access the Internet. Cookies are used for record-keeping purposes: the stored information can be retrieved by our website server when you return to the Site(s). This allows us to personalize or regulate the use of the Sites, and also permits us to automate the access and data-entry functions of the Sites (e.g., login information), to store online ordering information for purchases you may make while visiting the Site(s), and to tailor the appearance or presentation of the Site(s) to your preferences or interests. The cookies we use, if any, are not linked to any Personal Information while using the Sites unless: (i) you have given us permission to link such Personal Information to one or more cookies or (ii) you login or register with the Site. You give us that permission any time you register on the Sites or place an order through the Sites.

We use cookies as a convenience feature to save you time, to understand how the Sites are used, and to improve the content and offerings on the Sites. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at the Site(s) or recall your specific information on subsequent visits (e.g. to recognize you by name when you return to the Site(s)). We also may use cookies to offer you products, programs or services and targeted advertising. You can opt to have your browser reject cookies. Most or all browsers permit you to disable or reject cookies. You can do this by setting the preferences in the browser. Use the "help" feature of your browser to obtain more information about refusing cookies. If you set the browser you use to reject cookies, you may not be able to access the Sites, use the full functionality of the Sites, or it may take additional time to utilize such functionality. If you opt to reject cookies, you may need to sign in with us each time you visit the Site(s).

Companies that advertise on the Sites (and their agents), one or more of the organizations with which we do business, or to which we provide links from the Sites, might use their own cookies. We have no control over such organizations' uses of cookies and users should review the privacy policies of such organizations to determine the uses such organizations make of cookies. This Privacy Policy does not cover how these companies use their cookies.

Log Files

We or our hosting provider may collect traffic information from visitors for statistical analysis and Site improvement.

Information Other Websites Collect From You

The Sites may contain links to other websites operated by other parties whose practices may be different than ours. When you click on these links and visit these other websites, you need to be aware that we do not control these other websites or these other websites' business practices, and that this Privacy Policy does not apply to these other websites.

You should check the other websites' privacy notices since we have no control over information that is submitted to or collected by them.

Clickstream Data

As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each website you visit. This information, sometimes referred to as "clickstream data," can be collected and stored by a website's server. Clickstream data can tell us the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to the Site(s). We may use clickstream data as a form of non-personally identifiable information to anonymously determine how much time visitors spend on each page of the Site(s), how visitors navigate throughout the Site(s) and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors.

Supplementation of Information

We may supplement the Personal Information we receive from you with other information we receive from third party sources or clearinghouses. Thus, Personal Information we obtain through the Sites may be intermingled with and used in conjunction with information obtained through sources other than the Sites, including both offline and online sources.

Our Security Precautions; Geographic Location of Information

No website is 100% secure. You can usually tell whether encryption is being used by noting the "locked" or other status indicator on the browser you are using. If the browser you are using does not indicate that the session is secure (e.g. by displaying a lock, a key or similar icon), you should assume that the connection is not secure and that third parties will receive the information shared by you and us during that part of the session.

Your Personal Information may be transferred to and maintained on computer networks which may be located outside of the state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction in which you reside, and the country or jurisdiction in which these computer networks are located may not have privacy laws as protective as the laws in your country or jurisdiction.
