4. Log Files
Vitesse Catalog follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. All hosting companies do this as part of hosting services’ analytics. The information collected by log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.
5. Cookies and Web Beacons
Like any other website, Vitesse Catalog uses “cookies”. These cookies are used to store information including visitors’ preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users’ experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors’ browser type and/or other information.
6. Third-Party Privacy Policies & Data Sharing
Vitesse Catalog’s Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or websites. Thus, we are advising you to consult the respective Privacy Policies of these third-party servers for more detailed information. It may include their practices and instructions about how to opt-out of certain options.
To fulfill our services, we securely share necessary data with trusted operational partners: logistics carriers (to deliver your mechanical parts), payment processors (to securely process transactions without storing credit card details on our servers), and our technical verification partners if required for reference validation.
7. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR/CCPA)
