Information Collection and Use
The primary goal of TAV in collecting information is to provide and improve our Site, TAV services and to enable users to enjoy and easily navigate the Site.
When you register with TAV and create an account, we may ask that you provide us with some personally identifiable information – information about you that may be used to contact or identify you, and information on your use or potential use of the Site and TAV services – and establish a username and password (“Personal Information”). Personal Information that we might collect includes information like your name, e-mail address, home telephone number, credit card information, home address, username, password, business name, business telephone number, and other information. Personal Information may also include her information you supply to us concerning your preferences and interest expressed when using the Site and TAV services.
TAV will not collect any Personal Information about you, unless you provide it to us voluntarily. If you do not want your Personal Information collected, please do not submit it to us. We may use your Personal Information to assist you, better understand your needs and to determine how we can improve our services and Site. We may also use that Personal Information to contact you to answer a question or respond to a comment you have submitted.
In some cases, we may collect information that is not personally identifiable. Examples of this type of information include the type of internet browser or computer operating system you use, the date and time you visited our Site, the pages you accessed, and the name of the web site from which you accessed our Site. This information is used only for internal review purposes such as tracking the total number of visitors to our Site on an aggregate, non-personally identifiable basis. This information may also be used to help analyze site traffic and improve our Site and TAV services. We may also aggregate such information to create statistical data and we may share that information with potential advertisers, partners, affiliates and others.
Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your computer. We use cookies, which may include your IP address, to better understand how you use our Site and TAV services and to help us tailor our Site and TAV services to better match your needs and interests. You have the option whether to accept a cookie by resetting your browser to notify you whenever a cookie is being stored on your web browser. You may also delete cookies manually from your hard drive. Please refer to your browser instructions or “help” screen to learn more about these functions.

We will disclose Personal Information and information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims and legal process (including but not limited to subpoenas), to protect the property and rights of TAV or a third party, to protect the safety of the public or any person, or to prevent or stop activity we may consider to be, or to pose a risk of being, any illegal, unethical or legally actionable activity.

Security
We employ administrative, physical and electronic measures designed to protect your Personal Information and information from unauthorized access. We will make any legally required disclosures for any breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of your unencrypted electronically stored “personal data” (as defined in applicable state statutes on security breach notification) to you via email or conspicuous posting through the Site in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, insofar as consistent with (i) the legitimate needs of law enforcement or (ii) any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and restore the reasonable integrity of the data system.
Links to Other Websites
Our Site may contain links to other websites. The fact that we link to a website is not an endorsement, authorization or representation of our affiliation with that third party. We do not exercise control over third party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit Personal Information from you. Other sites follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of Personal Information you submit to them. We encourage you to read the privacy policies or statements of the other websites you visit.
Children under 13
The Site is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under 13. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that their child has provided us with Personal Information without their consent, contact us and we will delete such information from our files. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with Personal Information, we will delete such information from our files.
United States only
This Site is intended for use by residents of the United States of America only. All matters relating to this Site are governed by the laws of the State of Washington in the United States.

California Privacy Rights & Notices
If the processing of your personal information is subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”), you have certain rights with respect to that information:
• Right to Know. You can request access to the Personal Information we collected about you in the last 12 months. You can also request information about the categories of Personal Information we collected, the sources of collection, the purposes for collection and sharing of this information, the categories of information we shared, and the categories of third parties with whom we shared this information. Note that we have provided much of this information above in this Agreement.
• Right to Request Deletion. You can request that we delete Personal Information under certain circumstances, subject to a number of exceptions.
• Right to Opt-Out. You can opt-out from any sharing of your Personal Information with third parties to the extent that such sharing constitutes a “sale” of that data under the CCPA. You can find more information on these practices, including how to exercise your opt-out right, in this Agreement.
• Right to Non-Discrimination. You will not be discriminated against by TAV for exercising rights set out in the CCPA.
The CCPA defines the “sale” of personal information very broadly, and some of our use of third-party cookies and tracking technologies as described in this Agreement may be considered a “sale” under that definition.
