Greyhound Lines, Inc. may share non-Personal Information, (provided that Greyhound Lines, Inc. is aware of no restrictions of Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s use, if any), with third parties or Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s affiliates (“Greyhound Lines, Inc. Affiliates”) for any purpose not prohibited by applicable law.  Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s sharing of Personal Information is, however, subject to the following:

In addition, Greyhound Lines, Inc. may share your Personal Information (as well as your non-Personal Information), in connection with or during negotiations of any proposed or actual financing of our business, or merger, purchase, sale, joint venture, or any other type of acquisition or business combination of all or any portion of Greyhound Lines, Inc. assets, or transfer of all or a portion of Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s business to another company, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding (“Corporate Transactions”).

The materials you provide to Greyhound Lines, Inc. (including feedback and suggestions) or post, upload, input or submit to any Greyhound Lines, Inc.

We encourage you to exercise caution when making decisions about what you disclose in such public areas.

Safeguards to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information

Greyhound Lines, Inc. takes reasonable measures to protect Personal Information collected on the Service from loss, theft, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, transmission via the Internet and online digital storage are not completely secure and Greyhound Lines, Inc. does not guarantee the security of your information collected through the Service.

Children's Privacy

We believe that protecting the privacy of children is very important.  Our Services are not intended for individuals under the age of 18. In accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), we do not knowingly collect or store any personal information, via the Service, from children under the age of 13. If we discover we have received any personal information from a child under the age of 13 via the Service in a manner not permitted by COPPA, we will delete such data to the extent required by COPPA. If you believe that we have collected any information from anyone under the age of 13, please contact us at the contact points specified below.

EEOC / Affirmative Action Reporting

In conjunction with laws and regulations enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”), the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (“OFCCP”) and similar state and local regulatory agencies, we may ask you to provide us with self-identifying information (such as veteran status, gender and ethnicity). Providing such self-identifying information is voluntary, but if you do provide us with such information, we may submit that information, to the EEOC, the OFCCP and similar state and local regulatory agencies or otherwise use or disclose it for business-related purposes, including, without limitation, responding to information requests, fulfilling regulatory reporting requirements and defending against employment related complaints.

Third-Party Content, Third-Party Services, Social Features, Advertising and Analytics

The Service may include hyperlinks to, or include on or in connection with websites, locations, platforms, applications or services operated by third parties (“Third-Party Service(s)”). These Third-Party Services may use their own cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technology to independently collect information about you and may solicit Personal Information from you.

Certain functionalities on the Service permit interactions that you initiate between the Service and certain Third-Party Services, such as third-party social networks (“Social Features”). Examples of Social Features include: enabling you to send content such as contacts and photos between the Service and a Third-Party Service; “liking” or “sharing” Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s content; logging in to the Service using your Third-Party Service account (e.g., using Facebook Connect to sign-in to the Service); and to otherwise connect the Service to a Third-Party Service (e.g., to pull or push information to or from the Service).  If you use Social Features, and potentially other Third-Party Services, information you post or provide access to may be publicly displayed on the Service or by the Third-Party Service that you use. Also, both Greyhound Lines, Inc. and the third party may have access to certain information about you and your use of the Service and any Third-Party Service.

Greyhound Lines, Inc. may engage and work with service providers and other third parties to serve advertisements on the Service and/or on third-party services. Some of these ads may be tailored to your interest based on your browsing of the Service and elsewhere on the Internet, which may include use of precise location and/or cross-device data, sometimes referred to as “interest-based advertising” and “online behavioral advertising” (“Interest-based Advertising”), which may include sending you an ad on a third-party service after you have left the Service (i.e., “retargeting”). First may also use Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics or other service providers for analytics services.  These analytics services may use cookies and other tracking technologies to help Greyhound Lines, Inc. analyze Service users and how they use the Service.  Information generated by these services (e.g., your IP address and other usage information) may be transmitted to and stored by these service providers on servers in the U.S. (or elsewhere) and these service providers may use this information for purposes such as evaluating your use of the Service, compiling statistic reports on the Service’s activity, and providing other services relating to Service activity and other Internet usage.

Greyhound Lines, Inc. is not responsible for, and makes no representations regarding, the policies or business practices of any third parties, including, without limitation, analytics service providers and Third-Party Services associated with the Service, and encourages you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use.

Choices: Tracking and Communications options

You can opt out of receiving certain promotional communications (emails or text messaging) from Greyhound Lines, Inc. at any time by (i) for promotional e-mails, following the instructions provided in emails to click on the unsubscribe link, or if available by changing your communication preferences by logging onto your account; and (ii) for text messages, following the instructions provided in text messages from Greyhound Lines, Inc. to text the word, “STOP”. Please note that your opt-out is limited to the e-mail address or phone number used and will not affect subsequent subscriptions.  If you opt-out of only certain communications, other subscription communications may continue.  Even if you opt out of receiving promotional communications, Greyhound Lines, Inc. may, subject to applicable law, continue to send you non-promotional communications, such as those about your account, transactions, servicing, or Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s ongoing business relations.

Regular cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Browsers offer different functionalities and options, so you may need to set them separately.  Also, tools from commercial browsers may not be effective with regard to Flash cookies (also known as locally shared objects), HTML5 cookies, or other Tracking Technologies.  For information on disabling Flash cookies, go to Adobe’s website http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/disable-third-party-local-shared.html. Please be aware that if you disable or remove these technologies, some parts of the Service may not work and that when you revisit the Service your ability to limit browser-based tracking technologies is subject to your browser settings and limitations.

Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit.  Note, however, there is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context.  Like many online services, Greyhound Lines, Inc. currently does not alter our practices when we receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser.

You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Adobe Analytics by going to http://www.adobe.com/privacy/opt-out.html under the section labeled “Tell our customers not to measure your use of their web sites or tailor their online ads for you.”

You may choose whether to receive some Interest-based Advertising by submitting opt-outs. Some of the advertisers and service providers that perform advertising-related services for us and third parties may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices regarding Interest-based Advertising, including use of cross-device data for serving ads, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/, and http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices for information on the DAA’s opt-out program specifically for mobile apps (including use of precise location for third party ads). Some of these companies may also be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your opt-out options for their members, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Please be aware that, even if you are able to opt out of certain kinds of Interest-based Advertising, you may continue to receive other types of ads. Opting out only means that those selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based Advertising to you but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks). Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different device or web browser or use a non-browser-based method of access (e.g., mobile app), your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may not, or may no longer, be effective.  Greyhound Lines, Inc. supports the ad industry’s 2009 Self-regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising and expects that ad networks Greyhound Lines, Inc. directly engages to serve you Interest-based Advertising will do so as well, though Greyhound Lines, Inc. cannot guaranty their compliance. Greyhound Lines, Inc. is not responsible for effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.

Greyhound Lines, Inc. may provide web pages or other mechanisms allowing you to delete, correct, or update some of your information, and potentially certain other information about you (e.g., profile and account information). Greyhound Lines, Inc. will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s then-active databases as soon as practicable, but it is not always possible to completely change, remove or delete all of your information or public postings from Greyhound Lines, Inc.’s databases and residual and/or cached data may remain archived thereafter.  Further, we reserve the right to retain data (a) as required by applicable law; and (b) for so long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the data is retained except to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
