PRIVACY POLICY

The Effective Date of this Privacy Policy is March 10, 2020.

This Privacy Policy applies to the Chargefon web sites that post this policy (each a “Site”), and to information 
collected through Chargefon stations and Chargefon mobile applications, including any available interactive 
features, downloads, applications, widgets or other outlets made available through a Chargefon web site or that 
interact with a mobile Chargefon web site, and that post or include a link to this Privacy Policy, regardless of 
whether accessed via computer, mobile device or otherwise (collectively, the “Chargefon Platforms”). This 
Privacy Policy only covers information collected on the Chargefon Platforms owned and controlled by 
Chargefon, Corp and does not cover any information collected at any other web site (unless specifically stated). 
This Privacy Policy explains Chargefon’ information collection practices, such as the types of information 
Chargefon collects and how we may use that information. This Private Policy is hereby incorporated in 
Chargefon’ Terms of Use and all limitations, allowances, or rights therein will equally apply to the terms herein.

CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY POLICY

Chargefon reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time without notice to you. Any 
changes will be effective immediately upon the posting of the revised Privacy Policy.

THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

Information You Provide Us

We may ask you to provide personal information, which information identifies you as a specific 
individual, such as your name, phone number, e-mail address or payment information (collectively, 
“Personal Information”), and other information about you, such as demographic information (for 
example, your gender, age or similar information). Providing this information is completely voluntary, 
but a failure to provide the information might restrict use of the Chargefon Platform, including without 
limitation, the products or batteries. 

Information We Collect Automatically

We and our third-party service providers may use a variety of technologies that automatically or 
passively collect certain information whenever you visit or interact with us or our content found 
elsewhere on the internet (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include the browser and 
operating system you are using, the URL or advertisement that referred you to our Site or content, all of
the areas within our Site that you visit, including items that you browse, the time of day, and the 
preceding page viewed, among other information. We may use Usage Information for a variety of 
purposes, including to enhance or otherwise improve the Site services, and Chargefon Platforms. In 
addition, we may automatically collect your IP address or other unique identifier (“Device Identifier”) 
for any computer, mobile phone or other device (any, a “Device”) you may use to access our Site or 
mobile application. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device used 
to access our Site or mobile application, and our servers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. 

When you download and use our mobile application, we also collect information about your mobile 
device, including the hardware model, operating system and version, mobile network information, time
zone and location information. Please note that you have the ability to stop Chargefon collection of 
location information at any time by changing the settings on your Device or by following the standard 
uninstall process and removing our mobile application from your Device. Usage Information is 
generally non-identifying, but if Chargefon associates it with you as a specific and identifiable person, 
Chargefon treats it as Personal Information. 

Chargefon may use a variety of methods to collect Usage Information, which may include without 
limitation: cookies; web beacons; and embedded scripts. 

We may also record information regarding the use of our Stations. This information is typically non-
identifying, but if it is identifiable to you as a specific person, we will treat it as Personal Information 
under this Privacy Policy. 

Information Third Parties Provide About You and Social Media Interactions

Chargefon may receive information about you from third parties. For example, if you are on another 
web site and you agree to receive information from Chargefon, that web site will forward your contact 
and other information to us so that we may contact you as requested. You may also choose to 
participate in a third party application or feature (such as one of our Facebook,  applications or a 
similar application or feature on a third party web site) through which you post content or allow us to 
collect (or the third party to share) information about you, including Personal Information. The third 
party may allow you to remove the application or feature, in which case we will no longer collect 
information about you through the application or feature, but we may retain the information previously 
collected. In addition, we may receive information about you if other users of a third party web site 
give us access to their profiles and you are one of their “connections” or information about you is 
otherwise accessible through your “connections” web page, profile page, or similar page on a social 
networking or other third party web site, application or interactive service. 

Use of Information Collected Through the Platforms

Chargefon may use information collected through the Chargefon Platforms, including your Personal 
Information, to: (1) allow you to participate in features we offer or to provide related customer service, 
including, without limitation, to respond to your questions, complaints or comments; (2) process a 
rental, purchase, or other transaction you initiate; (3) investigate and prevent fraudulent transactions 
and other illegal activities; (4) process your registration, including verifying your e-mail address is 
active and valid; (5) improve the Chargefon Platforms or our services and for internal business 
purposes; (6) contact you with regard to your use of the Chargefon Platforms and, in our discretion, 
changes to the Chargefon Platforms policies; and (7) for purposes disclosed at the time you provide 
your Personal Information or otherwise with your consent.

HOW AND WHEN WE DISCLOSE INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES

Chargefon may share non-personally identifiable information, such as aggregated user statistics or a 
Chargefon identification or transaction number, with third parties. We may share the information we 

have collected about you, including Personal Information, as disclosed at the time you provide your

You may be presented with an opportunity to receive information and/or marketing offers from one or

Information will be disclosed to that third party (or parties) and will be subject to the privacy policy 
and practices of that third party. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of third 
parties and, therefore, you should review the privacy policies and practices of third parties prior to 
agreeing to share your information. If you later decide that you no longer want to receive 
communications from a third party, you will need to contact that third party directly. If you are a 
California resident, please see "Your California Privacy Rights" for more information.

Third Parties Providing Services on Our Behalf
