At Enterprise Holdings, Inc., through our subsidiaries operating the Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car brands as well as Truck Rental, Car Sales, RideShare, CarShare and Car Club, and at Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc., (collectively, " Enterprise Holdings", "we", "our" or "us"), we respect your privacy. We implemented this privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") to demonstrate our commitment to the protection of your personal information.

We explain below how we use and protect the personal information we may gather from and about our customers by means of our websites, mobile applications, online booking widgets (i.e. online booking applications run by our third-party partners such as hotel providers, airlines, etc), our corporate, rental, and sales locations, and from third-party sources. By using our websites or mobile applications, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information, as described in this Privacy Policy.

The nature of the business and operations require us to share your reservation and booking information with our franchisees or licensees, ("Licensees"). For these transactions, the Licensee is an independent data controller or equivalent under applicable law and may maintain its own privacy policy in respect of the rental data that you provide to the Licensee. You are encouraged to check the privacy policy of the Licensee that is applicable to your transaction.

To identify who is the data controller or equivalent under applicable law in respect of your personal data, please see Data Controllers and Contact Information by Country.

You will be notified via email or prominent notice on our websites for thirty (30) days of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.

We may disclose your personal information to third-party service providers (such as a payment processor to bill you for goods or services, an email provider to send email communications to you on our behalf, or the provider of our live chat feature in order to offer you customer service). These service providers may be located in a country different from your country of residence, such as the United States or a European Union member country. These service providers are contractually required to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information. However, your information may be accessible to authorities in accordance with applicable laws.

We may also share aggregated or de-identified information about our customers with our advertising and marketing partners, and third-party media properties, including social media sites to allow them to send targeted advertising messages on our behalf.
