Privacy Policy
BFGoodrich is committed to maintaining the privacy of our customers or persons visiting our Site. This page sets out our policy on how we manage “personal information”. This policy is intended to help you understand how we manage the personal information that we collect, hold, use and disclose, how you can seek access to and correction of that information and, if necessary, how you can make a complaint on our handling of that information.
A. What types of personal information do we collect and hold?
You may be asked for personal information if you want to take advantage of specific services we offer such as, but not limited to, e-mail enquiries (contact us), consumer or tyre reviews, survey, social sharing features (such as the Facebook "Like" button or other tools) or specific promotions.
This Site does not automatically capture or store personal information, other than logging the users IP address and session info such as the duration of the visit and the type of browser used. This is recognised by the web server and is only used for system administration and to provide statistics which we use to evaluate use of the Site.
Parts of our Site use cookies to store information on your computer to enhance your experience of our site and to store preferences and session information. Your experience of sections of this site may be degraded if you do not enable cookies to be stored on your computer.
What are Cookies?
A cookie is a small file saved on a user’s computer to help store preferences and other information that's used on webpages that they visit. Cookies can save a user’s settings on certain websites and can sometimes be used to track how visitors get to and interact with websites. It's important to clarify that cookies do not collect any personal data stored on your hard drive or computer.
How does BFGoodrich use Cookies?
BFGoodrich works with carefully selected & monitored partners who help us use cookies to provide site analytics. Analytics help us to understand how visitors are interacting with the site in order to optimise the site to enhance visitor's experience. Also, some of these partners may also set cookies during your visit to support customisation of adverts that you may see elsewhere on the internet.
How to delete Cookies:
By using our Site, you agree to the use of cookies and other technologies as set out in this policy. You are free to block our cookies & adjust your browser settings accordingly.
B. Holding and protecting your personal information
Personal information submitted by you may be stored in physical or electronic form either on our own systems or the systems of our service providers. The personal information is protected using appropriate safeguards. We also require our service providers to follow strict security standards and bind them with obligations of confidentiality when holding and processing any personal information.
C. Purposes for which we may collect, use and disclose your personal information
You may be asked for personal information if you want to take advantage of specific services we offer such as, but not limited to, e-mail enquiries (contact us), consumer or tyre reviews, survey, social sharing features (such as the Facebook "Like" button or other tools) or specific promotions. In each case we will only use the personal information you provide to deliver the services you have told us you wish to take part in. You will be given an opportunity to opt out of further contact if you wish. If you would prefer that we not collect any personally identifiable information from you, please do not provide us with any such information.
We may share your personal data with third party suppliers or service providers. These suppliers and service providers are contractually obligated to keep your personal data confidential and secure, and they are required to use your personal data only for the needs of the services that were entrusted to them.
D. Disclosure of personal information to third parties
We receive services from other BFGoodrich Group companies and external service providers, some of which may be located outside your country of residence (see the additional section below titled "Overseas Disclosures"), and your information may be provided to them for this purpose.
Third parties to whom we disclose your personal information may include:
- Related BFGoodrich Group companies outside your country of residence;
- Persons to whom disclosure of your personal information is necessary in order for us to provide or manage any services or transactions requested by you including:
Service providers, such as mail services, delivery agencies; service and support agencies; customer service agents - Service providers to whom we subcontract any tasks under our agreements (if any) with you

E. Overseas Disclosures
As a result of the management structure some recipients of personal information within BFGoodrich may not be located in the country of your residence. While it is not reasonably practicable to list all of the countries to which your information may be transmitted from time to time but such countries are likely to be those where BFGoodrich has offices globally. A list of those countries is available through the BFGoodrich website at www.bfgoodrich.com. Such organisations may in turn be required to disclose information we share with them under a foreign law.
When we do share information as above, we remain responsible for that disclosure and will ensure that your personal information is handled according to the requirements of law.

You are entitled to access personal information we hold by contacting our Privacy Officer (contact details below). Our endeavour will be to respond within 30 days of such a request.

Correction of information is provided free of charge.
