you with the highest quality of products, services and support. We display this
Privacy Statement to make you aware of the information practices for Trimble websites,
including what type of information is gathered and tracked, how the
information is used, and with whom the information is shared. We may update our
Privacy Statement from time to time to stay current with changes in our business
and to better serve you. We encourage you to visit this page frequently to
inform yourself of any changes.

These web sites are operated by Trimble Inc. from its facilities
in the United States. Some of our subsidiaries or programs have their own,
possibly different, policies. We encourage you to read this privacy policy and
those of all web sites you visit.
Consent to Use and Transfer Personal Data
Please note that if you submit personal data through the Trimble websites,
you will send it to us (Trimble Inc.), in the United States. We
will collect, process and transfer your personal data in accordance with this
Data Privacy Statement but possibly not in accordance with the laws of the
jurisdiction in which you reside. By submitting your personal data through a
Trimble web site you consent to Trimble's collection, use, storage and transfer
of your personal data to our company databases and other repositories, wherever
located, for the purposes for which it is submitted and in accordance with the
policies set forth in this Privacy Statement.
Types of Data Collected Online
You can browse most of our web sites without entering any personal
information. Only general, non-personally identifiable information that Trimble
logs from all site visits, such as Internet service provider, operating
system/browser type, and pages accessed, will be collected in those instances.
This means that a user's session will be tracked, but the user will not be
individually identified.
There are times, however, when we or our business partners (such as our
external service providers identified below) may need information from you.
For example, you may choose to give us personal information when you:
- Access or register for access on some of our websites, for example, http://www.gpspathfinderexpress.com or http://learn.trimble.com.
- Purchase products or services
- Register as a user of Trimble products
- Make requests for materials, customer and other services, and product
support, repairs and upgrades
- Subscribe to newsletters and online services
- Enter Trimble-sponsored contests, sweepstakes and other promotions
- Create a user profile to receive future information, special offers and
communications.
- Apply to be considered for employment in connection with a job opening at
Trimble.
- Register for a Trimble Dimensions User Conference
At such times you may be asked to provide contact and billing information
(e.g., your name, address, telephone number, email address, credit card number
and expiration date), as well as information about the product or service
purchased (e.g., product I.D., serial number, customer number, product version).
Demographic or other personal information may also be requested, however,
volunteering such information is optional. By providing the information to
Trimble you consent to our transfer of this information to our company databases
and other repositories, wherever located.
Use of Data
Trimble uses personal information collected on its websites for the purposes
for which it is requested or as necessary or permissible under applicable law (e.g., in
some jurisdictions we may have to keep invoices under tax laws). We also may
use the information you provide to notify you later about new developments with
respect to the products and services you have purchased or to inform you about
new products, special offers and services offered by Trimble, its subsidiaries
and affiliates ("Trimble Companies") or its business partners. It is important
to note that you may opt out of receiving further information from Trimble, as
discussed in detail below. We use non-personal information to analyze sales
trend data as it relates to geography, time and demographics.
In connection with a job application or inquiry advertised on a Trimble Website,
you may provide us with information about yourself, such as a resume or
curriculum vitae. We may use this information throughout Trimble and the
Trimble Companies for the purpose of employment consideration or your inquiry.
Except where you tell us not to, we will keep the information for future
consideration.
Specific uses of personal information that vary from this Privacy Policy
(if any) may be found in the Terms of Use or Terms of Service or
privacy policies applicable to a particular service, contest or
promotion. To the extent that you are notified of potential uses of your
personal information that are different from those described in this
Privacy Policy during your service agreement with us or enrollment in a
particular contest or promotion, the uses of information set forth in
that agreement, contest or promotion will supersede this Privacy Policy.
Please review carefully the Terms of Use, Terms of Service and privacy
policies applicable to the service(s) that you have purchased or the
contests or promotions for which you sign-up or in which you
participate.
