Marketplace Privacy Policy

08/30/2020

The Protective Marketplace (the “Marketplace”) is a one-stop solution for discovering, purchasing and accessing third-party solutions and applications for fleets. The purpose of this privacy policy is to explain to our customers and their employees (collectively, “you”) what data we collect from you, how that information is used, and what measures we take to protect that data.

In order to provide you with 3rd- party solutions and applications and other services through this Marketplace we work with – and share your information with – different 3rd-party partners, including Roadz, which is our “Marketplace Platform Provider”, and “Vendors,” which refers to the third-party solution providers whose solutions and applications are available for you to purchase and use through the Marketplace (collectively “we” or “us”).

1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
