a. Collection of Personally Identifiable Information. On certain areas of this website, CCC collects personally identifiable information about you, such as your name and credit card information. CCC collects this information only when you voluntarily provide such information. CCC collects this type of information from you when you complete a payment online.
b. Use of Personally Identifiable Information. CCC will not sell or otherwise transfer or disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties who are not affiliated with CCC without your prior consent, unless as required by law. Examples include court-ordered subpoenas, search warrants, court orders, or as required by exigent circumstances. We may use your personally identifiable information to tailor your experience on CCC's website, and to compile and display content and information that we think may interest you and/or to display content according to such preferences.
CCC may use your profile information - which does not include personally identifiable information - on an aggregate basis to provide our editors with information that is useful in developing potential new features and content for CCC's website, and to provide sponsors and others with aggregate information about users of CCC's website and usage patterns on the website. CCC also reserves the right to perform statistical analysis of user behavior on an aggregate basis in order to measure interest in and use of the various areas of CCC's website and to inform sponsors of such information. Again, this use of your profile information on an aggregate basis does not include the disclosure of personally identifiable information.
CCC's website contains portals to third party sites that offer services through our website. In this event, CCC is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.

If you decide to cancel a transaction before the transaction is complete, you can navigate away from the payment page or exit CCC's website. However, after a transaction has been processed and is complete, you will be unable to access any information provided during the payment process.
