Arity Privacy Statement

Effective date: November 1, 2024

 

At Arity, we understand your privacy is a top priority. This Privacy Statement describes the privacy practices of Arity, LLC and Arity 875, LLC (“Arity”, “we” or “us”). While this Privacy Statement addresses data privacy requirements from across the globe, some parts of this Privacy Statement apply to certain regions, states, or countries only. We urge all visitors to our site to read this Privacy Statement in its entirety.

About Arity

Arity is a technology company focused on making transportation smarter, safer, and more useful for everyone. Arity transforms large amounts of data into actionable insights to help better predict risk and make smarter decisions in real time. Arity provides services directly to consumers and indirectly through companies such as mobile application providers and insurance companies to capture and understand driving behavior. Arity also provides some products only to business customers, referred to as business clients, for their own purposes. Arity designs its products and services with privacy and data protection in mind.

​

Arity works with many different business clients such as mobile application providers, website publishers, vehicle manufacturers, and insurance companies. When working with these business clients, Arity may collect information directly from consumers or the business client may collect the information and share it with Arity.

​

Personal information we collect

Arity collects both personal and non-personal information about you. Personal information (also referred to as personal data in some jurisdictions) is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked (directly or indirectly) with you. In contrast, non-personal information does not and cannot reveal an individual’s identity such as information that has been deidentified or aggregated.

​

Please note that the type and amount of personal information collected from or about you will differ based on the products, features, and services you use, your relationship with Arity, and the country in which the products, features and services are provided. In certain circumstances, Arity may collect personal information about you in its role as a service provider on behalf of its business clients. When Arity acts as a service provider, the collection and use of personal information is subject to the privacy policies of the business clients and not this Privacy Statement.

 

We collect the following categories of personal information:

  • Geolocation data: Includes geolocation coordinates, including latitude, longitude, and altitude, your direction of travel, Wi-Fi access points, and the time the information was recorded.

  • Personal identifiers: Includes name, alias, postal address, phone number, fax number, date of birth, partial social security number, vehicle identification number (VIN), unique device or personal identifier, online identifier – such as Mobile Ad ID, internet protocol (IP) address, and email address.

  • Personal characteristics: Age, marital status, gender, education and occupation, employment status, household income, household size, household children, community type and other demographic information.  For transparency, we collect some demographic information for research purposes including race and ethnicity.

  • Commercial and service related information: Services purchased, obtained, considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies. If Arity’s services are provided in connection with an insurance product (provided by an insurance company or employer), we may also receive the following information: Insurance policyholder demographic information and policy information, insurance claims data, motor vehicle records and consumer report data, including credit score.

  • Internet or other electronic network activity information (including mobile app information): Includes browsing history, search history, information regarding your interaction with our website, mobile apps, and advertisements we facilitate, links you use, referral pages or web pages you visit while visiting our websites, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), and cookies. It also includes mobile app and device usage information (e.g., frequency of use, application marketplace from where you downloaded the mobile app, operating system, device model and time zone) and driving behavior (e.g., phone handling, miles, speed, and if a mobile app detects a collision, information about the collision).

  • Multimedia Information: Audio, electronic, or similar information.

  • Inferences: Inferences drawn from personal information collected to create a profile reflecting preferences, characteristics, predispositions, and driving habits and behavior. For example, Arity may derive miles traveled, acceleration, deceleration, braking behavior, cornering, speed, and trip routing from information coming from your mobile device or vehicle, including location data.

  • Sensitive personal information: Some personal information we collect is defined under the law as sensitive personal information. The sensitive personal information we collect includes precise geolocation information. When engaging in market research surveys, we may also collect race and ethnicity.

​

Sources of personal information

We collect personal information about you in several ways and from several sources. Personal information is collected from the following sources:

  • Directly from consumers via our websites, emails, phone conversations, third-party mobile apps, Arity’s mobile app (Routely®) or devices installed in vehicles. For some products, Arity embeds its technology in its business clients’ mobile app, allowing Arity to collect geolocation and related driving behavior information directly from consumers.

  • From Arity business clients via their mobile app or other device or directly from the business client (not via the mobile app) in connection with services you’ve requested from the business client such as vehicle manufacturers. For example, a business client may provide Arity with information not collected from an app that would help Arity better develop its models.

  • From other parties such as our corporate affiliates, data brokers, service providers, and marketing companies.

  • Directly from consumers during or in connection with an interview, survey or similar interaction.

  • From third parties when Arity is acting as a service provider. Arity often acts as a service provider to business clients and collects and uses certain additional personal information only in connection with performing services on behalf of those business clients. The use of this information is subject to the privacy practices of those business clients and not this Privacy Statement.

Business client’s use of information

Arity shares your information with its business clients as part of your purchase, or use, of services from those business clients. Those business clients include, but are not limited to, insurance companies as well as mobile app providers who track the location of members of a defined group or who provide weather related information. If you have purchased an insurance product offered by an Arity business client, then your information may also be used by that business client to calculate insurance rates or rewards provided under the product or service. Our insurance company business clients may also use your information to update their pricing and underwriting models. All such use of your personal information by our business clients is subject to their privacy policies and not this Privacy Statement.

 

Sharing your information

For any personal information that cannot be completely aggregated or deidentified, we take steps to modify the information before sharing to remove information such as name, account number, address, or unique vehicle identifiers when possible. Before sharing such deidentified or modified information with unaffiliated third parties, Arity contractually prohibits third parties from taking any steps to reidentify the data or relate any deidentified personal information back to you and also contractually limits the purposes for which they can use the information. In some cases, we may share personal information such as your name, address, and contact information with third parties at your direction for the purposes of obtaining insurance quotes. When we share information, we strive to work with companies that share our commitment to privacy.

 

We may share your personal information for business purposes or as required or permitted by law with:

If you are using our Routely® mobile app as a driver relative to your employer’s usage-based commercial insurance policy, information may be shared with your employer.

Refining and developing statistical models relies on information collected over a long period of time, and this information is stored until it is no longer needed to provide products or services to you and to develop and refine our models.

Security

We recognize the importance of keeping your personal secure. We use a combination of reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information. However, no website, mobile application, database or system is completely secure or “hacker proof”. So, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. You are also responsible for taking reasonable steps to protect your personal information against unauthorized disclosure or misuse.

​

We limit access to your personal information to those who need it to do their jobs. We comply with all applicable federal and state data security laws.

 

Children’s personal information

Specific information for users in the EU, UK, EEA, and Switzerland

This section applies to personal information (referred to in this section as personal data) collected from users in the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK) or Switzerland or otherwise subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

​

Our legal basis for processing: For personal data that we process in connection with any products or services we offer to you or our business clients, we will generally process that personal data (i) based on consent, (ii) in order to take steps at your request, or (iii) for our legitimate interests in providing our services to you or otherwise in supporting the business needs.

 

Your Access and Choices: You may have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

  • Rectify any inaccurate personal data that we hold about you;

  • Have your personal data erased under certain circumstances;

  • Have the processing of your personal data restricted where you dispute its accuracy, if you think its processing is unlawful, if you otherwise object to its processing, or when we no longer need your personal data and you need it in relation to a legal claim;

  • Have access to your personal data, and the right to receive copies of your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and transfer those copies to another data controller, under certain circumstances;

  • Complain to your national data protection regulator if you feel that any of your personal information is not being processed in accordance with the GDPR.

  • ​

To exercise your rights to access, rectify or erase your personal data, you can submit a request to privacy@arity.com.

 

Use of your personal data for analytics and profiling: We use your personal data to assist in our development of predictive driving models. We may profile your personal data only for the purposes of creating a driving score (“Driving Score”), which is used for our analytics purposes to develop and validate our predictive driving models.  To develop our predictive driving models we gather information about your driving behaviors, such as speed, change in speed, and other aspects of how much, where and when you drive to predict driving risk.  These driving behaviors may be combined with other demographic or geographic information about driving risk for certain locations, which incorporate relative risks.

 

However, we take steps to remove all personal data that is not necessary to the predictive driving models. So, while your Driving Score incorporates your GPS location data, it will not be directly connected to your name, contact information, or vehicle information unless we have obtained your explicit consent to do so in advance.

 

In addition, we do not do any of the following without obtaining your prior explicit consent to do so:

  • Use personal data or Driving Scores to make automated decisions that have significant effects for individuals, because individuals are not identifiable within the data set;

  • Use any insights, model output, or Driving Scores with personal data for any purpose other than internal analytics or our predictive driving models; or

  • Use your profile or Driving Score to advertise to you.

 

After pseudonymizing the Driving Scores, we may share the pseudonymized Driving Scores with business clients. Please refer to the business client’s privacy notices for the products and services you have elected to use for details about their privacy practices.  Other than sharing pseudonymized Driving Scores with business clients, we do not share Driving Scores with third parties, unless we are required pursuant to lawful legal process.

 

Your Driving Score will in no way impact the availability or your use of our products or services.

 

Your right to withdraw consent: If you withdraw your consent, we will stop processing the relevant personal data except to the extent we have other grounds for processing under applicable laws. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe. You may withdraw your consent at any time; however, Arity will not be able to provide or continue to provide products or services to you.

 

There may be cases where restrictions on the amount of data that can be disclosed to data subjects under applicable law (for example, if that would necessarily involve disclosing data about another person). Arity is permitted to withhold some types of personal data in certain circumstances, subject to applicable local law requirements. If there is a dispute, please contact us using the information in the “Contact Us” section. In addition, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The name and contact details of the supervisory authorities in the European Union can be found at http://ec.europa.eu/justice/article-29/structure/data-protection-authorities/index_en.htm.

Personal data transfers: Transfers of personal data outside of the EU, UK or EEA must meet certain legal requirements. Arity relies on Standard Contractual Clauses that have been approved by the European Commission to comply with these requirements. Under the GDPR, Arity acts as data controller with respect to such transfers. Arity also ensures it uses corresponding Standard Contractual Clauses with any vendor that it engages in connection with the processing of any of your personal data that is subject to these transfer requirements.

 

EU-U.S., Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield, and UK Extension Data Privacy Framework: Arity complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF) and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.  Arity has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union and the United Kingdom in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF.  Arity has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF.  If there is any conflict between the terms in this privacy policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern.  To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/

 

Accountability for onward transfer: Where Arity transfers personal data as provided above to a third party, we will do so consistent with the notice provided to you and any consent provided (if applicable), and contractually require the third party to process the personal data for limited and specified purposes consistent with the lawful basis for processing, and provide us notice of any concerns with its ability to comply with these promises. We will also contractually require the third party to stop processing personal data or take other reasonable and appropriate steps to in the event it cannot meet its data protection obligations. Arity remains liable under the DPF Principles where any third-party service provider processes personal data subject to its DPF certification in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, except where Arity is otherwise not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
