PRIVACY
AIMCO is committed to protecting your privacy. Keeping your personal and financial
information secure is one of our most important responsibilities.
THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
In the course of your relationship with us we may collect personal information
about you, (such as your name, telephone number, and social security number)
and financial information (such as credit card or bank account numbers, and
credit history). We may also collect information that you provide when you
contact us or use our website. We use this information to process your applications
and requests for services, improve your experience on our website, provide
you with information about our services, otherwise service your needs, or
exercise or protect our rights under any law or contract with you. We do not
sell, trade, or rent your personal information to unaffiliated third parties
for marketing purposes.
COOKIES AND ANONYMOUS INFORMATION
To provide better service and a more effective website, we use "cookies"
as part of our interaction with your browser. A "cookie" is a small
text file placed on your hard drive by our web page server. These cookies
do not collect personally identifiable information, and we do not combine
information collected through cookies with other personal information to determine
who you are or your e-mail address. Cookies are commonly used on web sites
and do not harm your system. We use cookies to determine if you have previously
visited our website and for a number of administrative purposes.
When you use our website, we also collect anonymous information from you,
even if you have not registered with AIMCO. We use this information to personalize
your experience during your visit to www.aimco.com, and to show you the same
information (for example, “Last Searched for” in the Apartment
Search Section) each time you visit the web site. AIMCO will not share any
anonymous information about your use of our website with unaffiliated third
parties.
HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION
AIMCO will provide personal and financial information to other companies at
your request. For example, if you request to sign-up for certain utilities
on-line, then AIMCO will provide the necessary information to the utility
company or other third party vendors. Also, if you choose to pay your rent
or for other services on-line, then AIMCO will provide the necessary information
to process the transaction to third party vendors. We may also use and disclose
your information in order to enforce or preserve our rights under a law, a
lease, an application for residency, or any contract with you, or in a lawful
attempt to collect a debt owed by you. In certain special cases, we may use
and disclose your personally identifiable information to unaffiliated third
parties when we have reason to believe that this information is necessary
to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing
injury to you, or otherwise injuring or interfering with AIMCO’s rights,
property or operations, other AIMCO users, or anyone else who could be harmed
by such activities. We may also disclose your personally identifiable information
when we believe the law requires it, or in response to any request by law
enforcement authorities in connection with a criminal investigation, or civil
or administrative authorities in connection with a pending civil case or administrative
investigation.
INFORMATION SECURITY
AIMCO values your trust and handles your information with care. When you apply
online for a user account or services, you provide personal information that
is necessary for us to process your application. To ensure that your application
remains confidential, the information is sent to us in a "secure session"
established with Secure Socket Layer (SSL). After you have submitted your
application online, we recommend that you end your browser session before
leaving your computer.
We, along with the outside companies with which we work, if applicable, may
keep the information you provide to us, along with information we collect
from outside sources. AIMCO operates secure data networks protected by industry
standard firewall and password protection. AIMCO has security measures in
place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your
user data under our control. We safeguard information according to established
security standards and procedures, and we continually assess new technology
for protecting information. Our employees are trained to understand and comply
with these information principles.
INDEMNIFICATION
Upon a request by AIMCO, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless
AIMCO and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their employees, officers and
directors from all liabilities, claims and expenses, including attorney's
fees, that arise from your use or misuse of the Site. AIMCO reserves the right,
at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter
otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which you will cooperate with
AIMCO in asserting any available defenses.
