Privacy Policy

Introduction

Aloha Petroleum LLC and Aloha Petroleum, Ltd. (collectively, “Aloha,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to respecting your privacy. This privacy policy describes how we and some of the companies we work with collect, use, share, and protect information in connection with our websites, portals, mobile apps, and other online applications (collectively, the “Website”), and your choices and rights regarding the collection and use of your information.

This privacy notice applies to any Aloha Website that displays or links to this privacy notice and to all visitors, users, and others who access the Website from the United States (“users”). This privacy notice does not apply to websites, portals, mobile apps, or other online applications that have their own privacy notice or otherwise do not display or link to this policy. For European residents, this privacy policy describes the basis on which we process personal data and for what purposes, a summary of the privacy rights under applicable European privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and how we protect personal data. Aloha is the data controller under GDPR and the personal data is processed by Aloha in the US (which has a lower standard of data privacy laws compared to the GDPR). This privacy policy also addresses how Aloha complies with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”).

WHEN YOU ACCESS THIS WEBSITE, YOUR DATA WILL BE PROCESSED AND STORED IN THE UNITED STATES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS TRANSFER, PLEASE STOP ALL USE OF THIS WEBSITE. FOR MORE INFORMATION, SEE BELOW, “VISITORS FROM OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES—CROSS-BORDER TRANSFER.”

Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies

Types of Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Website and ads use cookies and similar technologies to collect and store certain log data and cookie data when you visit or interact with our Website or ads in order to identify your browser or device and enable certain features and functionality. These technologies include the following:

  • Cookies
    Cookies are small text files that are sent to and stored by your browser when you visit or interact with our Website and ads. These cookies are then sent back to the party that served the cookie unchanged each time you visit or interact with the Website or ads (which includes our ads on third-party sites) in order for the party that served the cookie to recognize your browser or device. Cookies are either first-party cookies or third-party cookies. “First-party cookies” are sent to your browser by the party that operates the site you are visiting (for example, cookies served by Aloha when you visit the Website). “Third-party cookies” are sent to your browser by any party other than the party that operates the site you are visiting (for example, cookies sent by our online partners, such as Google Analytics, when you visit the Website). Further, when we use cookies, we may use “session” cookies (which last until you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (which last until you or your browser deletes them). Some of the cookies we use on the Website and our ads may be associated with your personal information (such as your email address) and other cookies are not.
  • Pixel Tags
    Pixel tags (also known as web beacons) are small blocks of code installed on our Website that enable our online partners to serve cookies when you visit our Website and are generally used in combination with cookies to track user activity on our Website, receive relevant log data and cookie data, and perform other activities relating to the monitoring and analysis of the use and performance of the Website and our ads.
  • Software Development Kits
    Software development kits (also called SDKs) function like third-party cookies and pixel tags, but operate in the mobile app environment where cookies and pixel tags cannot function as effectively. Instead of using cookies and pixels tags, we may install pieces of code (the SDK) provided by our online partners (such as advertising companies, ad networks, and analytics providers) in our mobile apps in order for these online partners to monitor and analyze the use and performance of our Website and ads.
  • Statistical Identifiers
    Statistical identifiers refers to identifiers created using certain device information and log data. Collectively, this information makes your browser or device sufficiently distinct for a server or similar system to reasonably determine that it is encountering the same browser or device over time. Statistical identifiers enable us and our partners to uniquely identify your browser or device for the same purposes as cookies. Statistical identifiers may be associated with your personal information (such as your email address).

Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies by Our Online Partners

We may use vendors and other online partners to perform some of the activities described above, including to provide audience measurement and analytics services, to serve ads on our behalf on our Website and on third-party sites, and to track and report on the performance of such ads. These online partners may use third-party cookies and similar technologies to collect and store certain device information, log data, cookie data and other information when you visit or interact with our Website or ads and other unaffiliated sites in order to identify your browser or device and provide their respective services. Further, these online partners may combine data collected on our Website with information collected on unaffiliated sites or with any other data maintained by these online partners. Their use of data collected on our Website and third-party sites will be subject to their own terms of use and privacy policies.

For example, we may use third-party cookies to deliver our ads on third-party websites through a common form of online advertising known as “retargeting.” Retargeting works by serving ads on one website based on an individual’s activities on a different website (for example, if you view a product or service on our Website, you may later see ads for our products and services when you visit a third-party website). To do this, we allow our online partners (such as Google or other ad network vendors) to serve their own third-party cookies when users visit our Website, allowing these online partners to recognize users who have previously visited our Website. When these users visit a third-party website that includes features provided by our online partners (for example, where our online partners have purchased ad space), our online partners can recognize the users’ interest in our products and services and deliver one of our ads on the third-party website.
You have the choice to tell us not to collect and use this information, and in some jurisdictions, we will only engage in interest-based advertising if you opt-in. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices concerning interest-based ads, visit:

Social Plugins

This Website may use social plugins (for example, the Facebook “Like” button or “Share to Twitter” button) to enable you to easily share information with others. When you visit our Website, the operator of the social plugin may be able to place a cookie on your browser or device, enabling that operator to recognize users who have previously visited our Website. If you have previously logged into the associated social media website (for example, Facebook or Twitter) before visiting our Website, the social plugin allows that social media website to receive information about your visit to particular pages on our Website. The social plugin may collect this information for any such users who have logged into social networks, whether or not they specifically interact with the plugin on our Website (for example, by clicking “Like” or “Share”). The social plugin may also allow the social media website to share information about your activities on our Website with other users of their social media website. For further details about the information shared via a particular social media plugin, you should refer to that social media site’s privacy policies and terms of use.
