Opinion: Are these policies defined to protect you, the consumer, or
YOU, the business? Explain your answer.
Ampco’s Privacy/Security Policy is a standard policy that most websites state. They state
that they do collect certain information about you and your use of their website and then go into
detail as to what that information is. It is the typical information that they track: your
geographical location, length of visit, number of pages viewed; any information you provide to
them to make a purchase ect… They go on to say that their site does use Cookies. They use
the cookies to improve their website’s usability and for marketing purposes.
Their Security Policy explains that they do share your data, but not your personal data. The
data that they do share are things like what you looked at while you were on their site, your
location, and how long you were there. The data that they do not share are any of your personal
data, or financial data. Financially data is encrypted and stored on their server.
There was one statement in their Security policy that bothered me. They state that “you are
responsible for keeping your personal identity information confidential. We will not ask you for
information that is not needed to complete transaction on your behalf or that is needed to
communicate with you. This bothers me, because I believe that this is their legal out if any of
your personal information does get leaked. They do not want to assume responsibility for that
leakage.
I believe that these policies are designed to protect both the company and me personally as
a consumer. A business should want to protect their customers as much as they can. If they
have a security breach and their customer’s information is stolen, they run the risk of losing
valuable future business from those customers. It is in their best interest to protect them as
much as they can. But ultimately I believe that these protections are for their best interest as it
protects them from lawsuits, and also helps them better recognize how they can better serve
their customer with all the information they save on each of them.
