  • Performance of a contract, such as managing your access to your customer or supplier account, processing and tracking service requests and orders;
  • Fulfill business or legal obligations such as when processing is required by law, such as retention of purchase or service invoices); or

Retention of Personal Information
We store your personal information as long as necessary to carry out the purposes for which we originally collected it and for other legitimate business purpose, including to meet our legal, regulatory or other compliance obligations. You can find more details about our personal information retention by contacting [email protected].

Safeguarding Your Information
Cummins has put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial practices to help safeguard and secure the information we collect online from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, alteration, destruction, or theft. This includes appropriate safeguards for customers making purchases through our sites, as well as those who enroll in our programs. The safeguards that we have adopted are commensurate with the sensitivity of the information and are updated as warranted to address evolving security risks.

Children
This website is not intended for or directed at children under the age of 13. In addition, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we mistakenly collected any information from anyone under the age of 13 or the cutoff age in the relevant country where the child resides, we will purge it immediately, except as required by law.

Cross-Border Transfers of Personal Information
As a global organization, Cummins transfers and stores some of the personal information we collect outside of its country of origin.  This may include transfers to third parties assisting us in other countries as well as cloud storage of the data.  If you live outside of the United States, you should be aware that the data privacy laws that apply to personal information differ from country to country, and do not always offer a consistent level of protection to that offered in your country.  Nevertheless, Cummins has adopted measures that are designed to ensure that cross-border transfers of personal data take place in accordance with applicable data protection laws and requirements. The measures include assessments of the data importer as well as applicable host country laws to ensure that the recipient is capable of upholding an adequate level of protection for the data and entering into appropriate written agreements with the data importer confirming that commitment. Cummins relies on the E.U. Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent data transfer mechanism for those transfers and has also put in place similar mechanisms for transfers between our group companies.

EU-US Privacy Shield Certification
Cummins adheres to the principles of the U.S. Department of Commerce’s EU-US Privacy Shield framework for its human resource and customer personal data. However, in light of the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in Case C-311/18 (“Schrems II”), Cummins discontinued its reliance on the Privacy Shield framework as a legal basis for transfers of personal data. Cummins nevertheless continues to remain certified to that framework as part of the company’s overall commitment to ensuring compliant and responsible data protection practices in the countries where we operate.

Updated February 2017


This Cookie Notice and Disclosure Statement applies to websites that are owned or operated by Cummins. It is intended to inform you about Cummins’ use of cookies, analytics and other similar technologies, as well as your options for rejecting the use of those items. Please note that we do not place any cookies described below for users in California, Colorado, Virginia, Utah and Connecticut that would constitute a sale of personal information or sharing of personal information for targeted advertising. To the extent any of the cookies below constitute a sale or sharing, we will only place them on users’ browsers that are not from these states.
 
What are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of data sent from a website and stored on a user's devices. When the user browses the same page in the future, the cookie notifies us of the user's previous activity. Cookies do not harm your computer in any way, and some are automatically deleted after a certain period of time, such as six months.

Does Cummins use cookies?
Yes. We use certain types of cookies on our sites and other services. This allows us to collect information through a variety of technologies. This helps us identify visitors who return to our site and tells us such things as how many users visited our site, the pages that were accessed, and whether there were any technical problems in loading pages or navigating through our site. By collecting this information, we learn what parts of our websites and other services are the most interesting or valuable to our users, and can monitor overall interest in our products and services. It also lets us spot technical problems so we can correct them right away. This, in turn, helps us upgrade our services and improve our offerings for our visitors.
 
Am I required to accept cookies?

No. You can disable the use of non-essential cookies in the Privacy Preference Center. You can also disable the use of all cookies by websites including ours by turning off the cookie function on your browser. However, some portions of our websites as well as most other sites, will not work properly if you choose to do so. For example, if you choose to purchase something through our site or put in a password to access a restricted area, you will not be able to do so unless the site can authenticate you through cookies.
 
What cookies do you use?

There are four general categories of cookies that are used on websites:

  • Strictly necessary (or essential) cookies. These cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around a website and use its features, such as services you have asked for. Without these cookies, those services would not be available to you. This includes, for example, browsing as a registered user, accessing secure areas of the site, or making a purchase through the site. Like all public websites, our site uses strictly necessary cookies.
  • Performance cookies. These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies don’t collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated. It is only used to improve how the website works. Like virtually all websites, we use performance cookies on our sites.
  • Functionality cookies. These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. This allows you to have a better experience while using the site. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
  • Targeting or advertising cookies. These cookies collect information about your browsing habits in order to make advertising relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization.

What are web beacons?
Some types of cookies collect aggregate information which helps us to improve our websites by providing information, for example, on loading errors and the most visited webpages. Certain pages on our site may contain web beacons (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). We use web beacons to help display content to visitors and to generate statistics regarding web traffic and trends. Web beacons cannot identify you as an individual.

How do I opt-out (withdraw consent) to your use of cookies or similar web technologies?
You may opt out of non-essential cookies in the Privacy Preference Center or by setting your web browser to prevent the use of cookies. If you do so, you can still browse our site but may not be able to use many of its features or make purchases.
 
Third Party Websites

On some third-party websites, such as our social networking pages, it is possible that individuals have uploaded third party content, such as videos from YouTube or elsewhere, or embedded content and sharing tools from other third party sites. Since we do not control the dissemination of cookies by any sites that are not owned or operated by Cummins, you should check the relevant third party website(s) for more information about these cookies, and whether and how you may opt out of receiving them. Generally speaking, however, you may disable third party cookies by adjusting your browser settings. Instructions may be found at www.aboutcookies.org.
