https://arsmobile.pkwillis.com/ARSMobileAgent, including other media forms,

(“Privacy Policy”) is designed to inform you, as a user of the Website, about
the types of information that Company may gather about or collect from you in
connection with your use of the Website. It also is intended to explain the
conditions under which Company uses and discloses that information, and your
rights in relation to that information. Changes to this Privacy Policy are

the current version of this Privacy Policy will apply. Accordingly, each time

The Website is hosted in the United States of
America and is subject to U.S. state and federal law. If you are accessing our
Website from other jurisdictions, please be advised that you are transferring
your personal information to us in the United States, and by using our Website,

in their jurisdiction. If your use of the Website would be unlawful in your

BY USING OR ACCESSING THE WEBSITE, YOU ARE
ACCEPTING THE PRACTICES DESCRIBED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
GATHERING, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF NON-PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING
INFORMATION
Users of the Website Generally
“Non-Personally-Identifying Information” is
information that, without the aid of additional information, cannot be directly
associated with a specific person. “Personally-Identifying Information,” by
contrast, is information such as a name or email address that, without more,
can be directly associated with a specific person. Like most website operators,
Company gathers from users of the Website Non-Personally-Identifying
Information of the sort that Web browsers, depending on their settings, may
make available. That information includes the user’s Internet Protocol (IP)
address, operating system, browser type and the locations of the websites the
user views right before arriving at, while navigating and immediately after
leaving the Website. Although such information is not Personally-Identifying
Information, it may be possible for Company to determine from an IP address a
user’s Internet service provider and the geographic location of the visitor’s
point of connectivity as well as other statistical usage data. Company analyzes Non-Personally-Identifying
Information gathered from users of the Website to help Company better
understand how the Website is being used. By identifying patterns and trends in
usage, Company is able to better design the Website to improve users’
experiences, both in terms of content and ease of use. From time to time,
Company may also release the Non-Personally-Identifying Information gathered
from Website users in the aggregate, such as by publishing a report on trends
in the usage of the Website.
Web Cookies
A “Web Cookie” is a string of information which
assigns you a unique identification that a website stores on a user’s computer,
and that the user’s browser provides to the website each time the user submits
a query to the website. We use cookies on the Website to keep track of services
you have used, to record registration information regarding your login name and
password, to record your user preferences, to keep you logged into the Website
and to facilitate purchase procedures. Company
does not use Web Cookies for this application.
Web Beacons
A “Web Beacon” is an object that is embedded in
a web page or email that is usually invisible to the user and allows website
operators to check whether a user has viewed a particular web page or an email.
Company may use Web Beacons on the Website and in emails to count users who
have visited particular pages, viewed emails and to deliver co-branded
services. Web Beacons are not used to access users’ Personally-Identifying
Information. They are a technique Company may use to compile aggregated
statistics about Website usage. Web Beacons collect only a limited set of
information, including a Web Cookie number, time and date of a page or email
view and a description of the page or email on which the Web Beacon resides. Company does not use Web Beacons for this
application.
Analytics
We may partner with selected third parties to
allow tracking technology on the Website, which will enable them to collect
data about how you interact with the Website and our services over time. This
information may be used to, among other things, analyze and track data,
determine the popularity of certain content and better understand online activity.
Aggregated and Non-Personally-Identifying
Information
We may share aggregated and Non-Personally
Identifying Information we collect under any of the above circumstances. We may
also share it with third parties and our affiliate companies to develop and
deliver targeted advertising on the Website and on websites of third parties.
We may combine Non-Personally Identifying Information we collect with
additional Non-Personally Identifying Information collected from other sources.
We also may share aggregated information with third parties, including
advisors, advertisers and investors, for the purpose of conducting general
business analysis. For example, we may tell our advertisers the number of
visitors to the Website and the most popular features or services accessed.
This information does not contain any Personally-Identifying Information and
may be used to develop website content and services that we hope you and other
users will find of interest and to target content and advertising.

The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act

person who provides Personally-Identifying Information through the Website
represents to us that he or she is 13 years of age or older. If we learn that
Personally-Identifying Information has been collected from a user under 13
years of age on or through the Website, then we will take the appropriate steps
to cause this information to be deleted. If you are the parent or legal
guardian of a child under 13 who has become a member of the Website or has
otherwise transferred Personally-Identifying Information to the Website, please

CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

known as the "Shine The Light" law, permits our users who are
California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of
charge, information about the Personally-Identifying Information (if any) we
disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding
calendar year. If applicable, this information would include a list of the

DO-NOT-TRACK POLICY
Most web browsers and some mobile operating
systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to
signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing
activities monitored and collected. Because there is not yet a common
understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, the Website currently does
not respond to DNT browser signals or mechanisms.
