Your Privacy Rights
Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. ("KMC") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of each visitor to the websites operated by or on behalf of KMC. Because privacy and consumer trust are important to us, we have developed the following Privacy Policy for you to explain in detail our policies and practices.
Privacy Policy
This privacy policy describes the treatment of information provided or collected on the family of websites consisting of kawasaki.com and kawpower.com in addition to other promotional or special interest web sites periodically made available by KMC (each, a "Website" and collectively, the "Websites"). Your use of any of the Websites signifies your agreement to this Privacy Policy and, as applicable, KMC's Terms and Conditions of Use and Terms and Conditions of Sale. If you do not agree to this Privacy Statement, you should not access the Websites and should use your browser's "Back" button to exit.

1. Information Collected
In order to access certain products, services and areas (collectively, the "Services") within the Websites, you will be asked to disclose certain identifying information (collectively, "Personal Information") listed in the online Member Registration page or other pages within the Websites. This information may include your legal name, address, shipping address, phone number, e-mail address, subscriber or user name, information concerning your ownership of products sold by KMC, areas of interest and password used to access the Services. KMC reserves the right to request any additional information necessary to establish and maintain your account for use of any of the Services available on the Websites.
When you purchase products from us, we may note, for example, the type of products ordered and other Services requested or purchased and the date of the order or purchase, in addition to credit card information related to the purchase. You may provide us other types of Personal Information when you visit a Website, including when you participate in activities on the Website such as sweepstakes, contests, games and informational and promotional offers, and when you provide information to our customer service representatives.
In addition to information that you provide us, we automatically track certain information based upon your behavior on a Website and in connection with the Services. We use data collection devices, such as cookies or web beacons, on certain pages of the Websites to help analyze our web page flow, website performance and structure content, store your user preferences, and track and enhance your experience as a user on the Websites. Cookies are pieces of information that a Website transfers to an individual's computer for record keeping purposes. These cookies will be placed as a text file in the browser of your computer. Web beacons are small pieces of data that are embedded in images on the pages of a Website. Cookies, web beacons and other technical methods may involve the transmission of information either directly to us or to another party authorized by us to collect information on our behalf. Other information that we may automatically collect includes computer type; browser-type and plug-ins; operating system; java script enables; domain registration and configuration; and geographic location. Additionally, we may automatically collect the Uniform Resource Locator (the "URL") of the web pages that you view. The URL is the location of the web page. We may collect the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on a Website or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on a Website or not), your computer browser information and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. Your IP address is a unique numerical address consisting of four numbers separated by periods which provides the location of an individual computer on the Internet. IP addresses are used to designate the computer from which you are accessing the Websites.
We may update and supplement Personal Information that we have collected directly from our users with other information that we obtain from third parties. We may also obtain Personal Information about individuals who are not yet users of the Website. In addition, when we associate information that we obtain from third parties with Personal Information that we have collected under this Privacy Policy, we will treat the acquired information like the information that we collected ourselves and, except as permitted by this Privacy Policy, the information will not be shared with third parties.
2. Uses of Personal Information
Personal Information collected as provided above is the property of KMC, subject to and protected by applicable laws. We use the Personal Information to provide the Services to you and to contact you with information about our products and services, including reports and customer notifications. In addition, Personal Information collected by KMC will be used by KMC for editorial and feedback purposes, for marketing and promotional purposes, for a statistical analysis of your behavior while using the Websites, for product development, for content improvement, to inform advertisers as to how many visitors have seen or clicked on their advertisements, and to customize content and layout of the Websites. Names, postal and e-mail addresses collected may be added to KMC's databases and used for future communications and mailings regarding Websites updates, consumer surveys, new products and services, upcoming events, and status of orders placed online.
We use the information that we automatically collect from you and your Personal Information to structure content for you to view, for marketing purposes, to improve the performance and availability of our Websites, and to provide customer support. You agree that we may use Personal Information about you to market to you, better target your interests, analyze Website usage, improve our content, and customize the Website's content, layout and Services. We use "cookies" to help analyze our web page flow, measure promotional effectiveness and store your user preferences. We use aggregate information to measure Website performance and identify trends in customer use. These uses improve the Websites and better tailor them to meet your needs, so as to provide you with a smooth, efficient, safe and customized experience while using the Websites. You agree that we may use your Personal Information to contact you and deliver information to you that you have requested and that is targeted to your interests. You may also receive administrative notices and communications relevant to your use of the Website. By accepting the Privacy Policy through use of any of the Websites, you expressly agree to our use and our service providers' right to receive and use this information.
3. Consent to Processing and Transfer of Personal Information
The Websites are operated in the United States. Given that KMC is part of an international family of businesses, our use of your information may involve the transmission of data on an international basis. This Website is not intended to collect Personal Information from residents of the European Union, and KMC’s data collection processes are not designed to facilitate the use or storage of such information. Accordingly, KMC’s privacy policies do not comply with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation. If you are located in the European Union, Canada or elsewhere outside the United States and KMC , unknowingly collects Personal Information from you, (i) we may use your email address for the sole purpose of responding to your request or question on a one-time-only basis, (ii) your Personal Information will not be used in any way, and (iii) we will make reasonable efforts to promptly delete such information from our database. If you are located elsewhere outside the United States and the European Union, please understand that information we collect may be transferred to and processed in the United States. By using any of the Websites, or providing us with any information, you consent to the collection, processing, maintenance and transfer of such information in and to the United States and other applicable territories in which the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as or equivalent to those in the country where you reside and/or are a citizen.
4. Disclosure of Personal Information
Except as expressly set forth herein, or unless authorized as part of your Member Registration, as a part of your shopping experience or as a part of your interest in any Services, KMC will not sell, rent, swap or otherwise disclose your Personal Information to any entity with KMC is not affiliated.
KMC reserves the right to disclose to third parties information about your usage of the Websites and any related services, including information gathered during your use of the Websites. Any third party to which KMC rents, sells, shares or otherwise discloses personal data will be carefully pre-screened by KMC, determined by KMC to be reputable, and will use the personal data for marketing products and services which KMC determines, in its sole judgment, that you might find of interest. Generally, KMC will disclose such information to third parties only in the form of aggregate data (such as overall patterns or demographic reports) that does not describe or identify any individual user. KMC reserves the right, however, to disclose more specific information to the dealer you designate as a part of your Member Registration, as a part of your shopping experience or as a part of your interest in any Services and to other third parties, unless you select the "Opt-out" option during the member registration process or thereafter by using the applicable functionality available for updating your Personal Information.
We may provide aggregated, non-personally identifiable information to third parties for any legal purposes whatsoever, such as the number of users who searched for a particular term or item, or how many users clicked on a particular page or item on a Website. Such aggregated information does not identify you personally.
In addition, we will consider, and may release, information about you to third parties to comply with valid legal requirements such as a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order, to enforce our Privacy Policy, Terms and Conditions of Use, Terms and Conditions of Sale or other agreements on the Websites, upon your request, or to contact, identify or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with our or others' rights or property, including but not limited to claims for infringement of intellectual property, invasion of privacy or situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person. You grant us and all other persons or entities involved in the operation of the Websites the right to receive, transmit, monitor, retrieve, store and use your Personal Information, including without limitation information which may be privileged and confidential under applicable state and federal laws, in connection with the operation of the Websites and as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
Due to the existing regulatory and technological environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other Personal Information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose Personal Information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your Personal Information or private communications will always remain private.
5. How We Protect and Store Personal Information
We protect your Personal Information by maintaining physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state regulations. We use computer safeguards such as firewalls and data encryption, and we authorize access to Personal Information only for those employees who require it to fulfill their job responsibilities. ALTHOUGH WE EMPLOY MANY DIFFERENT SECURITY TECHNIQUES TO PROTECT SUCH DATA FROM UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS BY USERS, ABSOLUTE SECURITY DOES NOT EXIST ON THE INTERNET. KMC will have no liability for disclosure of Personal Information due to errors in transmission, unauthorized acts of third parties or through the use of third party cookies including those of advertisers when you view or click on their advertisements.
6. Children's Online Privacy
This Website is not intended for use by children under 13. As part of our compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, we do not knowingly collect names and email addresses from children under 13. In the event a child under the age of 13 submits a request or question to us on a Website and identifies his or her age, we may use the child's email address for the sole purpose of responding to the child's question on a one-time-only basis. However, we will not use the child's email address for subsequent contact with the child, and we will delete that address from our records once we have responded. If we become aware that we have unknowingly collected Personal Information from a child under the age of 13, we will make reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database.
We do not sell or knowingly divulge ANY personally identifiable information regarding children under 13 to third parties, unless otherwise required to comply with applicable laws, to comply with a court order or subpoena, to enforce our Terms and Conditions of Use, or to protect the safety and security of our users and our Websites.
Children should check with their parent or guardian before entering personally identifiable information on any website, and we urge parents and guardians to discuss with their kids restrictions regarding the online release of personally identifiable information to anyone they don't know.
7. User Access to Personal Information Collected
You may access, modify, correct, change or update your Personal Information at any time through the Member Registration page by using the applicable functionality available for updating your Personal Information. Your Personal Information and any related information is password-restricted for your protection. You may also change your password when you use the functionality available to access your Personal Information.
8. Opt-Out Right
If you do not wish to receive any special offers or other communications from KMC, its dealers or third parties, you have the right to select the appropriate option during the membership registration process or when you submit your Personal Information. In addition, at any time after you have registered, you may "Opt-out" using the applicable functionality available for updating your Personal Information.
In some limited circumstances, such as to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our Terms and Conditions of Use, we may retain in our files information you have requested us to remove. Further, your Personal Information is never completely removed from our databases due to technical constraints and the fact that we back up our systems. Therefore, you should not expect that all of your Personal Information will be completely removed from our databases in response to your requests.
We reserve the right to send you certain communications related to this Website that are considered part of your account, such as technical alerts, without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them. In some cases, your account may expire or be terminated under our Terms and Conditions of Use. If so, you may contact us at marketing.consumer@kmc-usa.com to update your information and opt-out choices (to the extent that we still retain them).
9. Links to Non-Affiliated Websites
This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected by the Websites. The Websites may contain links to other websites that are not owned or controlled by KMC. Please be aware that KMC is not responsible for the privacy practices of other internet sites. When you leave our site, please read the privacy statements of any website that may collect your Personal Information.
10. Updates
KMC reserves the right to change or update this Privacy Policy, or any other KMC policy or practice, at any time. Any changes or updates will be effective immediately upon posting to the Websites, and your use of any of the Websites following such posting constitutes your acceptance of the Privacy Policy as so changed or updated.
11. KMC's Right to Contact You; Contacting KMC
KMC reserves the right to contact visitors to the Websites regarding account status and changes to the Terms and Conditions of Use, Terms and Conditions of Sale, Privacy Policy, or any other policies or agreements relevant to visitors or users of the Websites.
If you have questions or concerns regarding this Privacy Policy, you should contact us at marketing.consumer@kmc-usa.com. Please be assured that any Personal Information that you provide in communications to this email address will not be used to send you promotional materials, unless you so request.
12. Your California Privacy Rights
California residents have certain additional rights as more fully detailed in our California Privacy Notice. In the event of a conflict between that notice and this policy, that notice will govern California residents’ privacy rights.
Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. California Privacy Notice
Effective Date: As of January 1, 2020; updated as of July 1, 2020
This notice reflects our good faith understanding of the law and our data practices as of the date posted (set forth above), but the CCPA’s implementing regulations recently became final and there remain differing interpretations of the law. Accordingly, we may from time-to-time update information in this and other notices regarding our data practices and your rights, modify our methods for responding to your requests, and/or supplement our response to your requests, as we continue to develop our compliance program to reflect the evolution of the law and our understanding of how it relates to our data practices.
This California Privacy Notice (“Notice”) applies to “Consumers” as defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) as a supplement to Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A.’s (“KMC”, “Company”, “us”, “we”, “our”) other privacy policies or notices. In the event of a conflict between any other Company policy, statement or notice and this Notice, this Notice will prevail as to California Consumers and their rights under the CCPA. Please see also any general privacy policy or notice posted or referenced on our websites, apps, products, or services including, without limitation, www.kawasaki.com, www.kawasakisalesrewards.com, www.kawasakienginesusa.com, kpp.kawasaki.com, www.kawasaki-research.com.
This Notice covers our collection, use, disclosure, and sale of California Consumers’ “Personal Information” (“PI”) as defined by the CCPA, except to the extent such PI is exempt from the notice obligations of the CCPA for the twelve months preceding the Effective Date. This Notice also covers rights California Consumers have under the CCPA, as well other notices to Californians required by other laws. The description of our data practices in this Notice, as required by the CCPA, covers only calendar year 2019 and will be updated annually. Our practices in calendar year 2020 may differ. However, if materially different from this Notice we will provide pre-collection notice of the current practices, which may include reference to our general privacy policy or other applicable privacy notices, which will reflect current practices.
Consistent with the CCPA, job applicants, current and former employees and independent contractors (“Personnel”), and subjects of certain business-to-business communications acting solely in their capacity as representatives of another business, are not considered “Consumers” for purposes of this California Privacy Notice or the rights described herein. However, our Personnel may obtain a separate privacy notice that is applicable to them by contacting our Human Resources department. Publicly available information is also not treated as PI under the CCPA, so this notice is not intended to apply to that data and your Consumer privacy rights do not apply to that data.
To aid in readability, in some places we have abbreviated or summarized CCPA terms or language, but a full copy of the CCPA is available here at Title 1.81.5 of the California Civil Code, Sections 1798.100 - .199 for your review, and in some places in this Notice we cite to specific CCPA sections for your reference. Terms defined in the CCPA that are used in this Notice shall have the same meaning as in the CCPA.
- PI WE COLLECT.
Based on our 2019 data practices, we give you notice that we collect the following types of PI about California Consumers, and use and share it as set forth below. This notice will be updated annually, and our current privacy notices at the point of collection, and general privacy policies, may reflect more current practices.

The chart above reflects the categories of PI required by the CCPA. There may be additional information that we collect that meets the CCPA’s definition of PI but is not reflected by a category, in which case we will treat it as PI as required by the CCPA, but will not include it when we are required to describe our practices by category of PI.
As permitted by applicable law, we do not treat deidentified data or aggregate consumer information as PI and we reserve the right to convert, or permit others to convert, your PI into deidentified data or aggregate consumer information, and may elect not to treat publicly available information as PI. We have no obligation to re-identify information or keep it longer than we need it to respond to your requests.

The CCPA is a new law and there remain differing interpretations of it and the regulations that implement it. Accordingly, we may from time-to-time update information in our notices regarding our data practices and your rights, modify our methods for you to make and for us to respond to your requests, and/or supplement our response(s) to your requests, as we continue to develop our compliance program to reflect the evolution of the law and our understanding of how it relates to our data practices.
We provide California Consumers the privacy rights described in this section. You have the right to exercise these rights via an authorized agent who meets the agency requirements of the CCPA and related regulations. As permitted by the CCPA, any request you submit to us is subject to an identity verification process (“Verifiable Consumer Request”). We will not fulfill your CCPA request unless you have provided sufficient information for us to reasonably verify you are the Consumer about whom we collected PI. Please follow the instructions at our Consumer Rights Request page here and respond to any follow up inquires we may make.
Some PI we maintain about Consumers is not sufficiently associated with enough PI about the Consumer for us to be able to verify that it is a particular Consumer’s PI when a Consumer request that requires verification pursuant to the CCPA’s verification standards is made (e.g., clickstream data tied only to a pseudonymous browser ID). As required by the CCPA we do not include that PI in response to those requests. If we cannot comply with a request, we will explain the reasons in our response. You are not required to create a password-protected account with us to make a Verifiable Consumer Request. We will use PI provided in a Verifiable Consumer Request only to verify your identity or authority to make the request and to track and document request responses, unless you also gave it to us for another purpose.
We will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify Consumer PI that we collect, process, store, disclose and otherwise use and to respond to your California Consumer privacy rights requests. In some cases, particularly with voluminous and/or typically irrelevant data, we may suggest that you receive the most recent or a summary of your PI and give you the opportunity to elect whether you want the rest or not. We reserve the right to direct you to where you may access and copy responsive PI yourself. We will typically not charge a fee to fully respond to your requests; provided, however, that we may charge a reasonable fee, or refuse to act upon a request, if your request is excessive, repetitive, unfounded or overly burdensome. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, or that we may refuse it, we will give you notice explaining why we made that decision. You will be provided a cost estimate and the opportunity to accept such fees before we will charge you for responding to your request.
Consistent with the CCPA and our interest in the security of your PI, we will not deliver to you your social security number, driver’s license number or other government-issued id number, financial account number, any health or medical identification number, an account password, security questions or answers, or unique biometric data generated from measurements or technical analysis of human characteristics in response to a CCPA request.
Your California Consumer privacy rights are as follows:
-
- Categories
You have the right to send us a request, no more than twice in a twelve-month period, for any of the following for the period that is twelve months prior to the request date:
- The categories of PI we have collected about you.
- The categories of sources from which we collected your PI.
- The business or commercial purposes for our collecting or selling your PI.
- The categories of third parties to whom we have shared your PI.
- A list of the categories of PI disclosed for a business purpose in the prior 12 months and, for each, the categories of recipients, or that no disclosure occurred.
- A list of the categories of PI sold about you in the prior 12 months and, for each, the categories of recipients, or that no sale occurred.
To make a request, follow the instructions at our Consumer Rights Request page here, email us here, or call us at (855) 976-2844. You will be asked to provide your name, email address, location of residency, and request details.
In order for us to look into your request, we first need to verify your identity, meaning that we need to make sure that you are the consumer we may have collected personal information about or a person who has been duly authorized to make the request on behalf of the consumer. You are not required to create a password-protected account with us to make a Verifiable Consumer Request. If you do not have a password-protected account, we are required to verify a consumer’s request to know categories of PI to a reasonable degree of certainty, which may include matching at least two data points provided by the consumer with data points maintained by us, which we have determined to be reliable for the purpose of verifying the consumer. If you fail to do so we will be unable to verify you sufficiently to honor your request. The information you send for us to verify your identity will be used for this purpose only.
For your specific pieces of information, as required by the CCPA, we will apply the heightened verification standards set forth in subsection (ii) below. Please note that PI is retained by us for various time periods, so we may not be able to fully respond to what might be relevant going back 12 months prior to the request.
- Specific Pieces
You have the right to make or obtain a transportable copy, no more than twice in a twelve-month period, of your PI that we have collected in the period that is 12 months prior to the request date and are maintaining. To make a request, follow the instructions at our Consumer Rights Request page here, email us here or call us at (855) 976-2844. You will be asked to provide your name, email address, location of residency, and request details. A confirmation email will be sent to your email address to verify your identity.
In order for us to look into your request, we first need to verify your identity, meaning that we need to make sure that you are the consumer we may have collected personal information about or a person who has been duly authorized to make the request on behalf of the consumer. You are not required to create a password-protected account with us to make a Verifiable Consumer Request, but you may use your password-protected account to do so. If you do not have a password-protected account, we are required to verify a consumer’s request to know specific pieces of PI to a reasonably high degree of certainty, which may include matching at least three data points provided by the consumer with data points maintained by us, which we have determined to be reliable for the purpose of verifying the consumer together with a signed declaration under penalty of perjury that the requestor is the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request. If you fail to provide the data points we will be unable to verify you sufficiently to honor your request. The information you send for us to verify your identity will be used for this purpose only.
Please note that PI is retained by us for various time periods, so we may not be able to fully respond to what might be relevant going back 12 months prior to the request.
- Categories
- Do Not Sell
We do not believe we sell PI as “sell” is defined under the CCPA. However, we reserve the right to do so in the future and accordingly you can opt-out of sale by following the instructions at our Consumer Rights Request page here.
There may be cookies and other tracking technologies associated with our online services that may provide data, which may be treated as PI under the CCPA, to other parties that may use it for their own purposes, which in turn may provide that data to other parties for their own purposes. While there is not yet a consensus, we do not believe that data practices of third-party cookies and tracking devices associated with our online services constitute a sale of PI by us and therefore we do not currently treat these activities as a “sale.” Currently, a do not sell request to us will not affect these third-party activities. However, on our consumer-facing websites we offer a cookie preference tool that gives you the ability to make certain choices regarding cookies, which you can access here. You can also exercise control over browser-based cookies by adjusting the settings on your browser, and mobile devices may offer ad and data limitation choices. In addition, third-party tools may enable you to search for and opt-out of some of these trackers, such as the Ghostery browser plug-in available at www.ghostery.com. For more information on cookies and your choices regarding them, including how to opt-out of certain interest-based advertising, see our online privacy policies on our websites. You can also learn more about how to exercise certain choices regarding cookies and interest-based advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices/, www.aboutads.info/appchoices, and www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.
We do not represent that these third-party tools, programs or statements are complete or accurate. Clearing cookies or changing settings may affect your choices and you may have to opt-out separately via each browser and other device you use. Cookie-enabled opt-outs signals may no longer be effective if you delete, block or clear cookies. We are not responsible for the completeness, accuracy or effectiveness of any third-party notices or choices.
For more information on how to exercise your do not sell rights, click here. You may alternatively exercise more limited control of your PI, such as unsubscribing from Kawasaki Stay Connected Emails, by instead exercising one of the following options: emailing us here or calling us at (855) 976-2844.
Some browsers have signals that may be characterized as do not track signals, but we do not understand them to operate in that manner or to indicate a do not sell expression by you so we currently do not recognize these as a do not sell request. Further, there is not currently a consensus as to how various user-enabled privacy or “do not track” signals or settings should be treated or what they mean, so we will not look for or respond to any that are not expressly listed here as programs in which we participate or otherwise accept, which may change as programs evolve. We understand that various parties are developing do not sell signals and we may recognize certain such signals if we conclude such a program is appropriate.
We do not knowingly sell the PI of Consumers under the age of 16.
We may disclose your PI for the following purposes, which are not a sale: (i) if you direct us to share PI; (ii) to comply with your requests under the CCPA; (iii) disclosures amongst the entities that constitute Company as defined above, or as part of a merger or asset sale; and (iv) as otherwise required or permitted by applicable law.
- Delete
Except to the extent we have a basis for retention under CCPA, you may request that we delete your PI that we have collected directly from you and are maintaining. Our retention rights include, without limitation, to complete transactions and service you have requested or that are reasonably anticipated, warranty purposes, for security purposes, for legitimate internal business purposes, including maintaining business records, to comply with law, to exercise or defend legal claims, and to cooperate with law enforcement. Note also that we are not required to delete your PI that we did not collect directly from you.
To make a request, follow the instructions at our Consumer Rights Request page here, email us here, or call us at (855) 976-2844. You will be asked to provide your name, email address, location of residence, and potentially additional details in order to verify your identification. A confirmation will be sent to your email address to verify your identity and to confirm that you want to delete your information.
In order for us to look into your request, we first need to verify your identity, meaning that we need to make sure that you are the consumer we may have collected personal information about or a person who has been duly authorized to make the request on behalf of the consumer. You are not required to create a password-protected account with us to make a Verifiable Consumer Request, but you may use your password-protected account to do so. If you do not have a password-protected account, we are required to verify a consumer’s request to delete to a reasonable degree of certainty, which may include matching at least two data points provided by the consumer with data points maintained by us, or to a reasonably high degree of certainty, which may include matching at least three data points provided by the consumer with data points maintained by us, depending on the sensitivity of the PI and the risk of harm to the consumer posted by unauthorized deletion. If you fail to provide the data points we will be unable to verify you sufficiently to honor your request. The information you send for us to verify your identity will be used for this purpose only.
- Non-Discrimination and Financial Incentive Programs
We will not discriminate against you in a manner prohibited by the CCPA because you exercise your CCPA rights. However, we may charge a different price or rate, or offer a different level or quality of good or service, to the extent that doing so is reasonably related to the value of the applicable data. In addition, we may offer you financial incentives for the collection, sale, retention and use of your PI as permitted by the CCPA that can, without limitation, result in reasonably different prices, rates, or quality levels. The material aspects of any financial incentive will be explained and described in its program terms. Please note that participating in incentive programs is entirely optional, you will have to affirmatively opt-in to the program and you can opt-out of each program (i.e., terminate participation and forgo the ongoing incentives) prospectively by following the instructions in the applicable program description and terms. We may add or change incentive programs and/or their terms by posting notice on the program descriptions and terms linked to above so check them regularly. - Authorized Agents
Authorized Agents of Consumers may make a request by visiting us here or calling (855) 976-2844. You may designate an agent to exercise your CCPA rights on your behalf. To exercise your rights via an agent, your agent must (1) provide a power of attorney document under California Probate Code Sections 4000 to 4465; or (2) submit a written authorization of his or her authority to act on your behalf. If your agent is a corporate entity, the agent must also provide a Certificate of Good Standing from the California Secretary of State. Once such authorization is submitted, you will receive an email at your email address asking you to verify the agent’s authority to submit a Consumer Rights Request on your behalf. - Limitation of Rights
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, we may collect, use and disclose your PI as required or permitted by applicable law and this may override your CCPA rights. In addition, we need not honor any of your requests to the extent that doing so would infringe upon our or any other person or party’s rights or conflict with applicable law.

- ADDITIONAL CALIFORNIA NOTICES.
In addition to CCPA rights, certain Californians are entitled to certain other notices, including:
- Third-Party Marketing and Your California Privacy Rights:
Separate from your CCPA “Do Not Sell” rights you have the following additional rights regarding disclosure of your information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes:
California Civil Code section 1798.83 permits individual Website users who are California residents to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, a list of the third parties to whom we have disclosed their PI (if any) for their direct marketing purposes in the prior calendar year, as well as the type of PI disclosed to those parties. If you are a California resident and would like to request this information, please submit your request in an email here or by sending a letter to us at Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A., 26972 Burbank, Foothill Ranch, CA 92610 (Attention: General Counsel). Requests must include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description and include your name, street address, city, state, and ZIP code. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through the provided email address or mail address.
As these rights and your CCPA rights are not the same and exist under different laws, you must exercise your rights under each law separately.
- Online Privacy Practices:
For more information on our online practices and your California rights specific to our online services see our online Privacy Policy. Without limitation, Californians that visit our online services and seek or acquire goods, services, money or credit for personal, family or household purposes are entitled to the following notices of their rights:
- Tracking and Targeting:
When you visit our online services, we and third parties may use tracking technologies to collect usage information based on your device for a variety of purposes, including serving you advertising, based on your having visited our services or your activities across time and third-party locations. Some browsers may enable you to turn on or off a so-called “Do Not Track” signal. Because there is no industry consensus on what these signals should mean and how they should operate, we do not look for or respond to “Do Not Track” signals. For more information on tracking and targeting and your choices regarding these practices, see our online Privacy Policy. - California Minors:
Any California residents under the age of eighteen (18) who have registered to use our online services, and who posted content or information on the service, can request removal by contacting us here, detailing where the content or information is posted and attesting that you posted it. We will then make reasonably good faith efforts to remove the post from prospective public view or anonymize it, so the minor cannot be individually identified to the extent required by applicable law. This removal process cannot ensure complete or comprehensive removal. For instance, third parties may have republished or archived content by search engines and others that we do not control.

Participating wireless carriers and/or each of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, agents, representatives and employees are not responsible for the Program, and none of them will have any liability or responsibility for any claim arising in connection with the Program.
-
DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
- FIRST STEP: INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION. If any dispute arises regarding these Terms & Conditions, the Program or KMC’s delivery of text messages via automated technology to you (individually a “Dispute,” and collectively “Disputes”), then you and KMC agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the Dispute, along with a proposed resolution of it. KMC’s notice to you will be sent to you based on the most recent contact information that you provided KMC (including via text or message). If no such information exists or if such information is not current, then KMC has no obligation under this section of the Terms & Conditions governing Dispute Resolution (this “Dispute Resolution Section”). Your notice to KMC must be sent to: Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A., P.O. Box 25252, Santa Ana, CA 92799-5252. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, KMC and you will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Dispute, although nothing will require either you or KMC to resolve the Dispute on terms with respect to which you and KMC, in each of your and KMC’s sole discretion, are not comfortable.
- BINDING ARBITRATION. Any Dispute that cannot first be resolved through informal methods as described in “First Step: Informal Dispute Resolution” of this Dispute Resolution Section shall be submitted to binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (the “Rules”). The arbitral hearing shall take place in Orange County, California. After the hearing, the arbitrator(s) shall decide the controversy and render a written decision setting forth the issues adjudicated, the resolution thereof and the reasons for the award. Payment of the expenses of arbitration, including the fee of the arbitrator(s), shall be assessed by the arbitrator(s) based on the extent to which each party prevails. Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceedings will be final and binding on the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS IN ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. Any enforcement of any arbitration decision or award may only be instituted in a state or Federal court located in Orange County, California. Accordingly, you and KMC consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such matters to the exclusion of any other court which otherwise might have had jurisdiction.
- NO CLASS ACTION MATTERS. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be joined or consolidated with any other arbitrations or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. THIS MEANS YOU AND KMC AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS REGARDING SUCH DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. There shall be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or on any basis involving Disputes brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, or other persons or entities similarly situated. If for any reason any court with competent jurisdiction holds that this restriction regarding arbitration on a class-action basis is unconscionable or unenforceable, then the Dispute must be brought exclusively in a State or Federal court located in Orange County, California. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Dispute Resolution Section, any and all issues relating to the scope, interpretation and enforceability of this paragraph, including the class action waiver provisions contained herein (described as “No Class Action Matters” in this Dispute Resolution Section), are to be decided only by a Federal or State Court located in Orange County, California, and not by the arbitrator.
- LIMITED TIME TO FILE CLAIMS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR KMC WANT TO ASSERT A DISPUTE AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN YOU OR KMC MUST COMMENCE IT (BY DELIVERY OF WRITTEN NOTICE AS SET FORTH IN “FIRST STEP: INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION” OF THIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION) WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES, OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.
