Under the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or equivalent laws, some countries may be deemed to not provide an adequate level of data protection for your personal data. When we transfer personal data outside of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we ensure that appropriate protections are in place. These protections may include a legal mechanism such as the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, which helps to ensure that the parties to whom we disclose your personal data uphold the same or similar standards of data protection as PACCAR.
If you are located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, PACCAR may act as the controller as defined under applicable law when processing personal data.
PACCAR’s legal basis for processing your personal data depends upon the specific context in which we collect or use it. In many cases, we will process your personal data based on our legitimate interests. These legitimate interests include operating our websites, managing our recruitment and marketing efforts, and providing our products and services. You have a right to object to processing on the basis of legitimate interests.
If consent is the legal basis, for example in certain situations when we send you marketing communications, we will obtain your consent and let you know how you can withdraw your consent.
Our other legal bases for processing include contractual and legal obligations.
For additional details regarding our legal basis for processing, please refer to the privacy statement of PACCAR Holding B.V., which is located at https://www.daf.com/en/legal/privacy-statement.

The California Consumer Privacy Act or “CCPA” applies to the collection, use, and disclosure of “personal information” collected from California residents (as those terms are defined by the CCPA).
If you are a California resident, the CCPA requires us to disclose to you the categories of personal information we collect, our business and commercial purposes for collecting, using, sharing, or selling such personal information, the categories of sources from which we collect personal information, the categories of personal information we have disclosed, shared, or sold for a business or commercial purpose in the preceding 12 months, and the categories of third parties with whom we share personal information. We have provided these disclosures in this Statement, and below are additional details.
In the preceding twelve (12) months, the personal information that PACCAR has collected, which we describe in more detail above in the section What personal data do we collect, and how do we use it, fall into the following categories under the CCPA:
PACCAR may have collected the following categories of sensitive information in the preceding twelve (12) months:

We disclose personal information for business purposes to the following categories of third parties:
In the preceding twelve (12) months, we have not sold any personal information, including sensitive personal information.
PACCAR does not disclose your personal information to third parties for the purpose of cross-context behavioral advertising, but you may see PACCAR ads on third party websites and applications. PACCAR, however, has not shared, as that term is defined in the CCPA, your personal information including sensitive personal information with these or other parties in the preceding twelve (12) months.
Under the CCPA, you or an authorized agent acting on your behalf, may have the right to: (i) know information regarding the personal information PACCAR collects and request access to your personal information, (ii) know what personal information PACCAR sells or shares and to whom, (iii) request deletion of your personal information, (iv) request correction of inaccurate personal information, (v) opt out of the “sale” and/or “sharing” of your personal information (as those terms are defined by the CCPA), and (vi) not be discriminated against for opting out or exercising any of your rights under the CCPA. If you submit a request, we may ask you to provide certain information to compare against our records to verify your identity and respond to your requests. We will endeavor to respond to your requests within forty-five (45) days of receipt of your request, after proper verification, unless we need additional time, in which case we will let you know.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.
PACCAR provides special rewards, incentives, offers and benefits to customers and dealers who participate in our loyalty rewards programs, sweepstakes, incentive contests, or other similar promotional campaigns, or who sign up to receive communications from us via email, text, chat, and social media (collectively, the “Programs”). Information we request when individuals sign up may include your name, address, email address, phone number, type of phone, company name, company website, and your role or title. Because our Programs involve the collection of personal information, they might be interpreted as a “financial incentive” program under the CCPA.
Depending on the program, you may opt-in online by completing all questions and agreeing to the terms and conditions, through your employer, or by contacting the division of PACCAR offering the Program. You may withdraw from participating in a Program at any time by contacting us using the designated method set forth in the applicable Program disclosure or rules or by using the unsubscribe methods provided for that communication channel. You can find a full description of the terms and conditions within each applicable Program.
We generally do not treat consumers differently if they exercise a privacy right under California law. However, where you need to voluntarily provide the personal information requested to participate in the Program, we are offering you a benefit that is reasonably related to the value of your data to us in connection with the benefit. Our reasonable determination of the estimated value of the personal information you provide to us when you sign up for that benefit takes into consideration a number of factors, including, among other things, our estimates regarding the anticipated revenue generated from the personal information and the actual and anticipated expenses that we incur in the collection, storage, and use of such personal information in connection with our services.
PACCAR does not knowingly collect or sell any information from or about children under the age of sixteen. If you believe that we have received information of a child, please contact us at DataProtection@paccar.com.
