Thank you for using the Central Hudson mobile app and reviewing our privacy policy. Central Hudson is committed to your privacy and security.
Central Hudson has created this privacy statement to help you understand how we collect and use information when you use our mobile app:
How We Protect Your Privacy
Personally identifiable information that you voluntarily submit ("customer information") is used solely for Central Hudson’s purposes. We do not sell or otherwise share customer lists, and will not disclose your customer information to third parties that may want to market products or services to you. We may, however, need to share specific information with third-party business partners or contractors when that information is required in order to answer your inquiry, to fulfill your request for a product or service, or to otherwise conduct our business with you, including the collection of payment from you.
In addition, though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law or to comply with a judicial proceeding, a subpoena, a court order, or other legal process.
Central Hudson has implemented policy guidelines and security features to access specific customer-account information and to help safeguard customer-specific account information from unauthorized access or improper use.
Information We Gather When You Use Our Mobile App
Central Hudson uses software to automatically collect non-personal information about your visit for statistical purposes. This information, such as the name of the device from which you access our mobile app, the date and time you access our mobile app, and the information you view while visiting our mobile app, is used to measure the use of our app, to improve its content, and to diagnose and correct technical problems.
Central Hudson gathers and uses customer information in order to inform you of products and services, for billing purposes, and to resolve problems. Correspondence that you send, including e-mail, or forms you fill out to request products, services, or information, may require personal information such as your account number, home or business address, e-mail address, telephone number, or other specific information. We use this information to respond to your requests and to transact business with you.
Our mobile app may use "cookies" – small amounts of data that can send to you and that is stored on your device. Cookies allow our mobile app to provide you with customized information, or they may recall data so you don't have to retype it. We may use session ID cookies, which terminate when you close your mobile app, or persistent cookies, a small text file stored on your device's hard drive for an extended time. Persistent cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions.
Periodically, we administer online surveys to gather information about your use of energy and related products and services, or to obtain your views on the usefulness of our mobile app. Participation in our online surveys is voluntary. If you choose to participate, the information you provide will be used to improve our site and the products and services we offer to you.
