AIMS Mobile Pay (AMP Park) Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 30, 2020; Updated November 10, 2023
EDC Corporation (“us,” “we,” or “our”) owns and operates the development of the AIMS Mobile Pay software application (the “App”). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information we receive from users of the App.
We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. While using the App, we collect specific information to provide and improve our services.
When you use the App, you voluntarily share certain information including your email address, tokenized payment, IP address, vehicle information, and parking pass history. When you make a parking payment transaction, we collect and store information related to the transaction, such as the parking location, date and time of purchase, transaction amount, and date and time of expiration. We do not collect any personal information beyond the items listed above (i.e. phone number, name, address). We log certain information for 90 days which includes your session id, browser id (if using the web version), ip address, and referrer (if using the web version). Logs are utilized for support and are purged after 90 days.
We collect and use your information solely for the purposes of supporting your parking transactions and the application. Specifically, we use this information for the following purposes:
We share your information with our university, municipal, and other parking operators with whom we have a contractual agreement in order to provide services to you. For example, if you utilize our app at one of our client’s sites, they will have access to your vehicle information, parking transaction information, and email address for parking enforcement and customer service purposes. By purchasing or reserving parking through the App, you understand and direct us to share your vehicle and parking transaction information with parking departments where our App is used.
We may share information with law enforcement agencies and/or the judicial system if required by law. We may also disclose information if we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation or legal request; or to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) requires us to disclose the categories of personal information we collect and how we use it, the categories of sources from whom we collect personal information, and the third parties with whom we share it, which we have explained above.
We are also required to communicate information about the rights California residents have under California law. California residents may exercise the following rights:
In addition, California residents have the right to request access to the personal information collected and stored within our App. You may contact us via one of the following methods:
To complete your request, you will be asked to provide additional information to verify your identity, such as the license plate number and your email address. We will compare the information you provide to any information we may have in our possession in order to verify your request. The information you provide must match the information we have in our possession. This measure is in place to help ensure that your personal information is not disclosed to any person who does not have the right to receive it. The information collected through this process will be used for verification purposes only.
If you would like to use an agent registered with the California Secretary of State to exercise your rights, we may request evidence that you have provided such agent with power of attorney or that the agent otherwise has valid written authority to submit requests to exercise rights on your behalf.

In performance of this Agreement, parties may directly or indirectly disclose confidential information, proprietary information, or confidential data (“Confidential Information”).
“Confidential Information” shall include any data and/or information that is identified by either party as confidential (either orally or in writing) or is of such a nature that a reasonable person would understand such information to be confidential, including, but not limited to: (1) personal information of customers, employees, students, and/or donors, including but not limited to, images, names, addresses, Social Security numbers, e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, financial profiles, credit card information, driver’s license numbers, medical data, law enforcement records, educational records or other information identifiable to a specific individual that relates to any of these types of information (“Personal Information”); (2) business methods, plans, and practices, financial data, or customers lists; (3) trade secrets, inventions, methodologies, research plans, products, product plans, patent applications, and other proprietary rights, and any specifications, tools, computer programs, source code, object code, documentation, or technical information; or (4) any other proprietary information or data the Disclosing Party maintains in confidence.

Each party agrees to use the Confidential Information received from the other party only as expressly permitted in this Agreement or when reasonably necessary to perform the party’s duties under this Agreement so long as such disclosure is in accordance with applicable law. To the extent permitted by law, neither party will disclose to any third party the other party’s Confidential Information, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the party, or as provided for in this Agreement and in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws; provided however, Vendor may disclose Personal Information of Client data to third party with the written consent of that Client. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may disclose the Confidential Information or portions thereof to their respective attorneys or accountants when seeking legal or financial advice.
Vendor specifically warrants and represents that except as otherwise permitted herein, it will not in any manner disclose, disseminate, copy, sell, resell, sublicense, transmit, assign, or otherwise make available any of Client’s Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written permission of Client, and further warrants and represents that it will take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that its authorized agents, employees, contractors or subcontractors having access to the Confidential Information shall not copy, disclose or transmit any of the Confidential Information, or any portion thereof, in any form, to a third party except as necessary to perform the Services under the Agreement.
Vendor warrants and represents that it will implement the necessary industry-standard physical, electronic, and managerial safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Client Confidential Information, including but not limited to, the environment in which the Confidential Information is stored, processed, and transmitted.

Vendor will report to Client any breach of security resulting in the unauthorized disclosure, misappropriation or unauthorized access of Client Confidential Information (“Breach”). Vendor will promptly investigate any Breach affecting Client Confidential Information and take reasonable measures to identify the Breach’s root cause(s), mitigate its effects, and prevent a recurrence. Unless prohibited by law, Vendor will provide Client with a detailed description of the Breach, the type of data that was the subject of the incident, the identity of each affected person, and other information Client may reasonably request concerning the affected persons. The parties agree to coordinate in good faith on developing the content of any related public statements or any required notices for the affected persons.
