• Device Data and Online Activity Information, such as information collected by automated means as described in the Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies section below.
• Location Information, such as your geolocation, to the extent you have configured your device to permit us to collect such information.
• Commercial Information, such as information relating to your purchases and transactions at BP locations and other products or services obtained through the BPme loyalty program.
• Interests and Preferences, such as information provided when you use our Services.
• Online Account Information, such as social media information which we receive from third-party online services (for example, social media platforms) when you connect your use of our Services through their services.
• Communications and Interactions, such as any information you submit to us through our Site, the BPme app, or interactions with us, including through forms, surveys, registrations, emails, calls, comments, support tools, and other features on the Site or other communications.

We collect this personal information when you use our Services or interact with us, such as when you submit your information through the Services or communicate with us, or through automated means as described below. We also obtain your personal information from other sources, including our affiliates and subsidiaries, our partners, our vendors, third-party online services, and social media platforms. In addition, we may obtain other personal information about you in ways that we describe at the time of collection.

To the extent we process deidentified information, we will maintain and use the information in deidentified form and will not attempt to reidentify the information unless otherwise done for the purposes identified in this Privacy Statement or permitted by applicable law.

We may use cookies, tags, and similar technologies to automatically collect information on our Services. These tracking technologies allow our technology providers to collect information including your IP address, your mobile device identifier, the type of internet browser you are using, operating system, referral URLs, date/time stamps, pages viewed, and simple keyword tags. Cookies or tags are bits of code that allow our technology partners to collect the information described above. We also use web pixels to analyze usage patterns on our Site. The use of pixels allows BP to record that a particular device, browser, or application has visited a particular webpage.

a. Cookies

Cookies are small web files that a site or its provider transfers to your device’s hard drive through your web browser that enables the site’s or provider’s system to recognize your browser and remember certain information.

Generally, we use first-party and third-party cookies for the following purposes: to make our Services function properly; to provide a secure browsing experience during your use of our Services; to collect passive information about your use of our Services; to measure how you interact with our marketing campaigns; to help us improve our Services; and to remember your preferences for your convenience.

We use the following types of cookies on our Services:

• Functional Cookies – These cookies are essential because they enable you to use our services and are required for basic site functionality. We also use functional cookies to remember your choices so we can tailor our Services to provide you with enhanced features and personalized content. We do not use functional cookies to target you with online marketing. These cookies cannot be disabled.
• Performance or Analytic Cookies – These cookies collect passive information about how you use our Services, including webpages you visit and links you click. We use the information collected by such cookies to improve and optimize our Services. We do not use these cookies to target you with online marketing. You can disable these cookies.
• Advertising or Targeting Cookies - These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases, selecting advertisements that are based on your interests. Our third-party advertising providers may use these cookies to build a profile of your interests and deliver relevant advertising on other sites. You may disable the use of these cookies as set forth below.

b. Other Tracking Technologies

To see how successfully our marketing campaigns or other Site goals are performing we sometimes use conversion pixels, which fire a short line of code to tell us when you have clicked on a particular button or reached a particular page (e.g., a thank you page once you have completed the procedure for subscribing to one of our services or have completed one of our forms). We also use web pixels to analyze usage patterns on our Site. The use of pixels allows BP to record that a particular device, browser, or application has visited a particular webpage. As described above, we may share your personal information by allowing these third-party ad and analytics services to collect personal information via automated technologies on our Services for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes. The sharing also may be considered a “sale” or processing of personal information for targeted advertising under applicable law. Depending on where you reside, you may have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information or processing of your personal information for targeted advertising. Please see the “Your Choices and Rights” section below for additional information on the rights to opt-out of this disclosure of your information. We do not sell your personal information in exchange for monetary compensation.

c. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on whether you would like to manage a first-party or third-party cookie, you will need to take the following steps:

• First-Party Cookies. You can use the browser with which you are viewing this Site to enable, disable, or delete cookies. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located within the “Help” “Tools” or “Edit” settings). Please note, if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access secure areas of the Site. Also, if you disable cookies, other parts of the Services may not work properly. You can find more information about how to change your browser cookie settings at http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
• Mobile Advertising: Certain device manufacturers may require your consent to allow the BP App to track your browsing activities in order to serve you ads for customized discounts and offers. You can opt in to allow your device to be tracked by following the prompts on your device. Opting in enables us to have our service providers serve you with relevant ads for customized discounts and offers. You can also opt out of having your mobile advertising identifiers used for certain types of advertising by accessing the settings in your mobile device and following the instructions. If you opt-out, we will remove all data about you and will not collect any further data. The random ID previously assigned to you will be removed. Thus, if at a later stage, you decide to opt-in, we may be unable to continue and track you using your prior ID and you may, for all practical purposes, be considered a new user.
• Third-Party Cookies. To opt-out of third-party advertising networks and similar entities that use advertising cookies, go to http://www.aboutads.info/choices. Once you click the link you may choose to opt-out of such advertising from all participating advertising companies or only advertising provided by specific advertising entities.

As part of this, we can show or send you tailored BP offers and advertisements when you are browsing the internet using cookies. Please visit section 2 of this Privacy Statement to find out more about our cookie usage.
  • To Conduct Customer Research and Surveys – We will use your BPme Rewards data to send you invitations by email to participate in voluntary surveys so that we can improve the BPme Rewards program, our offers, and customer communications.

The BPme Rewards Program (the “Program”) offer members of the Program certain benefits in connection with their disclosure of personal information to bp. Such benefits may include offers such as BPme Rewards, Price Match, ScoreCard Rewards, credit card offers, or grocery rewards.

To participate in the Program, we require your first and last name, email address and phone number. When you register through the App, you also may provide a credit card number, debit card number or other financial information. We also collect the categories of personal information mentioned in Sections 1 and 11(a) above in connection with your participation in the Services.

Subject to certain restrictions, the Program offers members 5 cents off per gallon on every fuel purchased at participating bp and Amoco fuel stations. Additionally, members can participate in the subscription-based Price Match offer and receive the lowest price fuel of nearby gas stations up to a maximum discount of 5 cents per gallon. Members may also link their ScoreCard Rewards card and receive additional savings. Members may also receive credit card offers from bp’s co-branded credit card partner. Occasionally, BPme members receive additional savings, discounts, exclusive pricing and promotional offers provided as part of the Program. In addition, we may send members marketing and promotional communications by email, phone or through our App. For more information on the terms of the Program, please see the BPme Rewards Terms and Conditions, available here.

During registration, you must first consent to the BPme Rewards Terms and Conditions and create an account on our Site or App. You may withdraw from the Program at any time by accessing the deletion option in the App.

The Program offers certain financial incentives (including additional savings, discounts, exclusive pricing, and promotional offers) in exchange for the collection, retention, and the potential sale and sharing of the personal information we require for your participation in the Program. The savings, discounts, exclusive pricing, and promotional offers for members offered in connection with the Program, are reasonably related to our good faith estimate of the value provided to bp by your personal information. We estimate that the value to bp of the personal information you provided to facilitate participation in the Program is reasonably related to the financial incentives less the expenses related to offering these financial incentives.

This personal data is necessary for us to offers members of the Program certain benefits in connection with their disclosure of personal information to bp. Such benefits may include offers such as BPme Rewards, Price Match, ScoreCard Rewards, credit card offers, or grocery rewards. If you request deletion of your personal data, we will not be able to offer you such benefits, because the savings, discounts, exclusive pricing, and promotional offers for members offered in connection with the Program, are reasonably related to our good faith estimate of the value provided to bp by your personal information. We do not require Sensitive Data for participation in the Program or for you to receive benefits from the Program.

Please review “Collection, Use, and Sharing of Personal Data” above to learn more about the categories of personal data collected through the Program that will be sold or processed for targeted advertising and the categories of third parties that will receive your personal data.
