1. HOW THIS POLICY APPLIES
This Policy applies to personal information we collect through our products and services, which include recreational vehicles (and their features, components, and systems, some of which may collect and transmit data), our websites, our social media pages which reference this Policy, online portals, and mobile applications. This Policy also applies to personal information we collect through interactions with you, through offline sources (such as sales and marketing efforts), and from third parties.

If you choose not to provide us with certain personal information, we may not be able to offer you products and services which utilize that information and/or the functionality and features of those products and services may be limited or inoperable.
2. WHEN THIS PRIVACY POLICY DOES NOT APPLY
This Policy does not apply to any Thor Company, product, or service which provides a separate privacy policy (except to the extent that separate policy incorporates this Policy).

We are not responsible for third-party privacy practices. Please consult each third party’s privacy policy for details about how that party collects and processes your personal information.
Note: We sell recreational vehicles through independent dealers which we do not own, operate, or control. Dealers are third parties and their privacy practices are subject to their own respective policies. We encourage dealers to comply with applicable privacy laws, but, to the extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for their privacy practices.
