QS Security Services, LLC (“QS Security Services,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy.
This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes the Personal Information we may collect about you, how we use and disclose that information, and the choices you can make about how we collect and use your information. Please also review the State Notices section below for additional privacy notices that apply to residents of certain states, and which govern in the event of a conflict with the general terms of this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy applies to your use of any of our online services (e.g., website, and certain marketing emails we send) that post a link to this Privacy Policy (“Service(s)”). As a condition of using our Service, you consent to our collection, processing, and transfer of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy and accept our Terms of Use. If you do not consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to our Terms of Use, you are not permitted to use our Service.
The data controller of any Personal Information provided to or gathered by the Service is QS Security Services. QS Security Services is located at 4111 Bridgeway Avenue, Columbus, Ohio 43219. You may contact us at the above address c/o Legal Department, by completing this form or at NJUS-DataProtectionOfficer@netjets.com.
When you use the Service, we collect and process different types of information from you. This may include Personal Information that you provide directly to us or that we collect automatically. “Personal Information” is information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, to you. Personal Information does not include information that is publicly available, de-identified, or aggregated.
Certain information, such as IP address, device identifier, browser type, operating system, information about your use of the Service, and data regarding network-connected hardware, including geolocation (“Usage Information”) is collected automatically when you visit the Service.
Personal Information that you provide directly to us via the Service may include the following:
The methods that may be used to collect Usage Information on the Service include cookies, web beacons (also known as “tracking pixels”), embedded scripts, location-identifying technologies, in-app tracking methods, and other device and activity monitoring tools (“Tracking Technologies”).
COOKIES. Cookies are small text files a website uses to recognize users and are typically placed on your device by a web server. Cookies contain information that can later be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you or that, in some cases, can be read by a third-party domain. More information about how QS Security Services uses cookies, and your choices for limiting cookies can be found in the preferences center located in the website’s footer.
WEB BEACONS (“TRACKING PIXELS”). Web beacons are small graphic images, also known as “Internet tags” or “clear gifs,” embedded in webpages and email messages. Web beacons may be used, without limitation, to count the number of visitors to the Service, to monitor how users navigate the Service, and to count advertising and content views.
EMBEDDED SCRIPTS. An embedded script is programming code designed to collect information about your interactions with the Service. It is temporarily downloaded onto your computer from our web server, or from a third party with which we work and is active only while you are connected to the Service and deleted or deactivated thereafter.
DEVICE AND ACTIVITY MONITORING. Technologies that monitor, and may record, certain of your interactions with the Service and/or collect and analyze information from your device, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts, and other data, for purposes such as identification, security, fraud prevention, troubleshooting, tracking and/or improving the Service and customizing or optimizing your experience on the Service.
We may engage and work with service providers and third parties to serve advertisements on the Service and/or on other online services. Some of these ads may be tailored to your interests based on your browsing of the Service and elsewhere on the Internet, sometimes referred to as “interest-based advertising” and “online behavioral advertising” (“Interest-based Advertising”), which may include sending you an ad on another online service after you have left the Service (i.e., “retargeting”).
When you request information from QS Security Services, the Personal Information you provide will be used for our legitimate business interests, including for the following purposes:
We will keep your Personal Information for only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy or as long as required by law. If you have specific questions about data retention, you can contact us as outlined above.
TRANSFERS TO QS SECURITY SERVICES AFFILIATES. We may transfer information, including your Personal Information, to subsidiary and affiliated companies of QS Security Services, located inside and/or outside the United States.
TRANSFERS TO SERVICE PROVIDERS. We may engage other companies and individuals, located inside and/or outside the United States, to perform functions on our behalf, subject to our policies and practices for the reasonable protection of your Personal Information. Without limitation, these service providers may provide us with the following types of services:
FOR LEGAL REASONS. For example, at the request of regulatory or law enforcement authorities, in response to a subpoena, warrant or other legal process and to protect our rights and the rights or safety of others.
CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS. In connection with or during negotiations of any proposed or actual financing of our business, or merger, purchase, sale, joint venture, or any other type of acquisition or business combination of all or any portion of our assets, or transfer of all or a portion of our business to another company, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding.
OTHER. In addition to the purposes described above, your Personal Information may be shared with or accessed by third parties for any of the purposes of use described in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise disclosed to you by separate notice.
EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS. You may unsubscribe from our marketing email communications by clicking the “unsubscribe” link found in every commercial email we send, or by sending a request to unsubscribe to netjets.marketing@netjets.com.
DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS. Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many online services, we currently do not alter our practices when we receive a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser.
COOKIES. Our Service offers a cookie preference center located in the website’s footer that allows you to exercise your choices on these technologies. Cookies may also generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Browsers offer different functionalities and options, so you may need to set them separately. Please review your browser’s Help menu for instructions, or visit www.allaboutcookies.org for more information. Please note that if you disable all cookies, some features of our Service may not function.
ANALYTICS AND ADVERTISING TECHNOLOGIES. QS Security Services utilizes third-party analytics applications like Adobe Analytics to measure and analyze the behavior of visitors on the Service, as well as traffic patterns. You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Adobe Analytics by going to http://www.adobe.com/privacy/opt-out.html under the section labeled “Tell our customers not to measure your use of their web sites or tailor their online ads for you.”
You may choose not to receive some Interest-based Advertising by submitting opt-outs. Some of the advertisers and service providers that perform advertising-related services for us and third parties may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices regarding Interest-based Advertising, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/.
Some of these companies may also be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your opt-out options for their members, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Please be aware that opting out only means that those selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based Advertising to you but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks).
Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different device or web browser, your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may not, or may no longer, be effective.
QS Security Services is not responsible for the effectiveness of any third parties’ opt-out options or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.
We take commercially reasonable and appropriate administrative, physical, and technical measures to protect your Personal Information from loss, theft, misuse, manipulation, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, transmission via the internet is not completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information collected through the Service. If you suspect any unauthorized activity associated with your account, please report that activity to us immediately.
The QS Security Services Service is intended for use by adults over the age of 16. Although it may be necessary under some circumstance for us to collect and retain information about children related to their travel on QS Security Services aircraft—e.g., when federal aviation security regulations require us to do so—children are strictly prohibited from using our online Services.
CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS.

NEVADA PRIVACY RIGHTS.
Although QS Security Services does not “sell” “covered information” of Nevada “consumers” as those terms are defined by Chapter 603A of the Nevada Revised Statutes, you may contact us at NJUS-DataProtectionOfficer@netjets.com to register an email contact address for us to provide you notice in the event we should do so in the future, at which point you will have an opportunity to be verified and exercise your opt-out rights under that law. Contact us in the same manner to update your contact email for notices. Changing your email elsewhere (e.g., informational requests, account information, etc.) will not update your Nevada notice contact information. It is your responsibility to keep your notice contact information current.
This Privacy Policy is directed to residents of the United States. If you access our Service from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, and that the data protection and other laws of the United States may not be as comprehensive as those in your country. Your use of the Service, or provision of any information through the Service, constitutes your consent to the transfer to and from, processing, usage, sharing, and storage of your information, including personal data, in the US as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
We may change our Privacy Policy from time to time. Your use of our Service indicates your consent to the privacy policy posted at the time of use.
