All of the information we automatically capture provides us with the ability to enhance our customers’ search and shopping experiences and to determine aggregate information about our user base and usage patterns.

When you click on links and banners on our site that take you to third-party web sites (including, for example, Caterpillar sites which are not controlled by Milton Rents), you will be subject to the third parties’ privacy policies.

We use data collection devices such as cookies to deliver customized visitor experiences and to analyze website user metrics. Cookies are small files placed on your hard drive that assist us in providing our services. While you may configure your browser to reject cookies, due to the technology we use, cookies are required to register with and purchase products and services online from this website. Most cookies are session cookies, which means they are automatically deleted from your hard drive once you close your browser. You may encounter cookies or other data collection devices that are placed by third parties. We do not control the use of cookies by third parties.

How do we safeguard personal information?

We will strive to ensure that your personal information is adequately protected wherever it may be processed.
