Privacy policy.

Last updated May 15, 2026

§ 01

What we collect

  • Email address — collected by Stripe at checkout, used to deliver the report link and related transactional messages
  • License plate or VIN you submit, plus the resulting vehicle data
  • Lookup metadata — IP address, user agent, timestamp
  • Anonymous analytics — pages visited, events, browser type — via Google Analytics 4 (through Google Tag Manager) and a Meta Pixel
  • Error diagnostics — captured by Sentry when the site crashes
§ 02

Why we collect it

  • Email — deliver the paid report and respond to support requests
  • VIN / plate + vehicle data — generate, store, and re-deliver your report
  • Analytics — understand which pages convert and improve the site
  • Errors — fix bugs faster than waiting for users to report them
§ 03

Categories of recipients

We share data only with service providers that help us deliver, secure, and improve the service. Categories include:

  • Payment processing
  • Hosting and database infrastructure
  • Transactional email delivery
  • Web analytics and advertising measurement
  • Error monitoring and diagnostics
  • Vehicle data sources — federal databases (e.g., NHTSA) and licensed commercial providers

Each provider operates under its own privacy policy. We provide the specific list on request. We do not sell your personal information.

§ 04

How long we keep it

  • Free preview lookups — 7 days
  • Paid reports + the email used at checkout — 90 days
  • Anonymous analytics — per provider retention (typically 14 months in GA4)
  • Stripe payment records— Stripe retains transaction records under their own terms; we don't control this
§ 05

Cookies and tracking

We use cookies for basic site function and for analytics via Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and a Meta Pixel. By using the site you accept these cookies. To opt out:

  • Use your browser's cookie controls
  • Enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) — we honor the signal where supported
  • Install Google Analytics Opt-out and similar browser extensions
§ 06

Your rights

To exercise the rights below, email us — see § 09.

  • Access — receive a copy of the data we hold about you
  • Deletion — request deletion of your data; we honor within 30 days, subject to legal retention requirements
  • Correction — request that we correct inaccurate data
  • Opt-out of sale— we don't sell personal data; the GPC signal confirms this

California residents have specific rights under the CCPA — the access, deletion, and opt-out procedures above apply.

§ 07

Children

This service is not directed at users under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children.

§ 08

Updates

We may update this policy. Material changes are reflected in the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
