Information collection, use, and sharing
We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We only have access to and collect information that you voluntarily give us. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.
We will use your information to respond to you regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request.
Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.
In addition to email and direct contact, this website collects information through the following:
- Contact form
- Financing application (including co-signer information when provided)
- Vehicle availability requests
- Test drive requests
- Sell / trade requests, including vehicle photos you choose to upload
- Special order (“Find My Car”) requests
- Document uploads submitted with a financing application
- WhatsApp, phone, and email contact you initiate
Financing information
A financing application may include your date of birth, Social Security Number, driver license or identification details, address, employment, income, and supporting documents such as identification and proof of income.
Financing information may need to be shared with lenders, financing partners, credit bureaus, identity verification services, or other authorized providers in order to evaluate an application. The specific recipients used by APAÜ Auto Sales have not been confirmed in this notice and are pending confirmation by APAÜ Auto Sales.
No credit inquiry is authorized by submitting the form alone. Credit authorization is a separate, clearly identified authorization that you must actively accept within the application.
Your access to and control over information
You may opt out of any future contacts from us at any time. You can do the following at any time by contacting us via the email address or phone number given on our website:
- See what data we have about you, if any.
- Change or correct any data we have about you.
- Have us delete any data we have about you.
- Express any concern you have about our use of your data.
Security
We take precautions to protect your information. The following measures are implemented on this website:
- Information submitted through this website is transmitted over an encrypted HTTPS/TLS connection.
- Documents uploaded with a financing application are stored in private storage. They are not published to any public address and cannot be retrieved without an authorized, authenticated staff account.
- Financing applications, applicant records, uploaded documents, consent records, and internal notes cannot be read by the public. Database access rules restrict reading these records to authenticated staff accounts.
- The administration area requires sign-in and an assigned staff role.
- The full Social Security Number provided in a financing application is not retained in our records; only the last four digits are stored, and they are displayed masked in the administration area.
