Privacy Policy

We collect information you voluntarily provide, including your name, email address, and (if you opt in to SMS) your mobile number. We also collect limited technical information automatically, including IP address, browser type, device type, referring URL, and pages visited, through standard server logs and privacy-respecting analytics.

We use the information we collect to:

• Deliver the educational content you have requested, including SMS messages where you have opted in.
• Respond to inquiries submitted through our contact form.
• Improve our site, content, and user experience.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Use.

When you opt in to receive SMS messages, your mobile number and consent record are stored solely to deliver the messages you requested and to honor opt-out requests.

We do not sell, share, rent, or transfer mobile numbers, consent data, or any other personal information to insurance carriers, agents, brokers, marketing affiliates, or lead aggregators under any circumstance. SMS opt-in data is not used for marketing by third parties. Mobile information will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

We use a minimal set of cookies and privacy-respecting analytics to understand how the site is used. You can configure your browser to refuse cookies; some site features may not function as expected if you do.

We share information only with service providers that help us operate the site and deliver SMS messages, under written agreements that restrict their use of the data. We may disclose information when required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of AutoCare Notes, our users, or others.

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. Opt-out records are retained indefinitely so we can honor your request.

You may unsubscribe from SMS at any time by replying STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, END, or QUIT to any message. You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by emailing care@autocarenotes.com. Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws, including the right to opt out of certain processing.

AutoCare Notes is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
