2. Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you interact with us.

When you submit a contact, vehicle-sourcing, brokerage, luxury-vehicle, or auto-parts request, we may collect:

• Messages, instructions, and other transaction-related information
• Records of communications with us

Please do not send government identification, financial-account information, payment-card information, or other highly sensitive information through a general website form unless AutoLantic specifically requests it through an appropriate method for a legitimate transaction purpose.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the website, our hosting, security, analytics, or technical service providers may automatically collect limited information such as:

• Internet Protocol address
• Browser type and device information
• Operating system
• Referring and visited pages
• Date and time of access
• General location derived from an IP address
• Cookies and similar technical identifiers
• Security, diagnostic, and error-log information

We use this information to operate, secure, diagnose, and improve the website.

3. How We Use Information

AutoLantic may use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries
• Understand your vehicle or automotive-parts requirements
• Research suitable vehicles, parts, sellers, or suppliers
• Communicate with dealerships, auctions, private sellers, inspectors, transporters, shipping providers, and other relevant service providers
• Verify available vehicle, title, history, part, or seller information

• Prevent fraud, misuse, security incidents, or unlawful activity
• Comply with legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, or dispute-resolution obligations
• Improve our website, forms, services, and communications
• Send service-related communications

Where required by law, we rely on an appropriate legal basis, which may include your consent, steps requested before entering a transaction, performance of an agreement, compliance with legal obligations, or legitimate business interests that do not override applicable privacy rights.

4. Vehicle Information and Uploaded Files

A VIN or chassis number generally identifies a vehicle, but it may become personal information when connected with an identifiable customer or transaction. We use vehicle information to research compatibility, history, specifications, sourcing options, and related services.

Uploaded photographs and documents may contain personal information or embedded metadata. Before uploading a file, remove unrelated confidential information and location metadata where practical.

Submit only material that you are authorized to provide. Do not upload unlawful content or documents belonging to another person without appropriate permission.

5. How We Share Information

We may share information only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including with:

• Dealerships, auctions, private sellers, and automotive-parts suppliers
• Vehicle-history, inspection, verification, and diagnostic providers
• Inland transporters, freight forwarders, shipping lines, ports, warehouses, clearing agents, and logistics providers
• Website hosting, email-delivery, form-processing, security, backup, and technical-support providers
• Accountants, attorneys, insurers, consultants, and other professional advisers
• Payment or financial-service providers when used for an authorized transaction
• Government authorities, regulators, courts, law-enforcement agencies, or other parties when disclosure is required or permitted by law
• A purchaser, successor, or adviser involved in a proposed merger, sale, restructuring, financing, or transfer of all or part of our business

Third parties receive only the information reasonably needed to perform their role, subject to applicable agreements, professional duties, and legal requirements.

AutoLantic does not sell personal information for money. We do not knowingly use personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. If our practices change, we will update this policy and provide any legally required choices.

6. International Processing and Transfers

AutoLantic operates from the United States and serves customers who may be located in Nigeria and elsewhere. A sourcing or shipping request may require information to be processed or transferred across national borders.

Privacy and data-protection laws may differ between countries. Where applicable, we take reasonable steps to use appropriate safeguards and limit transfers to what is necessary for the requested service, legal compliance, or another lawful purpose.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

This website and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for:

• Website operation
• Security and fraud prevention
• Remembering preferences
• Form functionality
• Performance measurement
• Understanding general website usage

You may control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect how parts of the website function.

If we introduce nonessential advertising or analytics cookies that require consent, we will provide any notice and controls required by applicable law.

8. Embedded Content and Third-Party Links

Articles or pages may include links to, or embedded content from, third-party websites. Those websites may collect information, use cookies, or track interactions according to their own privacy practices.

AutoLantic does not control third-party websites and is not responsible for their privacy, security, accuracy, or content. Review the privacy policy of any external service before providing personal information.

9. Communications

We may use the contact information you provide to respond to inquiries, deliver requested estimates, discuss sourcing options, provide transaction updates, and send other service-related communications.

We will not send promotional email or text messages where consent is legally required unless the required consent has been obtained. You may ask us to stop nonessential promotional communications, but we may continue sending messages necessary to complete a requested service or transaction.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

• Respond to an inquiry
• Provide or complete requested services
• Maintain transaction and accounting records
• Resolve disputes
• Prevent fraud or abuse
• Enforce agreements
• Meet tax, legal, regulatory, insurance, or compliance obligations

Retention periods vary according to the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected. When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it.

11. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, email system, file transfer, or storage method is completely secure. You should use caution when transmitting information online and avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through ordinary email or general website forms.

12. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have the right to request:

• Confirmation of whether we process your personal information
• Access to or a copy of certain personal information
• Correction of inaccurate information
• Deletion of certain information
• Restriction of or objection to certain processing
• Withdrawal of consent where processing depends on consent
• Data portability where applicable
• Information about categories of data shared with third parties
• An appeal if an applicable privacy request is denied

These rights may be subject to identity verification, legal exceptions, record-retention requirements, transaction needs, and other lawful limitations.

Describe the information or action requested and provide enough detail for us to locate the relevant records. We may request additional information to verify your identity and protect your data from unauthorized disclosure.

If you believe a child has provided personal information through this website, contact us so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

14. Comments and Public Content

If commenting is enabled on any article, information submitted in a comment may become publicly visible. We may also collect technical information for moderation, security, and spam prevention.

Do not place private contact details, VINs, financial information, identity documents, or other sensitive information in a public comment.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
