Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties. We may share your information under the following limited circumstances:

  • Service Providers: We share data with trusted third-party vendors who perform services on our behalf, such as website hosting, payment processing, appointment booking software, email delivery, and analytics tools. These vendors are contractually restricted from using your data for any purpose other than providing services to us.
  • Legal Compliance: We may disclose information if required to do so by law, subpoena, or government regulation, or to protect the safety, rights, and property of K3S Auto Repair and our customers.
SMS / Text Messaging Consent Privacy: Phone numbers collected for the purpose of receiving SMS/text message alerts, updates, or marketing consent will not be sold, rented, leased, or shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes under any circumstances.
Third-Party Advertising & Analytics (Cookies Opt-Out)

We utilize third-party advertising networks (including Google Ads and Meta Ads) and analytics services (such as Google Analytics 4) to monitor site usage and display targeted advertisements across the internet based on your past visits to our website.

Our website may also integrate with third-party service platforms that provide online appointment scheduling, customer communication tools, digital vehicle inspections, live chat, financing applications, or marketing automation services. When you interact with these embedded tools or pop-up forms, information you submit may be collected and processed directly by those service providers in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms of service.

You can manage or opt out of targeted tracking and behavioral advertising through the following industry resources:

United States Privacy Disclosures & State Rights

This section provides additional disclosures required under various US state privacy laws, including the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) as amended:

  • Do Not Track (DNT) Signals: Because there is no universally accepted standard for browser-based "Do Not Track" signals, our website does not currently alter its data collection practices or respond to DNT signals.
  • Shine the Light Law: We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
  • Your US Consumer Privacy Rights: Depending on your state of residence (e.g., California, Texas, Virginia, Colorado), you may have the right to:
    • Request access to and a copy of the specific pieces of personal data we have collected about you.
    • Request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
    • Request the deletion of your personal information, subject to certain legal exceptions (e.g., keeping records required to fulfill an active vehicle warranty).
    • Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising (Note: K3S Auto Repair does not engage in the sale or sharing of your data as defined under these statutes).
Canada Privacy Disclosures (PIPEDA Compliance)

This section applies to individuals residing in Canada, governed by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and equivalent provincial frameworks:

  • Consent: By providing your personal information to us, you consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Where required by law, we will obtain explicit, opt-in consent (such as for electronic marketing messages under Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation, or CASL).
  • Data Portability & Individual Access: You have the right to access, verify, and challenge the accuracy and completeness of the personal information we hold about you.
  • Cross-Border Data Transfers: Your data may be processed and stored on secure servers located within the United States. While residing outside of Canada, this data is subject to the local laws of the jurisdiction in which it is stored.
Data Security and Retention

We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and physical security measures to safeguard your personal data from unauthorized access, modification, or disclosure. However, no electronic transmission or digital storage method is 100% secure; therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the business purposes outlined in this policy, satisfy legal or accounting obligations, or resolve active customer disputes.

Children's Privacy

Our website and services are intended solely for adults and are not directed to individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we discover we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, we will purge it from our systems immediately.
