Privacy Policy

Home Privacy Policy

We want using BuySellCars.shop to feel like walking into a proper retail store for cars.
No clutter.
No funny business.
And that goes for how we handle your personal info too.

Here’s what we collect and why.

1. What We Collect (And What We Don’t)

a. Stuff You Share When You Sign Up

Your name
Email
Phone number
Location (so we can help you find nearby listings)
A password (safely stored and not in plain text, ever)

b. Car Listing Details

The usual stuff: make, model, year, price, mileage, condition
Any photos you upload
Any extra notes you add about the car or its features

c. What We Track While You Browse

Your IP address and device info (keeps the site running smoothly)
What filters you use
Which listings you like, save, or keep staring at for hours

d. Messages and Payments

Chats between buyers and sellers (we keep these safe and encrypted)
Payment details only for premium upgrades — and no, we don’t keep your card info

2. How We Use Your Info

To personalise your shopping experience
To keep your account safe and secure
To help you pick up where you left off
To help our support team solve problems faster
To send you deals only if you say yes

3. Who We Share It With (And Why)

We’re not in the business of selling your info.
But to keep the lights on, we do share some data with:

Hosting and tech providers (so the site works properly)
Analytics tools (to see what people are clicking on — all anonymous)
Payment processors (just what they need to complete a transaction)
Legal folks, if there’s ever a serious issue

Every partner we work with signs strict privacy agreements.

4. Cookies (No, Not The Edible Ones)

We use a few types of cookies:

Essential ones so you can stay logged in and finish what you started
Preference cookies to remember your settings like favourite brands
Analytics cookies to help us improve the site

You can turn off the non-essential ones in your browser, but some stuff might stop working right.

5. How Long We Keep Stuff

Your account and listings stay up while you’re active
If you leave? We’ll take your data off the site in 48 hours
And fully delete personal info within 60 days
Anonymous site data sticks around forever to help us improve

6. Your Choices

Edit your info: Log in any time to make changes
Delete your account: Just email us at privacy@buysellcars.shop
Opt out of emails: Hit the unsubscribe button in any promo email

7. How We Keep Things Safe

All personal and payment data is protected by secure encryption
We follow PCI rules for any payment-related stuff
Only a few trusted team members can access your info — and we check regularly for any gaps

8. Tools We Plug In

We might use tools from other companies like analytics dashboards or sharing buttons.
We don’t control what those tools do with your info.
Check their privacy policies before clicking yes on anything.

9. For the Grown-Ups Only

BuySellCars.shop is for people aged 18 or over.
If you’re under 18, sorry — no access.

10. Policy Changes

We’ll update this page when anything changes.
New tools. New laws. Whatever.
The latest date will always be listed at the top.
If you keep using the site, it means you’re okay with the updates.
