Please take a moment to read this entire policy, and be assured that our continued commitment to the protection of your privacy is of the utmost importance.

Collection of Information


The purchase and or installation of some accessories or some modifications of a motor vehicle or the purchase of motor vehicles requires considerable accumulation of nonpublic personal information.

  • Information about your transactions with us, our affiliates or others; and,
  • Information we receive from a consumer-reporting agency.

We prohibit our employees and agents from giving information about you to anyone in a manner that would violate any applicable law or this privacy policy.

INFORMATION SHARING


We may disclose all of the information we collect, as described above, to our affiliates, affiliated third parties and non-affiliated third parties. We share information:
  • As permitted by law. For example, this may include a disclosure in connection with a subpoena or similar legal process, a fraud investigation, recording motor vehicle registration and other documents in public records, an audit or examination, or the sale of your account to another financial institution. This also includes transmitting new-vehicle purchase/lease information to the factory as required by law.
  • For purposes of processing a sale or lease transaction as you authorize or request, such as submitting information to third party financial institutions that may be requested to take an assignment of the contract or for verification of insurance coverage information. We may also disclose information to third party insurance agents to help you obtain insurance for your vehicle.
  • When using outside service providers to help us provide you with products and services such as insurance companies and companies that provide extended warranty or service contracts. This includes companies involved in joint marketing agreements. We also may use non-affiliated third parties to ensure that you receive timely maintenance reminders and other helpful notices for your new or used vehicle. Before providing information to our service providers, we enter into contractual agreements prohibiting them from disclosing or using the information other than for the purpose it was disclosed.
