ChevyPartsDeal.com (the "Site"), which is operated by AutoPartsPrime.com, Inc. ("we", "us", or "our"), is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the methodology behind the methods used by us for the collection, handling, usage, and disclosure of any personal data available on the Site, as well as provides insight into the legal rights associated with this process.
"Personal information" refers to information that identifies, relates to, describes, or could reasonably be connected to you or your household. We collect this information based on your interactions with us and our site, and it may include:
We do not ask for any sensitive personal information that does not relate to orders, accounts, support, or legal requirements in the customer service process. Individuals should not submit health information, government account credentials, or any other sensitive material, unless it is specifically requested and determined to be necessary for a legitimate purpose.
We may collect, use, retain, and otherwise process personal information for the following business and operational purposes:
Personal information may be disclosed when reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy. Recipient categories may include:
We may use and disclose information that has been aggregated or de-identified, thus making it not reasonably linked to an individual. We do not attempt to re-identify information maintained as de-identified, except as permitted to test whether de-identification measures are effective.
Cookies and other technologies may be used by the Site for the purposes of ensuring proper service provision, remembering selections made by users, facilitating security features, performance metrics, understanding the way in which the Site is being navigated, and other tasks. Certain technologies are necessary for the Site to function, while others provide information for analytical, functional, or marketing purposes.
Browser settings may permit an individual to delete or block cookies. Disabling a necessary cookie may prevent account, cart, checkout, or security functions from operating correctly. Where required, additional cookie or privacy-choice controls may be presented through the Site.
Transactional messages concerning an order, account, security event, return, or requested service are not marketing communications and may be sent when necessary to complete the transaction or provide support. Marketing emails may be discontinued through the unsubscribe method included in the message. A preference request may require a reasonable period to take effect, and records may be retained to honor the preference.
ChevyPartsDeal.com does not sell personal information for monetary consideration. We do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, as "sharing" is defined by California law, and we do not process personal data for targeted advertising or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects, as those terms are defined by applicable comprehensive state privacy laws.
Disclosures to service providers, carriers, fulfillment participants, payment processors, and other parties necessary to provide a requested product or service are not treated as sales merely because information is transmitted to complete the transaction.
Residents of certain U.S. states may have one or more of the following rights, subject to the scope, definitions, exceptions, and verification requirements of the applicable law:
These rights are not absolute. We may deny or limit a request when an exception applies, when the request cannot be verified, when the information is not subject to the applicable law, or when retention is necessary for transaction completion, security, legal compliance, recordkeeping, warranty, fraud prevention, or another permitted purpose.
For purposes of the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, the categories described in Section 1 generally correspond to identifiers, commercial information, internet or electronic-network activity, approximate geolocation, customer records, and inferences. We collect these categories from the sources described in Section 2, use them for the purposes described in Section 3, and disclose them to the recipient categories described in Section 4.
California residents may request access to categories or specific pieces of personal information, deletion, correction, and information concerning collection and disclosure. They may also exercise any applicable opt-out or limitation right and may not be unlawfully discriminated against for submitting a request. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of consumers under sixteen years of age.
A privacy request may be submitted through the Privacy Request Form or through another available option identified on the form page. The request should state the right being exercised and provide sufficient information to identify the relevant consumer and records.
We generally respond to a verified request within 45 days. When permitted by law, the response period may be extended once for an additional 45 days if reasonably necessary, provided notice of the extension is given during the initial period. An appeal submitted under an applicable state law will generally be resolved within 45 days.
We use reasonable methods to verify that a request is submitted by the consumer to whom the information relates or by a properly authorized representative. Verification may involve matching information already maintained by us, confirming control of an account or communication channel, requesting transaction information, or obtaining signed authorization.
An authorized agent may be required to provide proof of authority, and the consumer may be asked to confirm the authorization directly. If a request is denied, the response will explain the basis to the extent required and will provide appeal instructions when an appeal right applies. We will not request information that is disproportionate to the verification need.
We keep personal information for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose it was collected. The length of time may depend on the type of information, the customer relationship, and our operational needs, as well as any applicable legal requirements.
For example, certain records may be retained in order to properly process and document transactions, provide customer service, administer warranties, meet tax and accounting requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, or enforce our agreements.
Once the information is no longer needed, it may be deleted, stripped of identifying details, and combined with other data, or disposed of in another appropriate manner, subject to our procedures and applicable law.
We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information in light of its nature, volume, and use. Measures may include access controls, encryption in transit, logging, vendor controls, authentication, monitoring, and employee procedures. No website, network, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and individuals should use unique credentials and protect access to their accounts and devices.
This Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under thirteen without legally valid authorization. If it is discovered that such information was collected inappropriately, all reasonable steps will be taken to delete it or otherwise address the issue.
This Site may link to carriers, payment providers, manufacturers, social platforms, or other third-party services. A third party maintains its own privacy, security, and data-handling practices. We do not control and are not responsible for their websites, content, policies, or activities. Individuals should review applicable privacy notices and terms of a third party before providing personal information.
This Privacy Policy is subject to revision at any time to reflect any changes in law, technology, services, vendors, or business practices. The revised version will display a new "Last Updated" date. Material changes may also be communicated through the Site or another appropriate channel when required. Continued use of the Site after an update is subject to the revised policy to the extent permitted by law.
