How We Collect Your Information
We collect your information in several ways:
From You. We collect certain Personal Information from you when you use our Services or website. The personal information that we collect may include your name, birth date or age, telephone number, and e-mail address. If you purchase Services from us, we may also request your credit card / debit card number or other financial information, along with billing information, so we can fulfill your order or request.
We do not require you to register or provide personal information to view our website or access much of its content, such as general information about our products or to view customer testimonials. However, you may be required to provide certain personal information, such as your full name, e-mail address, telephone number, and job title, to request a demonstration of or for more information about our Services.

These are discussed in detail below (See “What Information Do We Collect?” section below).
From Vehicle Service Providers. Various entities engaged in the purchasing and selling automobiles may use our Services to provide you with goods and services (each such entity, a “Vehicle Service Provider”). We typically are a data processor for these Vehicle Service Providers, which may include automotive companies and their providers, original equipment manufacturers (or “OEMs”), parts suppliers, dealers, service stations, and transportation service providers, such as rental car companies, ride-hailing companies and concierge services. Vehicle Service Providers may provide Dealer Pickup, LLC with personal information about you such as name, date of birth, vehicle purchases, vehicle preferences, vehicle service records, financial history (e.g., credit scores), as well as information regarding any individuals who may guarantee or purchase or apply to purchase a vehicle with you. When we use this information as a data controller, we use it to improve our products and to understand our Customers’ needs.
From a Device Associated with You or Your Household. You also passively provide us with information in other ways through technology. Some of this information may be linked to you personally. This information helps our websites and mobile services work correctly and supports our Customer marketing and analytical efforts to understand our Customers’ needs and to improve our products.
