Privacy Policy

Overview

CarByOwner ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website at car.byownerhub.com. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep this simple because we genuinely collect very little.

Information we collect

Analytics data. We use privacy-friendly analytics to understand which pages are popular and how visitors navigate the site. This may include your approximate geographic location (country/region), browser type, device type, and pages visited. We do not track individual users across sessions.

Bill of sale form data. If you use our bill of sale generator, the information you enter (names, vehicle details, sale price) is processed entirely in your browser. We do not store or transmit this data to our servers.

Contact inquiries. If you contact us by email, we retain your email address and message content only to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing lists without explicit consent.

Cookies

We use minimal cookies necessary for site functionality and analytics. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels. Third-party affiliate partners (CARFAX, Escrow.com, uShip, autopom!) may set their own cookies when you click their links — see each partner's privacy policy for details.

Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Clicking an affiliate link may cause the partner's tracking cookie to be set in your browser. We only include affiliate links for services we genuinely believe are useful for private car sellers. See our Affiliate Disclosure for full details.

Data sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We do not share your data with advertisers. The only circumstances under which we would disclose information are: (1) to comply with a legal obligation, or (2) to protect the rights or safety of our users or the public.

Third-party links

Our site contains links to external websites including state DMV portals and affiliate partner sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Children's privacy

CarByOwner is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy occasionally. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
