DRAFT FOR REVIEW  •  Prepared October 1, 2026
Effective date: [TO CONFIRM BEFORE PUBLICATION]

Draft policy — data practices to verify

BUSINESS & PRIVACY REVIEW REQUIRED

This policy is a draft for [CONFIRM: FULL LEGAL ENTITY NAME], operating introwholesale.com. Confirm the actual data flows and legal requirements before making it effective.

[CONFIRM] Controller/business identity, contact address, active vendors, cookies and analytics, marketing practices, retention periods, international transfers, and the privacy laws that apply. Unverified practices are marked below; this draft does not assert that the business never sells or shares personal information.

1. Information we receive

Depending on the service you use, the information involved may include:

  • Contact and inquiry details: name, email address, phone number, preferred contact method, and information you provide in a service request.
  • Vehicle and asset information: VIN or other vehicle identifier, make, model, year, mileage, condition, ZIP code, and information returned by report or valuation providers.
  • Order and payment records: report requests, amount and currency, payment status, transaction or session references, and delivery records.
  • Technical information: IP address, browser or device information, access logs, and cookie or similar identifiers where collected by the website or its providers.

Sources may include you, vehicle-data providers, payment providers, and tools used to operate the site. Only submit information you are authorized to provide. Avoid including unnecessary identity documents, financial records, or payment-card details in messages.

[CONFIRM] This inventory against the deployed forms, plugin version, server logs, embedded services, and any offline collection. Identify optional versus required fields and whether records contain information about other people.

2. Why information is used

The proposed purposes are to respond to inquiries, provide requested estimates and services, retrieve vehicle information, process and reconcile orders, deliver reports, provide support, prevent misuse, and maintain records required by applicable law.

Choosing email, phone, or text as a preferred contact method does not by itself establish consent for every type of marketing. Any marketing use must match the notice and consent provided at collection and the available opt-out choices.

[CONFIRM] All actual purposes, any marketing or profiling, automated valuations and their consequences, and applicable legal bases where required. Do not reuse information for an undisclosed purpose merely because this draft lists possible activities.

3. Providers and other disclosures

Fulfilling a request may involve service providers for website hosting, vehicle data, payment processing, email delivery, support, and security. The current site identifies VINData and PayPal. These names do not establish which information each receives or its contractual role.

The report integration is designed to retain order and payment-status records. Payment-card handling and any payment-provider data collection must be verified against the active checkout configuration and the provider’s own privacy notice.

Information may also need to be disclosed in response to a valid legal requirement or to investigate fraud, protect rights, or complete a business transaction, subject to applicable law.

[CONFIRM] Every recipient and category of data shared; processor/service-provider contracts; independent-controller roles; affiliates; sale, targeted advertising, or cross-context sharing; and whether any other payment gateway is enabled. No claim of “no sale,” “no sharing,” or “no card storage” is made without verification.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies or similar technologies may support essential website functions, security, payment flows, preferences, analytics, or advertising. The active technologies and their purposes must be documented before this notice is published.

You can manage cookies in your browser. Disabling some cookies can affect website functions. Any site consent or opt-out control should describe the choices it actually implements.

[CONFIRM] A current cookie and tracker inventory, providers, purposes, lifetimes, essential versus optional classification, embedded media, consent requirements, and recognition of applicable browser opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control. Add working preference links if required; do not describe controls that are not installed.

5. Retention and security

Proposed retention approach: keep information only as needed for the disclosed purpose, required records, legitimate dispute handling, and other applicable legal obligations; then delete or de-identify it through an approved process.

Reports and order references can contain information about your transaction or vehicle. Keep report links private and avoid sharing them with unintended recipients. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

[CONFIRM] Actual retention periods or specific decision criteria for inquiries, vehicle reports, order/payment records, logs, and backups; deletion implementation; access restrictions; security safeguards; and incident procedures. This draft does not represent that unverified safeguards or deletion schedules are already operating.

6. Your choices and privacy requests

Depending on where you live and whether the relevant law applies to this business, you may have rights to access or obtain a copy of personal information, correct it, delete it, or opt out of certain processing. Rights, exceptions, and identity-verification requirements vary.

Use the contact details below to ask about information relating to you or to make a privacy request. Describe the request without sending payment-card numbers or unnecessary sensitive documents. A proportionate identity check may be needed before information is disclosed or changed.

For optional marketing messages, use an available unsubscribe or opt-out method. Necessary order and service communications may be handled separately.

[CONFIRM — LEGAL REVIEW] Applicable state and international laws, including Maryland requirements; the request and appeal process; response deadlines; authorized-agent requests; non-discrimination obligations; opt-out methods; and consent withdrawal. Add the appropriate regional disclosures after confirming scope and thresholds.

7. Children, locations and external websites

[CONFIRM] Intended audience and minimum customer age, whether information from children is collected, and the process for handling a parent or guardian’s request. Do not publish a “we do not knowingly collect” statement without checking the actual service and practices.

[CONFIRM] Where information is hosted, accessed, and processed, whether it is transferred internationally, and any required safeguards or notices. A business contact address does not establish where all data is processed.

External websites and independent services maintain their own privacy notices. Review those notices when following links or using their services.

8. Contact and policy updates

Current public business contact: sale@introwholesale.com · 202-596-7574 · Contact page. The site lists 2227 Bel Pre Rd, Unit #311, Silver Spring, MD 20906. [CONFIRM] The legal business name, mailing address for privacy requests, monitored privacy contact, and request escalation owner. The final policy should show an effective or last-updated date and explain how material changes are communicated. [CONFIRM] The notification process and any consent needed for materially different uses of previously collected information.
