Privacy Policy

Your Data Partner

At auto-api.com, we provide car marketplace data, not collect your personal data. Our mission is simple: help automotive businesses access car listing data through APIs without the legal, ethical, and technical complications of web scraping. This privacy policy explains our data practices and commitment to protecting your business information.

We collect only what's needed to deliver car data services.

What We Collect (And Why It's Minimal)

Essential Service Information Only

To provide car marketplace data services, we collect only these business essentials:

• Business contact details - Your company email and name for account management
• API authentication - Secure keys to protect your data access

Technical Information for Service Delivery

Systems automatically log minimal technical data to ensure reliable API performance:

• API request logs - For troubleshooting and optimizing response times
• Basic browser information - To ensure the dashboard works properly

What we DON'T collect: We don't track your browsing behavior, create marketing profiles, or collect any information unrelated to delivering car listing data services.

How We Protect Your Business Data

Security protects your car data business:

Our Security Investments

• End-to-end encryption - All API communications use TLS 1.3
• Isolated infrastructure - Your data stays separate from other clients
• Data backup systems - Encrypted, geographically distributed backups
• 24/7 monitoring - Real-time threat detection and response

Your Complete Control Over Data

Your car marketplace data belongs to you. We provide full transparency and control:

Usage Control: Pause, modify, or cancel your API access at any time

Why Automotive Businesses Trust Us

Legal and Ethical Alternative

Unlike web scraping solutions that put your business at legal risk, our car APIs provide:

• Reliable data flow - No blocked IPs, rate limits, or anti-bot measures
• Consistent formatting - Structured automotive data ready for your systems
• Business sustainability - Long-term data access

Industry Understanding

We understand car business needs: real-time inventory updates, pricing analysis, market research, and competitive intelligence. Our car data comes from publicly available car listings. We don't track private consumer behavior or personal information.

Data Sharing Policy

We never sell your business data. Your information is shared only when:

• You explicitly authorize it - Such as integrating with your preferred tools
• Essential service providers need it - Payment processors

Cookies: Essential Only

We use minimal cookies for essential functions only: keeping you logged in, remembering your dashboard preferences, and securing your session. No tracking, no advertising cookies, no third-party marketing tools. You can disable non-essential cookies in your browser without affecting the car API services.

Policy Updates

We'll notify you 30 days before any major privacy policy changes via email and dashboard notifications. Minor clarifications won't require notification. You'll always find the current version at auto-api.com/privacy-policy with change tracking.
