Information you provide when you place an advertisement on the Website

As part of the advert placement process on the Website, we collect your name, telephone number, email address and address and postcode, as well as details of the vehicle you wish to sell, payment details (please see below) and your IP address.

• We use your name and email address to place your advert, confirm that your advert has been published and send you service communications about your advert. We will only use your information for marketing purposes where you have given us specific consent.

• Unless you have specified to use the ‘Privacy Upgrade’, your phone number and email address will be posted within your advert on the website.

• We use your county to provide a positioning of the vehicle you advertise within our database, this allows potential buyers to locate vehicles for sale within a set radius of their chosen location.

• Vehicle Registration Numbers, if applicable, are required to place an advert on the Website for regulatory and security purposes. We will not disclose the Vehicle Registration Number to any person carrying out vehicle searches on the Website. However, if the Vehicle Registration Number is displayed in photographs within your advert then these details may be visible to Website visitors who may use them without your authorisation.

• If your advert expires we will contact you via phone or email to give you the option to rebook your advert.

• We may also use the information you provide for internal business records and purposes, including to analyse and develop our products and services and the Website.

When placing a free advert without the privacy upgrade, you acknowledge that we are unable to protect your privacy and you are happy for your contact details to appear on the website.

We use certain upgrade features in our advert placement process to protect the privacy of our customers when they are communicating with potential buyers via phone or email.

• For customers placing a 'Professional Service' advert, we apply a Protect Your Details facility when customers provide their phone number and email address. Protect Your Details enables you to keep your telephone number and email private by providing you with a substitute telephone number and email address to use in your advert. When interested parties make contact using substitute details, they are put in contact directly with our team. We use this to disable any potential harmful links that may expose you to fraudulent activity. We reserve the right to monitor and retain all communications via the email service for security monitoring purposes. Once an interested party has contacted us in response to your advert, we will then forward interested parties with your contact telephone number and email address via a private email. By opting into this facility you consent to us sharing your contact details with those who respond to your advert.

Please be aware that if you choose not to use this facility, your telephone number and email address will be visible within your advert on the website.
