Privacy Policy

Information you give us directly:

• Contact details — name, email address, phone number, ZIP code or address
• Vehicle information — make, model, year, VIN, condition, mileage, when you request a part or a sell-my-car quote
• Part requests — the specific part, vehicle fitment, and any notes you provide
• Messages you send to us through contact forms or customer support

Information collected automatically:

• Device and browser type, IP address, general location (city/region level)
• Pages visited, search queries entered, links clicked, and time spent on the Site
• Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 6)

Information from other sources:

Junkyards, part sellers, or vehicle buyers you choose to connect with through the Site may share limited information back with us (e.g., that a transaction was completed) to help us maintain accurate listings.

We use the information we collect to:

• Match you with junkyards that have the part you searched for
• Connect you with buyers for a vehicle-sale quote
• Communicate with you about your request, quote, or account
• Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site and Services
• Analyze usage trends so we can improve search accuracy and site performance
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service
• Detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, abuse, or security incidents

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes. This is a firm commitment, not a default you need to opt out of.

We share information only in the following limited circumstances, and only as needed to provide the Services you requested:

• With junkyards or buyers you're matched with. When you request a part or a vehicle quote, we share the details necessary to fulfill that specific request (e.g., your contact info, vehicle details, or part request) with the relevant yard(s) or buyer(s) so they can respond to you directly.
• With service providers who support our operations (e.g., hosting, analytics, customer support tools), under contractual obligations that restrict them from using your data for anything other than providing services to us.
• For legal reasons, if required by law, subpoena, or court order, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of JunkyPal, our users, or the public.
• In a business transfer, such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets — in which case we will notify you and this Policy will continue to govern your information unless you're told otherwise.
• With your consent, for any other purpose we disclose to you at the time you provide the information.

We do not share your data with data brokers, ad networks, or any third party for behavioral advertising or resale.

We retain your information for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, including maintaining records of your requests and quotes, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• Delete your personal information, subject to certain legal exceptions
• Opt out of non-essential communications (e.g., unsubscribe from emails)
• Object to or restrict certain processing of your data
• Data portability — receive a copy of your data in a portable format
• Know what categories of data we've collected, used, and disclosed (available to California residents under the CCPA/CPRA)

We do not sell or "share" personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA, so there is no sale/share opt-out required — there's nothing being sold or shared for cross-context behavioral advertising.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@junkypal.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Keep the Site functioning properly (essential cookies)
• Remember your preferences and prior searches
• Understand how visitors use the Site (analytics cookies)

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may limit some Site functionality. We do not use cookies to sell your data or share it with ad networks for third-party advertising.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The Services are not directed to individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn we've collected information from a child under 18, we will delete it promptly.

The Site may contain links to junkyard, buyer, or other third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing them information.

If you access the Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in accordance with the laws of your country. By using the Services, you consent to this transfer.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new "Last Updated" date, and where required by law, we will provide additional notice of material changes.
