We will review these before placing them on our marketing literature including our website and will only use your first name or an assumed name if you so wish. Should you wish for your testimonial to be removed please let us know using the contact details provided below.

Customer Experiences

We may also keep data to record the appreciation shown by a customer and their experiences. This is for internal purposes to enable us to check that we continue to provide an excellent service. If the record is initiated by us then we will anonymise it, using only first names.

Should the record be initiated as a result of a request or complaint by you then only essential information relating to the issue will be kept and in that event for no longer than [3] months unless you request otherwise. After [3] months we may retain information showing the fact of the request or complaint for training purposes but the information will be anonymised.

What we do with the information we gather

We take different types of information from you. Processing of anonymous data is either stored on your device and not accessed by us (e.g. cookies) or informs our statistical analysis on website and page use (e.g. traffic cookies, Google Analytics).

Processing of your personal information involves a number of different actions depending on why you have supplied us with information:

Storage

The information we hold about you may be stored outside the European Economic Area in order to process your data.

Initially your personal information is held securely by Autoweb. They would not normally view or use your personal information unless there is an issue with the use or security of holding your data.

In normal circumstances your information is held by (client name) for a maximum of [3] months or indefinitely if you have opted in or there is another basis for holding your data

Anonymous Tracking

We use anonymous tracking to:

  • to customise our website according to your preferences and tastes
  • to improve how we display information on our products and services on our website for your benefit and in keeping with your device
  • to administer our site and for internal operations, including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, statistical and survey purposes;
  • to allow you to participate in interactive features of our service, when you choose to do so;

  • to measure or understand the effectiveness of advertising we serve to you and others, and to deliver relevant advertising to you;
  • to make suggestions and recommendations to you and other users of our site about goods or services that may interest you or them.

Initial Response

We require your personal information to handle our initial response with you. To improve your customer experience, and based on feedback we receive, we may vary from time to time the types of information we ask for. Common types of information we ask for might include:

Location Data: we take your location details in order to inform you where we are located closest to you and how you can travel to us. This will also inform us of where your local dealer is and enable us to further handle your personal information accordingly.

Vehicle search: the data we compile from you relating to your vehicle searches enable us to provide you with immediate search results automatically generated. Further compilation of your data is likely to be done by your local dealer when reviewing an expression of interest by you in order to make further suggestions. Such further searches maybe intuitive rather than automated.

Brochure Requests: we take your name and address to accurately send to you our latest sales brochure.

Test Drives: we take your name and address to enable you to come and test drive one of our cars. In addition we may require you to supply beforehand information related to your lawfully being allowed to test drive one of our cars. We may need to hold this information for an extended period for legal reasons in order to deal with any complaints that arise from the test drive or to supply to our insurance company. Details other than your name and address will be kept differently.

Finance Application: we don’t take your personal financial details but direct you to a third party who will take a number of details concerning your financial status. We work closely with this third party but we are not the same company and you must assure yourself that you are content with their privacy policy.

Further Processing

Once information is received by us it is stored centrally. We then use location data to supply your local dealer with a copy of your contact details and other information relevant to your request in order for them to be in contact with you.

The personal information enables our dealer:

  • to operate the Livery Dole Ltd customer service and respond to your enquiry
  • for internal record keeping, to follow up your enquiry at times convenient to you. This may mean that your local dealer i) attempts multiple contacts with you to fulfil your requests for contact ii) holds your data for up to [3] months to answer any follow up discussed with you

After a period of 3 months your local dealer will delete your personal information from its local records.

Supplying your data to third parties

Where we must share your data for the purposes of providing you with the services you have requested we will use reasonable endeavours to put in place contractual and practical systems to protect your personal information securely. Further we will notify them of any preferences you have indicated concerning use of your personal data.

Future Marketing

  • depending on your consent we may periodically use your contact details to send you promotional emails or texts about new products, special offers or other information which we think you may find interesting using the contact details which you have provided
  • depending on your consent to contact you, using your contact details, for market research purposes
  • depending on your consent, supply of your contact details to third parties for use with related marketing messages

Your data will be initially held with Autoweb for up to 30 days from date of enquiry and then deleted. Marketing data is accessible separately from other information we might have relating to you.

Request for Deletion of information

If you have provided your consent to receive future marketing messages then we will hold this information until you indicate that you no longer wish to receive messages from us.

If you contact us to indicate that you no longer wish to receive messages from us we may store that indication centrally.

Contracts with you

In the event that such personal information is used to enter into contracts with you it will be transferred and it accuracy checked in that process. Should such data be used to assist in purchases made with you then that information may be held as part of our accounting records held by us for compliance purposes. Only data sufficient for these purposes will be held and this data will be held securely and is kept separately and only for the purposes of tax compliance.

Business Purchase or Sale

Facebook as an example of Social Media Integration

Livery Dole Ltd integrates with different social media to the benefit of communicating with you. In order to explain how some social media works we have set out below one example of how your data is used in this case by Facebook. Other social media use your data in different ways and you should review the privacy policy of each provider should you be concerned.

USA. Facebook is used to share activities on Facebook and to get Facebook information about Livery Dole Ltd users. An overview of Facebook integrations and social plugins can be found here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.

When users enable the Facebook connection in their settings, the Facebook integration establishes a connection between a user's device and the Facebook server. Thereby, Livery Dole Ltd receives information about the user.

When users invite friends via Facebook, the Facebook integration establishes a connection between a user's device and the Facebook server. That allows the user to gain information about his or her friends via Livery Dole Ltd. Livery Dole Ltd as the provider of Livery Dole Ltd does not receive any of this information.

When users share their information on Facebook and when they invite friends via Facebook, the Facebook integration establishes a connection between a user's device and the Facebook server. Thereby, the user links information on Livery Dole Ltd to his or her Facebook account. That allows Facebook to correlate a user's usage of Livery Dole Ltd with the corresponding user's Facebook account. Livery Dole Ltd as the provider of Livery Dole Ltd does not have any knowledge of the future data usage by Facebook. Users can find more information on that issue in the privacy policy of Facebook at: Facebook Privacy

Users have to actively enable the Facebook connection in their Settings in order to be able to share information on Facebook and invite friends via Facebook. If users do not want Facebook to gain information on their Livery Dole Ltd usage or if they don't want Livery Dole Ltd to gain information about them via Facebook, they should leave the Facebook integration disabled as it is in the default settings. Once enabled, users can disable the Facebook connection again in their Settings at any time.

By activating the Facebook connection in his or her settings, the user explicitly consents to the information exchange described in this section. Any data arising from the use of Facebook will be located outside the EEA and subject to transmissions between the EEA and elsewhere.

Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the financial conduct authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Motachase Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes International Motors Finance. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to International Motors Finance, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to be make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and International Motors Finance also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
