Privacy Policy

[TEMPLATE — have an attorney review before launch.]

Habibi Motorcars ("we," "us") operates habibimotorcars.com. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

• Information you provide: name, phone number, email address, ZIP code, vehicle preferences, trade-in details, and quote information you submit through our forms, by phone, or by text.
• Credit application information: collected only through secure lender application channels once you choose to apply — never through standard website contact forms.
• Automatic information: standard web log data such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring pages, collected through our hosting provider and any analytics tools we use.

How We Use It

• To respond to quote requests and provide brokerage services.
• To submit credit applications to lenders at your request.
• To communicate with you about your deal by phone, email, or text.
• To improve our website and services.

What We Don't Do

• We do not sell your personal information.
• We do not share your information with third parties except as needed to complete your transaction (dealerships, lenders, DMV services) or as required by law.
• We do not send marketing texts without your consent, and you can opt out at any time by replying STOP.

SMS / Text Messaging & Mobile Information

We offer two kinds of text messaging:

• Transactional / conversational texts about your application, quote, or delivery — sent when you submit our application and agree to be contacted, when you text us first, or when we return a missed call by text.
• Marketing texts (such as lease specials) — sent only if you check the optional marketing-texts box on our application. Consent to marketing texts is never a condition of purchase.

Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to opt out, or HELP (or call (949) 775-3705) for help.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All other categories of sharing described in this policy exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Your California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, request its deletion, and opt out of any sale of personal information (we don't sell it). To exercise these rights, contact us at (949) 775-3705. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

Data Retention & Security

We keep transaction records as required by law and licensing regulations, and delete or anonymize lead information that doesn't result in a transaction within a reasonable period. We use commercially reasonable safeguards to protect your information in transit and at rest.

Cookies & Analytics

[Update this section to reflect the analytics tools you actually install — e.g., Google Analytics — and link opt-outs accordingly.]
