Privacy Policy

1. Who is responsible

Anthony Underwood Automotive, 4006 Bessemer Super Hwy, Bessemer, AL 35020. Contact us at [email protected] or .

2. What we collect

Account information: name, email, phone, address and location, business details if you register a company, and a password hash — never the password itself.

Identity verification: the driver license or government ID you upload for bidder approval and fraud prevention.

Transaction data: bids, offers, purchases, payment status, correspondence and support history.

Usage data: IP address, browser details, pages visited and how you arrived (for example the campaign link you clicked), from server logs and analytics.

Enquiries: what you send through the contact, report, reminder and transport forms.

3. What we use it for

• Creating and managing bidder accounts
• Verifying identity, reducing fraud and enforcing auction rules
• Processing bids, payments and after-sale support
• Messages about your account and activity, such as approvals, auction results, invoices and reminders you asked for
• Measuring and improving the website and our advertising
• Meeting legal, tax and record-keeping obligations

We do not sell personal data.

4. Identity documents

ID images are stored outside the public part of the website. Access is limited to staff who need them to verify an account or investigate fraud, and each view is logged. We keep them for as long as the account and applicable rules require.

5. Cookies and advertising

Essential cookies keep you signed in and protect forms. Where enabled, we also use analytics and advertising tools (such as Meta Pixel and Google Analytics) to measure visits and enquiries. You can block cookies in your browser, but sign-in and bidding will not work without the essential ones.

6. Who else handles your data

• Email providers, for messages we send you
• Hosting and backup providers
• Analytics and advertising platforms, where enabled
• Transport and payment partners, only as needed to complete your purchase

The Google rating shown on this site is the public figure from our Google Business Profile.

7. Retention and deletion

Account data is kept while the account is active. You can ask us to delete it; we will, except where transaction, identity, tax or legal records must be kept. Contact us to make a request.

8. Security

The site uses HTTPS and passwords are stored only as salted hashes. No system is perfectly secure, so use a strong, unique password and tell us promptly if you see anything odd on your account.

9. Your choices

Depending on where you live you may be able to ask for access to, correction of or deletion of your data. Email [email protected]. [Counsel to confirm the rights and notices required for Alabama and for visitors from other states.]
