Auth0 currently supports Google sign-in and may support additional sign-in methods (such as Apple, email/password, etc.) in the future. When you sign in, we receive and store your email address, name, and (if provided) profile picture.

3. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data without your consent. We may also share your data under the following circumstances:

3.1 With Dealerships, Lenders, and Other Partners

We will only share your personally identifiable information (PII) with dealerships, lenders, insurance providers, or other third-party partners with your consent, on a case-by-case basis. For example:

• When you direct us to send a specific inquiry, offer, or trade-in request to a specific dealer.
• When you request a financing pre-approval and authorize us to share information with a specific lender.

We do not auto-share your PII with dealers or other partners as part of our default operation.

Aggregated, anonymized data (e.g., search trends, vehicle interest patterns, usage statistics that cannot be tied back to any individual user) may be used for analytics, product improvement, AI model improvement, and may be shared with partners for these purposes. This data is stripped of all identifiable information before any external use.

3.2 Concierge Service Data Sharing

If you opt into Cara's concierge service, you explicitly authorize us to share certain personal information with dealerships and other relevant parties solely for the purpose of facilitating your vehicle purchase. This includes:

• Your name and contact information, shared only with dealers or partners you choose or approve.
• Your vehicle preferences, budget parameters, and desired deal terms, shared to negotiate or inquire on your behalf.
• Any other information you specifically authorize us to share during the concierge engagement.

Concierge data sharing limitations:

• We will not share your information with any dealer, lender, or partner you have not selected or approved.
• Information shared through the concierge service is for informational and transactional purposes only, not for marketing or promotional use by those third parties.
• We will not share your mobile opt-in data or communication consent with any third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.

3.3 With Service Providers

We may share data with trusted service providers, including:

• Cloud infrastructure providers for hosting and data storage.
• Authentication providers (such as Auth0) for secure sign-in.

AI Training Clarification:

• We do NOT provide your personal data or conversation content to third-party AI platforms for their model training.
• Vehicle data displayed through third-party AI integrations is sourced from licensed third-party data providers and managed by us.

3.4 Legal & Security Purposes

• We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government request.
• We may share data to investigate fraud, security threats, or protect legal rights.

3.5 Business Transfers

• If Microverse Labs undergoes a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction.

3.6 AI Platform Integration (Including ChatGPT)

When you access Cara through third-party AI platforms (such as ChatGPT), the following applies:

Data Transmission:

• Your search queries and vehicle preferences are transmitted to our servers to provide relevant results.
• We return only the minimum data necessary to respond to your specific request.
• Vehicle listing data displayed in AI platforms comes from our Services and is subject to this Privacy Policy.

What We Do NOT Do:

• We do NOT allow AI platforms to store or retain your vehicle search data.

Third-Party Platform Policies:

When using Cara through AI platforms, you are also subject to that platform's privacy policy and terms. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any AI platform through which you access our Services, and how those platforms handle conversation data and user information.

Data Minimization:

We collect and return only the minimum information necessary to fulfill your vehicle search requests. Our AI integrations are designed to request only task-specific information, return only directly relevant vehicle data, and avoid collecting or processing unnecessary user context.

3.7 Third-Party Data Sources

Our Services display vehicle listings and related information obtained from licensed third-party data providers who aggregate publicly available automotive information.

Important:

• Vehicle listing data, pricing, and availability are provided by third-party sources and may not be current, complete, or accurate.
• We are not responsible for inaccuracies in third-party vehicle data.
• You should independently verify all vehicle information before making purchasing decisions.
• Vehicle availability and pricing may change without notice.

Dealer & Business Data Removal:

If you are a dealership, seller, or other business and believe your listing data is being displayed through our Services, please note that this data is obtained from licensed third-party data providers, not collected directly from your website or systems. If you would like your listings removed from our Services, please contact us at contact@findcara.com with the subject line "Data Removal Request." We will process valid removal requests within 5–10 business days. Removal from our Services does not affect the availability of your data through our third-party data providers or other platforms.

4. Data Retention & Security

4.1 Retention Period

• We retain your data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy.
• AI assistant conversations are stored for up to 2 years for data gathering, analysis, and improvements.
• You may request data deletion (see Section 8).

4.2 Security Measures

We implement industry-standard security to protect your data, including:

• Encryption of stored and transmitted data.
• Access controls to prevent unauthorized access.
• Regular security audits and monitoring for potential vulnerabilities.

While we take strong security measures, no system is 100% secure, and users should take precautions when sharing personal information.

5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, tracking pixels, and analytics tools to enhance user experience.

• Essential Cookies: Required for core website functionality.
• Analytics Cookies: Help us analyze AI assistant interactions and improve responses.
• Marketing Cookies: Used for advertising and retargeting (if applicable).

Specific services we currently use include, but are not limited to, Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager (for usage analytics and tag management) and the Reddit advertising pixel (for advertising measurement and retargeting). We may add, replace, or remove similar tools from other providers — including, but not limited to, Meta (Facebook / Instagram), TikTok, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Microsoft (Bing / Clarity), Pinterest, Snap, and other analytics or advertising platforms — as our marketing and product needs evolve. When any of these tools' tags fire on our Services, certain technical information (such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, pages visited, referring URL, and interaction events) is automatically transmitted to the relevant third-party service and is then governed by that provider's own privacy policy.

We do not sell your personal information without your consent. Separately, some privacy laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Rights Act) treat the automatic transmission of data to the analytics and advertising services described above as a form of "sharing" — even where no money changes hands and no list of users is exchanged. We make this disclosure for transparency.

You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings. You can also further limit the type of automatic data transmission described above by blocking third-party cookies, using private/incognito browsing, installing a content or ad blocker, or contacting us at contact@findcara.com with any specific opt-out request.

6. SMS & Mobile Communications

If you use our concierge service or opt into SMS communications, the following applies:

• We may send you text messages related to your concierge engagement, including deal updates, dealer responses, and next steps. These messages are transactional and informational only.
• Message frequency varies based on your active engagements. Standard message and data rates from your carrier may apply.
• You may opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying STOP to any message, or by contacting us at contact@findcara.com.
• For help, reply HELP to any message.
• We will not share your mobile phone number or SMS opt-in consent with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.

7. Third-Party Links & Integrations

Our Services may contain links to third-party websites, including but not limited to car dealerships, financing partners, and review sites.
