Privacy Policy

Privacy Notice 

Parkside Automotive Ltd respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information.

This privacy notice explains what information we collect, how we use it and your rights when you contact us, make an enquiry or provide information through our website.

Parkside Automotive Ltd is an independent used car dealership based in Warlingham, Surrey.

If you have any questions about how we use your personal information, you can contact us at:

Telephone: 07592 232 580

What information we collect 

When you contact us or submit an enquiry through our website, we may collect personal information including:

• Your name
• Telephone number
• Email address
• Vehicle registration and mileage
• Information about your vehicle and its condition
• Whether you are looking to sell your vehicle or part exchange it
• Any other information you choose to provide in your enquiry

How we use your information 

We use your personal information to respond to your enquiries, assess vehicles offered to us for sale or part exchange, communicate with you about our vehicles and services, and deal with any potential or completed vehicle transaction. 

Our lawful basis for using your information 

We only use your personal information where we have a lawful reason to do so.

In most cases, we use your information because it is necessary to respond to your enquiry, take steps at your request before entering into a contract, or carry out a vehicle transaction with you.

We may also use information where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as managing customer enquiries and operating our business, provided those interests do not override your rights and interests.

Sharing your information 

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share your information with trusted third parties where necessary to provide our services, complete a vehicle transaction, comply with our legal obligations, or operate our business.

This may include service providers that help us operate our website, email and online forms, as well as other professional or regulatory organisations where required by law.

How long we keep your information 

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected, including responding to enquiries and completing vehicle transactions.

Where we are required to retain information for legal, accounting or regulatory purposes, we may keep it for longer in accordance with those requirements.

When personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete or dispose of it.

Your rights and contacting us 

You have rights under UK data protection law regarding your personal information, including asking us to access, correct or delete information we hold about you in certain circumstances.

If you have any questions about your personal information or would like to exercise your rights, please contact us at sales@parksideautomotive.co.uk.

If you have concerns about how your personal information has been handled, you also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
