AutoBridge ("we", "our", or "the app") is a dealer-to-dealer car marketplace mobile application developed by AutoBridge. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our app.

4. Information Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.

Your dealer name, showroom name, and phone number are visible to other registered dealers when they view your vehicle listings. This is necessary for the app to function as a dealer-to-dealer marketplace.

When your account is deleted, the following data is permanently removed:

• All your vehicle listings
• All vehicle photos uploaded by you (removed from cloud storage)
• Your authentication token

You will receive a confirmation email once your account has been deleted. Account deletion requests are processed within 7 days. Account deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.

7. Data Retention
