We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share some or all of your personal information with third parties such as the manufacturer of your vehicle and its related companies, the providers of products or services relating to your vehicle, credit reporting agencies, financial institutions or financing companies, your insurance agent or company and companies which provide or insure warranties relating to your vehicle. We may also disclose your personal information where we are required or permitted by law to do so.
We retain your personal information as long as we believe that you are still the owner of the vehicle.

If the information relates to the service or repair of your vehicle we retain the personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to address any issues arising from the service or repair of the vehicle or as may be required by law.
