Our dealership takes your privacy seriously and is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. Because we gather certain types of personal information from visitors to this web site (e.g. name, e-mail address, etc.), we have developed this privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) to help you understand the terms and conditions surrounding the collection and use of your personal information.

Cookies may be placed by the operator of the website that you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by other operators setting cookies through that website or app (third-party cookies).
Tracking pixels are small images utilized to track a user, typically for advertising or analytics purposes. Web beacons allow data to be exchanged between systems. Our Sites may also be monitored by third-party software that may capture information about your visit that will help us improve the quality of our Sites and Services. We may use one or more of these technologies on our Sites to transmit information to you or about you and connect information about you from different sources, websites, devices, and mobile applications.

However, we cannot guarantee the security of information you provide us with certainty or warrant it will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by unauthorized persons.

If you have further inquiries about your information under California Privacy Law, please contact us as specified below.
If a company shares Personal Information of California residents with third parties for their marketing purposes (e.g., to send offers and information that may be of interest to you), California law requires either providing a mechanism by which consumers can obtain more information about such sharing over the prior calendar year or providing a mechanism by which consumers can opt out of such sharing. We do not share your Personal Information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes, so we do not offer an opt-out at this time.
