8. Security Measures
We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data. This includes encryption for data at rest and in transit. For highly sensitive information, such as Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) and identity verification documents, we apply stricter access controls. Identity verification is handled by trusted third-party services, and we do not store raw identity documents on our servers after verification is complete.
However, perfect security isn't possible online—please protect your account credentials and be cautious.
