Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Garage Crowd Legal handles personal data when you use garagecrowdproofocean.autos. It applies to information collected through the site and related communications in connection with our legal services for real estate agents.
How We Use Data
We use personal data to operate the site, respond to enquiries, provide legal services, manage client or prospect relationships, maintain records, improve site performance, secure our systems, detect misuse, and meet legal, regulatory, and internal compliance requirements.
Service Providers and Partners
We may share personal data with service providers that support hosting, security, analytics, communications, document handling, and other operational services. We may also share information with professional advisers and other parties involved in delivering our services, subject to confidentiality and appropriate data handling obligations.
Legal Disclosures
We may disclose personal data where required to comply with law, court orders, regulatory requests, or lawful investigations. We may also share information where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our business, users, or others.
Your Rights
Subject to applicable law, you may request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate information, or deletion where retention is no longer justified. You may also object to certain processing or ask us to restrict use in limited circumstances. Some requests may be declined where we have a lawful basis to keep or use the data.
How to Make a Request
To protect privacy and security, we may ask for information needed to verify your identity before responding to a request. We will review requests within a reasonable period and respond in line with applicable legal requirements. If we cannot fully comply, we will explain the reason where permitted.
Retention of Data
We retain personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, manage enquiries, meet legal and accounting obligations, resolve disputes, and maintain security records. When data is no longer needed, we will delete it, anonymise it, or securely archive it where retention is still required.
Policy Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the revised version on the site and adjust the effective date where appropriate. If a change materially affects how we handle personal data, we will take reasonable steps to draw attention to it.

Sources of Data
