Last updated: October 9, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Dale Feste Automotive (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information submitted through https://dalefesteautomotive.com (the “Website”).

Our goal is to collect only the information needed for Dale Feste Automotive to respond to inquiries and maintain appropriate business records.

Information We Collect

When you contact us or submit a form through the Website, we may collect the information you choose to provide, such as:

  • First and last name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • The contents of your message or inquiry
  • Other information you voluntarily include in your submission

The Website or its hosting infrastructure may also process limited technical information, such as IP address and server logs, when necessary to operate, protect, and troubleshoot the Website.

Please do not submit sensitive personal information through the Website unless it is specifically requested and necessary.

How We Use Your Information

We use information submitted through the Website only for Dale Feste Automotive’s business purposes, including to:

  • Contact you in response to your inquiry or submission
  • Follow up about the products or services you asked about
  • Maintain records of inquiries, communications, and other business interactions
  • Protect the Website, prevent misuse, and address technical issues when necessary
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not use information submitted through the Website to build advertising profiles or for unrelated third-party marketing.

Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your submitted personal information with third parties for their own advertising, marketing, or other independent commercial purposes.

We may use service providers, such as Website hosting, email, or data-storage providers, to operate the Website and handle submissions on our behalf. These providers may process information only as needed to provide their services to us and are not authorized by us to use it for their own independent purposes.

We may also disclose information when required by law, in response to valid legal process, to protect rights or safety, or as part of a business transfer where permitted by law. Where legally required, we will provide notice or obtain consent before such disclosure.

Some privacy laws define “sale” or “sharing” broadly, including certain disclosures for targeted advertising. We do not use submitted personal information for targeted advertising or disclose it for that purpose.

Cookies and Website Analytics

The Website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for basic functionality, security, or remembering a privacy choice. You can manage cookies through your browser settings, although disabling some cookies may affect Website functionality.

If Website analytics tools are used, they should be configured and used consistently with this Policy and applicable law. We do not use submitted personal information for advertising analytics or targeted advertising.

Data Retention

We retain submitted information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, protect the Website, and meet legal obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and applicable requirements. When information is no longer needed, we will take reasonable steps to delete it or otherwise securely dispose of it, subject to lawful retention requirements and routine backup processes.

Your Choices and Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You may contact us using the details below to make a request. We may need to verify your identity before responding and may retain certain information when required or permitted by law.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

The Website is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us so we can review the request and take appropriate action.

Links to Other Websites

The Website may contain links to third-party websites. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, security, or privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party website you visit.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. Changes take effect when posted.
