Privacy Policy

We collect information you provide directly (account details, equipment information, search queries), information we collect automatically (usage patterns, device information, location data for local suppliers), and information from third parties (supplier verification, payment processors). This includes your equipment inventory, maintenance history, search preferences, and interaction data with our smart search technology.

We use your information to provide and improve our services, including smart part matching, predictive maintenance alerts, supplier recommendations, and personalized search results. We analyze usage patterns to enhance our algorithms, provide customer support, process transactions, and send you relevant updates about your equipment and available parts.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with verified suppliers when you request quotes or make purchases, with service providers who assist our operations (payment processing, analytics), and when required by law. We may share aggregated, anonymized data to improve our services and help suppliers understand market trends.

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit and at rest, regular security audits, access controls, and secure data centers. We use HTTPS encryption for all data transmission and store sensitive information in encrypted databases. Our team undergoes regular security training and we maintain strict access controls.

We use analytics tools to understand how users interact with our platform, improve our smart search algorithms, and optimize the user experience. This includes tracking page views, search queries, conversion rates, and user engagement metrics. We use this data to enhance our matching system and provide better supplier recommendations.

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, analyze site performance, and provide personalized experiences. This includes essential cookies for platform functionality, analytics cookies to understand usage patterns, and preference cookies to remember your settings. You can control cookie settings through your browser or our privacy dashboard.

You have the right to access, update, or delete your personal information. You can manage your privacy settings, opt out of marketing communications, download your data, and request data deletion. We provide easy-to-use tools in your account settings to exercise these rights. You can also contact our privacy team directly for assistance.

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. We may retain certain information for legitimate business purposes, legal compliance, or to resolve disputes. When you delete your account, we will delete your personal information within 30 days, though some anonymized data may be retained for analytics purposes.

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for international transfers, including standard contractual clauses and adequacy decisions. We work with trusted partners who maintain high data protection standards regardless of location.

Our services are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 16, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. Parents can contact us if they believe their child has provided personal information to us.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. We will notify you of any material changes through email or prominent notice on our platform. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
