Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 1, 2026
Valder’s Vehicles (“Valder’s Vehicles,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect information when you visit www.valdersvehicles.com, contact us, submit a website form, request information, schedule service, inquire about financing, or otherwise interact with us.
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected directly by Valder’s Vehicles. Third-party lenders, finance companies, leasing providers, website services, social-media platforms, and other linked services may maintain their own privacy notices and practices.
Information We May Collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
- Name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number.
- Preferred contact method and communication preferences.
- Vehicle, trailer, trade-in, service, warranty, and transaction information.
- Driver’s license, insurance, title, registration, and identity-verification information when required for a transaction.
- Employment, income, credit, financial, and application information when you request financing and provide that information through an authorized process.
- Messages, form submissions, appointment requests, and other information you choose to provide.
- IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location, cookie identifiers, and website activity.

- Directly from you.
- From your device or browser when you use our website.
- From lenders, finance companies, leasing providers, service providers, manufacturers, warranty administrators, and other transaction participants.
- From advertising, analytics, inventory, website-hosting, communications, and social-media services.
- From public records or other sources permitted by law.

Financing and Financial Information
If you request consumer financing or leasing, additional privacy notices may apply under federal or state financial-privacy laws. A website Privacy Policy does not replace any financial privacy notice that must be provided in connection with a covered financing or leasing transaction.
Applications completed on a lender, leasing-provider, or other third-party website are subject to that provider’s privacy notice, security practices, application terms, and disclosures. Review those documents before submitting sensitive personal or financial information.
When We May Disclose Information
We may disclose information to:
- Lenders, finance companies, leasing providers, credit-reporting participants, and transaction partners when requested or authorized and permitted by law.
- Manufacturers, distributors, warranty providers, service providers, delivery providers, and vendors involved in a requested product or service.
- Website hosts, analytics providers, advertising services, communications providers, software vendors, payment processors, and professional advisers.
- Government agencies, regulators, law enforcement, courts, or other parties when required or permitted by law.
- A buyer, successor, or other participant in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar business transaction.
- Other parties with your direction, authorization, or consent.
We do not sell customer lists for money. Certain advertising, analytics, cookie, or digital-marketing activities may be considered a “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” under some state privacy laws even when no money is exchanged.
Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
Our website and service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, measure traffic, evaluate advertising, prevent fraud, and improve website performance.
Browser settings may allow you to block or delete cookies. Blocking cookies may affect website functionality. Where required by applicable law, we will honor legally recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, for the browser or device sending the signal.
Marketing Communications
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in the message. You may request that marketing telephone calls or text messages stop by following the instructions in the communication or contacting us. Transactional, safety, recall, appointment, service, or account-related communications may still be sent when permitted by law.
Consent to receive marketing calls or text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services unless expressly stated otherwise in a lawful, transaction-specific consent.
Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including completing transactions, maintaining business and service records, meeting legal and regulatory obligations, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and protecting against fraud. Retention periods vary by information type and applicable law.
Information Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Do not send Social Security numbers, bank-account credentials, payment-card information, or similarly sensitive information through an ordinary email or general website contact form.
Your Privacy Choices and Rights
Depending on your state of residence and applicable law, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a portable copy of certain personal information. You may also have the right to opt out of certain targeted advertising, profiling, sales, or sharing of personal information and to appeal a denied privacy request.
These rights may be subject to exceptions, identity verification, and limitations under applicable law. Financial information governed by federal financial-privacy law, motor-vehicle records, fraud-prevention records, completed transaction records, and other regulated information may be exempt from some state privacy rights.
To submit a privacy request, contact Valder’s Vehicles using the information below. Please describe your request and provide enough information for us to verify your identity. Authorized agents may submit requests where permitted by law, subject to verification of their authority.
We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information to us so we can evaluate and address the matter.
Third-Party Websites
Our website may link to lenders, leasing providers, manufacturers, social-media platforms, mapping services, and other third-party websites. Valder’s Vehicles does not control those websites or their privacy and security practices. Review the third party’s privacy notice before submitting information.
