CRM processing
We use a CRM to manage inquiries and customer relationships. Lead information — including contact details, the vehicle of interest, source, and consent — is stored in the CRM and used to follow up with you. We do not share your information for marketing purposes without your consent.

If you opt into SMS, you consent to receive text messages from 816 Auto Sales. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. See our SMS Terms.
Email communications
We may send transactional emails about your inquiry. Marketing emails are sent only if you opt in, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in each email.
Cookies & analytics
Essential cookies keep the site working. With your consent, we may use analytics and advertising cookies. You can manage your choices using the cookie banner. We do not deploy advertising or analytics cookies that require consent until you have given it.
Data retention
We retain inquiry and lead information for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and for reasonable business record-keeping. You may request deletion of your information at any time.
Data sharing & service providers
We share information with service providers who help us operate (for example, our CRM and email provider) under appropriate agreements. We do not sell your personal information.
Your rights
- Access, correct, or delete your information.
