What the extension sends, and where
1. AcqPilot's own server (acqpilot.com)
- When you appraise a vehicle: the year, make, model, trim, drivetrain, fuel type, cab and bed configuration, mileage band, your ZIP code and your search radius. Our server adds our market-data credential and forwards the search to our market data provider, MarketCheck. Because these search terms originate with you, this is a transfer to a third party and we disclose it here.
- When you sign in: your email address and password, or a one-time pairing code; a session token; your timezone offset; and the device label "Chrome extension".
- When you save a vehicle to your watchlist: that vehicle's identity and appraisal figures, with your session token.
2. The U.S. Department of Transportation VIN decoder (vpic.nhtsa.dot.gov)
- A vehicle identification number, and nothing else. No information about you.
3. An AI service used to identify the vehicle
When a listing does not clearly state the vehicle's trim, AcqPilot's server sends part of the text you pasted to OpenAI, through the Lovable AI Gateway, which returns the trim the market data should be matched against. Up to 4,000 characters of the pasted text are sent.
The text is sent as you pasted it. If a seller has written their name, phone number or email address into the listing description, that text may be included. AcqPilot does not use it, store it against your account, or send it anywhere else.
Each request asks OpenAI not to retain the text. The gateway that carries the request keeps its own operational logs. We will state exact retention periods on this page once we have them in writing from both providers.
AcqPilot sends data to the three destinations described above and no others.
What never leaves your machine
The following never leave your machine: the page address of the listing, your browsing history, your cookies, and screenshots. Diagnostic exports are written to your own downloads folder and are never uploaded.
AcqPilot does not read the content of the listing pages it runs on. Nothing is captured automatically. The only listing content AcqPilot ever receives is the text you copy and paste in yourself, described above.
AcqPilot contains no analytics, no telemetry, no advertising network, no tracking network, and no third-party software development kit.
What is stored on your machine
In your browser's local storage, never synced: your dealership settings (ZIP code, search radius, gross targets, reconditioning defaults, buyer name), your saved-vehicle watchlist, your sign-in session, and a local history of appraisals kept for support.
How long we keep it
Account records and watchlist entries are kept while the dealership account is active and deleted within 30 days of the account closing. Appraisal search terms are retained for 90 days for support and quality purposes.
Selling and sharing
We do not sell your data. We do not share it for advertising. We do not use it to assess creditworthiness or for lending. The transfers to third parties are the two described above: the vehicle search, and the AI trim service.
Your choices
Write to support@acqpilot.com to request a copy of your data or ask us to delete it. Uninstalling the extension removes everything held on your machine.
Changes
If this policy changes we will update the date above and notify dealership account holders.
