Privacy policy

Effective 15 September 2026.

VIN lookups. A VIN you enter is sent to the NHTSA vPIC decoder and the decoded result is cached on our server for up to 30 days to avoid repeat requests. The VIN is not linked to you and is not logged beyond that cache row.

Analytics. We use privacy-focused aggregate analytics (page views and anonymous events such as “calculator run”). No personal profiles are built.

Advertising and affiliates. Where display advertising is enabled, the ad network may set cookies under its own policy. Affiliate links carry an identifier so the vendor can attribute a purchase; we do not receive your personal details from vendors.

Contact. Requests about data held by this site can be sent to the address in the site footer once published.
