Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how AutoTransportInsider.com ("we," "us," or "the Site") collects, uses, and shares information about you. The most important thing to understand: when you submit a quote request, we share your contact details with third-party auto transport brokers so they can provide you with quotes and contact you about your request. Please read the sections below for full detail.

1. Who We Are

AutoTransportInsider.com is an informational and lead-referral website. We are not an auto transport broker or carrier. We do not ship vehicles, provide quotes ourselves, or handle payment for transport services. We provide educational content and connect consumers with third-party auto transport brokers and carriers.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide

When you submit a quote request or contact form, we collect information you provide, which may include your name, email address, phone number, origin and destination ZIP codes, vehicle type, shipping timeframe, and any other details you enter.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we may automatically collect certain technical information through cookies and analytics tools, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and referring URLs. We use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the Site.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

4. How We Share Your Information

This is the core of how our service works. When you submit a quote request, we share the information you provide with one or more third-party auto transport brokers and/or carriers ("Partners"). These Partners will use your information to prepare quotes and to contact you by phone, text message, and/or email about your request.

We may also share information:

Once your information is shared with a Partner, that Partner's own privacy policy governs how they use it. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party Partners. We encourage you to review their policies.

5. Consent to Be Contacted

By submitting a quote request, you expressly consent to be contacted by us and by the Partners we match you with, at the phone number and email address you provide, regarding your request. This may include contact by phone call, text message (SMS), and email, including through automated or prerecorded means. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. You may opt out at any time by asking a Partner to stop contacting you, replying STOP to text messages, or contacting us using the details below.

6. Cookies and Tracking

We use Google Analytics to understand which pages visitors read and how they arrive. That is the only tracking on the Site. We run no advertising pixels, no remarketing tags, and no third-party ad networks, and analytics data is never shared with the Partners we refer you to.

How to turn it off. Use the Your Privacy Choices link in the footer of any page, or the notice shown on your first visit. Your choice is stored in your browser and remembered. Opting out also clears the analytics cookies already set.

Global Privacy Control. If your browser or extension sends a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out automatically and analytics never loads. You do not need to do anything else.

You can also block or clear cookies through your browser settings. The quote form is separate from all of this: it is covered by sections 4 and 5 above and is not affected by your analytics choice.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or delete it, and the right to opt out of certain sharing.

California residents (CCPA/CPRA)

California residents have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as those terms are defined under California law. We share your information with Partners as described above. Where a Partner pays us a referral fee for that introduction, the sharing may also be considered a "sale" under California law. To exercise your rights, contact us using the details below.

Other jurisdictions

Residents of other US states or countries may have similar rights under applicable law. Contact us to make a request.

8. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

9. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when posted, and the "Last updated" date reflects the most recent revision.
