Information We Collect
In order to ensure that consumers get the very best service, AutoFigures.com
collects demographic information, web pages visited and other
consumer-volunteered information from sources such as forms, and/or site
registrations. AutoFigures.com' s request forms may require users to give us
information such as your name, address, phone number, social security number,
e-mail address and certain financial and credit-related information. This
information gathering procedure allows AutoFigures.com to match you with a
dealer or partner that we feel is best able to fulfill your request. This
information also helps AutoFigures.com in the development or referral of
products and services that we believe will meet the continuing needs of our
customers. Collected information is used to improve the content of our website,
customize the content and/or layout of our website for individual users, and to
contact users for marketing purposes as well as route requests to our auto
dealer network, fulfillment and marketing partners. . Should you request an
auto loan quote such information will be distributed to our partners for credit
checks and loan approval.

interest to children, the forms on this site are capable of collecting online
contact information from children who furnish it without prior parental consent
or parental notification. Upon discovery that any such information may be
supplied by children, such information shall be disregarded and deleted.

to help AutoFigures.com.com communicate with you about offers from
AutoFigures.com.com or to inform you about their products and services. (See

AutoFigures.com.com is not able to directly fulfill your request, we may
forward your request for information to another reputable partner or auto
dealer. In such a case, you will become subject to the security and privacy
policies that are posted on the associated website and if you wish to do so,
