CCPA Compliance

This page explains your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and its amendment, the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), as they apply to your use of 2018 Car Models Guide. While we do not collect personal information through user registration or accounts, we may collect certain data automatically as part of standard website operations.

Scope and Applicability

The CCPA/CPRA applies to California residents. This website is informational and does not require users to create accounts or submit personal information. However, we may collect limited personal information through automated means such as cookies, web beacons, and server logs to improve site functionality and analyze traffic.

Your Rights Under CCPA/CPRA

  • Right to Know: You have the right to request details about the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you in the past 12 months.
  • Right to Delete: You may request deletion of your personal information we have collected, subject to certain exceptions.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: You have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. We do not sell or share personal information for targeted advertising purposes.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination: You may exercise your rights without being denied goods or services, charged different prices, or given a different level of service.
  • Right to Correct: You may request correction of inaccurate personal information we hold about you.
  • Right to Use an Authorized Agent: You may designate an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf, provided they submit proof of authorization.

How We Comply

2018 Car Models Guide does not store personal information in user databases. We use third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) that collect anonymized or pseudonymized data. We do not sell or share personal information with third parties for advertising purposes. We honor all valid CCPA/CPRA requests through our designated contact channel.

Data We Process

Under CCPA/CPRA, the following categories of personal information may be collected automatically:

  • IP addresses
  • Browser type and version
  • Device identifiers
  • Pages visited and time spent on site
  • Cookie identifiers

This data is collected for site analytics, performance monitoring, and security purposes only.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing of personal information is based on legitimate business interests, including website functionality, user experience improvement, and security. We do not process sensitive personal information as defined under CPRA.
