Information We Gather during Registration
If you register an Account, we collect and store information that specifically identifies you or your account (“personal information”). At this time, the most information you would be required to submit is your first name, last name, password, street address, city, state, zip/postal code, country, phone number, email address, and information about your vehicle such as: license plate, make, model, year, and engine size. Users wishing to pay for various fees or service retainers via card are also required to enter a valid card number and name as it appears on the card. Other information requested on our registration page, including the ability to receive promotional offers from us, is optional. We may, in the future, include other optional requests for information from you, to help us to tailor the chassis.ng Platform for you and deliver personalized information to you. We may supplement our information with additional information purchased from third parties for marketing purposes. Card information will be transmitted via SSL encryption for your protection.
Call and SMS Data
Our Services does not facilitate direct communication between Users and Technicians. In connection with facilitating this service, we receive call data, including the date and time of the call or SMS message, users phone numbers, and the content of the SMS message.
Online Order Placement and Management
The private and shared areas of the chassis.ng Platform help to facilitate communication and the exchange and sharing of information between users and technicians. The information contained in work orders is accessible by us, the contracting user, and the contracting technician. We may use non-personal information from a work order (e.g., the scope of work or spend limit) for statistical analysis, product development, marketing, and research. We reserve the right to monitor communications throughout the chassis.ng Platform, and if we believe that a user is violating any of our agreements; international, federal or state laws; and/or our stated policies, we may terminate such usage.
Online Surveys and Contests
Occasionally, we conduct online user surveys to collect information about our users’ preferences. These surveys are optional, and if you choose to respond, your responses will be kept anonymous. Similarly, we may offer contests to qualifying users in which we ask for contact and demographic information such as name, email address, and location. None of this information is shared with third parties, except in summary form, if at all. The demographic information that we collect in the registration process and through online surveys is used to help us improve our services to meet the needs and preferences of our users. This may include targeting advertising to you about our services. Information we gather through a contest may also be disclosed to third parties as necessary for prize fulfilment and other aspects of any contest or similar offering.
The chassis.ng Payment System
We offer a payment system that allows users to pay with a card. If you make use of our payment system, we will collect your card number and/or other entered financial institution information and will use that information to bill your membership fee and/or to perform the billing operation on behalf of the Technician, including but not limited to the use and disclosure of such card number and information to third parties as necessary to complete such billing operation.

We do not rent or sell our Users’ Personal information to third parties.

You may opt out of receiving marketing emails at any time by modifying the Preferences section of your profile or by clicking on the unsubscribe link in any marketing email you receive from us.

Third Party Partners

Please take the time to review these third-party privacy policies.
Transaction Intermediaries
We use an outside card processing company to bill Users for retainers and services. We believe these companies do not retain, share, store, or use personal information for any secondary purposes. We use commercially reasonable efforts to restrict transaction intermediaries from using Personal information for purposes unrelated to the Services.
Technicians
Work orders placed on the chassis.ng Platform are completed by third-party Technicians.
