Art's Golf Cars, Inc. ("Art's Golf Cars," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website agolfcars.com and the dealership located at 29630 US Hwy 27, Dundee, FL 33838. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use and share it, how we protect it, and the choices you have. It applies when you visit our website, contact us by phone, text, email or social media, buy or service a golf car with us, pay online, or apply for financing.

By using our website or giving us your information, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the website or submit information through it.

1. Information We Collect

Information you give us.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the website we collect your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, the pages you view, the page that referred you, and the date and time of your visit. We collect this through cookies and similar technologies (see Section 7).

Information from other sources. We receive information from the lenders we work with (for example, the status or decision on a financing application) and from our payment processor (confirmation that a payment was made).

2. How We Use Your Information

Automated tools. Some of our replies by email, text or phone are prepared or delivered with the help of automated or artificial intelligence tools. They work from the information on our website and in your message. You can ask to deal with a member of our team at any time by calling (863) 439-5431.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not sell sensitive personal data. We do not share your information with other companies for their own marketing. We share it only as follows:

Text messaging. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging opt-in data and consent are not shared with any third party, other than the service providers that deliver our messages.

4. Calls, Text Messages and Call Recording

If you give us your phone number and agree to be contacted, we may call or text you about your inquiry, purchase, service or financing application. With your prior express written consent, those calls and texts may be made with an automated system or an automated or AI-assisted voice, as permitted by the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act and the Florida Telephone Solicitation Act (Section 501.059, Florida Statutes).

5. Financing Applications

When we help you apply for financing, we handle nonpublic personal financial information that is protected by the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the Federal Trade Commission's Safeguards Rule.

The lender will give you its own privacy notice and any notices required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.

6. Online Payments

Online payments for golf cars and invoices are processed by Stripe, Inc. on a secure checkout page hosted by Stripe. Your card or bank details go directly to Stripe and are handled under Stripe's privacy policy and the payment card industry security standard (PCI DSS). We receive your name, contact details, billing and shipping address, the amount paid, any sales tax charged and the status of the payment. We do not receive or store your full card number or security code.

7. Cookies, Analytics and Similar Technologies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The website will still work, although some preferences will not be remembered. Our website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" or Global Privacy Control browser signals.

8. How Long We Keep Your Information

We keep personal information for as long as we need it for the purposes described in this policy, and for as long as the law requires us to keep sales, service, warranty, tax and dealer records. When we no longer need records that contain personal information, we take reasonable steps to dispose of them securely, by shredding, erasing or otherwise making the information unreadable, as required by the Florida Information Protection Act (Section 501.171, Florida Statutes).

9. Data Security and Breach Notification

We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical measures to protect personal information. These include encrypted connections to our website, access limited to employees who need the information, and two-step sign-in for our internal systems. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If a security breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and the appropriate authorities as required by the Florida Information Protection Act and other applicable law.

Our website is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. You must be at least 18 years old to buy from us or to apply for financing. If you believe a child has given us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

12. Third-Party Websites and Social Media

Our website links to other websites and services, including manufacturers, lenders, Google, Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp. If you follow a link or contact us through one of those services, that company's own privacy policy applies to the information it collects.
