PRIVACY POLICY

This policy explains what A1 Collision NY & Auto Care collects through a1collisionny.com, why, and what you can ask us to do about it. Last updated 22 August 2026.

A1 Collision NY & Auto Care, 4525 36 Street, Long Island City 11101. Phone (212) 564-7100. Email info@a1collisionny.com.

WHAT WE COLLECT

Only what you give us, plus the basic technical data any website receives:

  • Contact form. Your name, email address, phone number and whatever you write in the message.
  • Mailing list. Your email address, if you have subscribed.
  • Server and security logs. IP address, browser type and pages requested, recorded automatically and used to keep the site secure.

We do not run advertising trackers, and there is no Google Analytics, Facebook pixel or similar on this site.

HOW WE USE IT

  • To answer your enquiry and arrange work on your vehicle
  • To send you the mailing list, if you asked for it
  • To protect the site against attacks and abuse

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for anyone else’s marketing.

WHO ELSE SEES IT

Only the services that make the site work:

  • Our web host, which stores the site and its logs
  • Our email provider, which delivers messages sent from the site
  • Mailchimp, if you subscribed to the mailing list
  • Wordfence, our security plugin, which processes IP addresses to block attacks
  • Google Maps, where the map on our contact page is embedded and may set its own cookies

If you make an insurance claim through us, we share what is necessary with your insurer and their adjuster to progress the claim, and nothing beyond that.

COOKIES

The site itself uses cookies only for basic operation and security. The embedded Google Map sets cookies controlled by Google, not by us. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work.

HOW LONG WE KEEP IT

Enquiries are kept while they are useful for servicing your vehicle and for our own records. Mailing list subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe, which you can do from any email we send. Security logs are kept on a short rolling basis.

YOUR CHOICES

Email info@a1collisionny.com or call (212) 564-7100 and you can ask us to:

  • Tell you what we hold about you
  • Correct anything wrong
  • Delete it, where we are not required to keep it
  • Stop emailing you

CHILDREN

This site is not aimed at children and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
