Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 8, 2026

OntarioCarBuyer (“we”, “us”) buys used vehicles across Toronto, the GTA and Ontario. This policy explains what personal information we collect through ontariocarbuyer.ca, why we collect it, and how we protect it, in line with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

1. Information we collect

When you request a cash offer, you give us:

• Vehicle details — year, make, model, mileage, whether it is driveable, and whether it is owned outright or financed.
• Contact details — your phone number.
• Page information — the page you submitted the form from (for example, the city page).

Our server also briefly processes your IP address to block spam and abuse of the form. We do not store it with your request.

2. How we use your information

• To call or message you about your vehicle and give you a cash offer.
• To arrange an inspection and payment if you accept the offer.
• To measure how well our advertising works (see section 4).

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We do not add you to marketing lists.

3. Who we share it with

We share information only with service providers that help us run this website and respond to you:

• our website hosting provider, which runs the site and the form;
• a secure messaging service that our team uses internally to receive new requests;
• Google, for advertising measurement (see section 4).

Some of these providers may store data outside Canada, including in the United States. If so, the information is subject to the laws of that country. We may also disclose information when required by law.

4. Cookies and advertising

We use Google Ads conversion tracking. When you arrive from a Google ad, Google may set cookies so that we can see whether the ad led to a form request or a phone call. This information is aggregated and does not tell us who you are. You can control ad personalization at adssettings.google.com and block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

5. How long we keep it

We keep your request only as long as we need it to make an offer and complete a purchase, and as long as tax and vehicle-transfer laws require after a sale. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

6. Security

The form is sent over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection to our own server. Access to requests is limited to our team.

7. Your rights

You can ask to see the personal information we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted. You can also withdraw your consent to be contacted. Contact us and we will reply within 30 days.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last changed.
