Last updated: [01-08-2026]
This Privacy Policy explains how OzCarSpares collects,
uses and protects your information when you use [ozcarspares.com.au] (the
“Site”). We are based in Australia and aim to handle personal information in
line with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act
1988 (Cth).
Who we are
OzCarSpares is an information and enquiry service about used car parts in
Australia. We publish guides and connect people who need parts with our
network of wreckers and suppliers across Australia. We do not sell parts or hold stock ourselves.
What we collect
Information you give us. When you submit a quote-request form, we
collect the details you enter — such as your name, email, phone number,
state, the vehicle and part you’re after, and any details you add. You
provide this voluntarily.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we and our
service providers automatically collect certain technical data when you
visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages
viewed, and the date and time of your visit. This is collected through
cookies and similar technologies (see below).
How we use your information
We use your information to:
- pass your parts enquiry to our network of Australian wreckers and
suppliers so they can quote you; - respond to your enquiries and provide our service;
- operate, maintain and improve the Site;
- display relevant advertising; and
- meet our legal obligations.
When you submit an enquiry, we record your consent (including the time and
your IP address) as evidence that you agreed to be contacted.
Sharing your information
We share the details you submit in a quote request with the wreckers and
suppliers in our network so they can respond to you with a quote. We may
also share information with service providers who help us run the Site
(such as hosting and email providers), and where required by law. We do not sell your personal information.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use them to make the Site
work, understand how it’s used, and — where advertising is enabled — to
help show relevant ads. You can control or delete cookies through your
browser settings, though some features may not work as well without them.
Advertising and Google AdSense
We may display advertising on this Site, including through Google AdSense.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on
your prior visits to this and other websites. - Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve
ads to you based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites on the
internet. - You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings (https://www.google.com/settings/ads). You can also opt out of
some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at
https://www.aboutads.info/choices/.
For more on how Google uses data when you use our Site, see
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
If we serve ads to visitors in the EU/UK, we present a consent request
before advertising or measurement cookies are set, as required by law.
Third-party links
Our guides may link to other websites, including wreckers and suppliers in
our network. We aren’t responsible for the privacy practices of those
sites; please review their own policies.
Data security
We take reasonable steps to protect your information from misuse, loss and
unauthorised access. No method of transmission over the internet is
completely secure, however, and we can’t guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
You may request access to, or correction of, the personal information we
hold about you, or ask us to delete it, by contacting us at [YOUR EMAIL].
We’ll respond within a reasonable time.
Children
The Site is not directed at children under 15, and we don’t knowingly
collect their personal information.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date shows
when it last changed.
