Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026. This policy explains what information CarQuill USA collects when you use this website, why we collect it, who else can see it, and what you can do about it. It applies to every page on this domain.

The short version

Information we collect directly

Browsing this site requires no personal information. There is no sign-up, no login, and no enquiry form that routes your details to a third party.

If you email us, for a correction, a question or an advertising enquiry, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to put in the message. We use it to reply and to fix the page you told us about. We do not add you to a marketing list.

Information collected automatically

Like almost every website, our server records standard log data for each request: IP address, date and time, the page requested, the referring page, and your browser and operating system. This is used for security, to diagnose faults and to understand aggregate traffic. Logs are retained for a limited period and are not used to build a profile of you.

Cookies and advertising

CarQuill USA is funded by advertising. We work with Google, which uses cookies to serve advertising on this site.

We also store a small preference cookie that remembers which regional edition of the site you chose, India or United States, so you are not sent back to the wrong one on every visit. It contains no personal information.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. The site will keep working; advertising will simply be less relevant.

Analytics

We use analytics to understand aggregate traffic patterns, which pages are read, how visitors arrive, which devices they use. This is reported to us in aggregate and is not used to identify you personally.

If you are in the EEA or the UK

Where consent is required for advertising and analytics cookies, it is collected before those cookies are set, and you may withdraw it at any time through your browser settings or the consent controls presented to you. Our lawful bases for processing are consent, for advertising and analytics cookies, and legitimate interests, for server logs and site security. You have the right to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal data we hold about you, and to object to processing. Write to us at the address below.

If you are in California

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising in exchange for money. You may still exercise your rights to know, delete or opt out by contacting us at the address below.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for a general adult audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Links to other sites

We link to manufacturer sites, dealer sites and other third parties, and we display third-party advertising. Once you follow a link away from this site, this policy no longer applies, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any other website.

Changes to this policy

We update this policy when our practices or our advertising partners change. The version published here is the version in force, and the date at the top tells you when it last changed.
