Chrome extensionWeb appReview-friendly scope

This policy applies to the AutoInsight Chrome extension and the AutoInsight web app. AutoInsight's single purpose is to help users capture lot data from supported Copart and IAAI pages, save selections, review and share those selections, recover missing VINs when needed, and run requested reports inside the product.

This page explains what data we collect, how we collect it, how we use it, and who it is shared with. If you have questions, use the support form or write to support@autoinsight.pro.

Supported pages only

The extension runs only on Copart and IAAI auction pages you actively open in Chrome.

Single browser permission

It requests only storage to keep the selection draft, theme, and limited signed-in popup state.

Workflow-bound use

Captured lot and VIN data is used to save selections, resolve missing VINs, and deliver requested reports.

What we collect

  • Account and authentication data: your email address, authentication provider, authentication requests submitted through Firebase Authentication, and the profile details you add in AutoInsight, such as first name, last name, username, avatar, about text, or address.
  • Selection and lot data: selection name, visibility setting, optional assigned client email for private selections, auction source, lot number, title, lot URL, image, any VIN already visible on the page, and any max bid you enter.
  • Collaboration and report data: comments, likes, report orders, generated report files, and metadata that links a report to your account, selection, lot, or VIN.
  • Billing and payment records: access plan, trial status, subscription or prepaid access status, report purchase records, payment provider, amount, currency, checkout or invoice identifiers, provider status, and payment history shown in the web app. Payment method details such as full card numbers are processed by the payment provider and are not stored by AutoInsight.
  • Contact request data: the name, email, subject, message, and reCAPTCHA token you submit through the support contact form.
  • Operational and security data: timestamps, access status flags, processing state, and service records needed to run the product, troubleshoot failures, and prevent abuse.

How we collect it

  • You provide data directly when you sign in, edit your profile, save a selection, choose visibility, enter a client email, set a max bid, add comments, start a trial, buy or manage access, order a report, or use the support contact form.
  • The extension reads lot details only from supported Copart and IAAI auction pages that you actively visit in Chrome.
  • Our backend also processes the lot or VIN data you submit to save a selection, resolve a missing VIN, and generate requested reports.

How we use it

  • Authenticate users and keep account access working.
  • Save and sync selections between the extension and the web app.
  • Support sharing, max bids, comments, likes, and other selection-review workflows.
  • Resolve missing VINs and generate reports you request.
  • Manage trials, subscriptions, prepaid access, one-time report purchases, payment history, and payment-provider reconciliation.
  • Protect the service, investigate misuse or failures, and respond to support or privacy requests.

Supported sites and browser permissions

The extension requests only the storage permission. It uses that permission to keep the current selection draft, theme preference, and the limited signed-in user state needed by the popup and supported auction-page buttons.

The extension's content scripts and host access are limited to Copart and IAAI pages that you actively open. It does not collect browsing data from unrelated websites and does not monitor background browsing activity outside those supported auction pages.

Sharing / service providers

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data. We do not use it for personalized advertising or data brokerage. We share data only with people you choose to share with and with service providers needed to run the product.

  • Your sharing choices: public selections can be viewed by anyone with the link. Private selections are available only to the assigned recipient and authorized AutoInsight admins/operators who need access to run and support the service.
  • Google Firebase: authentication, database, server-side functions, and file/report delivery.
  • Firebase Analytics: the web app initializes analytics for basic product usage measurement.
  • Google reCAPTCHA: spam protection for the support contact form.
  • Payment providers: Stripe and CryptoCloud, when enabled, are used for subscription checkout, prepaid access, one-time report purchases, customer self-service, payment confirmation, and webhook/postback reconciliation.
  • Configured SMTP email service: delivery of support contact form messages.
  • NHTSA public APIs: VIN decoding and AI Basic report data such as recalls, complaints, and safety ratings.
  • OEM sticker providers: depending on the vehicle make and report you request, VINs may be sent to providers such as Stellantis, Ford Direct, GM, Subaru, Nissan DealerSocket, or Revcue CDN to retrieve an OEM window sticker.
  • Configured auction-data provider: if you save a supported lot without a full VIN, our backend can query a relay and provider service to resolve that VIN from the auction lot number.

Browser storage

  • The extension uses chrome.storage.local for the current selection draft, visibility choice, optional client email, and saved lot details. It uses chrome.storage.sync for theme preference and limited signed-in user state needed by the popup and supported auction-page buttons.
  • The extension popup also uses localStorage and sessionStorage for sign-in persistence, account-access display cache, and privacy/cookie acknowledgements.
  • The web app uses localStorage and sessionStorage for sign-in persistence, theme, consent state, and temporary UI state such as draft VIN input and comment-panel state.

Security

  • Data is sent over HTTPS between the extension, the web app, and our backend/services.
  • Access to selections, reports, and admin tools is controlled by authentication and server-side or Firestore authorization checks.

Data retention

We keep account, selection, lot, comment, and report data while your account or shared content remains active, or until it is deleted by you or by AutoInsight operations. Billing, payment, and provider reconciliation records may be retained as needed to provide access, preserve payment history, handle disputes, prevent duplicate fulfillment, and meet legal or accounting obligations. Browser storage stays on your device until you clear it or sign out. Contact messages and basic operational records may be retained as needed to respond to you, maintain security, and meet legal obligations.

Retention of payment and dispute records

Payment, order, legal consent, delivery evidence, support, refund, dispute, fraud-prevention, tax, accounting, audit, and legal claim records may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, enforce agreements, and respond to chargebacks or payment network inquiries. Some records may be retained even after an account deletion request where retention is required or permitted by law.

Your choices / contact

You can sign out, clear browser storage, delete selections, and contact us to request access, correction, or deletion of your data. Use the support form at /support or write to support@autoinsight.pro.

Short limited-use compliance statement

AutoInsight uses data from supported auction pages only to provide the user-requested selection, sharing, VIN, and report workflow. It is not used for unrelated browsing surveillance, sold to third parties, or used for personalized advertising.
