Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us, plain and simple

Last Updated: November 6, 2025

Introduction

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by our privacy page. Look, we get it - nobody really wants to read these things, but we've tried to keep it straightforward because your trust means everything to us.

Here at Mythralyx Concord Auto Repair, we're not just careful with your BMW, Mercedes, or Porsche - we're just as careful with your personal information. This policy spells out what info we collect when you visit our shop or website, and more importantly, what we do (and don't do) with it.

Bottom line? We only collect what we need to provide you with top-notch service, and we never sell your info to anyone. Period.

Personal Details You Give Us

When you book an appointment or bring your vehicle in, we'll need some basics:

  • Your name and contact info (phone, email, address)
  • Vehicle information - make, model, year, VIN
  • Service history and what's been done to your ride
  • Payment details when you settle up
  • Any preferences you've mentioned about parts or service timing
Stuff We Pick Up Automatically

Like most websites these days, ours collects some technical bits:

  • Your IP address and browser type
  • Which pages you check out on our site
  • How long you stick around
  • Where you came from (like if you clicked a link from somewhere)
Security Camera Footage

Yeah, we've got cameras in the shop for everyone's safety. We keep that footage for a reasonable time and it's only reviewed if there's an incident or security concern.

We're not gonna beat around the bush - here's exactly what we do with your info:

  • Service Your Vehicle: This is the big one. We need your details to schedule appointments, order the right parts for your specific car, and keep track of what work's been done.
  • Keep You in the Loop: We'll text or email you about appointment confirmations, when your car's ready, and maybe a reminder when it's time for that next oil change.
  • Handle Payments: Pretty self-explanatory - gotta process those invoices and payments.
  • Improve Our Service: We look at trends to see what services folks need most, what parts we should keep in stock, that kind of thing.
  • Legal Stuff: Sometimes we're required to keep records for warranty claims, safety recalls, or if there's ever a dispute.
  • Marketing (Only if You're Cool With It): Occasionally we'll send out info about specials or tips for maintaining your luxury vehicle - but only if you've said it's okay. You can opt out anytime.

That's it. We don't sell your info, rent it out, or do anything sketchy with it. Your data stays with us and the partners we need to serve you (like payment processors).

Alright, let's be transparent about this. We don't just hand out your info willy-nilly, but there are a few situations where we might need to share it:

Service Partners
  • Parts suppliers (so we can get the right components for your specific vehicle)
  • Payment processors (they handle the credit card transactions securely)
  • Diagnostic tool providers (for those complex computer systems in modern luxury cars)
Legal Requirements
  • If we're legally required to (like a court order or government request)
  • Safety recalls from manufacturers
  • Insurance claims if you're involved in one
With Your Permission

If you specifically ask us to share info with someone (like your insurance company or a warranty provider), we'll do that too. But again, only when you give us the green light.

We take security seriously - like, really seriously. Just like we wouldn't leave your Audi with the keys in the ignition, we don't leave your data sitting around unprotected.

What We Do:
  • All payment info is encrypted using industry-standard SSL technology
  • Our computer systems are protected by firewalls and security software
  • Only authorized staff can access customer records, and only when they need to
  • We regularly back up data so nothing gets lost
  • Physical files are locked up when the shop's closed

That said, no system is 100% bulletproof. We do everything we can to protect your info, but we can't guarantee absolute security. If we ever do have a data breach (knock on wood), we'll let you know right away and tell you what happened.

Your Part: Keep your account passwords secure if you use our online booking. Don't share them with anyone, and if you think someone's accessed your account, let us know ASAP.

Okay, cookies aren't just delicious treats - they're also tiny files that websites use to remember stuff about you. Don't worry, they're not tracking your every move or anything creepy like that.

What We Use Cookies For:
  • Remembering your booking preferences
  • Keeping you logged in if you have an account
  • Understanding which parts of our site people use most
  • Making sure our site works properly on your device
Types of Cookies We Use:
  • Essential Cookies: These keep the site running. Can't really turn these off or things won't work.
  • Analytics Cookies: Help us see what's working and what's not on our website.
  • Preference Cookies: Remember your settings and choices.

Don't Want Cookies? Most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings. Just heads up - some features on our site might not work as well if you do that.

Under Canadian privacy laws (specifically PIPEDA), you've got some important rights when it comes to your personal info. Here's what you can do:

Access Your Data

You can ask to see what info we have about you. We'll show you what we've got.

Correct Mistakes

If something's wrong or outdated, just let us know and we'll fix it.

Delete Your Info

Want us to delete your data? We can do that (unless we legally have to keep it).

Opt Out of Marketing

Don't wanna hear about our specials? No hard feelings - just unsubscribe anytime.

How to Exercise Your Rights: Just give us a call at (905) 555-2847 or shoot us an email at service@mythralyxconcord.info. We'll get back to you within 30 days.

We don't hold onto your info forever - that'd be weird and unnecessary. Here's our general approach:

  • Service Records: We keep these for 7 years. Why so long? Sometimes warranty claims or issues pop up years later, and having that history helps.
  • Payment Info: Financial records stick around for 7 years too (Canadian tax law requires it).
  • Marketing Lists: As long as you're okay with receiving our emails. Unsubscribe and you're off the list within 10 business days.
  • Security Footage: Usually about 30 days unless there's a specific incident we need to review.
  • Website Analytics: This stuff's mostly anonymous and we keep it for about 2 years to spot trends.

After these time periods, we either delete the info or anonymize it so it can't be traced back to you. If you close your account or ask us to delete your data, we'll do it sooner (except for stuff we legally have to keep).

Our services are for adults - you know, folks who own luxury vehicles and need them serviced. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

If we somehow end up with a minor's info and find out about it, we'll delete it right away. If you're a parent and think we might have your kid's information, please reach out and we'll take care of it immediately.

Look, things change. Technology evolves, laws get updated, and we might need to adjust how we handle data. If we make any significant changes to this privacy policy, we'll let you know in a few ways:

  • We'll update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page
  • For major changes, we'll send an email to customers on our list
  • We might post a notice on our homepage for a bit

It's worth checking back here once in a while to see if anything's changed. By continuing to use our services after we update the policy, you're basically saying you're cool with the changes.

Questions About Your Privacy?

Seriously, if anything here doesn't make sense or you've got concerns about how we handle your data, don't hesitate to reach out. We'd much rather answer your questions than have you worrying about it.
