Aramids Autos is a trading name of Tokunboh Balogun, who is responsible for your information (the “data controller”). You can contact us about anything in this notice by email at hello@aramidisauto.com or by phone on 07848 901203.

Our address is 31 Westwood Hill, Sydenham, London SE26 6NU.

When you get in touch or ask for a quote, we collect:

• your name, phone number and email address
• the car you're looking for, your budget and any other details you choose to share
• our messages with you, by WhatsApp, phone or email

If you become a customer, we also keep:

• your address, for delivery and vehicle paperwork
• records of payments, invoices and the vehicles we've bought for you
• any details needed for registration, insurance or export, such as V5 logbook information

• To reply to your enquiry and prepare a quote. You've asked us to, so we use your details to take steps before a contract.
• To find, buy, repair and deliver your car. This is needed to carry out our agreement with you.
• To keep tax and accounting records. The law requires us to.
• To follow up on an enquiry or offer after-sales help. This is in our legitimate interests as a business, and you can ask us to stop at any time.

We don't sell your information, and we don't send marketing without your permission.

We only share what each party needs to do their part:

• car auctions, when we register and bid on your behalf
• repair garages, parts suppliers and inspection services
• transport, recovery and delivery companies
• the DVLA, insurers, and shipping and customs agents for exports
• our accountant, and HMRC where the law requires it

We also use everyday services to run the business. These include WhatsApp (Meta), our email provider (IONOS), Resend, which delivers messages sent through our website form, and our website host (Vercel). Some of these companies may store information outside the UK, under safeguards that UK data protection law accepts.

If your car is being exported, your details will be shared with the shipping and clearing agents in the destination country so the car can be delivered.

• Enquiries that don't go ahead: deleted after 12 months.
• Customer records: kept for 6 years after the end of the tax year of your purchase, as tax law requires.

You can ask us to:

• give you a copy of the information we hold about you
• correct anything that's wrong
• delete your information, unless we have to keep it by law
• stop or limit how we use it, or object to us using it
• give your information to you or another business in a usable format

Contact us using the details above. We'll reply within one month.

If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, please tell us first. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
