Our Privacy Policy

At Zumbrota Ford, we believe that the confidentiality and protection of your personal information is one of our fundamental responsibilities. We promise to protect the privacy and security of your customer information and to provide you with the responsive, professional service you deserve.

While you can visit and browse through the website without disclosing who you are or providing any other personal information about yourself, some key features of the site require us to collect information from our users. By using this site, you agree to the terms of this privacy policy.

Information Collection and Use

We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our customers or former customers to anyone, except as permitted by law. Nonpublic, personal information includes any information about you that you or someone else has provided to us and that is not publicly available as well as information about your transactions with us.

We may, however, disclose certain information to government agencies, consumer-reporting agencies, and other outside parties as permitted or required by the Federal Privacy Act and other applicable laws. These disclosures are typically made for specific, limited purposes, such as verifying individuals’ identities, reducing fraud and identity theft, verifying information or credit approvals, and reporting transactions to credit reporting agencies.

Zumbrota Ford is also committed to preventing others from gaining unauthorized access to your customer information, and we enforce our privacy policies through the use of processes, procedures, and technology specifically designed to ensure the confidentiality of your personal information.

In addition, we restrict access to your information by our employees and agents to that of business purposes only. Agents help service your account or help provide our products and services to you. We require any party who has access to your information to maintain the confidentiality of the information and not use it for their own purposes. We do not sell, share or purchase your data to, from or with any third parties.
