Privacy Policy

Effective October 3, 2026. This policy covers mcelroyautorepair.com.

Who handles your information

McElroy Auto Repair handles inquiries about its services. Website administration and publishing support are provided by SVMedia Services, Sinteag Ventures, Inc. (Sinteag). Website support and the service business may access information needed to respond to an inquiry or maintain the website.

Information you choose to provide

The service-request form prepares an email in your own email application. It includes the contact details, vehicle information, repair symptoms, timing, optional pickup location and notes you enter. This form does not submit those values to a website form service or save them in browser storage. You review and send the email yourself; your email provider and the shop’s email provider then process the message. Any photos you choose to attach are sent with that email.

Hosting, security and service providers

Cloudflare hosts and protects this website. Requests can include IP address, browser and device details, requested pages, time and security signals. Cloudflare may use essential security cookies or similar tools to detect abuse and keep the site working. Relevant providers include Cloudflare, your chosen email provider and the shop’s email provider, and Google for optional analytics or advertising when enabled.

Optional analytics

Google Analytics is configured for page views and interactions such as phone-link clicks and form starts or outcomes, but its script is currently paused on these pages pending consent configuration. The site's custom event code excludes typed names, phone numbers, email addresses and message text. When enabled with appropriate consent, Google Analytics can process page and device information and use cookies. Avoid putting sensitive information in page URLs. You can also use Google's Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Advertising cookies and choices

This site is being prepared for Google AdSense. Advertising depends on Google approval and account settings. If advertising is enabled, Google and other advertising vendors may use cookies or similar identifiers to deliver ads based on your visits to this and other websites, measure ads and prevent fraud. Google advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to personalize ads. You can manage personalized advertising at Google My Ad Center, read how Google uses information from partner sites, and opt out with participating vendors at YourAdChoices or the Network Advertising Initiative. Browser settings can block or delete cookies; some security or preference features may then work differently. These choices do not necessarily remove all advertising.

Visitors outside the United States

The business serves US customers, but this website can be visited from elsewhere. Information may be processed in the United States and other countries by the providers described above. Google’s certified consent platform provides advertising choices for eligible visitors in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland. Google’s European consent message has been published for this site. Eligible visitors can use the consent message to accept, decline or manage purposes and vendors, and its privacy choices control to revisit your decision.

Use, sharing and retention

We use inquiry information to respond, discuss services, coordinate requested work and maintain relevant business communications. Providers and authorized support receive information needed for these purposes. Information may also be disclosed when required by law or to protect security. Website email handoffs and delivered inquiries may remain in business or email-provider records; provider retention depends on their settings and policies. Contact us to ask about a particular record rather than assuming that closing the page deletes a submitted inquiry.

Your requests and contact

Use the published phone number or contact options on our contact page for questions about this policy, access, correction, deletion or applicable privacy rights. State which website and inquiry your request concerns. We may need to verify your identity and may retain records needed for legal obligations or ongoing services. Please do not send passwords, payment-card details or other unnecessary sensitive information through an inquiry form. This site is intended for people seeking business services and is not directed to children under 13.

Changes and external links

Third-party websites and providers have their own privacy policies. We will update this page when website practices change; the effective date above identifies this version.
