Dessant Inc Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 22, 2026
Dessant Inc ("Dessant", "we", "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect when you use our website, call or text us, or buy vehicle purchasing, transport, shipping or export services from us, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
We collect information you give us directly: your name, phone number, email address, mailing or delivery address, vehicle details such as VIN, lot number and auction information, copies of documents needed for a transaction such as a title, bill of sale or identification, and payment details needed to issue invoices and record payments. We also collect the content of calls, text messages and emails you exchange with our staff. Our website may collect standard technical information such as IP address, browser type and pages visited.
How we use it
We use your information to quote, arrange and track vehicle purchases, transport, shipping and export; to send you status updates and requests for documents; to issue invoices and confirm payments; to respond to your questions; to meet legal, customs and record-keeping requirements; and to protect against fraud.
Text messaging (SMS)
If you contact us by text or ask us to text you, we will send you one-to-one, conversational messages about your transaction: replies to your questions, pickup and delivery updates, document requests, delivery scheduling and payment confirmations. We do not send marketing or promotional text messages.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
You can stop receiving text messages at any time by replying STOP. Reply HELP for assistance, or contact us using the details below.
How we share information
We share personal information only as needed to deliver our services: with carriers, drivers, ports, shipping lines, customs brokers and warehouses handling your vehicle; with auctions and sellers when buying a vehicle on your behalf; with payment processors and our accounting providers; and with government agencies when required by law or for export and customs clearance. These parties receive only the information needed for their part of the service. We do not sell personal information.
Data retention and security
We keep transaction records for as long as needed to provide the service and to meet tax, customs and legal record-keeping requirements. We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect your information, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
Your choices
You may ask us to see, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, subject to records we must keep by law. You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP.
Children
Our services are for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
