Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 29, 2026
Parkd is an app that helps car dealerships track where their vehicles are parked and how they're moving through reconditioning. This policy explains what information the Parkd app collects, how it's used, and the choices you have. It applies to the Parkd iOS and Android apps.
Parkd is a business tool. Your dealership decides who is on its team and what inventory information is entered into the app.
Information we collect
Your account
- Email address, used to sign you in with a one-time code.
- Your name, if you add one, so teammates can see who made a change.
- Your dealership and role (owner, manager or staff).
Information your dealership enters
- Dealership details: the dealership's name and the layout of its lots (rows and spots).
- Vehicles: VIN, stock number, year, make, model, trim, color, mileage, where the vehicle is parked, its reconditioning stage and history, and notes about work requested.
- Vendors: the name, type of work and phone number of shops your dealership works with, plus status updates recorded for vehicles sent to them.
- Activity history: a log of changes (for example, "Moved to Main Lot B4") with the name of the teammate who made each change.
- Invitations: the email address and role of people your team invites to join.
Information that stays on your phone
- Invoice photos you take or choose are saved in the app's private storage on your phone. They are not uploaded to our servers.
- App settings, such as light or dark appearance and vibration, are saved only on your phone.
Device permissions
- Camera: used to scan VIN barcodes and to photograph invoices. Barcode scanning happens on your phone; camera images used for scanning are not stored or uploaded.
- Photo library: used only when you choose an existing photo to attach as an invoice.
You can turn these permissions off at any time in your phone's settings. The rest of the app keeps working.
What we don't collect
- We don't collect your device's GPS location. "Location" in Parkd means a parking spot your team records, not where your phone is.
- We don't access your contacts.
- We don't use advertising, ad tracking, or third-party analytics in the app.
- We don't sell your information, and we don't share it for advertising.
How we use information
- To sign you in and keep your account secure.
- To show your dealership's inventory, lot map and reconditioning progress to you and your teammates.
- To keep a history of changes so your team can see what happened and who did it.
- To send sign-in codes and other messages about your account.
- To fix problems and keep the service running.
Who can see your information
- Your teammates. Everyone on your dealership's team can see the dealership's inventory, vendors and activity history, along with teammates' names, email addresses and roles. People at other dealerships cannot see your dealership's information.
- Service providers that run parts of Parkd for us, under agreements that limit how they can use the data:
- Supabase hosts our database and handles sign-in.
- Resend delivers sign-in emails.
- VIN lookups. When you scan or enter a VIN, the app sends the VIN (and nothing else about you) to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's public vPIC service to look up the vehicle's year, make and model.
- Calls and texts. When you tap to call or text a vendor, Parkd opens your phone's own Phone or Messages app. Parkd doesn't send or read those messages.
- Legal reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety or property of our users or others.
Keeping and deleting your information
We keep your information while your account is active. You can delete your account at any time in the app: More → Settings → Delete account.
- Deleting your account removes your sign-in, your email address and your team membership. Your name is removed from your dealership's activity history, where your past changes will show as made by a former teammate.
- Information your dealership entered (vehicles, lots, vendors) belongs to the dealership and stays available to the rest of the team.
- If you are your dealership's owner and the only member of the team, deleting your account also deletes the dealership and all of its information. If other people are on the team, remove them first; the dealership is deleted along with the owner's account.
- Invoice photos are stored only on your phone and are removed when you delete the app.
Deleted information is removed from our live systems right away. If it exists in backups, it is removed from them within 30 days.
Security
Information is encrypted in transit between the app and our servers. Our database enforces that each dealership can only access its own records. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and limit who can access it.
Children
Parkd is intended for people working at car dealerships and is not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect information from children.
Your choices and rights
You can view and update your name in the app, and delete your account at any time. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights, such as asking for a copy of your information. To make a request, contact us using the details below.
Changes to this policy
If we make meaningful changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, let you know in the app.
