Auction Circle LLC runs a lot-based vehicle auction. This says what we collect, why, who sees it, and what you can ask us to do about it. It's short on purpose — read it once and you shouldn't need to again.

The short version — what we never do
Sell your personal information
Run ad networks against your bidding history
Share more than a recipient needs
Keep advertising click IDs longer than needed for operations
01

What we collect

Three categories, nothing else:

  • Account data — name, email, phone, hashed password, and an ID number for verified bidders. You give us this at registration.
  • Bidding data — bids placed, lots watched, proxy maximums, invoices issued, events attended. Generated as you use the service.
  • Technical data — IP address, browser, device type, log timestamps, first-touch landing/referrer and a session cookie. Captured to keep the platform running, secure and supportable.
02

How we use it

To run the auction, contact you about lots and invoices, prevent fraud, and meet obligations under anti-money-laundering and tax law. That is the whole list.

03

Sharing

Only with parties we cannot run the service without:

  • Lenders who consigned a lot you won — to transfer title and arrange handover.
  • Payment processors handling transactions on our behalf.
  • Carriers, if you book transport through us.
  • Authorities, when compelled by valid legal process.

Every recipient is bound by a written data-handling agreement, and each gets the minimum needed to do the job.

04

Cookies & site analytics

We use a session cookie to keep you signed in and a CSRF token cookie to block cross-site forgery. We also keep lightweight first-party activity logs (page path, source/referrer, IP, user agent) for security and support.

Optional site tools may be enabled by an administrator: Microsoft Clarity (session replay / heatmaps) and a Thribee/Trovit listing pixel. Advertising analytics and conversion trackers are not loaded on this site. Clear cookies whenever you like — you will simply sign in again.

05

Retention

Account and transaction records are kept for seven years after an account closes, in line with US financial-record rules. Technical logs roll off after ninety days. To close an account, write to legal@circle365.com and we handle it inside thirty days.

06

Your rights

You can access, correct, export or delete your personal data by writing to us. Where GDPR or CCPA applies you can also object to or restrict processing. Rights requests are answered within thirty days, free of charge.

07

Security

Passwords are hashed with bcrypt, the site runs over TLS, and database backups are encrypted. Access is monitored continuously. If a breach affects you, we notify you within seventy-two hours of confirming it.
