What we collect, why we collect it, and what you can ask us to do with it.
This policy explains what personal information Pitstop Brake & Auto Inc., trading as PitStop Mobile Mechanics, collects when you use this website or book our services, why we collect it, and what you can ask us to do with it.

- Registered address: 1990 N California Blvd 8th Floor, Walnut Creek, CA 94596

What we collect
We only collect what we need in order to quote and carry out work on your vehicle.
Information you give us. When you submit a request through our website form, use the chat widget, call us or email us, we collect your name, phone number, email address, the location where your vehicle is parked, details of your vehicle, and whatever you tell us about the fault or service you need.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our host and analytics tools record your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages you visit and the site you arrived from. This is used to understand how the site is used and to keep it working.
What we do not collect. We do not take payment through this website, so no card or bank details are entered here. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16.
Why we use it
- To respond to your enquiry and provide an estimate
- To arrange a visit and carry out work on your vehicle
- To keep a service record for your vehicle
- To contact you about a booking, a follow-up, or a question about work we have done
- To meet our legal and record-keeping obligations
Text messages and calls
If you tick the consent box on our form, you agree that we may contact you by SMS about your enquiry or booking. Message and data rates may apply. You can stop these at any time by replying STOP to any message, or by telling us on a call or by email. Opting out of marketing messages does not stop us contacting you about a job already in progress.
We do not sell your phone number, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers we use to run the business, and only so far as they need it:
- HighLevel (LeadConnector) — hosts our enquiry form, chat widget, customer records and messaging
- Our website host — stores and serves this site
- Google — provides the embedded map on our pages
- Our review platform — displays customer reviews on this site
We may also disclose information where the law requires it, or where it is necessary to establish or defend a legal claim.
Cookies
This site uses cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, keep the chat widget working and measure how the site is used. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site, including the chat widget, may not work properly if you do.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry and customer records for as long as we have an ongoing relationship with you, and afterwards for as long as we need to for warranty, tax and legal purposes. When we no longer need information, we delete it or remove anything that identifies you.
Your rights in California
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the CPRA, California residents have the right to:
- Know what personal information we have collected about you and how we have used it
- Request a copy of that information
- Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate
- Ask us to delete information, subject to our legal record-keeping obligations
- Not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights
We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined in the CCPA, so there is nothing to opt out of. To make a request, contact us on (925) 205-8890 or at info@pitstopbrakeandauto.com. We may need to verify your identity before we act, and we will respond within the timeframes the law allows.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we hold, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page. Any material change will be reflected here before it takes effect.
