Voluntary Information: When you sign up for our newsletter, download a lead magnet, or purchase an Educational System, we collect your name and email address.
Transaction Data: Purchases made via our checkout partner (Gumroad) securely process payment information. FixingAuto.com does not store your credit card details.
Automated Data: We use industry-standard analytics to understand how visitors interact with our content. This includes IP addresses, browser types, and "Do Not Track" signals.
