Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2, 2026

CarDependability.com (the “Site”) is operated by MotoWords LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use the Site, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

We collect only the information we need to run the Site and communicate with you. This falls into a few categories:

  • Information you give us. When you subscribe to our newsletter or submit our contact form, we collect the details you provide, such as your name and email address, along with any message you choose to send. If we add other features in the future that let you submit information (for example, comments, surveys, or an account), we will collect what you provide through those as well.
  • Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our Site and the service providers that support it may automatically log technical details when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit. This may be collected through cookies and similar technologies (see “Cookies and tracking” below).
  • Analytics and advertising data. We may use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the Site, and we may display advertising provided by third parties (such as Google AdSense). These services may collect usage and device information through cookies to measure performance and serve relevant ads.

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Send the newsletter and respond to messages you send us;
  • Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site;
  • Understand how the Site is used and measure the performance of our content;
  • Display and measure advertising, where applicable; and
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

We do not sell your personal information for money. We will not use the information you give us for purposes unrelated to those described here without telling you first.

Cookies and tracking

Cookies are small files stored on your device that help a website function and remember preferences. We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions, analytics, and advertising. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; note that some features may not work properly if you do. Where required, we will present a cookie notice or consent tool.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in these limited situations:

  • Service providers. With companies that help us operate the Site and our communications—for example, our email/newsletter platform, website host, analytics provider, and advertising partners—who may process the information only to provide services to us.
  • Legal and safety. When required by law, subpoena, or legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users, the public, or MotoWords LLC.
  • Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Third-party links

The Site contains links to third-party websites, including affiliate links and advertisements. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit through our links.

Data retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. For example, we retain newsletter information until you unsubscribe, and contact-form messages for a reasonable period after we respond.

Your choices

  • Email. You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any message.
  • Cookies. You can manage cookies through your browser settings.
  • Requests. You can contact us at any time to ask about the information we hold (see “Contact us”).

Your California privacy rights

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), gives you certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

The right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose;

  • The right to request deletion of your personal information;
  • The right to correct inaccurate personal information;
  • The right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information; and
  • The right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

We do not sell personal information for money. To the extent that the use of advertising or analytics cookies is considered “sharing” under California law, you may opt out by adjusting your cookie settings or browser controls. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@cardependability.com. We will not discriminate against you for making a request.

Children’s privacy

The Site is intended for a general, adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
