Last updated 7 November 2026. Swaxcar is run by Webtronaut Innovations LLC.
We collect the minimum needed to run a marketplace: your account details, your listings and your bids. We never sell personal data. We do not run ad trackers. The only measurement on the site is Google Analytics, used to count visits and see which pages people actually use.
Account details. Your email address, your name, and for shops your shop name, city and country. Passwords are stored only as salted one-way hashes. We could not read your password if we wanted to.
Sign in with Google. If you use the Google button, Google tells us your email address and your name, and that is all we take. We never see your Google password, and we do not pull in your contacts, photos or anything else from your Google account.
Listings and bids. The car details you post, including the VIN if you type one in, your notes, your budget, and the bids shops place. Listings and bids are public on the board, except that email addresses are never shown publicly. A bid shows the shop's name and city, not its email.
Deals. When a bid wins, we keep the deal record: the agreed price, the deposit status and the checkpoint proof, so both sides can see where the job stands.
Directory profiles. Our specialists directory lists conversion businesses with details they publish themselves, like their website, city and specialty. If your business is listed and you want it changed or removed, claim the profile or write to us and we will sort it.
Analytics. Google Analytics (measurement ID G-4GDYNNS1XQ) counts visits and page views. If you type a VIN into the listing form, it is checked against the free NHTSA vPIC database to fill in the car's details. That lookup sends the VIN to NHTSA, which is a public vehicle database, and nothing else about you goes with it.
We do not sell or rent personal data. We do not share your email address with other users or with advertisers. We do not email marketing blasts to people who have not asked for them. Emails about your account, your listings, your bids and your deals are part of running the marketplace.
The site runs on Vercel, and marketplace data is stored in Vercel's storage in the United States. Mail for Swaxcar addresses is handled by Google Workspace. Service providers like these only process data to run the service.
You can ask us at any time what we hold about you, ask for it corrected, or ask for your account and personal data deleted. Deleting an account removes your personal details; listings and bids that are part of a completed deal record may stay in anonymised form so the other side keeps their paperwork. Write to info@webtronaut.com and a person will answer.
If this policy changes, the new version appears on this page with a new date at the top. Questions about privacy: info@webtronaut.com.
