Privacy Policy

Last updated: 24 June 2026

This privacy policy explains how Velocity Vehicles Leeds Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and protects your personal information when you contact us or use our website, velocityleeds.co.uk. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Who we are

Velocity Vehicles Leeds Ltd is an independent motor dealer and vehicle workshop, a company registered in England and Wales.

We are the “data controller” responsible for your personal information.

The information we collect

We only collect information you give us, or that is needed to run our website securely:

  • Enquiry & contact forms: your name, email address, phone number, and any message or vehicle details you send us.
  • “Sell your vehicle” forms: your name and contact details, plus details of the vehicle you’d like us to buy (such as make, model, registration and mileage) and any photos you choose to upload.
  • Technical information: your IP address and basic browser information, recorded by our web server and used to keep the site secure and prevent spam.

We do not ask for sensitive personal data, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.

How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • respond to your enquiry and answer your questions;
  • provide a vehicle valuation or arrange a viewing, sale, part-exchange or servicing;
  • keep records of our dealings with you; and
  • protect our website against spam and misuse.

Our lawful bases for processing are our legitimate interests in responding to and dealing with enquiries about our vehicles and services, and where relevant, taking steps to enter into a contract with you.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal information to anyone. We only share it where necessary to provide our services, with trusted providers who act on our behalf, including:

  • our website hosting and email providers, who process enquiries sent through the site;
  • professional advisers, and the DVLA, finance or warranty providers, only where this is necessary to complete a purchase or service you have asked for.

Please note that vehicles we advertise are listed on third-party platforms such as eBay, which have their own privacy policies governing any information you share directly with them.

Cookies

Our website uses only essential cookies needed to make the site work and to load pages quickly. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.

How long we keep your information

We keep enquiry information only for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and for our legitimate business and legal record-keeping purposes, after which it is securely deleted.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, and to object to or restrict how we use it. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details above.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be published on this page with a revised “last updated” date.
