Green Light Rides Privacy Policy

Green Light Rides

Effective date: November 9, 2026

Green Light Rides is a Facebook Page that sells quality used vehicles across Atlantic Canada (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador), with free delivery in those provinces. We also help customers apply for vehicle financing. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect personal information when you submit an application or inquiry through our website application form, our Facebook Page, Facebook Lead Ads, or Facebook Messenger.

We follow Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws.

Information we collect

When you fill out our application form or send us a message, we may collect:

  • Name (first, middle, and last) and date of birth
  • Phone number and email address
  • Marital status and number of dependants
  • Current residential address, how long you have lived there, whether you own, rent, live with family, or have another arrangement, and your monthly rent or mortgage payment
  • Previous address, if you have lived at your current address for less than two years
  • Employment type, employer name, job title, employer city and phone number, time at your job, and gross income (amount and how often you are paid)
  • Previous employer and time there, if you have been at your current job for less than two years
  • Other income source and monthly amount, if you provide it
  • A credit self-rating and whether you have a bankruptcy or consumer proposal (and the year, if applicable)
  • The type of vehicle you want, your bi-weekly budget, any down payment, and trade-in details if you have one
  • Co-applicant information, if you choose to include a co-applicant (name, date of birth, phone number, relationship, employer, time at job, and gross income)
  • Any comments you include
  • Technical details about how you submitted the form, such as the date and time of your inquiry

We do not collect your social insurance number (SIN) or banking details through this form. Email is not a secure way to send that information.

Why we collect it

We use this information to:

  • Contact you about vehicles you may be interested in
  • Answer your questions and follow up on your inquiry
  • Review and process your vehicle financing application
  • Share your application, with your consent, with lending partners so they can assess creditworthiness, including by obtaining a credit report
  • Arrange free delivery across Atlantic Canada
  • Improve our customer service

We do not sell your personal information.

How we share information

We share your personal information only when needed to serve you, and only as follows:

  • With lenders and finance companies, with your consent, so they can process a credit or financing application on your behalf and obtain a credit report
  • When required by law, such as in response to a valid legal request
  • With service providers who help us operate our website, Page, or application form and who are required to protect your information

We do not share your information for unrelated marketing by third parties.

Credit reports

If you submit a financing application and provide consent, we and our lending partners may obtain a credit report and use the information you provided, together with that report, to process your application and determine financing options. Submitting an application does not guarantee approval. Financing is on approved credit.

Retention

We keep your personal information only as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy, including following up on a vehicle or financing inquiry, and for as long as we are required to keep it by law or for legitimate business records. When it is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Information submitted through our website form is delivered by email so we can process your application. Email transmission is not completely secure, which is one reason we do not ask for your SIN or banking details on this form. Information submitted through Facebook is also subject to Meta's security and privacy practices. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, but we work to keep your information safe.

Your rights

Under PIPEDA, you have the right to:

  • Ask what personal information we hold about you
  • Request a copy of that information
  • Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete
  • Request that we delete your information, subject to any legal or record-keeping requirements

To make a request, send a message to the Green Light Rides Facebook Page at facebook.com/profile.php?id=61596228818238. We will respond within a reasonable time, and no later than 30 days, as required by PIPEDA.

Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page will be revised when we do. The current version will always be available at this link.
