Jeep® is committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. We have established this privacy policy to demonstrate the care with which we will treat your information.

PRIVACY:

We will always respect your privacy and any personal information that you give us. We will always endeavour to comply with the Data Protection Act 1998 and any associated legal regulations concerning data protection.

When you visit this website, your personal data is only stored if submitted by you when requesting information or using any service available on the site, for example where you might request a test drive or request an insurance quote from Jeep Consumer Services.

USE OF YOUR INFORMATION:

This policy describes how we and other companies in the Fiat Group (collectively referred to as "we") intend to use your personal information. If this differs for any reason, such as in the case of data relating to children, we will make this clear at the time of data collection.

If you make a specific request for us to contact you, such as requesting a brochure, we will use the personal information you provide to fulfil your enquiry. We may disclose your information to FCA Appointed companies and agents for this purpose. Where you request a service provided independently by our franchised dealers or by other FCA Appointed companies (for example, a test drive or a quote from FCA Insurance), we may share your information with them to fulfil this request. At any page on this web site where you have the opportunity to submit your personal information, you will be given the opportunity to object to us, our franchised dealers and other FCA Appointed Companies making further use of your data. You will also be given the opportunity to specify whether we, our franchised dealers and other FCA Appointed Companies can communicate with you by e-mail, SMS and/or fax.

If you do not object to us making further use of your data we, our franchised dealers or other FCA Appointed Companies may keep your data for a reasonable period and use the data given for our own internal research purposes or to contact you in the future to let you know about Jeep®'s other products and services (such as motor insurance or financial products) or special offers that might be of interest to you or to ask you what you think of us in order to improve our customer service.

We will only contact you by e-mail, telephone or post if you have consented to our doing so. We may notify you on the relevant page of our website that by submitting your details to us, you are giving your consent to receiving marketing messages from us and from our franchised dealers. We will however, always give you the opportunity to object to receiving marketing messages. Your personal information may be passed to and processed by FCA Italy SpA or FCA Group companies, Jeep®’s franchised dealers and other agents who act under our direction. We may also share your information with our franchised dealers for use in connection with their business as Jeep® franchised dealers. You may hear separately from our franchised dealers about our ranges of Jeep® vehicles or from our agents and representatives about related motoring products and services, such as motor insurance or financial products.

Jeep® will not pass your details to unrelated third party organisations except where we are legally obliged to do so (for example in relation to vehicle safety issues or financial regulation) or in order to prevent and detect fraud.

To help us to make credit decisions about you, to prevent fraud, to check your identity and to prevent money laundering, we may search the files of credit reference agencies who will record any credit searches on your file. We may also disclose details of how you conduct your account to such agencies. The information will be used by other credit grantors for making credit decisions about you and the people with whom you are financially associated, for fraud prevention, money laundering prevention and occasionally for tracing debtors.

YOUR CONSENT:

By submitting your information to Jeep®, you consent to the use of that information as set out in this policy. If we change our privacy policy we will post the changes on this page, and may place notices on other pages of the website, so that you may be aware of the information we collect and how we use it at all times. Continued use of the service will signify that you agree to any such changes.

If you give us information about another person, you confirm that the other person has appointed you to act on his/her behalf and has agreed that you can give consent on his/her behalf to the processing of his/her personal data in accordance with this policy.

If you use the 'forward to a friend' facility, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles UK Ltd will pass your name and email address to the friend you are forwarding the information to.

You also have the right to ask us for a copy of the information about you, which we hold on our systems. We may charge you a small fee for the provision of this information to cover administration costs.
