How the App Handles Your Information
SHANGHAI AUTOS does not automatically submit orders or service requests to a server.

- Prepare a vehicle service or quotation request
- Create a prefilled email for your review
- Help SHANGHAI AUTOS respond to your inquiry
- Save a basic request summary locally when you choose that option
- Provide customer support

The app opens an installed email application with prepared details. You must review and send the email yourself. Information is received by SHANGHAI AUTOS only if you choose to send the email.
We do not sell or rent personal information.
Local Data Storage
If you choose to save a request summary, basic information may be stored locally on your device using private application preferences.
Local information may include:
- Selected service
- Basic vehicle details
- Preferred schedule
- Request status or summary
- Information required to reopen the saved request
This information is not automatically uploaded to a SHANGHAI AUTOS server.
You can remove locally stored information by using any available deletion option inside the app, clearing the app's storage through Android settings, or uninstalling the app.
Email and External Applications
When you contact SHANGHAI AUTOS, the app may open your selected email application. Your use of that application is governed by its provider's privacy policy.
After you send an email, SHANGHAI AUTOS may receive the information included in it. We use that information only to respond to your inquiry, provide support, confirm availability, or discuss requested automotive services.
Sending an inquiry does not guarantee a booking, price, service time, parts availability, or vehicle delivery date. These details must be confirmed separately by SHANGHAI AUTOS.
Remote Images and Internet Access
The app uses internet access to display automotive images hosted by external image providers, such as Unsplash.
When your device requests an image, the image provider may receive standard technical information, such as:
- Internet Protocol address
- Device or browser request information
- Request date and time
- The image resource requested
This processing is controlled by the relevant external provider and is subject to its privacy practices. The app does not use remote images for advertising or user profiling.
Previously loaded images may be cached on your device to improve performance.
Payment Information
SHANGHAI AUTOS does not provide an online payment gateway and does not collect:
- Payment card numbers
- Bank account details
- Digital wallet credentials
- Online banking passwords
If a service is confirmed, available payment arrangements—such as cash on delivery or payment at pickup—are handled separately from the app.
Services Not Provided
The app does not provide:
- Financial or investment services
- Loans or credit services
- Cryptocurrency services
- Gambling or betting
- Medical advice

- When required to comply with applicable law or a valid legal request
- When necessary to prevent fraud, abuse, or security threats
We do not share personal information with advertising networks or data brokers.

No electronic storage or transmission method is completely secure. Users should avoid entering payment credentials, passwords, national identity numbers, or other unnecessary sensitive information in a service request.
