Privacy Policy

MPGCheck ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website mpgcheck.com (the "Site"). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information when you use our Site, and the choices you have associated with that data.

Information We Collect

We do not require account registration and do not directly collect personally identifiable information (name, email, phone number, address) from visitors. The Site provides EPA fuel economy data and related vehicle information as a free public reference.

When you visit the Site, our hosting infrastructure (Vercel) may automatically log standard request data (IP address, user agent, timestamp, requested URL) for security and operational purposes. These logs are not used to identify individual visitors and are subject to Vercel's privacy policy.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies through the following third-party services. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect site functionality.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on prior visits to this Site and other websites on the Internet.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info.
• Learn more about how Google uses information from sites or apps that use their services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Google Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand aggregate site traffic patterns (e.g., page views, country, device type). Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this information. IP addresses are anonymized where supported. Learn more at Google's Privacy Policy.

Third-Party Data Sources

Vehicle data displayed on this Site is sourced from public databases, including:

• U.S. EPA / U.S. Department of Energy (FuelEconomy.gov) — fuel economy data
• NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) — safety ratings, recalls, complaints
• U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) — regional fuel prices

These sources have their own privacy policies. Linking to them from our Site does not imply endorsement.

Children's Privacy

Our Site is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided personal information, we will take steps to remove it.

Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or California, you have certain rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict its processing. Since we do not directly collect personally identifiable information, most of these rights are exercised through the third-party services we use (see Google's links above for opt-out controls).
