Jaguar Land Rover may collect or receive personal data via several sources. Main sources of handled personal data are:
• Our websites serve primarily as information portals to help you better understand our cars, products and services. We also, however, offer a number of website functions that collect information you provide to us when you ask to be kept informed, to be added to lists, events or experiences, or when you buy goods or book or request services. The main ways we collect information from our websites:
• When you visit, or use and interact with our websites, for example to take steps to request or use any of our online-available services (including but not limited to website shops, or our experiences), where you find out more about an event or experience or where you request any other information. Click on the “Tell me more” box to find out more about the data we may receive from you directly;.
• When you enter into personalised web areas and use our websites as a way to engage with us, as a place where you can ask for personalised reminders, receive information about your vehicle, and/or request vehicle service or other information to be notified to you;
• When you provide information to or interact with any of Jaguar Land Rover careers pages;
• When you contact us (via contact details or forms made available on our websites), or send us correspondence.
• Our apps and hosted web pages: Where you connect with us, for example by visiting a Jaguar Land Rover area at an event or exhibition, we may make it possible for you to enter your information with us via an app or web page, for example, to enter into a prize draw, to be kept informed of products or services, or to provide us with information in connection with event or exhibit planning or attendance.
• Vehicle related data from independent third party sources: When you own a JLR vehicle, information connected with you and your vehicle (including the vehicle identification number or VIN) may be shared as is appropriate between our network of retailers, repairers, importers, insurers (such as vehicle theft detection/security configurations), accident assistance providers, roadside assistance providers, credit providers and credit hire and repair providers, and used to inform any personalised web areas you register to receive. The information that is shared will depend on factors like who you have bought your vehicle from and the services that you request from us throughout the period of your vehicle ownership. Please visit Section 4 (Who we share personal data with) below to find out more. Please also visit our separate InControl terms and privacy policies (here for Jaguar: https://incontrol.jaguar.com and here for Land Rover: https://incontrol.landrover.com) for more information on vehicle data.
• Third party support services: For the performance of our website services and to allow us to maintain appropriate records and to support ongoing queries, we may receive data about you or your website activities from our group companies or third party providers (e.g. to confirm website payments, to track website order deliveries, to appropriately update our data records and to support website maintenance). More information on our categories of suppliers is provided at Section 4 (Who we share personal data with) below.
• Device data: Our websites automatically take certain device information in order to optimise your website experience (for example, allowing our website to automatically adapt screen size as appropriate for the device you are using to browse the website). This data also supports our website analytics. More information on automated data collection and cookies can be found in our Cookies policy, available via this link.

In addition, when searching for the details and locations of Jaguar and Land Rover retailers or service centres through our ‘Retailer Locator’ functionality we will ask for the Town, Postcode, or Location you wish to return relevant results for. The information you provide is also not stored by Jaguar Land Rover and is only used to return matching results close to the location / query you have searched for.
• Marketing data: Your contact details, marketing preferences, demographic, lifestyle and behavioural variables or other information may be shared with us by retailers or other third party partners, where there is appropriate notice and in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

• Social Media & Google: We may also receive information about you when you interact with us online, for example, by following, commenting, submitting a web form, or sending a personal message to our official social media pages (e.g. TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Facebook or Instagram). This may give us access to any information you have shared publicly or provided with your consent on these platforms. For more information on the use of your data by these social media platforms, please refer to their privacy policies, which are linked in the annex at the end of this policy.
• Public sources of data: We may use public sources of data, for example, to support website functionality (e.g. to support authentication or fraud checks), and/or to maintain the accuracy of the data we hold. For example, we may make checks from time to time with the DVLA to check our vehicle owner information remains up to date.
