Information reaches BarkyAuto in two ways: details submitted directly and details gathered automatically. Submitted details include the name, email address, phone number, and password provided when creating an account or sending a message, along with vehicle and coverage preferences shared while requesting quotes.
Automatically gathered details include browser type, device information, pages visited, and general usage patterns. This information helps the website function properly and highlights where the experience can improve.
Collected information supports the core purpose of this website: matching visitors with relevant auto insurance quotes and coverage options. Specific uses include:
This website uses cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, keep sessions active, and understand how visitors move through the pages. Browsers can be set to refuse cookies or signal when one is being placed. Turning cookies off may limit certain features, but the main content remains accessible.
Personal information is shared only where it serves the request that brought a visitor here or where the law requires it. That means sharing with insurance providers and licensed partners in order to produce accurate quotes, with service vendors that keep this website running, and with authorities when a valid legal demand applies.
Every partner receiving information is expected to protect it with the same care described in this policy.
Reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards protect the information handled through this website. No online transmission is completely immune to risk, so submitting only the details needed for a quote is always a sound habit. Any suspected misuse of an account should be reported promptly using the contact details below.
Personal information stays on file only as long as it serves the purpose it was collected for, or as long as the law requires. When information is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymized so it can no longer identify anyone.
Control over personal information remains with the person it describes. Available choices include:
Requests can be made through any of the contact methods listed at the end of this policy.

This website is intended for adults seeking auto insurance information and is not directed at children. Personal information is not knowingly collected from minors. If such information appears to have been submitted, it will be removed promptly once identified.
This policy may change as the website evolves or as legal requirements shift. Updates appear on this page with a refreshed date at the top. Checking back periodically keeps you informed about how personal information is handled.
