Who is responsible for your information
AutoLab Vehicle Solutions Ltd is the controller for personal information handled directly by the business. AutoLab is registered in England and Wales under company number 11935199 and operates from Unit 12 Leaside, Aycliffe Business Park, Newton Aycliffe, County Durham, DL5 6DE. Privacy enquiries can be sent to [email protected].
Information that may be collected
This can include your name, contact details, vehicle registration and specification, enquiry or booking information, service history supplied for the job, diagnostic information and correspondence. The website may also receive ordinary technical information needed to deliver and protect the service, such as device, browser and server-log data.
How information is used
Information is used to answer enquiries, assess vehicle compatibility, provide quotations, manage bookings, supply workshop or trade services, maintain service records, meet legal and accounting obligations, prevent misuse and improve the reliability of the website and customer service.
Lawful reasons for processing
Depending on the circumstances, processing is necessary to take steps before or perform a contract, comply with a legal obligation, pursue legitimate business interests or act on consent. Consent can be withdrawn where it is the basis being relied upon.
Service providers and external links
The website links to or uses separate services for online booking, the dealer portal, vehicle lookup, maps, WhatsApp and social media. Information submitted to those services is also handled under the relevant provider’s privacy terms. AutoLab uses suppliers only where needed to operate, secure or support its services and does not sell personal information.
Retention and security
Information is kept only for as long as reasonably required for the purpose collected, workshop records, legal obligations, dispute handling and legitimate business administration. Reasonable organisational and technical safeguards are used, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
Your rights
UK data-protection law may give you rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or portability, depending on the circumstances. Contact [email protected] to make a request. You may also raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
Updates
This notice was last updated on 6 September 2026. It may be revised when the website, suppliers or legal requirements change.
