Privacy policy
What we collect, why we collect it, and what we never do with it.
Who we are
NaiCar is operated by TechnoBird, Rawalpindi, Pakistan. When this policy says “we”, that is who it means.
Questions about anything here, or about the data we hold on you: [email protected].
Last updated 30 August 2026. If we change something that matters, we will say so on this page before it takes effect.
What we collect
Your name and email address, and your phone number if you give it. What you post, save and search for. Messages you send through enquiries, and the IP address they were sent from — that last one is kept so we can act on abuse and impersonation.
Technical information that arrives with any web request: your IP address, approximate location, device and browser type. We use it for security, fraud prevention and making the site work on your device.
If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address and profile photo from Google — never your Google password.
What we do with it
Run the marketplace: show your ads, deliver enquiries, calculate the price guide from ad data, and send the alerts you asked for.
Your phone number appears on an ad only if you chose to show it, and it is revealed only on the ad itself after a deliberate tap — never in search results, never in bulk.
Notifications — email or on your device — are sent only for things you turned on, and every channel can be turned off where you turned it on.
AI features
When you describe a search in your own words, the words you typed are sent to OpenAI, our model provider, which turns them into search filters and returns them to us. We send the search text and our own list of makes, models and cities — never your name, your email, your account or anything else about you. The result is shown to you as filter chips you can remove before you search.
The price guide is not a language model and never was. It is a calculation over what comparable ads asked and sold for, and it reads no personal data at all.
Dictation is your browser’s own speech recognition, not ours. Your microphone audio never reaches NaiCar — but on most browsers it is sent to the browser’s maker to be transcribed, under their privacy policy rather than this one. Your browser asks permission before the microphone is used, and the mic only appears where a browser supports it.
Paying for promotion
Posting an ad is free. If you pay to promote one, we record the order, the amount, and the reference the payment carried.
We never see or store your card details. Paying by card hands you to Bank Alfalah’s own payment page, and only the outcome comes back to us. Paying by bank transfer means we hold the reference you declared, so a person here can match it against the statement.
Cookies and storage
We use browser storage to keep you signed in, remember your theme, and keep device-only conveniences like your recently-viewed list — that list never leaves your device. If you mark a device as trusted for two-factor sign-in, that marker deliberately outlives a sign-out; clearing your browser data removes it.
We do not run third-party advertising trackers on NaiCar.
Retention and security
Ads and messages are kept while your account exists, because they are the record of your sales. Closing your account removes your ads from the site and signs you out everywhere — it hides them, it does not erase them.
Some records outlive a closed account because they have to: order and payment records for accounting, moderation records where an ad was reported or removed, records connected to a vehicle sale for as long as the law may require them, and anything under a lawful preservation request.
You can ask us to erase what is not in one of those categories. Deactivating instead of closing keeps everything and is reversible — if you are not sure, that is the safer choice.
Passwords are stored only as salted hashes. Access tokens are short-lived and revocable, and a sign-out revokes them everywhere.
Deleting your account and your data
You can close your account yourself at any time, from Account and data in your account settings. Closing it removes your ads from the site, signs you out of every device, and destroys your stored password, so it cannot be undone.
If you only want a break, deactivate instead. That takes your ads off the site and stops sign-in without deleting anything, and a code we email you brings it all back.
You do not have to close your account to get rid of data. Ads, saved searches, alerts, photos and your phone number can all be removed on their own, from your account settings, and anything without a self-serve control can be erased on request — email [email protected] from your account’s address and say what you want removed.
You can also ask what we hold about you, or ask for it to be corrected, at the same address.
Age
NaiCar is for adults buying and selling vehicles, and is not directed at children. You need to be 18 to hold an account. If you believe a child has given us personal information, write to [email protected] and we will remove it.
Your choices
You can edit or delete any ad, change alert and notification preferences, verify or change your contact details, or close your account entirely — all from your account settings.
This policy is governed by the laws of Pakistan.
