Your privacy matters to us, and we take it seriously. Customer personal information is collected and kept on file for use by our dealership and its subsidiaries. Outside of the situations described below, we don’t sell, rent, or trade that information to third parties, and we never do so without your consent. Be aware that third parties may still collect personally identifiable information about your online activity over time and across other websites while you use this one.

Marketing our vehicles and services, and understanding how our sites get used, means teaming up with third-party advertising and analytics partners. That can involve tracking technology placed on our properties that gathers and shares information about you with those partners, or us passing along your name, email address, and other contact details to them for advertising, related services, and analytics purposes.

Once we’ve disclosed information to a partner like that, they’re free to use it under their own privacy statement. We’d encourage you to look into the privacy practices of any advertising or analytics partner whose services show up on our sites.

From time to time, we team up with select retailers and other companies to offer our visitors expanded services. That kind of relationship can mean sharing certain interactive site functions — an email reminder service, say. Whatever information you provide through those functions may then be accessible to both our dealership and the partner involved.

Certain functions on our behalf — running an email service, managing a special promotion — may be handled by other companies or individuals we engage. Their access is limited to whatever personal information their specific job requires, and they’re barred from using or storing it for anything beyond that. No subscriber or visitor will ever get unsolicited email from an agent acting for us.

Should we sell or transfer part of our business assets, customer information could be included among what changes hands in that deal. And if nearly all of our assets get acquired, customer information could likewise transfer as part of that acquisition.

Specific personal information may be disclosed when we believe, in good faith, that doing so is required to comply with the law, or that it’s necessary to protect our site users, the sites themselves, or the public at large.

Outside of what’s already described in this Privacy Policy, you’ll be told any time personally identifiable information about you might go to a third party, and you’ll get the chance to say no to that sharing.

Handing us your mobile number, or opting in to text messages, doesn’t open the door for us to share that information elsewhere. We don’t sell, rent, or trade your mobile information or SMS opt-in consent, and text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are carved out of every other category described in this policy — that information stays with us and is never passed to a third party for marketing or promotional purposes.

Handing over your information, or reaching out to us by text or phone yourself, means you’re agreeing to receive texts, emails, and phone calls — manual, automated, and pre-recorded — from Dean McCrary Kia and every affiliate, our parent company, manufacturers, and distributor partners included. Artificial intelligence may power some of these informational and marketing messages, built to make your experience as guest-centric as we can manage. Standard message and data rates may apply.

Plenty of reasonable ways exist to opt out or unsubscribe from all of it, including a form built into our website. Look for that form in the site navigation under “About Us,” labeled “Unsubscribe,” at the bottom of the homepage, or on this very privacy policy page. For more, visit Manage Communications or dial (601) 544-4007.

Opting out of future communications from us is your right at any point. Our sites give you that option right where personal information is being requested, or through other means we point out. Your preferences can also be updated anytime through our Manage Communications page.

Registering on our site creates a personal data record accessible only through the unique password tied to it. Keeping that information intact means never disclosing or revealing your password to any third party.

Chat rooms, forums, message boards, or news groups may be offered on our sites from time to time. Anything disclosed in those spaces becomes public information unless we state otherwise, so think twice before sharing anything personal there.

Links to other websites appear throughout our sites, and we bear no responsibility for the privacy practices or content found on any of them. For your own protection, review the privacy policy of any site you reach through a link on ours.

Visiting our site from anywhere outside the U.S. still routes your connection through servers based in the U.S. Whatever information you provide along the way gets processed and kept on our web server and other internal systems, all located within the U.S.
