What we do with your information

DUD Rents, trading as DUD Rents, rents exotic and luxury cars across South Florida. When this policy says “we” it means that business, and only that business.

You can reach us about anything on this page at connect@dudrents.com or (561) 517-3771.

Only what is needed to rent you a car and get it back safely.

• When you book: your name, email, phone number, the dates, the car, and where you want it delivered. Anything you type into the notes.
• Before you drive: your driving licence and proof of full coverage (comprehensive & collision). We look at these to confirm you can legally drive the car.
• To take payment: your card is handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. We are told only that a hold succeeded and the last four digits.
• If you offer us a car: the details and photographs you send through the investor form.
• When you read an article: a count that a page was viewed. No cookie, no profile, nothing tied to you.

We do not buy lists, we do not track you across other websites, and there is no advertising pixel on this site.

• To confirm your booking and get the car to you.
• To text and email you about that booking: the confirmation, the handover, and anything that changes.
• To check you are eligible to drive the car.
• To keep the records a business is required to keep.

That is the whole list. We do not send marketing to people who have only booked a car, and we do not sell your information to anybody, for any amount, ever.

Four companies, each doing one job:

• Stripe takes the card hold. They hold your card details; we do not.
• Twilio sends the text messages.
• Our email provider sends the confirmations.
• Our hosting provider runs the website and the database.

If a car is owned by one of our investment partners, they are told that their car is out and for how long. They are not told who you are, what you paid, or where it went.

We would also hand over information if the law required it: a court order, or a genuine emergency involving somebody’s safety.

Dudley films handovers and the cars for social media. You are asked at checkout whether you are happy to appear, and it is a separate, optional tick.

Saying no costs you nothing. The price is the same, the car is the same, and you will not be asked again at the kerb. If you agree and later change your mind, tell us and anything you appear in comes down.

• Booking records: kept as long as tax and insurance rules require, which in practice is several years.
• Licence and insurance documents: only as long as needed to verify the rental.
• Investor enquiries: until you ask us to remove them, or we have plainly not gone ahead.

Email or call us and we will do any of the following:

• Tell you exactly what we hold about you.
• Correct anything wrong.
• Delete it, unless we are required to keep a booking record for tax or insurance.
• Stop texting or emailing you about anything but a live booking.

No form, no portal. Ask a person and a person will do it.

The site runs over HTTPS. Card details never touch our systems. The admin side is password protected and only Dudley has access.

No system is perfect, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. If something happened that affected your information, we would tell you.

You have to be 18 to rent from us, so this site is not aimed at children and we do not knowingly collect anything about them.

If this changes, the date at the top changes with it. Nothing here applies retroactively to a rental that has already happened. See also our terms of service.
