What happens to what you send us.

Last changed 10 November 2026.

Who is responsible

VINPassport is responsible for the details you send through this site. Write to info@passport.vin about anything on this page.

What and why

Only what you type into a form: the pilot request, the contact form or the lifestyle form. We use it to reply, and for the pilot request to arrange a call or a pilot. We do not add you to a mailing list unless the form says so, and we do not sell or share your details. The lifestyle form is the only one that leads to email updates, and only about lifestyle passports.

On what basis

Your consent, given by ticking the box on the form, which you can withdraw at any time by writing to us (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) and 7(3); POPIA s11(1)(a) and 11(2)(b)).

How it reaches us

The forms send nothing themselves. Each writes your message into an email in your own mail app, addressed to info@passport.vin, and you send it. No form service sits in between.

How long

We delete a pilot request or a message within twelve months of our last exchange if it does not lead to an agreement, and a lifestyle enquiry within twenty-four months of our last exchange; sooner if you ask.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete what we hold (GDPR Arts. 15 to 17; POPIA ss23 and 24), and complain to your data protection authority (opens in a new tab) or, in South Africa, the Information Regulator (opens in a new tab).

What the site itself does

No cookies, no analytics, no advertising, and every font is served from this site. The site is hosted on GitHub Pages, which keeps server logs under GitHub's own privacy statement (opens in a new tab). Two things talk to other services from your browser, and only when you use them: the live chain demo reads Midnight's public test-network indexer, and the explainer video on How it works streams from GitHub when you press play. The intake demo keeps the vehicles you add in your browser's session storage, gone when you close the tab.
