VIN lookup and factory evidence

You can look up a VIN without an account. We send the VIN to the manufacturer’s window-sticker service when a valid stored sticker is not already available. We preserve successful OEM PDFs, extracted text, factory specifications and parsing information so results can be checked and reused. Factory evidence for a VIN is reused across lookups; it is not an owner-private shopping record.

Lookup operation records may include the submitted VIN, timing, outcome and processing information. The production site also uses aggregate web analytics to understand usage. These operational records are separate from your private shopping notes and are not a complete vehicle history.

Accounts and Saved vehicles

When you sign in, the authentication service processes your account identity and session information. CDJR VIN uses your account identifier and available email address to support your session and associate Saved VINs with you. Saving a VIN does not require a price, mileage, dealer or listing URL.

Your private shopping information

Private shopping entry and a private My Shopping List are available to signed-in users. You may choose to enter Asking price and CAD/USD currency, mileage and km/mi unit, dealer/seller, stock number, optional listing URL and location. Additional private fields may include shopping status, notes, salesperson/contact and negotiated price with its currency.

In V1, user-entered shopping data is private to its owner. It does not become another user’s market intelligence, public listing evidence or shared market statistics. Your personal notes, contacts and negotiated offers are private shopping state.

Listing and dealer facts are information supplied by you or a third party. They do not become OEM factory facts or claims verified by CDJR VIN. Storing a listing URL does not mean ChryslerLookup scrapes or mirrors that page. Shopping entry stores structured facts and an optional link, not a copy of the third-party page.

Retention and deletion

When account deletion is processed, V1 owner-private shopping records, listings, observations and associated private shopping state are deleted. Saved relationships and My Shopping List memberships are also removed. Your entered shopping information is not retained as general market intelligence.

Saved vehicles and My Shopping List are independent: removing a vehicle from one does not remove it from the other. Removing a vehicle from My Shopping List does not delete your private deal details, notes, status or recorded observations for it; they remain private to you and stay available from that vehicle’s detail page, including older retained records for the same vehicle, which are shown read-only as earlier history. A removed vehicle returns to My Shopping List only when you add it again, and a Rejected or Purchased record returns to the active list only after you change its status yourself.

Account deletion does not mean the shared OEM factory evidence for a VIN is removed. We do not promise a fixed retention period or the same deletion treatment for unrelated operational logs. There is currently no self-service account-deletion control; see the contact section below for requests.

If licensed provider or dealer-feed information is added later, it will be a separate source class with rights and retention rules specific to that source. It will not silently turn your private manual entries into shared provider data.

Service operation and security

Hosting, database/storage, authentication and analytics services help operate CDJR VIN. Access controls are intended to restrict private shopping records to their owner in normal product use; operating the service can also require authorized administrative access. No online service can guarantee complete security. Avoid entering sensitive information that is unnecessary for your vehicle shopping.

Optional contributions

Looking up, saving and comparing vehicles is free. If optional contributions are offered, they happen on an external hosted payment provider and are subject to that provider’s own terms and privacy policy. CDJR VIN does not collect payment-card details, and does not send your Saved VINs, private shopping details or account details to the payment provider.

Independent service and policy updates

CDJR VIN is an independent tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by Stellantis, FCA US or FCA Canada. External listing sites have their own policies. We may update this policy as the product changes and will show the updated date here.

Questions and contact

For questions about these policies or to ask about account deletion, email cdjrvin@gmail.com. There is currently no self-service account-deletion control, so deletion requests are handled by email.
