An affordable and simple compliance software for the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) that caters to the unique needs of dealerships.
The all-in-one privacy compliance solution for Virginia dealers.
Peace of Mind + Compliance Guarantee
Peace of mind for an annual cost that is less than the penalty for just one single VCDPA violation. How’s that for a value proposition? Plus, under our Compliance Guarantee, we'll pay any fines or penalties assessed against your dealership by the State.
Exactly what you need and nothing more.
Achieve Total VCDPA Compliance in Days
Contains everything you need to ensure you're fully compliant with the VCDPA. No unnecessary features, complex workflows or headaches. Just the necessary components to get you compliant in no time.
AFFORDABLE.
If your dealership has shopped the VCDPA software marketplace, you've probably been quoted with some outlandishly high prices and setup fees. We offer a transparent, one-price model that makes our software affordable for dealers of all sizes.
SIMPLE.
You shouldn't have to hire a full-time employee to administer your VCDPA software. Our system allows you to achieve total compliance in a matter of days, and with automated consumer request fulfillment, it makes it incredibly easy to keep it that way.
COMPLIANT.
Unfortunately, the majority of software products are missing critical VCDPA compliance components. Our system was built by experts who specialize in dealership law and compliance, and who know the VCDPA statutes inside and out.

Frequently Asked Questions
We've compiled a list of answers to common questions.
Probably not. Website providers aren’t legal or compliance experts and normally don’t provide the technology necessary to automate complex legal notices, 3rd-party cookie blocking, responding to global privacy controls (GPCs), or required identity verification. Your website provider is also unlikely to provide you with any sort of vendor management or employee training tool. Finally, most out-of-the box privacy policy templates are either non-compliant or too generic to be accurate for your dealership’s unique collection practices.
Probably not. While some privacy laws like the CPA and VDCPA have exemptions for “financial institutions” under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), dealers act outside the scope of a financial institution under the GLBA by conducting cash transactions, servicing vehicles, operating collision centers, renting vehicles, and online advertising. Relying on a GLBA exemption is risky at best and certainly not a best practice.
No. We are an automation and technology software that offers a full suite of advanced tools to help you comply with the technical aspects of your state’s privacy laws. We don’t just simply audit your policies or provide compliance consulting (though we do that too!)
Yes. We have our tools successfully installed on every major dealership website provider, including Dealer.com, DealerFire, DealerInspire, DealerOn, FoxDealer, Jazel, Sincro, and many more.
Around 2 weeks. In the first week, we schedule one or two implementation calls where we talk you through setting up the software. The next week is spent working with your website provider to install our tools. Then you’re live!
Don’t worry, privacy compliance won’t turn into your full-time job. Even large dealership groups usually spend less than 30 minutes per week in our software, and most of that time is spent processing consumer privacy requests. Further, our software is so foolproof and easy to use that you can get away with assigning the responsibility to pretty much any employee in the dealership.
