Of the almost 300 million cars that are in circulation in the U.S., the vast majority collect consumer’s personal information. Every time you connect your phone via USB or Bluetooth, your car is designed to download data and store it locally. The automotive industry is grossly behind when it comes to data privacy and safety, but that’s where Privacy4Cars comes in.
Privacy4Cars is the first (and only) privacy tech company focused on identifying the challenges posed by vehicle data. They create solutions to better protect consumers and businesses by offering improved privacy, safety, security, and compliance.
