Get DMV Appointments ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.
Our Promise to You
We will never sell, rent, trade, or give away your personal data. Not today, not in the future, not under any circumstances within our control. Your information exists for one purpose: to book your DPS appointment. Once that is done, it is deleted.
The only exception is when required by the law of the land: a valid court order, a lawful subpoena, or a formal request from law enforcement agencies with proper legal authority. Even then, we will only disclose the minimum information required and will notify you unless prohibited by law from doing so.
This is not fine print. This is a brand promise from a family business that built this service for our own family first. We treat your data the way we would want ours treated.
