LightSpeedBid treats your VIN and license plate information as highly sensitive data because both are directly tied to your vehicle’s identity and can be misused if handled improperly. When you use the platform to sell my car, sell my junk car, or get a cash offer for a damaged vehicle, LightSpeedBid uses multiple security layers to protect all VIN related and plate related information.
VIN numbers are processed inside LightSpeedBid’s secure environment using encrypted transmission. When you enter your VIN into the system, the data is encrypted immediately and sent through SSL protected channels to LightSpeedBid’s valuation engine. This prevents outside access, interception, or manipulation of the VIN during submission.
Once stored, VIN data is kept in encrypted databases that are isolated from public systems. Only authorized system processes and compliance staff can access VIN records, and even then, access is strictly limited to the information required for offer generation and legal compliance. Buyers see your VIN only because state law requires VIN verification before a licensed dealer can legally purchase your vehicle.
License plate numbers are treated even more carefully. LightSpeedBid encrypts all plate numbers and stores them separately from personal identifying information. Buyers do not need your plate number for a junk or damaged vehicle transaction, so your plate details are not shared unless required by your state for transfer or cancellation purposes. If your state requires a plate return or cancellation document, LightSpeedBid provides you with direct access to complete that step without sharing plate data externally.
LightSpeedBid’s protection includes automated monitoring that triggers alerts if any unauthorized party attempts to access or export VIN or plate data. No VIN or plate information is ever sold, shared, or made visible to third parties outside the transaction.
This multi layer approach ensures your VIN, plate numbers, and related personal information remain private and secure.
