Celeem is a free app for listing cars, motorcycles and parts in the USA, run by Dealer Canvas LLC, 2108 N St Ste N, Sacramento, CA 95816, USA. This policy says what we collect, why, who sees it, and how you delete it. It is part of the Terms of Use.
1. What we collect
Account: information you provide to create and access your account, including your email and credentials for the sign-in methods offered by Celeem. We send no text messages (SMS).
Profile: your nickname (required); your phone or WhatsApp number (at least one is required on every post and purchase request: it is the only way users reach each other); whether you sell as a private seller or a dealership; and, if you add them, your profile picture, a few words about you, and your shop's address and website.
Posts and purchase requests: the text, price, details and pictures you add, including pictures you edit in Car Studio, and the VIN when you give one on a car or motorcycle post.
Location: with your permission, we use your phone's location to show posts near you, measure distances, and set your city. You can decline permission and enter a ZIP code instead. A post keeps the city or ZIP area selected for it. This describes location collected through the app's location permission; addresses, landmarks, contact details, or location information that you include in submitted text or images are part of your content, as explained in section 3.
Your activity: the users you follow and block, the posts you report, the reports others make about your posts or account, and your activity on the service, such as the listings or profiles whose contact details you view.
Technical connection and security information: Firebase services process connection information, including IP addresses and user-agent information, to provide authentication and backend services and help prevent abuse. Firebase App Check and its configured Apple or Google verification provider process app/device integrity information and security tokens to check the authenticity of requests. This information is used to operate and protect the service. The app also reads its installed version locally for the Settings display.
Website visits and cookies
The celeem.com pages (coming soon and legal) have no sign-up, payment or form. They are delivered through OpenAI Sites hosting and Cloudflare, which process request information such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested to deliver and protect the site, and may set security cookies (for example Cloudflare's __cf_bm) that are not advertising trackers. The pages carry no advertising pixels or third-party analytics. They do not respond separately to a browser's Do Not Track signal, and because we do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, there is no website activity for a Global Privacy Control signal to stop. You can manage or delete cookies in your browser.
2. Why we use it
To run your account and show your posts, and to process and use submitted content to operate and promote Celeem within the content license in the Terms. That license does not authorize new promotional use of deleted content.
To show posts near you and the distance to them.
To review posts, act on reports, stop scams, duplicates and banned content, and close accounts that break the Terms. A review checks nothing about the vehicle, its title or the seller; Celeem verifies no one.
To create and display notices inside Celeem, such as notices about new posts from users you follow, and to provide account-related email, including verification and password-reset messages.
To answer you when you contact us.
To protect Celeem, its users and the public: to enforce the Terms, prevent fraud and abuse, and protect our rights and property.
To understand how Celeem is used, with information aggregated or de-identified so that it no longer identifies you; we may use and share such information freely.
To obey the law and answer valid legal requests.
3. What others see
Your nickname, your seller type as your own statement, and your profile picture, your words about you and your shop's address and website if you added them. The city shown on your profile comes from your live posts.
Your posts and purchase requests, their pictures and details (including the VIN you provide), and the city or ZIP area selected for the post. The app does not publish the precise coordinates collected through location permission as a listing address. Text, images, landmarks, documents, or metadata you submit may nevertheless reveal a location or other identifying information. Review content before publishing it.
Phone and WhatsApp numbers you add to a profile, listing or purchase request are public marketplace contact information. At least one is required to publish. Celeem has no chat, private messaging or email relay. Adding a number authorizes its disclosure to users for marketplace inquiries. Add only a number you own or may publish, and none you do not want disclosed; a business number may be used instead.
Contact buttons, sign-in screens and blocking are app controls, not a guarantee of confidentiality: a number written in text or shown in a picture is visible without them, a blocked user still sees your posts (the app hides your call and WhatsApp buttons from that user), and people who obtain a number may save, copy or use it outside Celeem, including in ways the Terms prohibit. Removing a number or post, deleting an account or blocking a user cannot retrieve copies already obtained.
Your account email is not a public profile field. If you separately include an email address or other contact information in text, images, or other content you publish, other users may see that submitted information.
4. What we never do
We never sell your personal data.
We never share it for advertising by others.
We never ask for your bank or card details; Celeem takes no payments.
5. Who helps us
Website hosting and security: OpenAI Sites hosting and Cloudflare deliver and protect celeem.com and process the website request and security information described in the website privacy section.
Google Firebase and Google Cloud: provide account authentication, database and photo storage, backend functions, and the stored notices displayed inside Celeem. Firebase Authentication supports account-verification and password-reset emails. See Firebase privacy and security information.
Apple and Google app-integrity services: Firebase App Check is configured to use Google Play Integrity on Android and Apple App Attest, with DeviceCheck fallback, on Apple devices. The applicable service validates app/device integrity information to help protect access to the backend.
Firebase Crashlytics receives a report when the app crashes or freezes: the screen, the action, the error, the device model and OS, the app version and a random install id; no personal data.
YouTube (Google): provides embedded video playback when you use that feature. Loading or playing an embedded video involves a connection to Google/YouTube and processing of information under Google's Privacy Policy, including relevant connection, device, and playback information. These are third-party services, distinct from Celeem's account and listing database.
Authorities, when the law requires it, to protect a person from harm, or to protect Celeem's rights and property.
A new owner, if Celeem is sold or merged; this policy still applies to your data.
Car Studio: the image-processing models are bundled with the app and run on the device. That processing does not itself require sending the photo to an external photo-editing service. Photos submitted with a listing are handled through the photo-storage service described above.
Processing locations
Information may be processed and stored in the United States and in other countries where our providers operate, under this policy and applicable law. Firebase Authentication processes data in the United States only; other Firebase services may use the locations Firebase describes.
6. Retention and deletion
Dealer Canvas LLC keeps personal information for as long as your account is open and as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes in this policy. We may keep some information after that where the law requires or permits it or for legitimate business purposes, such as preventing fraud, enforcing account restrictions, resolving disputes, keeping records and preserving evidence. A deletion request therefore does not always remove every record. Backup copies may follow a different deletion cycle.
Edit your profile, and add or remove your picture, your words about you, your address, your website or your phone or WhatsApp number, at any time.
Turn location off in your phone settings; enter a ZIP code instead.
In-app notices: notices described here appear inside Celeem; they are distinct from operating-system push notifications.
Account deletion: follow the instructions on our Delete account page. Requests may require verification and are subject to applicable legal deadlines and exceptions.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information by emailing developer@dealercanvas.com. Include the account email and describe your request; do not send your password. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify identity or authority. Depending on applicable law, you may also have rights to portability, to opt out of certain processing, to restrict certain uses of sensitive information, or to appeal a refusal. Requests are handled subject to applicable legal deadlines, exceptions, and verification requirements. Where required by law, we explain a refusal and the available appeal process. Nothing in this policy limits nonwaivable rights.
Representatives, appeals and fair treatment
Where the law permits, an authorized representative may submit a request for you; we may ask for proof of authority and may confirm the request with you. If we refuse a request, you may appeal by emailing the same address with the subject “Privacy request appeal”; we will answer within the time the law allows and tell you how to complain to a regulator where that right applies. We do not discriminate or retaliate against you for exercising privacy rights.
8. Security
We use the protections Firebase provides, rules that limit who reads what, and review of posts. No system is perfect; tell us at developer@dealercanvas.com if you see a problem.
9. Children
Celeem is for people 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If we learn of one, we close the account and erase its data, subject to the lawful retention exceptions in section 6 and applicable law.
10. Changes
We may change this policy. We will post the new version with its date and give any notice or obtain any consent the law requires.
