# Privacy & Data Ownership

Your privacy is central to the Carnomaly experience. Our platform is designed so that you remain in control of your data at every stage.

* **Blockchain storage** – Vehicle history records are written directly to CarrChain. Once recorded, the data is permanent, tamper-proof, and tied to the vehicle itself. In practice, this means the vehicle “owns” its history, not Carnomaly or any third party. But it is stored on a public blockchain.
* **Anonymous communications** – When you interact with dealers through the Carnomaly App, your identity remains private. Dealers only see anonymised information until you share your details at the point of sale.
* **We don’t store your data** – Carnomaly does not hold your personal information. Sensitive records either remain on-chain or in your direct control.
* **Data travels with the vehicle** – Service history and ownership records follow the car, not the previous owner. This ensures transparency for buyers and helps sellers achieve fairer valuations.
