Coches.net Data Actor
Data policy and removal requests
This page covers the data collected by the Coches.net Car Listings & Dealer Scraper, an Apify actor that extracts publicly accessible vehicle listings from coches.net.
Private sellers' phone numbers are never collected
Around 40 % of listings on coches.net are posted by private individuals,
and the site exposes their mobile numbers in the page source.
This actor never returns them. When a listing belongs to a private
seller, the phone field is null, always. There is no setting that
turns this off.
Article 14 of the GDPR requires informing each individual within one month when their personal data is obtained indirectly. At the scale of a marketplace that is not achievable, so the data is not collected.
What is collected
- Vehicle details: make, model, year, mileage, power, fuel type, environmental badge
- Price, financing terms and the marketplace's own price valuation
- Province, city and region of the listing
- Photos published with the listing
- For dealers only: business name, published business phone, address, postcode and ratings
What is not collected
- Private sellers' phone numbers or names
- Anything behind a login — no account is ever used
- Data from pages that coches.net's
