No sensitive information is required to register as a buyer/bidder or seller/lessor. The information collected, name, zip code, contact email, contact phone, self-reported credit level, local tax rate, market sector and annual use mileage, form the basis of your online password-protected profile. Having your profile stored here keeps you from reentering the information every time you make a calculation, switch vehicles or request information/quotations from us.
SECURITY 1st!
SSL / TLS transfer of sensitive data - credit/lease application information, employment information. Auto Lease Auctions, Inc. operate under its parent root certificate, logic-sphere.com, to provide the highest level of encryption security and cryptographic keys for sensitive, personal information. Unless specifically requested by you, AutoLeaseAuctions.com does not generate or keep a printed copy of sensitive information. Furthermore, AutoLeaseAuctions.com's bank-level security software transfers your encrypted data directly to the applicable loan or lease lender, bypassing the seller, employees and all other human beings involved in your transaction. Electronic information is then encrypted and archived in a civil document vault for the duration of time required by the industry and government.

TRANSFER OF FUNDS

In most cases, Auto Lease Auctions is collecting a sizeable earnest deposit in escrow for an automobile in which case card payments are not allowed. Therefore, we have setup WebChecks™ by Logic-Sphere, a totally secure payment method because no sensitive (non public) information is required. WebChecks™ is one of the oldest and most established online check systems with a perfect security record. If you prefer, you can also make payments directly to us at any Bank of America Branch in the USA. AutoLeaseAuctions.com Treasury is the only payment repository in our system of members, vendors, sellers, et al. Please report any attempts to collect funds from you for any vehicle transaction to us, 800 339-6989, as soon as possible.
