Data rights in automotive haven’t always been clear. But the Arizona Dealer Law is changing that. It provides clear guidelines, has been upheld in Federal Court, and is widely viewed as the template for other states to mimic.

We believe the automotive industry will make faster strides toward the common good when dealers, dealer groups, and technology partners align our practices and agreements to mirror the AZ Dealer Law.

To fight for rights, you need to know what your rights are - or should be. Here are the links to relevant dealer data laws in a number of states.
