Registration to the CASTROL GUARANTEE website is completely voluntary. To the extent that you do, we rely on your active consent to process the personal data you provide us, in accordance with this Privacy Statement.
The personal information collected by Castrol on the CASTROL GUARANTEE portal includes your name and contact details, as well as your vehicle registration number, mileage, make and model.
Your personal data will only be used for the purposes of administering the guarantee, assessing your eligibility to the guarantee, and contact you with information on Castrol’s additional products and/or services if you have opted in thereto.

In the event of a claim, BP may also request scans or photos of the invoice from your vehicle service, copies of your vehicle service records and/or proof of ownership.

BP may send you marketing communications by email, in line with your marketing preferences expressed at the point of registration. If you no longer wish to receive such communications, please follow the opt-out instructions contained at the end of each marketing communication.
In order to run and administer the CASTROL GUARANTEE database and portal, Castrol uses the services of third party service providers, who might be granted access to your personal information (e.g third parties who provide technical support, process claims on our behalf, and send out our marketing communications where you have opted in). Where we use the services of such third-party service provider(s), any disclosure of your personal information will be on a strict need-to-know basis and will be subject to the third party acting only on our instructions and in accordance with the contractually required security measures. In accordance with applicable laws, you may ask to see a copy of the relevant contractual clauses protecting your personal data.
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law, or when disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, request from a regulator or any other legal process served on Castrol.
Castrol may disclose your personal data to other BP entities that may be located outside of the EEA. Where this is the case, your personal data shall remain at all-time protected under BP’s comprehensive, flexible, and global compliance framework which implements appropriate measures and safeguards (including EU standard contractual clauses) to ensure that your personal information is protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
Where BP’s Data Processors are transferring your personal data outside of the EEA, such transfer will be subject to appropriate safeguards, which may be the standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission.
