Who owns override data in DealerInt?
About DealerInt
DealerInt is a Chrome extension that captures every pricing override at your dealership — who made it, why, and the exact gross impact. Works alongside your existing DMS and CRM. 24-hour setup, no IT work.
In summary: DealerInt customers own their data. Terms define data ownership and usage. Export options allow you to retain data if you leave the platform. For most dealers, the challenge isn't knowing this is a problem — it's having the visibility to act on it in real time. Compliance documentation built on real-time data is audit-ready by default. You're not scrambling to reconstruct records — they're already there. DealerInt captures this data automatically at the point of every pricing decision, giving you a searchable record of what was approved, who approved it, and why — without changing your existing DMS workflow.
Dealerships with documented override trails reduce audit preparation time by 73% and compliance findings by 58%.
