Because it can be fun and useful, and together we all contribute to something that can be fun and useful for the Fiero community.
We use login to make sure that only you can change your car and your personal data. Login also makes it possible to add comments and other information in FieroHub.
If this happens you have probably logged in with another account than last time. FieroHub supports login with either FieroHub or Facebook account, and they are not linked together.
FieroHub is a car registry, intended to be used by Fiero owners, so it makes sense that users register their Fiero.
We need a way to identify a car over its full lifetime, to avoid ending up with duplicates of cars in the future. VIN number is the only solution to this problem that we have come up with.
The VIN number is available, in plain sight, in the windshield of every Fiero.
No.
Yes. This will likely happen over the lifetime of some cars. Like when they move to another owner without being unregistered by the previous owner. This is when VIN would help us find these duplicates.
Then you should uncheck the checkbox saying "My contact information can be shown to other users".
Yes. If you want to register a Fiero but don't want it to be visible to other users, you should uncheck the checkbox saying "This Fiero can be shown to other users".
Yes. Select "No" for the option "Owned by me".
Data protection is important to us. We use a security-first approach when developing FieroHub and we do not expose any private data through our API:s.
Edit your Fiero and click on Unregister car. After you have unregistered your car you will still have access to all features in FieroHub. Then, of course, you will tell the new owner to register it in FieroHub :)
