receiving anonymous data associated with a browser session initialized by the operator via a browser on the second computing device;

determining that the operator accessed a uniform resource locator (URL) during the browser session;

determining a latitude coordinate and a longitude coordinate of the second computing device, during the browser session, wherein the latitude coordinate and the longitude coordinate are determined based on the anonymous data upon determining that the operator opted-out of location tracking, and wherein the latitude coordinate and the longitude coordinate are determined based on geo-location data retrieved from the second computing device upon determining that the operator opted-in to location tracking;

identifying a physical address for the operator based on the determined latitude coordinate and the determined longitude coordinate using a map application programming interface (API);

generating a user profile for the operator using the unique identifier and physical address, the user profile comprising profile information that comprises one or more URLs the operator has accessed, the frequency with which the operator accessed the URL(s), demographics associated with the operator, the address(es) associated with the operator, or the devices associated with the operator;

identifying whether the vehicle has been serviced by a specific service provider within a predetermined time period;

when the vehicle has not been serviced by the specific service provider within the predetermined time period, determining whether the second computing device of the operator has visited a website associated with the specific service provider; and

sending a notification from the first computing device to the second computing device of the operator of the vehicle based on one or more of the determined health score, the updated health score, the future estimated health score, or the second computing device of the operator having visited the website associated with the specific service provider.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the prior service information includes a type of service performed.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determined health score is determined using a number of miles driven since a last performed service.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the notification comprises a service reminder or a service coupon when the determined health score is less than or equal to a predefined health threshold.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the notification comprises a marketing notification when the determined health score is greater than a predefined health threshold.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determined health score indicates a preventive care rating for the vehicle.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the prior service information comprises default service information for the vehicle.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining that the service was performed on the vehicle.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle information comprises one or more of a manufacturing date, a model year, a make of the vehicle, a model of the vehicle, or a vehicle identification number (VIN).
