 Uploaded assets handled by the API, including vehicle photos and company branding images, are persisted in the named Docker volume `api_uploads`, mounted inside the API container at `/var/lib/rentaldrivego/storage`. Rebuilding or redeploying the API no longer clears those files as long as that volume is kept.
 
 The production helper scripts and the GitLab deploy job now explicitly create the Docker volume `${DOCKER_PROD_PROJECT_NAME:-rentaldrivego-prod}_api_uploads` before starting or redeploying the API stack, so a fresh server bootstrap does not accidentally start the API without its upload storage volume.
