Acceptance of the Terms
These Terms & Conditions (the “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“you”, “your” or the “User”) and VeeSCAN (“VeeSCAN”, “we”, “us” or “our”) governing your access to and use of the VeeSCAN.com website, its sub-domains, applications, application programming interfaces (APIs) and all related services (together, the “Service”).
By accessing, browsing, registering for, or otherwise using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.
If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company, organisation or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity, in which case “you” and “your” refer to that entity.
Definitions
“Content” means all data, reports, text, graphics, images, valuations, charts and other materials made available through the Service. “Vehicle Report” means a compiled set of information relating to a specific vehicle, typically identified by a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). “Account” means a registered user profile required to access certain features. “Third-Party Sources” means the public registries, data providers, partners and other external sources from which vehicle and market information is obtained.
Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract in order to use the Service. By using the Service you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements and that all information you provide is accurate, current and complete.
The Service is intended for users located in the European Union and other jurisdictions where it is lawful to provide such services. You are responsible for compliance with all local laws applicable to your use of the Service.
Accounts & Registration
Some features of the Service require you to create an Account. You agree to provide accurate and complete registration information and to keep that information up to date. You are solely responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your Account.
You must notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your Account or any other breach of security. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your credentials. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate Accounts that contain false information or that are used in breach of these Terms.
Description of the Service
VeeSCAN aggregates and analyses vehicle data — including, where available, mileage history, registration details, theft and damage indicators, market valuations, price comparisons and market-share statistics — and presents it in the form of Vehicle Reports and analytical tools.
The Service is provided for general informational purposes only. We continuously develop the Service and may add, modify, suspend or remove features, data fields or entire functions at any time without prior notice and without liability to you.
Vehicle Data, Sources & Accuracy
Vehicle information is compiled from Third-Party Sources, public records and partner data feeds. While we take reasonable steps to aggregate reliable information, we do not create the underlying records and cannot independently verify them.
Accordingly, we make no representation or warranty that any Content is accurate, complete, current, or free from error. Records may be missing, delayed, duplicated, mis-attributed or out of date, and the absence of a record (for example, of an accident or odometer discrepancy) does not mean that no such event occurred. Valuations, price ranges and forecasts are statistical estimates only and are not offers, appraisals or guarantees of value.
You acknowledge that you use the Content at your own risk and that you are responsible for independently verifying any information before relying on it.
No Professional Advice
The Content does not constitute legal, financial, investment, mechanical, insurance or other professional advice, and must not be used as a substitute for professional inspection or judgment. Any financing figures, monthly-payment estimates or valuations shown by the Service are illustrative only and do not constitute an offer of credit or a binding quotation. You should obtain independent professional advice before making any decision to buy, sell, finance or insure a vehicle.
Acceptable Use
You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. In particular, you agree that you will not:
- use the Service in violation of any applicable law, regulation or third-party right;
- access, scrape, crawl, harvest, or systematically extract data from the Service by automated means without our prior written consent;
- resell, redistribute, sub-license, or commercially exploit the Content except as expressly permitted in writing;
- circumvent, disable, or interfere with security-related features or usage limits of the Service;
- introduce viruses, malware, or any other harmful or disruptive code;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Service, other accounts, or our systems or networks;
- use the Service to stalk, harass, defame, or infringe the privacy or rights of any person; or
- misrepresent your identity or affiliation, or use the Service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair it.
We may investigate and take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates this section, including suspending or terminating their Account and reporting them to law-enforcement authorities.
Intellectual Property
The Service and all materials comprised within it — including text, software, databases, designs, layouts, graphics, logos, trademarks, the “VeeSCAN” name and brand assets, and the compilation and arrangement of Content — are owned by VeeSCAN or its licensors and are protected by copyright, database, trademark and other intellectual-property laws.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Service and to view and print Content for your own personal or internal business use. No other rights are granted. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, or otherwise exploit the Service or Content except as expressly permitted by these Terms or by applicable mandatory law.
User Content & Feedback
If you submit any content, suggestions, or feedback to us, you grant VeeSCAN a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, modify and incorporate such material into the Service without restriction or compensation to you. You represent that you have all necessary rights to grant this licence and that your submissions do not infringe the rights of any third party.
Third-Party Services & Links
The Service may rely on, link to, or integrate with third-party services, data providers, payment processors and websites. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability, policies or practices of any third party. Your dealings with third parties are solely between you and the relevant third party, and may be subject to additional terms.
Fees, Payments & Subscriptions
Certain features of the Service may be offered for a fee or on a subscription basis. Where fees apply, the applicable prices, billing cycle and payment terms will be disclosed to you before you complete a purchase. All fees are stated inclusive or exclusive of applicable taxes as indicated at checkout, and are payable through the designated payment processor.
Unless otherwise stated or required by mandatory law, fees are non-refundable once the relevant Content or Report has been delivered. Where you have a statutory right of withdrawal as a consumer, you acknowledge that, by requesting immediate access to digital content, you may lose that right of withdrawal once performance has begun, to the extent permitted by law.
Privacy & Data Protection
We process personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and with applicable data-protection law, including Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulation, “GDPR”). Our Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, the legal bases for processing, how we use and share it, the retention periods, and the rights available to you — including the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection.
By using the Service you acknowledge that you have read our Privacy Policy. You must not use the Service to process personal data of third parties in violation of applicable law.
Disclaimer of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service and all Content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, title and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, timely, or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the Service or the servers that make it available are free of viruses or other harmful components. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including statutory rights available to consumers.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, VeeSCAN, its officers, employees, partners and licensors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or other intangible losses, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Service or any Content, whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
To the extent our liability cannot be wholly excluded, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid to us for the Service in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred euros (€100).
Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless VeeSCAN and its officers, employees, partners and licensors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your access to or use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any third-party right.
Suspension & Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, in whole or in part, at any time and without prior notice if we reasonably believe that you have breached these Terms, that your use poses a risk to the Service or other users, or as required by law. You may stop using the Service and close your Account at any time.
Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including those relating to intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification and governing law — shall survive.
Changes to the Service and to these Terms
We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “effective date” shown above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after the revised Terms take effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service.
Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter (including non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Slovak Republic, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, and without prejudice to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have under the law of your country of residence within the European Union.
Subject to any mandatory rules that grant consumers the right to bring proceedings in their place of domicile, the courts competent for the registered seat of VeeSCAN shall have jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms.
Dispute Resolution
In the event of a dispute, we encourage you to contact us first at info@veescan.com so that we may attempt to resolve the matter amicably. If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you may also access the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform. Nothing in this section limits your statutory rights to bring proceedings before a competent court.
General Provisions
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms applicable to specific features, constitute the entire agreement between you and VeeSCAN regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements. If any provision is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and the invalid provision will be replaced by a valid one that most closely reflects the original intent.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance resulting from causes beyond our reasonable control (force majeure).
