Car Genius reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to update, modify or replace the Terms (including any Policy), in whole or in part, at any time. Car Genius will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any material change in advance of the effective date of any change. Change notices may be communicated by postings, via the App, e-mail or otherwise. In any case, you should periodically check the Policies and these Terms for changes. Continued access or use of the Service following any change to the Terms constitutes your acceptance of those changes.

Car Genius may modify, suspend or terminate the Services (including without limitation, the App), in whole or in part, at any time.

Eligibility.

The Services are intended by Car Genius to be made available to individuals who are 18 years or older. If you are under the age of 18, you should review these Terms with your parent or guardian to make sure that you or your parent or guardian understand the terms contained in these Terms. Car Genius will not collect personally identifiable information from any person who is actually known to us to be under the age of 13. If we become aware that a person under 13 has provided personally identifiable information, Car Genius will take steps to remove such information and terminate that individual’s account, access and use of the Service.

Registration.

The Services may be accessed by downloading the App in the Google Play or iTunes store.

By way of illustration and not limitation, you may be required to provide the following information in order to establish your account and register for and use the Services: First Name, Last Name, Username (your email address) and password and certain permissions.

Vehicle Services.

The Vehicle Services includes the ability for users to view their vehicle’s maintenance schedule, locate a retailer to purchase vehicle maintenance products and to locate service centers to book appointments for related vehicle services (“Vehicle Services”).

Car Genius will provide offers within the App, and solicit offers on your behalf from retailers and service centers that are willing to provide your requested Vehicle Services.

For clarity, all Vehicle Services are provided by the service center and retailer, not Car Genius. Vehicle Services are not deemed to be within the scope of the Services offered and provided by Car Genius, and Car Genius (and its Business Partners as defined further below, other than the retailers and service centers) have no obligation or liability regarding Vehicle Services.

As a result of its limited role as an intermediary between you and the retailers and the service centers, Car Genius has no control over the quality, timeliness, price, guarantees, risks or damages related to Vehicle Services.

Therefore, you agree, in connection with any use of the Services resulting in the purchase of a vehicle maintenance product or the performance of Vehicle Services: (a) to release Car Genius (and its Business Partners, other than the retailers and service centers) and its affiliates, from any and all claims, demands, damages and liabilities, of any type and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such Vehicle Services (including any disputes arising therefrom); and (b) to attempt to settle any dispute directly with the retailer and the service center.

Fees and Payments.

Except as expressly provided otherwise in the Terms, each user is solely responsible for all of its costs and expenses related to the Services.

At this time, you may access and use the App without charge. In the future, Car Genius may decide to charge for the App or other features of the Services (or to change the price charged for such App or features), in which case you will be notified, via email or through the App, of that change. Should you elect to obtain any such fee-bearing App or feature, or continue using the Services at the price communicated in the notification, you hereby agree to pay all applicable fees, in the amounts, at the times and subject to any other conditions established for that App or feature. Such fees may be specified on a recurring basis (e.g., subscription or usage fees) or non-recurring basis (e.g., one-time fees). Unless otherwise stated, all fees and charges are due and payable in advance, are non-refundable, and are exclusive of any applicable, federal, state or local taxes. All such fees and charges (including any taxes and late fees, as applicable) will be charged to the payment method you provided when you elected to access that paid component of the Services. You agree to maintain a valid payment method during the term of your use of such Services. If you elect to not pay for the App or feature for which a payment will apply, as applicable, you will need to discontinue use of the applicable App or feature. Continued use of the App or feature once you have been notified of the fee change will be deemed acceptance of the applicable payment terms. Your right to use the App or feature may be terminated by Car Genius if you fail to comply with any applicable Terms or this Agreement.

Use of the Services may involve transmission of data through your carrier or service provider’s network. You are responsible for all carrier, text/SMS, data, or other related fees or charges you incur from your carrier or service provider in connection with, or related to your use of the Services. Car Genius assumes no liability or responsibility for the payment of any charges you may incur.

You are solely liable for the cost of Vehicle Services you receive. The price for Vehicle Services (including any applicable taxes) will be established by the applicable retailer or service center, as set forth in the offer you accepted (or as increased or decreased as a result of changes in the scope of Vehicle Services to which you and the retailer or service center has agreed).

Privacy Policy.

You represent that you have read and understood our Privacy Policy. You can find the Privacy Policy on the same directory of the App on which you found these Terms. Note that we may disclose information about you to third parties if we have a good faith belief that such a disclosure is reasonably necessary to (i) take action regarding suspected illegal activities; (ii) enforce or apply our Terms and Privacy Policy; (iii) comply with legal process or other governmental inquiry, such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute, judicial proceeding, or other legal process served on us; or (iv) to protect our rights, reputation, and property, or that of our users, affiliates, licensors, Business Partners, or the public. If you use the App outside of the United States, you consent to having your personal data transferred to and processed in the United States.
