1. Acceptance of Terms and B2B Exclusivity

By accessing and using Automotive Recall Alert, you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement.

                    B2B Only: This service is strictly intended for business-to-business (B2B) use. By subscribing to or using our service, you confirm and warrant that you are acting in your capacity as a business, corporation, fleet operator, or professional entity, and not as a private consumer.
                

2. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Data Source and Accuracy (Third-Party APIs): The alerts provided by Automotive Recall Alert are sourced automatically from official government and regulatory agency databases via public APIs (including, but not limited to, the German Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA), the Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) and the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)). We act solely as a messenger of this public data. We do not control, verify, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of this third-party data. We are not liable for delayed, missing, or erroneous data published by any of these official agencies.

Service Provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE": THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE NOTIFICATIONS WILL BE DELIVERED ERROR-FREE, WITHOUT INTERRUPTION, OR THAT ALL RECALLS WILL BE CAPTURED. Temporary downtimes due to server or third-party service failures (e.g., hosting, email providers) may occur.

User Responsibility (No Replacement): This tool is designed for informational purposes only and serves as an assistant. It does NOT replace your legal, professional, or corporate obligation to verify recall status directly with the manufacturer or official government databases before selling, renting, or servicing a vehicle.

Limitation of Liability: To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our liability is strictly limited. We shall only be liable for damages caused by intent (Vorsatz) or gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit). IN NO EVENT SHALL AUTOMOTIVE RECALL ALERT, ITS FOUNDERS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, LEGAL FEES, LIABILITY CLAIMS FROM THIRD PARTIES, OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM MISSED OR DELAYED RECALL NOTIFICATIONS. In the event of slight negligence, our total liability to you shall not exceed the amount you have paid us for the service in the past twelve (12) months.

3. Subscriptions and Cancellations

Our service operates on a month-to-month or annual basis, depending on your chosen plan. You may cancel your subscription at any time without penalty. No refunds are provided for partial months.

4. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms of Service and any separate agreements whereby we provide you Services shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these Terms or the use of the Service shall be our registered business domicile in Germany.
