Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: December 24, 2025

1. About These Terms

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the CarAdvisor website and iOS application (together, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Who We Are

CarAdvisor (“we”, “us”, “our”) is operated by an individual. For support, contact support@caradvisor.uk.

3. The Service

CarAdvisor helps you view MOT history and related vehicle information by entering a UK vehicle registration number. The Service may also allow you to save lookups (History) and save vehicles (Garage) on your device.

4. Information Sources and Accuracy

The Service displays information obtained from third-party sources, including official UK government data services such as DVSA (MOT history) and DVLA (vehicle information services, where applicable). We do not control those sources and cannot guarantee that all information is accurate, complete, or up to date. You should independently verify critical information (for example, before purchasing a vehicle).

5. No Professional Advice

The Service is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute mechanical, legal, financial, or other professional advice. You are responsible for how you use the information and for any decisions you make.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service unlawfully or in a way that infringes others’ rights.
  • Attempt to bypass or interfere with security, rate limits, authentication, or access controls.
  • Reverse engineer, scrape, harvest, or bulk-collect data from the Service except as permitted by law.
  • Use the Service to facilitate fraud or misrepresentation.

7. Your Device Data (History/Garage)

If you use History or Garage features, data may be stored locally on your device. You are responsible for managing your device and its security settings. You can remove local data by deleting entries in the app or uninstalling the app.

8. Third-Party Services

The Service may rely on third-party services (for example, data providers and app analytics/crash reporting/feedback providers). Those third parties may have their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services that are not operated by us.

9. Intellectual Property

We and our licensors own all rights, title, and interest in the Service, including its software and content, except where otherwise stated. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Service unless we give you written permission or applicable law allows it.

10. Availability and Changes

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, including features and availability of data sources. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties and representations, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

12. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation. Subject to that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses, or for loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service.

13. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we process personal data. Please read Privacy Policy.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will update the “Last Updated” date above. Continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

15. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction, except where mandatory consumer protection laws provide otherwise.
