Last Updated: July 18, 2019

Welcome to PureCars.com. By using this website, you agree to accept this Terms of Service Agreement. This agreement is a legally binding agreement between you and PureCars.com; please read it carefully.

Introduction And General Provisions

The website PureCars.com, including all resources available from the PureCars.com domain name (the “Site”), is owned and operated by PureCars Technologies, LLC. Please be aware you may have arrived at a co-branded version of the Site from an Affiliate’s website. These Terms of Service Agreement and the Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Agreement”) applies to the Site, regardless of any co-branding. “Affiliates” include licensors, suppliers, service providers, distribution partners, advertisers, and/or other third-parties that PureCars does business with. By using the Site, you hereby agree that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age and are bound by this Agreement.

PureCars respects your privacy. Please take a moment to review our Privacy Policy.

The Site is an online research, information, listing, and advertising service. PureCars operates the Site primarily in order to help bring together buyers and sellers of automobiles and automotive related goods and services by providing relevant information that improves the buying process. PureCars does not sell vehicles directly. Neither PureCars nor the Site is a party to any transaction between buyers and sellers. Any and all concerns, discrepancies, or differences regarding a vehicle must be addressed with the seller prior to the sale of a vehicle. PureCars does not (a) guarantee, ensure, or warrant any vehicle or any transaction between a buyer and seller, (b) collect or process payments, fees, or transfer of title on behalf of buyers or sellers, or (c) warehouse, store, transport, deliver, service, repair, warrant, or insure, any vehicles.

Information related to vehicles available on the Site is supplied by the seller or other Affiliates, and discrepancies or errors may appear. PureCars does not purport to verify any of the information for accuracy, omissions or completeness. PureCars is not responsible for the pricing, availability, location, performance, features, options, condition or status (new, used, certified) of listed vehicles or goods and services found on the Site. PureCars does not ensure, warrant, or otherwise, guarantee the information contained or compiled on the Site.

Subject to the laws in your jurisdiction, the price and any other terms of any sale may remain subject to direct negotiation between the buyer and the seller only. The prices listed by sellers or other Affiliates may, among other things, exclude finance charges, license, title, regulatory, emission validation, dealer documentary, compliance fees, federal/state/local taxes, other fees, and other unlisted costs, any and all of which may be added to the listed price to arrive at the final sale price of a particular vehicle.

Submitted Content

This section does not apply to consumer nonpublic personal information. Please take a moment to review our Privacy Policy .

By “submitting” (which includes permitting access to) data, information, advertisements, photos, listings, reviews, ratings, comments, materials, or any other content (collectively, “Content”) to the Site or PureCars, you hereby grant to PureCars and its Affiliates a perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, transferable, right and license, to copy, modify, edit, manipulate, store, display, promote, aggregate, distribute, perform, create derivative works from, and in any way use all such Content in any form, media, software, current technology, and/or technology developed in the future. Content excludes consumer nonpublic personal information (as defined by 15 U.S.C. § 6801 through § 6810). You further grant PureCars and its Affiliates a royalty-free right and license to use your corporate or personal name, likeness, image, logo, trademark, copyright, and information, in connection with the distribution or reproduction of said Content and waive any moral rights you may have in said Content.

PureCars will not sell or lease any Content that you indicate is not to be made publicly available (“Proprietary Content”) to any third party. Furthermore, PureCars will take reasonable measures to ensure the Proprietary Content is not released to any third party in a manner that can identify you as the origin of such Proprietary Content, except when such release is appropriate to comply with law (including disclosure in response to a request from a law enforcement agency), or to protect the rights, property, or safety of visitors to the Site, PureCars, Affiliates, and/or others.

By submitting Content to the Site or PureCars, you hereby represent and warrant that your submission does not contain any computer viruses, worms, or other damaging computer files or code, you have all necessary authority, rights and permissions to submit the Content, and that you own or otherwise control all of the rights (including any copyright, trade secret, trademark, patent, or other intellectual property right) to the Content that you submit. Furthermore, you represent that the Content is accurate; that the use of the Content you submit (by you, PureCars and/or its Affiliates) does not and will not violate any rights, laws or regulations, and will not cause injury to any person or entity. You further agree to release, defend, indemnify and hold harmless PureCars and its Affiliates, and all their respective owners, members, directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, contractors, affiliates, representatives, and licensors (collectively, “Personnel”) from any and all claims, damages, demands, expenses, and costs (including attorney’s fees) resulting from Content you submit.

Supplemental Inventory

On occasion, we may permit certain parties (“Inventory Providers”) to supply Content in the form of supplemental automotive inventory available for access by users of the Site (“Supplemental Inventory”). For clarity, PureCars subscribers (“Clients”) who provide Content in the form of automotive inventory available for direct purchase from Clients (“Primary Inventory”) are not considered Inventory Providers. Primary Inventory and Supplemental Inventory will, at all times, be subject to the requirements and restrictions governing all other Content. PureCars accepts and posts Supplemental Inventory solely as an accommodation to Inventory Provider, and reserves the right to terminate the relationship, and/or remove Supplemental Inventory immediately for any reason or no reason. In consideration of PureCars’ agreement to permit an Inventory Provider to provide Supplemental Inventory to the Site, such Inventory Provider agrees, during the period of time that such Inventory Provider’s Supplemental Inventory is being posted on the Site plus 24 months, not to (directly or indirectly) own, manage, operate or invest in any business that, directly or indirectly, owns or operates a consumer-oriented web-based business that is directly designed and intended to facilitate automobile transactions, or that is otherwise directly competitive with the products, services, and features being offered by PureCars.

Any unauthorized access to, redistribution, reverse engineering, reproduction, display, publication, or other use of the Software or the Site is expressly prohibited and may result in severe civil and/or criminal penalties.
