Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using CarJourney, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App. Your use of CarJourney is entirely voluntary, and there is no obligation to use this service.

2. Service Provider

CarJourney is owned and operated by Blue Shed Digital LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). Blue Shed Digital LLC strives in all reasonable efforts to offer CarJourney as an easy-to-use, valuable tool for vehicle enthusiasts to track their vehicles, maintenance, modifications, and connect with a community.

3. Use of the App

CarJourney is provided as a vehicle tracking and community platform. You may use the App to:

• Track your personal vehicles
• Log maintenance records and modifications
• Connect with other vehicle enthusiasts
• Share vehicle information publicly (if you choose)

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

4. Subscriptions & Payments

CarJourney offers a free tier and a premium subscription called "CarJourney Pro." The free tier includes: 1 vehicle, 12 maintenance records and 12 mod records per calendar year, unlimited community interactions (likes, comments, follows, posting), and 1 active share link. Annual record limits reset January 1 (UTC) and count successful record creations; edits do not count and deletions do not restore the allowance. Expired or deactivated share links do not count toward the active-link limit. Existing records and links are retained. CarJourney Pro includes unlimited maintenance records, mod records, and share links, plus AI features.

CarJourney Pro includes the following features, subject to the plan details shown before purchase and the fair use policy below:

• Unlimited vehicles in your garage
• AI-powered document scanning for maintenance receipts
• AI questions about your vehicles
• Unlimited community interactions (likes, comments, follows)
• Unlimited share links
• Access to the Pro features described at purchase

Fair Use Policy

All "unlimited" features within CarJourney Pro are subject to a reasonable fair use policy. While the vast majority of users will never encounter any limits, we reserve the right to enforce reasonable usage thresholds to prevent abuse, protect the quality of service for all users, and maintain the integrity of our platform. Any feature-specific allowances are disclosed in the App or at purchase. We will explain any restriction imposed for suspected abuse and how to contact us for review; this policy does not remove your mandatory consumer rights.

Automated, scripted, or programmatic access to AI-powered features is strictly prohibited unless explicitly authorized in writing by Blue Shed Digital LLC. Use of the Service must be for personal, non-commercial purposes consistent with the intended functionality of the App.

If you believe you have a legitimate need that exceeds standard usage, or if you would like to learn more about specific fair use thresholds, please contact us at support@carjourney.io. We are happy to work with you to accommodate your needs.

Subscription Plans

• Monthly: Auto-renewable subscription billed monthly
• Yearly: Auto-renewable subscription billed annually
• Lifetime: One-time purchase granting permanent access (does not auto-renew)

Payment & Renewal

Purchases made through the iOS App Store are billed by Apple; purchases made through Google Play are billed by Google. Website purchases are processed through Stripe. The price, currency, billing interval, applicable taxes, and any trial or promotional terms are shown before you confirm a purchase. Monthly and yearly subscriptions renew automatically until canceled through the original purchase provider. The provider displays your renewal date and cancellation requirements. Apple subscriptions should be canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Google Play and website subscriptions must be canceled before their next renewal. Price changes are subject to applicable notice and consent requirements.

Managing & Canceling Subscriptions

Manage or cancel with the provider used to purchase: on iOS, open Settings, your name, then Subscriptions; on Android, open Google Play, your profile, Payments and subscriptions, then Subscriptions. For website purchases, check your CarJourney account settings or contact support@carjourney.io for help canceling. Deleting the App or your CarJourney account does not itself cancel a store subscription. After cancellation, access normally continues through the paid period. Cancellation does not ordinarily generate a partial-period refund, except where required by law or the purchase provider. Refund requests for store purchases follow Apple or Google Play procedures; contact support@carjourney.io for website purchase refunds or assistance. These provisions do not limit statutory withdrawal rights or remedies for faulty or misdescribed digital content or services.

Purchase-provider help: Apple subscription cancellation, Google Play subscription cancellation, and Google Play refunds.

5. User Content

You retain ownership of any content you submit, post, or display through the App ("User Content"). By posting User Content, you grant Blue Shed Digital LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, display, and distribute such content within the App. You are solely responsible for your User Content and represent that you have all necessary rights to post it.

Blue Shed Digital LLC reserves the right to remove, disable, or restrict access to any User Content that violates these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy below, without prior notice. We may also use automated tools, including artificial intelligence, to screen content before or after publication.

6. Acceptable Use Policy

CarJourney is a community for vehicle enthusiasts. To keep the platform safe and welcoming, the following content is strictly prohibited:

• Hate speech, slurs, or content that promotes discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or national origin
• Harassment, bullying, threats, or intimidation of any individual or group
• Sexually explicit or pornographic material, including images and text
• Graphic violence or content that glorifies violence
• Content that promotes or facilitates illegal activity
• Self-harm or suicide promotion or instructions
• Spam, unsolicited advertising, or repetitive content
• Impersonation of other individuals or entities
• Content that is deliberately misleading or fraudulent
• Any content that is not related to vehicles and is posted with intent to abuse the platform

Automated Content Screening

We use artificial intelligence to automatically screen user-generated content (text and images) for violations of this policy. Content that is flagged may be blocked from publication. This screening is designed to protect the community and may occasionally flag content in error.

Reporting

If you encounter content that you believe violates this policy, you can report it using the flag icon available on comments, questions, answers, and profiles. Our team reviews reports and takes appropriate action.

Enforcement

Violations of this policy may result in:

• Removal of the offending content
• A warning to the user
• Temporary suspension of the user's account
• Permanent ban from the platform

The severity of enforcement depends on the nature and frequency of the violation. Repeated violations will result in escalating consequences.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

SUBJECT TO YOUR MANDATORY CONSUMER RIGHTS, CARJOURNEY IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

• The App or servers are free of viruses or harmful components
• The results obtained from using the App will be accurate or reliable
• Any information provided by third-party services (such as vehicle lookup services) is accurate or complete

8. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BLUE SHED DIGITAL LLC, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

• Loss of profits, data, or goodwill

9. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Blue Shed Digital LLC and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your unlawful User Content or intentional or negligent violation of these Terms. This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim results from our own breach, negligence, or misconduct, and does not override mandatory consumer protections.

10. Data Usage & Privacy

Your use of CarJourney is subject to our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and protect your information. We process information to operate the Service, manage accounts and payments, provide requested features, protect users, and improve reliability, as explained in our Privacy Policy. That policy describes service providers, public sharing, analytics, communications, and your privacy choices.

For complete details about our data practices, including what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights, please review our Privacy Policy.

11. Third-Party Services

CarJourney may integrate with or provide access to third-party services, including but not limited to vehicle lookup APIs and AI-powered document analysis. Blue Shed Digital LLC is not responsible for the accuracy, availability, or content of these third-party services. Your use of such services is at your own risk and subject to the terms and policies of those third parties.

12. Termination

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access for a material breach of these Terms, unlawful activity, a security risk, or a legal requirement. Where reasonably possible, we will explain the reason and provide an opportunity to resolve the issue or request review at support@carjourney.io. Immediate action may be necessary to protect users or comply with law. If we discontinue a paid service for reasons unrelated to your breach, we will provide reasonable advance notice and any refund or other remedy required by law. Termination does not remove accrued rights or mandatory consumer remedies. Cancel recurring billing separately through the original purchase provider.

13. Vehicle Marketplace

CarJourney provides a member-driven vehicle listing feature (the "Marketplace") that allows members to list their personal vehicles for sale and to browse listings from other members.

• Platform Only — Not a Dealer. CarJourney is a listing platform only. CarJourney is not a dealer, broker, buyer, seller, or party to any transaction. We do not buy, sell, facilitate, or guarantee any vehicle sale. All transactions occur solely and directly between the listing member (seller) and the interested member (buyer).
• No Warranties on Listings. CarJourney makes no representations or warranties of any kind — express or implied — regarding the accuracy, completeness, condition, title, legality, or value of any vehicle listed in the Marketplace. Vehicle history information displayed in a listing (maintenance records, modifications) is provided by the seller and is not verified by CarJourney.
• Buyer and Seller Responsibility. Buyers are solely responsible for verifying the condition, title, and history of any vehicle before purchasing. Sellers are solely responsible for the accuracy of their listing information. Both parties are responsible for complying with all applicable laws, including those governing the sale of motor vehicles.
• No Involvement in Negotiations or Payment. CarJourney does not participate in price negotiations, payment processing, escrow, or dispute resolution between buyers and sellers. Any agreement, payment, or transfer of title is entirely between the parties.
• Member-to-Member Messaging. In-app messaging (direct messages between members and listing inquiries) is provided solely as a communication convenience. Message content is private between participants. CarJourney does not monitor, moderate, or guarantee the accuracy of messages exchanged between members.
• Prohibited Listings. You may not list vehicles that you do not own, vehicles with fraudulent information, stolen vehicles, or any listing that violates applicable law. CarJourney reserves the right to remove any listing at its sole discretion.
• Indemnification. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless CarJourney and Blue Shed Digital LLC from any claims, losses, or damages arising out of or related to your use of the Marketplace, including any transaction you enter into with another member.

14. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes in law, security needs, or changes to the Service. We will identify the updated date and give reasonable advance notice of material changes through the App or email, unless urgent legal or security reasons require earlier action. Changes apply prospectively and do not remove accrued rights. Where required by law, we will obtain consent or provide a right to cancel and any applicable refund before a material change takes effect. If you do not agree, you may stop using the Service and cancel renewal through your purchase provider.

15. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. If you are a consumer, this choice does not deprive you of mandatory protections under the laws of your country of residence or any mandatory right to bring proceedings in your local courts. Subject to those rights, disputes may be brought in the courts located in Virginia.

16. Consumer Rights

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits rights or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud or death or personal injury caused by negligence. Consumers, including those in the EEA and United Kingdom, retain applicable statutory rights concerning digital content and services, including conformity, remedies, refunds, and withdrawal rights where applicable. A withdrawal period may apply to distance purchases; any early-performance request or loss of withdrawal rights requires the conditions and consent prescribed by applicable law. Acceptance of these Terms alone does not waive those rights. Contact support@carjourney.io about a complaint or remedy; you may also use the applicable purchase provider procedures. If another clause conflicts with mandatory consumer law, that law prevails.
