Terms of Service

Your Agreement with carsworth.net

Last Updated: May 22, 2026

Welcome to carsworth.net. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our car valuation platform, website, mobile applications, and related services (collectively, the "Services"). By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, accessing our valuation tools, or otherwise using carsworth.net, you confirm that: (a) you are at least 16 years old (or the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction); (b) you have the legal authority to agree to these Terms; and (c) you will use the Services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.

2. Description of Services

carsworth.net provides instant vehicle valuation estimates based on real-market data, including make, model, year, mileage, condition, and location. Our Services are for informational purposes only and do not constitute professional appraisal, financial advice, or a guarantee of sale price. Actual transaction values may vary based on market conditions, vehicle history, and negotiation.

3. User Responsibilities

You agree to: (a) provide accurate and complete vehicle information when using our calculator; (b) maintain the confidentiality of your account credentials; (c) notify us immediately of any unauthorized account access; and (d) not use our Services to engage in fraudulent, misleading, or illegal activities. You are solely responsible for any content you submit through our platform.

⚖️ Fair Use Reminder

Our valuation tools are designed to empower informed decisions — not to replace professional appraisals, legal counsel, or dealership negotiations. Always verify critical information through multiple sources before finalizing any transaction.

4. Intellectual Property

All content, features, and functionality of carsworth.net — including our logo, design, text, graphics, software, and valuation algorithms — are owned by carsworth.net or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works without our express written permission.

5. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, carsworth.net and its affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our Services. Our total liability for any claim related to these Terms or the Services shall not exceed the amount you paid to us, if any, in the 12 months preceding the claim. Valuation estimates are provided "as is" without warranties of accuracy or completeness.

6. Account Termination

You may delete your account at any time via your profile settings or by contacting [email protected]. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, engage in abusive behavior, or pose security risks. Upon termination, your access to the Services ends immediately, though certain data may be retained as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

7. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms periodically to reflect changes in our Services, legal requirements, or user feedback. When we do, we'll post the revised version here with a new "Last Updated" date. For material changes, we'll notify you via email or a prominent notice on our site at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

8. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Services shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation. If unresolved, disputes shall be settled exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of these courts.

9. Contact Information

FAQ

Terms Questions, Answered

Clear answers to common questions about your rights and responsibilities.

Yes. By accessing any part of carsworth.net — including the free valuation calculator — you agree to these Terms. This helps ensure a safe, fair experience for all users. However, you don't need to create an account or provide personal information to get a basic estimate.
Our estimates are for informational purposes only and are not certified appraisals. For legal disputes, insurance claims, or tax assessments, we recommend obtaining a formal appraisal from a licensed professional. Always verify critical valuations through multiple authoritative sources.
Valuation accuracy depends on the details you provide. If you enter incorrect mileage, condition, or features, the estimate may not reflect your vehicle's true market value. We're not liable for decisions made based on inaccurate user-submitted data. When in doubt, double-check your entries or consult a professional.
We may update these Terms, but we'll always post the revised version here with a new "Last Updated" date. For material changes that affect your rights or obligations, we'll notify you via email or a prominent site notice at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use after that date means you accept the updates.
We encourage you to contact us first at [email protected] with details about your concern. Our team will review your case and work toward a fair resolution. If we can't resolve it directly, our Terms outline a good-faith negotiation process before any formal dispute proceedings.
These Terms are governed by California law, but we design them to comply with major global frameworks like GDPR and CCPA. If you're outside the U.S., certain provisions may be interpreted differently under your local laws. If you have concerns about enforceability in your jurisdiction, please consult a local legal professional.
