This is a general operational draft, not legal advice. The final version should be approved by an Iraqi legal adviser after confirming the operator’s legal name, contact details, and privacy policy.
1. Acceptance and scope
These terms govern use of the CAR U website, vehicle pages, reports, forms, and related services. By using the site, creating an account, or submitting a listing, inspection request, or inquiry, you confirm that you have read and accepted them.
2. CAR U services
Published content introduces a vehicle or service and is not a legally binding offer. Final agreement, payment, and ownership transfer occur outside the website under applicable documents and rules.
- Displaying CAR U and customer vehicles using submitted or approved information.
- Receiving inspection and verification requests and publishing approved condition reports.
- Forwarding contact, installment, and booking requests to the relevant team; submission is not final approval or a sale or finance contract.
- The current release does not collect online payment unless expressly stated.
3. Accounts and accurate information
- Provide current and accurate identity and contact details.
- Keep access credentials confidential and report suspected misuse.
- CAR U may request identity, ownership, or authority verification before publication.
4. Vehicle listing rules
CAR U may review, format, reject, suspend, or request documents for a listing. Acceptance does not certify every advertiser claim.
- The advertiser must own the vehicle or be legally authorised.
- Model, mileage, origin, accidents, repairs, paint, liens, restrictions, and material defects must be disclosed accurately.
- Stolen, seized, unlawful vehicles or unauthorised images are prohibited.
- The listing must be updated after sale or any material change.
- CAR U may mask plate numbers and sensitive personal data.
5. Inspection and CAR U badge
Buyers should inspect and test the vehicle, verify legal documents, and seek independent expertise before paying or signing.
- The badge means the vehicle received a documented inspection on the stated date; it does not mean the vehicle is free of accidents, repairs, or defects.
- The detailed report is the reference and must be read in full.
- The result describes observable condition at the inspection time and within its stated limits.
- Advertisers and content staff cannot manually create a badge or alter an approved result.
- A badge may be suspended after expiry or a material change.
6. Prices, installments, and currencies
- Displayed prices come from the seller or administration and may change.
- USD/IQD conversion is indicative; settlement is agreed by the parties.
- Installment examples are estimates, not finance offers or credit approval.
- Finance remains subject to the provider’s approval and conditions.
7. Requests and communication
Submitting an inquiry, inspection, or installment request permits CAR U or the relevant provider to contact you by phone, message, or WhatsApp only to process that request.
8. Prohibited conduct
- Impersonation or false documents and data.
- Manipulating reports, verification numbers, QR codes, or badges.
- Automated scraping or user-data collection without written permission.
- Unauthorised access, disruption, malware, fraud, money laundering, or unlawful activity.
- Copying or reselling protected design, code, or content.
9. Intellectual property
The CAR U identity, design, software, original content, reports, and owned media remain protected. Site use grants only a limited personal and lawful licence.
10. External links and services
Google Maps, social networks, login providers, finance entities, and other third parties operate under their own terms. CAR U is not responsible for services outside its control.
11. Availability and changes
CAR U may maintain, update, change, suspend, or correct any part of the platform, vehicle, report, or listing for operational, security, or legal reasons.
12. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, CAR U is not a party to a direct sale and is not responsible for a party’s obligations, documents, undisclosed defects, or changes after inspection. Decisions must rely on the report, inspection, documents, and final contract.
13. Responsibility for violations
Users are responsible, to the extent determined by law, for reasonable losses and claims resulting from false data, infringement of third-party rights, or misuse of the platform.
14. Suspension and termination
CAR U may restrict an account, remove a listing, or suspend service after a breach, suspected fraud, or a safety or system risk, while retaining records required by law.
15. Governing law and disputes
Iraqi law applies. Parties should first seek an amicable solution within thirty days of written notice; otherwise the competent Iraqi courts in Baghdad have jurisdiction, subject to mandatory law.
16. Updates and contact
Terms may be updated as services or legal requirements change. Continued use after publication accepts the updated version. Use the official contact channels for questions.
