1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using FindARisk ("the Platform", "we", "us") at findarisk.com, creating an account, or purchasing any product, you ("User", "you") agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms").

2. What FindARisk Is
FindARisk provides digital Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) checklists designed to assist car buyers in conducting their own visual and functional inspection of vehicles before accepting delivery or making a purchase.
Our checklists are:
- Informational guides based on general best practices for vehicle inspection
- Designed for use by non-expert users to conduct self-inspections
- Intended to supplement — not replace — professional mechanical inspections
- Not a guarantee of vehicle condition, safety, or suitability for purchase
3. Disclaimer of Warranties

- Warranties that the platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure
- Warranties that the checklist will identify all defects in any vehicle
- Warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any content
FindARisk does not warrant that:
- Following our checklist will prevent you from purchasing a defective vehicle
- A vehicle that passes all checklist items is free from hidden defects
- Our scoring system accurately reflects the true condition or market value of any vehicle
- The platform will meet your specific requirements or expectations

In all cases, FindARisk's maximum aggregate liability to you shall not exceed the amount you paid for the product that gave rise to the claim, regardless of the cause of action or the theory of liability.
You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for your vehicle purchase decisions. FindARisk provides a tool to assist your own due diligence — the final decision to purchase or reject a vehicle rests entirely with you.
