By accessing and using MOT Ninja ("the Service"), operated as a sole proprietorship ("we", "us", "our"), you ("the User") accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use the Service.

2. SERVICE DESCRIPTION

MOT Ninja provides vehicle history information aggregated from publicly available sources and licensed third-party data providers, including:

• Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) data
• Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) MOT test records
• Vehicle Data Global Limited (VDG) - stolen vehicle checks, write-off history, outstanding finance, mileage verification
• Police National Computer (PNC) via authorized third parties
• Motor Insurance Anti-Fraud and Theft Register (MIAFTR)

The Service generates a risk assessment score ("Decision Ribbon") based on algorithmic analysis of available data.

Premium Reports: For £9.49, premium reports include enhanced checks from commercial data providers. These checks are subject to third-party data availability and accuracy. Cost reflects data licensing fees.

3. NO RECOMMENDATION OR ADVICE ⚠️

The Service provides a general risk assessment based solely on historical data available at the time of query. It does not and cannot:

• Predict future vehicle performance or reliability
• Identify undisclosed accidents, repairs or modifications
• Verify the accuracy of seller representations
• Assess current mechanical condition

YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE for making your own informed decision regarding any vehicle purchase, including:

• Conducting a thorough physical inspection
• Obtaining an independent mechanical assessment
• Reviewing all documentation and provenance
• Test driving the vehicle
• Verifying seller identity and legal ownership
• Ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and regulations

Maximum Liability:

Our maximum aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount paid by you for the specific report giving rise to the claim (maximum £9.49 for premium reports, £0 for free reports).

Nothing in these Terms excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any liability which cannot be excluded under applicable law.

We provide data "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranty of any kind. We do not warrant that data is accurate, complete, current, or reliable.

The Service relies on third-party data sources (DVLA, DVSA, TfL) over which we have no control. We assume no responsibility for errors, omissions or delays in third-party data.
