You automatically agree to all the Terms & Conditions when using our Services.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, REMEDIES, AND OBLIGATIONS. THEY INCLUDE AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE (UNLESS YOU OPT OUT).

Introduction

CarAgeRental LLC. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “C.A.R.”, “we”, “CarAgeRental”, or “us”), provide an online car renting platform that connects customers looking to rent a car with us. C.A.R. is accessible online at caragerental.com. The C.A.R. websites, blogs, mobile applications, and associated services are collectively referred to as “the Services”. By accessing or using the Services, you agree to comply with, and be legally bound by, the provisions of these Terms of Service (these “Terms”), whether or not you become a registered user of the Services. These Terms govern your access to and use of the Services and constitute a binding legal agreement between you and C.A.R..

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Rental Agreement, applicable insurance terms and certificates, and roadside assistance terms (together, the “Policies”) constitute the “Agreement” between you and CarAgeRental (each a “Party” and together, “the Parties”).

Modification. CarAgeRental reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to modify the Services or to modify the Agreement, including these Terms, at any time. If we modify these Terms, we will post the modification on the Services. If you continue to access or use the Services after we have posted a modification or have provided you with notice of a modification, you are indicating that you agree to be bound by the modified terms. If the modified terms are not acceptable to you, your sole recourse is to stop using and accessing the Services. If you choose to stop working with us, the previous effective version of these Terms will apply to you, unless you use the Services during the intervening 30 day period, in which case the new version of these Terms will apply to you.

Eligibility, registration, verification

Eligibility

The Services are intended solely for persons who are 18 or older. Any use of the Services by anyone that does not meet these age requirements is expressly prohibited.

Registration

When you book a vehicle as a traveler or guest (“guest”), you provide us with certain information about yourself. You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during the booking process. Based on information you provide, CarAgeRental may impose additional requirements for you to book a trip (e.g., providing a deposit, adding a second form of payment, buying a certain level of protection plan, or other requirements).

Verification

Where permitted, CarAgeRental has the right, but not the obligation, to undertake screenings, checks, and engage in processes designed to (1) help verify the identities or check the backgrounds of users, including driving history and driver’s license validity. CarAgeRental does not endorse any vehicle, user, or a user’s background, or commit to undertake any specific screening process. CarAgeRental may in its sole discretion use third-party services to verify the information you provide to us and to obtain additional related information and corrections where applicable, and you hereby authorize CarAgeRental to request, receive, use, and store such information. CarAgeRental may permit or refuse your request to book in its sole and absolute discretion.

Consumer Report Authorization. When you attempt to book, or at any time after where CarAgeRental reasonably believes there may be an increased level of risk associated with you as a customer, you hereby provide CarAgeRental with written instructions and authorize CarAgeRental, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, applicable consumer reporting laws, or any similar laws to obtain your personal and/or business auto insurance score, credit report, and/or conduct a background check, including a criminal background check where permissible under applicable law.

Fees, taxes

Fees

The fees we charge for using the Services and other cost structures will be itemized at checkout for guests. You can verify the amount for your trip at checkout before you submit your trip request. When you provide CarAgeRental a payment method, you authorize CarAgeRental, or third-party service providers acting on behalf of CarAgeRental, to store your payment credential for future use in the event you owe CarAgeRental any money. You authorize CarAgeRental to use stored payment credentials for balances, including for Trip costs, and guest fees (e.g., late fees, security deposits, processing fees and claims costs, and related administrative fees). In some cases, our payment processors have arrangements with card networks to automatically update stored payment credentials whenever you receive a new card (e.g., replacing an expired card or one that was reported lost or stolen) and we will rely on such updates to stored payment credentials for balances. Any use of referral travel credit is governed by the terms and conditions outlined in here.

Collection of fees

CarAgeRental and its service providers will employ all legal methods available to collect amounts due, including the engagement of collection agencies or legal counsel. CarAgeRental, or the collection agencies we retain, may also report information about your CarAgeRental reservation to credit bureaus. As a result, late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on your CarAgeRental Account may be reflected in your credit report. In addition to the amount due, delinquent accounts or chargebacks will be charged with fees and/or charges that are incidental to the collection of delinquent accounts or chargebacks including, but not limited to, collection fees, convenience fees, and/or other third party charges. If you wish to dispute the information CarAgeRental reported to a credit bureau (i.e., Experian, Equifax, or TransUnion), please contact us through our email info@caragerental.com. If you wish to dispute the information a collection agency reported to a credit bureau regarding your information, you must contact the collection agency directly.

Taxes

In certain jurisdictions, CarAgeRental may enable the collection and remittance of certain taxes from or on behalf of guests, based on existing and future tax regulations, including car renting regulations. The amount of taxes, if any, collected and remitted by CarAgeRental will be visible to, and separately stated, to guests on their respective trip related documents and invoices.

Other legal matters

Violations. CarAgeRental has the right, but not the obligation, to investigate, pursue, and seek to prosecute, litigate, or refer to law enforcement, violations of the Agreement to the fullest extent permissible by the law.

CarAgeRental reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, in accordance with applicable law, to remove or disable access to any content that CarAgeRental, at its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms, or otherwise harmful to the Services or our community. If we believe you are abusing CarAgeRental, our users, or any other person in any way or violating the letter or spirit of any of these Terms, we may, in our sole discretion and without limiting other remedies, limit, suspend, or terminate your CarAgeRental Trip and access to the Services, remove hosted content, deny a damage claim, reduce or eliminate any discounts, and take technical and/or legal steps to prevent you from using the Services. Additionally, we reserve the right to refuse or terminate access to the Services to anyone for any reason at our discretion to the full extent permitted under applicable law.
Policy enforcement. When an issue arises, we may consider the user’s performance history and the specific circumstances in applying our Policies. We may choose to be more lenient with policy enforcement in an effort to do the right thing, subject to our sole and absolute discretion.

Communications with you. In order to contact you more efficiently, you agree that we may at times contact you using autodialed or prerecorded message calls or text messages at your phone number(s). We may place such calls or texts primarily to confirm your signup, provide notices regarding your CarAgeRental Trip investigate or prevent fraud, collect a debt owed to us, or communicate urgent messages.

Non-disparagement. The Parties agree that they will not take any action that will harm the reputation of the other Party, or which would reasonably be expected to lead to unwanted or unfavorable publicity to either of the other Party.
Insurance and protection plans. CarAgeRental is not an insurance company and does not insure guests. Guest protection plans made available through the Services are in no way related. To be eligible for the benefits of a protection plan, guests must comply with these Terms. Protection plans are available through the Services only in the United States. Protection plan details and other specifics may be provided at request. Please refer to the specific terms for guests section below for additional information based on the nature of your use of the Services.

Specific terms for guests

The following sections also apply if you book a vehicle using the Services:

Guest commitments

As a guest, you commit that you will be a legally licensed driver and provide proof to the host or via the Services of a current, valid driver’s license. You will treat the vehicle and any applicable Extras well and will take all reasonable measures to return the vehicle and any applicable Extras on time and in essentially the same condition as received. You will not allow anyone other than a person listed in the trip details as an Approved Driver to drive the vehicle you booked.

Guest financial responsibility for physical damage to the vehicle

The guest that booked the trip (“primary guest”) is financially responsible for all physical damage to or theft of a booked vehicle that occurs during a trip, plus any additional costs and fees resulting from damage of any kind to the vehicle, regardless of who is found to be at fault. This responsibility applies whether the primary guest has their own auto insurance or not.

Primary guests may be insured against damage to the booked vehicle under their own automobile policies. When you book a vehicle on CarAgeRental, you agree that if any damage occurs to the booked vehicle during the booked trip, you will work with CarAgeRental to make a claim for coverage under any policy of insurance that applies to the loss.

Auto liability insurance

The protection plan offered on the Services include coverage under an automobile liability insurance policy. In the US, the policy is issued to CarAgeRental by American Business Insurance Services, Inc. and does not provide a defense or indemnification for any claim asserted by CarAgeRental. If the guest has their own personal auto policy, it will be primary over the CarAgeRental protection depending on various factors such as applicable laws, where the guest books the vehicle, and/or where the accident or damages occur. Terms and exclusions apply.

Use of the vehicle

When you book a vehicle on the Services, you must use the vehicle only for your personal use and not for any commercial purposes (e.g. driving other passengers for a fee such as through Uber or Lyft or delivering food or other packages) unless you have express written permission from the CarAgeRental Legal Department in advance or as otherwise described here. You may not access a vehicle until the trip start time and you must return the vehicle on time and to the correct location. You must present the host with a current, valid driver’s license. You must exercise reasonable care in your use of the vehicle. You are required at all times to operate the vehicle safely, and in compliance with all applicable laws, including without limitation, speed limits and prohibitions on impaired or distracted driving. In the event CarAgeRental has any concern about your use of a vehicle, CarAgeRental may terminate your trip at its discretion at any time and require the return of the vehicle, including recovering the vehicle on behalf of the host. You are required to wear seat belts during the operation of the vehicle and to require that all of your passengers wear seat belts. You are also required to meet any laws or regulations concerning child safety seats and other protections for children. You must not leave the car unlocked or with the keys unsecure (such as in the ignition). You must not engage in any prohibited uses with any vehicle you book through the Services. The prohibited uses list is not meant to be exhaustive. If you have any concerns about your planned use, please contact info@caragerental.com. If you misuse a vehicle, you will be fully financially responsible for any related claims, loss, or damage, and your protection plan may be voided. Guests also acknowledge that using a vehicle in a prohibited manner or otherwise breaching the Agreement may lower available liability coverage to legal minimum limits, or nullify coverage, and may furthermore nullify any comprehensive or collision protection and/or protection plan where allowed by applicable law.

Condition of the vehicle and optional Extras

You understand that third parties own the vehicles and Extras offered through the Services. Each host is responsible for complying with all legal requirements (including ensuring the vehicle is registered and insured) and maintaining their vehicle(s) in safe and roadworthy condition. Please complete a visual inspection before you begin your use of the vehicle. If you find damage in your initial inspection, you should send photos of such pre-existing damage to trips@caragerental.com at the start of your reservation to ensure you are not held responsible for pre-existing damage. If you find damage on your initial inspection and fail to report it, CarAgeRental, third-party administrators, or insurance partners, may assume that the damage occurred during your reservation period. If, after your initial inspection, you believe that the vehicle is not safe to drive, please do not use the vehicle; instead, please contact the CarAgeRental team immediately at +1-507-722-1010.

Incident reporting

Where you elected for a protection plan when booking your trip via the Services, you must immediately report any damage to the vehicle you are using to CarAgeRental at trips@caragerental.com or at +1-507-722-1010. If there has been a collision, you must also make a report to the police. You will need to use all reasonable efforts to secure evidence from any available witnesses and to provide CarAgeRental or third-party claims administrators with a written description of the incident and any other information requested, including identity and insurance information of any parties involved in the incident. You are also required to cooperate in any loss investigation conducted by CarAgeRental, third party claims administrators, or insurers. After an incident, you may not continue to use the vehicle unless you have the explicit permission of CarAgeRental staff. Failure to timely report an incident or cooperate in an investigation may reduce or invalidate any protection plan received via the Services.

Vehicle theft

The following conduct may result in the reporting of the vehicle you have booked as stolen to law enforcement, possibly subjecting you and any other driver to arrest, and civil and/or criminal penalties, and the voiding of your protection plan:

If you fail to return the vehicle you booked at the time and place agreed upon with the host and/or designated in your reservation
If you do not return the vehicle by the end of the reservation period and you have not properly obtained an extension of the reservation through the Services
If the vehicle is returned to any place other than the return location on the reservation or agreed upon with the host. Any damage to, or loss or theft of, a vehicle occurring prior to the host inspecting the vehicle upon return at the end of the reservation is the guest’s responsibility
If you misrepresent facts to the host pertaining to booking, use, or operation of vehicle
If the vehicle’s interior components are stolen or damaged or the vehicle itself is stolen or damaged when the vehicle is left unlocked or running or unattended with the keys not secured during reservation period
If you fail or refuse to communicate in good faith with the host, police, CarAgeRental, or other authorities with a full report of any accident or vandalism involving the vehicle or otherwise fail to cooperate in the investigation of any accident or vandalism
If the vehicle is operated by anyone who has given a fictitious name, false address, or a false or invalid driver’s license, whose driver’s license becomes invalid during the reservation period, who has obtained the keys without permission of the host, or who misrepresents or withholds facts to/from the host or CarAgeRental material to the booking, use, or operation of vehicle

The primary guest who books the reservation is responsible for any private investigation costs CarAgeRental deems necessary to recover a vehicle that is not returned. In addition, a $500 case administration fee will be imposed on the primary guest if CarAgeRental and/or the host has to report a vehicle as stolen to law enforcement due to it not being returned.

Repossession. CarAgeRental, a hired agent of CarAgeRental, or the host may repossess any vehicle booked through the Services without demand, at the guest’s expense, if the vehicle is not returned by the end of the reservation, is found illegally parked, apparently abandoned, or used in violation of applicable law or these Terms.

Missing Vehicles. If a vehicle you have booked through the Services goes missing and/or is stolen during the reservation period (or extension period), you must immediately return the original ignition key to the host, file a police report immediately after discovering the vehicle is missing or stolen, but in no event more than 24 hours after discovering it has gone missing, and cooperate fully with the host, law enforcement, CarAgeRental, and other authorities in all matters related to the investigation.

Dispute resolution

Dispute resolution for guests residing in the United States

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION AND THEREFORE AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS AND GOVERNS HOW CLAIMS YOU AND CarAgeRental HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER ARE RESOLVED.

Subject to applicable law, the Parties agree that any disputes or claims between us relating in any way to, or arising out of, this or previous versions of these Terms, your use of or access to the Services, or any breach, enforcement, or termination of the Agreement will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Dispute resolution for guests residing in the United States section.

Pre-arbitration dispute resolution. Should a dispute or claim arise between us, you and CarAgeRental agree to notify the other Party of the nature of the dispute or claim prior to initiating arbitration, and the Parties will attempt to negotiate an informal resolution to it first. We will contact you at the email address you have provided to us; you can contact us by email at info@caragerental.com. Please provide your name, phone number, email, mailing address, and briefly describe both the nature of your dispute and the relief you would like from CarAgeRental. If the Parties are unable to resolve the claims described in the notice within 30 days after the notice is sent, then the Party intending to pursue arbitration agrees to notify the other Party via email prior to initiating the arbitration. In order to initiate arbitration, a claim must be filed with either FairClaims or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) as set forth below, pursuant to the FairClaims Rules or AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules, as appropriate. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the FairClaims website or AAA's website. (AAA provides a Demand for Arbitration form.) Any settlement offer made by you or CarAgeRental shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.

Applicable law. The below Agreement to Arbitrate evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and is therefore governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and the applicable procedural rules of FairClaims or AAA, as applicable (see "Arbitration procedures" below). To the extent state law is applicable to the Agreement to Arbitrate, the Parties agree that the substantive law of the state of Arizona will apply, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Agreement to Arbitrate. The Parties each agree that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies that have arisen or may arise at any time between you and CarAgeRental (including its respective subsidiaries, employees, officers, directors, agents, third-party insurance brokers or products, and third-party claims administrators) will be resolved by binding arbitration according to the procedure set forth below. For the purpose of this Agreement to Arbitrate, “disputes," "claims,” and "controversies" shall have the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced and includes, any and all disputes and/or claims that arise out of or in any way relate to your relationship with CarAgeRental, including but not limited to: (1) your use of the Services, (2) the Agreement, these Terms and/or this Agreement to Arbitrate, including the interpretation, validity, enforceability, or scope of this Agreement to Arbitrate, or (3) your use of, or access to the Services, and anything sold, offered, or purchased through the Services (such as booking, listing, or sharing a vehicle). Through this Agreement to Arbitrate, and subject to the below exceptions, the Parties intend to arbitrate all disputes or claims regardless of whether they are based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence), or any other legal or equitable theory and regardless of whether they arose or accrued before the Parties entered into this Agreement to Arbitrate. For avoidance of doubt, the Parties expressly agree that this Agreement to Arbitrate encompasses all disputes or claims pertaining to the validity, enforceability, or scope of this Agreement to Arbitrate and any such disputes or claims will be referred to binding arbitration and will be resolved by the arbitrator and not a court.

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate The only exceptions to this Agreement to Arbitrate are as follows:

Disputes or claims that can be brought in small claims court
Injunctive or equitable relief to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a Party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights. However, the Parties agree that any court proceedings shall be stayed pending the final resolution in arbitration of any arbitrable claims or issues
Any cause of action or claim for relief which cannot be arbitrated as a matter of applicable statute or public policy. However, the Parties agree that any such court proceedings shall be stayed pending the final resolution in arbitration of any arbitrable claims or issues
In the event California law is found to apply to this Agreement to Arbitrate, any remedy of public injunctive relief (i.e., injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the general public). However, the Parties agree that any such court proceedings shall be stayed pending the final resolution in arbitration of arbitrable claims, causes of action, or issues

Arbitration procedures. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. An arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual.

The arbitration will be conducted by FairClaims in accordance with its Arbitration Rules and Procedures effective at the time a claim is made. Where the relief sought is $25,000 or less (not including attorneys' fees and expenses), those Arbitration Rules and Procedures may limit the proceeding to a written submission and, if requested or at the arbitrator’s discretion, there may be a live hearing by teleconference or videoconference. Where the relief sought is $25,001 or more (not including attorneys’ fees and expenses), those Arbitration Rules and Procedures may provide for limited discovery and streamlined proceedings. In the event FairClaims declines to or is unable to adjudicate the claim, the arbitration will be conducted by the AAA under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate.
In all cases in which a live hearing is requested or required, you and/or CarAgeRental may attend by video or phone. To the extent a location must be established for the arbitration, it shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location.

The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same CarAgeRental user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Where permitted, the Parties agree that all communications, evidence, and rulings in the arbitration will remain confidential, except as reasonably necessary to enforce or implement such rulings or this Agreement to Arbitrate.
Costs of arbitration. If you initiate arbitration proceedings, you will be responsible for certain costs. Where the relief sought is $25,000 or less (not including attorneys’ fees and expenses), you will be responsible for the initial filing fee, capped at $375, and CarAgeRental will cover any additional fees or costs. Where the relief sought is $25,001 or more (not including attorneys’ fees and expenses), you and CarAgeRental will each pay your own arbitration fees consistent with the rules set by FairClaims (or AAA, as applicable) at the time the claim was made, unless otherwise stated in these Terms.
Severability. With the exception of the provisions in the below section “Prohibition of class and representative actions and non-individualized relief,” if an arbitrator or court decides that any part of the Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of the Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If an arbitrator or court decides that any of the provisions in the section “Prohibition of class and representative actions and non-individualized relief” is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of the Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void. The remainder of the Agreement, these Terms, and dispute resolution section will continue to apply.

Right to opt-out of arbitration; procedure. IF YOU ARE A NEW CARAGERENTAL USER, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO OPT-OUT OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE BY EMAILING US AN OPT-OUT NOTICE TO INFO@CARAGERENTAL.COM ("OPT-OUT NOTICE"). THE OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU ACCEPT THESE TERMS FOR THE FIRST TIME OR THE COMMENCEMENT OF YOUR FIRST TRIP ON CARAGERENTAL AS A GUEST, WHICHEVER DATE IS EARLIEST. In order to opt-out, you must email your full name, address (including street address, city, state, and zip/postal code), and email address(es) associated with your CarAgeRental Reservations to info@caragerental.com. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other provisions of the Agreement will continue to apply to you, including the below forum selection clause specifying Phoenix, Arizona.

Future amendments to the Agreement to Arbitrate. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, the Parties agree that if CarAgeRental makes any amendment to the Agreement to Arbitrate in the future, that amendment shall not apply to any claim that you filed against CarAgeRental prior to the effective date of the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other disputes or claims governed by the Agreement to Arbitrate that have arisen or may arise between the Parties. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you may close your account within 30 days of our posting or notification and you will not be bound by the amended terms; provided that the Parties will arbitrate any dispute in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement to Arbitrate as of the date you last accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms). Once you have submitted a valid Opt-Out Notice to CarAgeRental, you do NOT need to submit another one when these Terms are subsequently updated.

THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND WAIVER PROVISIONS ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN CARAGERENTAL AND YOU. THEY SHALL APPLY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND ANY ASPECTS OF THEM THAT ARE DEEMED VOID OR UNENFORCEABLE SHALL BE SEVERED WHILE LEAVING THE REMAINDER IN EFFECT.

Indemnification

You agree to release, defend, indemnify, and hold CarAgeRental and its subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, and agents, harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising out of or in any way connected with: (1) your access to or use of the Services, (2) your violation of these Terms, (3) your user content, (4) your interaction with any other user of the Services, or (5) your booking of a vehicle or creation of a listing for a vehicle.

CarAgeRental LLC. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “CarAgeRental”, “we”, or “us”) care about privacy and want you to be familiar with how we collect, use, process, and disclose your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes our privacy practices in connection with our websites and applications that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”) and our offline interactions with you in settings where we post this Privacy Policy.

Personal information we collect

We collect three categories of personal information - personal information you give us; personal information automatically collected from your use of the Services; and personal information from third-party sources.

Personal information you give us

Reservation data. When you book a reservation with us, we require certain personal information to open your profile as a Guest, such as your name, email address, and phone.

Profile data. We may also ask you to provide additional profile information to use certain features of the Services which may include street addresses, phone numbers, driver’s license number, date of issuance and issuing country and/or state, profile photos, employer, city, school, biography, and date of birth.

Payment data. We collect your digital payment details, bank account or payment card numbers, and transaction information in connection with a potential or actual transaction, which may be processed and stored by one or more third party payment service providers or digital payments companies.

Identity verification data. In some instances, we may collect identity verification information such as a photograph or scanned copy of a driver’s license, passport, national ID card, or payment card, last four digits of your Social Security number, social insurance number, social media account information, driver’s/motor vehicle record, insurance information, or other forms of identification information. Where we request that you withhold certain information (such as obscuring or redacting aspects of identification information), please do so.

Communications. When you communicate with CarAgeRental, including via phone, email, or chat, or use the Services to communicate with other users, we collect information about your communication and any information you choose to provide.

Personal information we automatically collect.

When you opt in to use our location sharing feature, we may collect the precise location information of your mobile device. Keep in mind that most mobile devices allow you to control or disable the use of location services by any application on your mobile device in the device’s settings menu.

Device data. We collect information about your computer or mobile device, such as its operating system type and version number, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, IP address, unique device identifiers, or general location information such as city, state, or geographic area.

Trip data. We collect transactional information related to the trips you take through the Services, including the date and time of your trip, amounts charged, and other related trip details.

In-vehicle device data. If a vehicle has a CarAgeRental device installed, we may remotely collect certain information about the vehicle. Depending on the make, model, and year of the vehicle, this information may include, GPS location, car battery voltage, fuel level, odometer reading, malfunction indicator lamp (e.g., a check engine light), door state (e.g., locked/unlocked), engine state (e.g., stopped/running), and VIN.

Cookies and similar technology. When you access the Services, we (including companies we work with) may place small data files on your computer or other device.

At this time, we do not respond to browser ‘Do-Not-Track’ signals.

Personal information we collect from third-party sources.

Third-party in-vehicle devices. If your vehicle, or a vehicle you book through the Services, includes an in-vehicle device or system operated by a third-party service (including vehicle manufacturers) or installed by the host, that host or service may record information about your use of the car. These devices or systems may monitor the car's condition, performance and operation, track fuel consumption, distance traveled, location, and other information. The host and/or third-party service will be solely responsible for its use of such information but may disclose such information to CarAgeRental, which we will use in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Background check services. To the extent permitted by applicable laws, CarAgeRental may collect background information about you from public records, background check providers, or other screening services, including credit reports and information about criminal convictions or from sex offender registries. We may use your information, including your full name and date of birth, to obtain such reports.

We may also use your personal information as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy or as disclosed to you at the time of collection.

How we disclose your personal information

With your consent

We may share your information at your direction or with your consent.

Sharing between hosts and guests

If you agree to a booking through the Services, we may provide your information to the other party in that transaction as reasonably necessary to facilitate the transaction. For example, CarAgeRental may provide your mobile phone number to facilitate communication, your driver's license information to confirm license validity, or your photograph to facilitate identification. We will also share the proposed delivery location with the other party. You have the right, but not the obligation, to take pictures reporting the condition of the vehicle prior to the start of the trip and send it to trips@caragerental.com with the Subject Line stating “Pre-Trip Photos - Reservation#(number of your reservation)”.

Service providers

We may share information with vendors and service providers who support the operation of the Services and business and who need access to such information to carry out their work for us (including, for example, web hosting, analytics, payment processing, email delivery, marketing, insurance, claims administration, and customer support services). In some cases, the service provider may directly collect the information from you on our behalf. These service providers may use your personal information only as directed or authorized by us.

Third-party platforms and social media networks

If you have enabled features or functionality that connect the Services to a third-party platform or social media network (such as by logging in to the Services using your account with the third party, providing your API key or similar access token for the Services to a third party, or otherwise linking your Services account to a third-party’s services), we may disclose to the third-party platform or social media network the personal information necessary to facilitate the connection or that you authorized us to share. We do not control the third party’s use of your personal information.

Professional advisors

We may disclose your personal information to professional advisors, such as lawyers, bankers, auditors, and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.

Business transfers

We may sell, transfer, or otherwise share some or all of our business or assets, including your personal information, in connection with a business transaction (or potential business transaction) such as a corporate divestiture, merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, or in the event of bankruptcy or dissolution.

Responding to legal requests, preventing harm, and protecting our rights

We may disclose your personal information to courts, law enforcement, governmental or tax authorities, or third parties. We will make such disclosure to the extent we are required or permitted to do so by applicable law or where we consider such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations or legal process, to respond to claims asserted against us, and for the security and safety purposes described above. We may also disclose your information in response to valid legal requests relating to criminal investigations or alleged or suspected illegal activity or any other activity that may expose CarAgeRental, you, or any other user, or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of CarAgeRental, our users, or others.

We may also disclose your personal information as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy or as disclosed to you at the time of collection.

Your preferences and choices

Correct and update

You can review, correct, update, and edit certain information that has been previously provided to us by you at any time by sending us an email at info@caragerental.com with the Subject Line: “Information Update - (Your Name)” and including all the necessary requested changes in the e-mail. For your protection, we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request.

Account closure

If you wish to close your account and request deletion of your personal information, please send an email to info@caragerental.com with a Subject Line: “Account Closure - (Your Name)”.

Please note that we may be unable to delete information needed to comply with applicable laws, detect or prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, assist with or process claims, troubleshoot problems, assist with any audits and investigations, to enforce our Terms of Service and Policies, and take other actions reasonably necessary, permitted, or required by applicable law. There may also be residual information that will remain within our databases and other records, which will not be removed.

Interest-based advertising choices

Your choices for limiting use of your personal information for interest-based advertising include:

Blocking cookies in your browser. Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies, including cookies used for interest-based advertising. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Using privacy plug-ins or browsers. You can block sites from setting cookies for interest-based ads by using a browser with privacy features, like Brave, or installing browser plugins like Privacy Badger, Ghostery, or uBlock Origin, and configuring them to block third party cookies/trackers.

Choosing not to share your personal information

Where we are required by law to collect your personal information, or where we need your personal information in order to provide the Services to you, if you do not provide this information when requested (or we later delete it at your request), we may not be able to provide you with the Services.

Security

We employ a number of technical, physical, and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, destruction, or alteration while it is under our control. However, no method of transmitting or storing information can be 100% secure and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

Other important information

Cross border transfer

The Services are controlled and operated from the United States. Your personal information may be used, stored, and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers. These locations may be outside of your state, province, or country of residence, and may have different and/or less protective data protection rules than those of your state, province, or country. As a result, this information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts, regulatory agencies, security authorities, or law enforcement in those jurisdictions according to the laws in those jurisdictions.

Sensitive information

We ask that you not send us, and you not disclose, any sensitive information (e.g., Social Security numbers, social insurance numbers, passports, information related to racial or ethnic origin, or health) on or through the Services or otherwise to us unless specifically requested.

Children

The Services are not intended for anyone under the age of 18 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from users under the age of 18. If a child under the age of 18 has already provided us with personal information, his or her parent or guardian may contact us to request that we delete it.

Third-party privacy practices

This Privacy Policy addresses only the use and disclosure of information collected by CarAgeRental. This Privacy Policy does not address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information, or other practices of any third parties, including any third party operating any site or service to which the Services link. The inclusion of a link on the Services does not imply endorsement of the linked site or service by us or by our affiliates. If you disclose your information to others, or if you are directed to a third-party website, their privacy notices and practices will apply.

Translations

Where CarAgeRental has provided you with a version of this Privacy Policy in a language other than English, in case of any wording discrepancies between such version and the English version, the English wording takes precedence.

Changes to this privacy policy

We may change this Privacy Policy. Any changes to this Privacy Policy will become effective when we post the revised Privacy Policy on the Services or as otherwise indicated. Your use of the Services following these changes means that you accept the revised Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree to these changes, you can contact us to close your account.

7. Injury to Others; Insurance. You are responsible for all injury, damage and loss you cause to others. You agree to provide liability, collision and comprehensive insurance covering you, us, and the Vehicle. Where state law requires us to provide auto liability insurance, or if you have no auto liability insurance, we provide auto liability insurance (the “Policy”) that is secondary to all other valid and collectible insurance whether primary, secondary, excess or contingent. The Policy provides bodily injury and property damage liability coverage with limits no higher than minimum levels prescribed by the vehicular financial responsibility laws of the State whose laws apply to the loss. You and we reject PIP, medical payments, no-fault and uninsured and under-insured motorist coverage, where permitted by law. The Policy is void if you breach this Agreement or if you fail to cooperate in a loss investigation conducted by us or our insurer. Giving the Vehicle to an unauthorized driver terminates coverage under the Policy.

All charges are subject to our final audit.

Unless prohibited by law, you release us from all liability for consequential, special or punitive damages in connection with this rental or the reservation of a vehicle. If a provision of this Agreement is deemed void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions are valid and enforceable.
