- supplied by Experian
- Experian is the underlying data provider for finance, theft, write off, mileage and related

17. Use of Artificial Intelligence, Automated Outputs, Research Purpose and Non Reliance
Some elements of Rapid Car Check’s services make use of automated systems, including artificial intelligence, to process, summarise, categorise or present vehicle related data obtained from third party sources. Any artificial intelligence assisted content, summaries, indicators or explanatory outputs are provided solely to help users interpret and understand complex information more easily.
Such outputs do not constitute factual assertions, confirmations, certifications or guarantees and must not be treated as definitive or authoritative statements. Artificial intelligence does not replace original data sources, does not independently verify the accuracy of underlying records and does not have access to information beyond that supplied by third party data providers at the time of processing. Rapid Car Check makes no representation or warranty that any artificial intelligence assisted outputs are complete, accurate, current or suitable for any particular purpose and accepts no liability arising from reliance on such outputs.
Vehicle reports and any associated summaries, insights, indicators or artificial intelligence assisted explanations are supplied strictly for personal research and information purposes only. Reports are intended to assist users in carrying out their own enquiries and must not be relied upon as proof of a vehicle’s condition, ownership, legal status, history, suitability or value.
Users acknowledge and agree that vehicle history information is compiled from multiple independent third party data sources, that not all events, defects, financial interests or records may be captured or available at the time a report is generated, that the absence of a record does not confirm that no issue exists, that artificial intelligence assisted outputs may involve assumptions, classifications or probabilistic assessments based on available data, and that a vehicle’s condition, ownership status or legal position may change at any time after a report is produced.
Rapid Car Check does not provide mechanical, legal, financial or professional advice and does not act as an agent, broker or advisor in relation to any vehicle transaction. You must not rely on any report, whether generated wholly or partly using artificial intelligence, as the sole basis for deciding whether to purchase, sell, finance, insure or otherwise transact in relation to a vehicle. Independent inspections, confirmations and professional advice should always be obtained where appropriate.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rapid Car Check accepts no responsibility or liability for decisions made, actions taken or losses incurred as a result of reliance on information contained within any report or artificial intelligence assisted output.
18. Automated Processing and Data Interpretation
Some aspects of Rapid Car Check’s services involve automated processing, aggregation and interpretation of data received from third party sources. Such processing is designed to present information in a clearer and more accessible format only. It does not introduce new source data, override original records or guarantee the accuracy, completeness or relevance of the underlying information.
Automated outputs may involve assumptions, thresholds or classifications based on the data available at the time of processing. These outputs are indicative only and should not be relied upon as definitive statements of fact. Rapid Car Check shall not be liable for any inaccuracies, omissions or interpretations arising from automated processing, data aggregation or data presentation.
19. Time Sensitivity of Data and Artificial Intelligence Outputs
All reports and any artificial intelligence assisted outputs reflect information available only at the date and time the check is carried out. Rapid Car Check has no obligation to monitor, update or notify users of changes to vehicle data, third party records or artificial intelligence derived outputs after a report has been generated.
Users requiring up to date or current information must carry out a new check.
20. Limitation of Liability in Relation to Artificial Intelligence and Automated Outputs
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rapid Car Check shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost or decision arising from the use of, or reliance on, artificial intelligence outputs, automated summaries or data interpretations provided through the service.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited under applicable United Kingdom law.
21. No Endorsement or Approval
The inclusion of any data, summary or output within a Rapid Car Check report does not constitute endorsement, approval or verification of a vehicle, seller, lender or insurer. Rapid Car Check does not guarantee that a vehicle is roadworthy, legally owned by the seller, free from defects or suitable for any particular purpose.

6. Data Provision and Liability
RCC obtains vehicle data from official and commercial sources, including but not limited to the DVLA, DVSA, PNC, MIAFTR and Experian PLC. Data may be delayed, incomplete, or temporarily unavailable due to upstream supplier or network issues.

RCC’s total aggregate liability, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, shall not exceed the total value of the Client’s subscription fees for the previous month.
7. Plugin and Website Compatibility
The Rapid Car Check Plugin is tested against current versions of WordPress and PHP at the time of release. RCC makes no guarantee that the Plugin will operate correctly with all WordPress themes, plugins, or hosting environments. Any conflicts or integration issues arising from the Client’s specific setup are outside the scope of included support. Troubleshooting or custom development required to resolve such conflicts will be chargeable at RCC’s standard hourly rate. The Client acknowledges that installing, activating, or updating the Plugin is done at their own risk and should be tested in a staging environment prior to deployment on a live website.

RCC provides documentation and limited support for installation and configuration queries. Ongoing maintenance, custom integration, or data-feed implementation beyond the standard product scope will incur additional charges. Support is available via our online Support Centre at https://www.rapidcarcheck.co.uk/support/.

RCC may suspend or terminate access immediately if:
- The Client breaches these Terms.

13. Indemnity
The Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless RCC, its directors, and employees from any claims, damages, or legal actions arising out of the Client’s use of the Plugin, API, or supplied data.
