We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time, and your continued use of our platform following such modifications constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. We encourage you to review these terms regularly to stay informed of any changes.

Intellectual Property Rights
All content on our platform, including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, images, calculators, and educational materials, is the intellectual property of our organization or our content providers. These materials are protected by Malaysian and international copyright laws. You are granted a limited license to access and view this content for personal use only. You may not modify, reproduce, distribute, transmit, display, or perform any content without express written permission. Our calculators and tools for computing total cost of ownership, hire purchase interest rates, and fuel budgeting are proprietary resources designed to assist Malaysian vehicle owners.

Limitation of Liability
Our platform provides educational information and calculation tools for informational purposes only. We make no warranties, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any information provided. While we strive to ensure our calculations and guidance regarding car ownership costs, hire purchase methodologies, road tax rates, insurance renewal timelines, and fuel budgeting are accurate, we cannot guarantee absolute precision as these factors may change or vary by individual circumstances. We shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use our services, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Your reliance on any information provided is at your own risk. You acknowledge that financial decisions related to vehicle ownership should be made after consulting with qualified professionals including financial advisors, insurance brokers, and tax specialists. We are not responsible for losses, costs, or damages resulting from your use of our platform or the decisions you make based on information obtained from it.
Termination and Suspension
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to our platform at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice. Grounds for termination may include violation of these terms, engaging in prohibited activities, or any conduct we deem harmful to our platform or other users. Upon termination, your right to use our services ceases immediately, and you must destroy any copies of our content in your possession. We may also suspend our services temporarily for maintenance, updates, or technical improvements without prior notice. We are not liable for any loss or damage you may suffer as a result of service suspension or termination. If your access is terminated due to a violation of these terms, you may not attempt to regain access or create new accounts to circumvent the suspension. Our decision to terminate or suspend is final and binding. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of significant service interruptions, though such notification is not guaranteed.
General Provisions
These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding your use of our platform. If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Malaysia. Any disputes arising from your use of our platform shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of Malaysian courts. We may assign our rights and obligations under these terms to any third party without notice to you, but you may not assign these terms without our written consent. The failure to enforce any provision of these terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision. Your use of our educational resources regarding car ownership costs, hire purchase agreements, road tax obligations, insurance renewal requirements, and fuel budgeting demonstrates your understanding and acceptance of these terms. We reserve all rights not explicitly granted to you under these terms.
