  • The applicable usage limitations


  • Auto-renewal unless cancelled


  • Chariot’s full Terms of Service and billing policies


This clause survives plan expiration and applies retroactively to any access granted under subscription.



21.2 Plan Provider & Billing Platforms

21.2 Plan Provider & Billing Platforms

All Chariot subscription transactions are managed through third-party billing platforms, which may include:

  • Apple App Store (iOS devices)

  • Google Play Store (Android devices)

  • RevenueCat (cross-platform billing middleware)


By subscribing, you explicitly authorize these providers to charge your account at the applicable billing cycle (weekly, monthly, or annual) and agree to their respective terms, including refund and cancellation policies.



Key Conditions Include:

  • Apple/Google Terms Apply First:
    For in-app purchases made via iOS or Android, Apple and Google’s billing policies govern cancellation, refunds, billing errors, and tax handling. Chariot cannot override or intervene in native platform disputes.


  • Recurring Billing:
    Unless cancelled in advance of the renewal date, your plan auto-renews at the stated price. You are responsible for managing subscription status through your app store settings or device account.


  • RevenueCat as Integration Layer:
    RevenueCat facilitates receipt validation, cross-device entitlement syncing, and usage tracking. It does not directly charge users, but it handles logic across billing sources to activate or restrict access based on subscription status.




Responsibility for Payment

You are solely responsible for:

  • Ensuring your payment method remains valid


  • Monitoring plan renewals and pricing changes


  • Cancelling on time to avoid unwanted charges


  • Understanding your store’s local tax, VAT, or surcharge handling


Failure to pay or resolve billing issues may result in immediate loss of access to subscription-only features, reports, or session data.



Jurisdiction and Support

  • Platform billing disputes must be directed to Apple or Google support.


  • For entitlement errors or RevenueCat syncing issues, users may contact support@chariotreport.com.


This clause applies globally and survives subscription cancellation to cover all billing-related activity under your account.




21.3 Payment Terms

21.3 Payment Terms

By initiating a subscription to any Chariot plan, you agree to the following binding payment terms:



Recurring Billing Authorization

You authorize Chariot, via its billing partners (Apple App Store, Google Play, RevenueCat), to:

  • Charge your selected payment method at the published rate on a recurring basis (weekly, monthly, or annually)


  • Continue billing automatically until you cancel or downgrade your subscription through the proper platform


  • Adjust charges as applicable in accordance with tax changes, currency conversion, or plan updates (with prior notice where required)




Billing Cycle and Due Dates

  • Your billing cycle begins immediately upon subscribing.


  • Renewal charges occur automatically on the same calendar day as the original purchase, or the last day of the month if no equivalent date exists.


  • If you cancel mid-cycle, your access continues until the end of the current paid term unless otherwise stated.




Failure to Pay or Renew

If a payment fails due to insufficient funds, expired card, chargeback, or dispute:

  • Chariot may immediately revoke access to any subscription-gated features, reports, or historical files.


  • Your account may be downgraded to free-tier status without warning.


  • Usage data and stored files tied to your subscription may be subject to early deletion or archival based on your plan’s retention rules (see Section 19.3).


  • If unpaid for more than 14 days, your subscription may be terminated permanently without data recovery guarantees.




No Partial Refunds

Unless required by law or platform policy, partial refunds will not be issued for mid-cycle cancellations, account inactivity, or unused entitlements. This applies to all billing intervals.



Taxation and Currency

  • All published prices are exclusive of applicable sales tax, VAT, or GST, which may be added based on your billing location.


  • Currency conversion fees or discrepancies are handled by your bank or card provider and are not the responsibility of Chariot.




Your Responsibilities

You must:

  • Maintain accurate and valid payment information with your billing provider


  • Monitor renewal dates and manage cancellations through the appropriate platform (Apple/Google)


  • Ensure prompt resolution of any charge issues or reversals


This payment clause survives subscription cancellation, account suspension, and is enforceable under the governing law described in Section 37.



21.4 Usage Limits Per Plan

21.4 Usage Limits Per Plan

Each Chariot subscription tier comes with explicit usage allocations that govern access to core features, including image uploads, AI chat interactions, PDF/contract scans, and vehicle report previews. These limits are strictly enforced and may reset on a daily or monthly cycle depending on the user’s active plan.



Examples of Tier-Based Limits (subject to change with notice):

FeatureWeekly PlanMonthly PlanAnnual PlanAI Chat Prompts5/day15/day50/dayImage Uploads2/day10/day30/dayPDF/Contract Scans2/week8/month25/monthReport Previews2/month5/month20/monthStorage Duration30 days90 days180 days

Enterprise plans may negotiate custom limits and SLAs by contract.



Reset Logic

  • Daily limits reset every 24 hours from the user’s last usage timestamp


  • Monthly limits reset at the start of each calendar month


  • Unused daily or monthly quotas do not roll over

  • If a limit is exceeded, the related feature will return a “limit reached” message, and access will be temporarily restricted until the next reset or plan upgrade




Feature-Specific Enforcement

  • AI Chat Requests: Includes prompt + response pairings. Excessive use may be rate-limited (see Section 15.11)


  • Image Uploads: Each uploaded car photo counts toward the plan’s quota, regardless of analysis result or cancellation


  • PDF Scans: Multi-page contract uploads count as one scan per document, not per page


  • Report Previews: Includes VIN decoding, summary analysis, or visual risk flags without full report generation




Plan Upgrade Enforcement

Users who exhaust their feature limits will be prompted to:

  • Wait until reset (daily or monthly)


  • Upgrade to a higher plan

  • Purchase add-ons if such extensions are made available


Chariot may auto-detect unusual usage patterns and apply throttling if attempts are made to circumvent usage caps through multiple accounts or device switching (see Sections 20.2 and 20.24).



Fair Use Enforcement

Usage limits are in place to protect system stability, maintain fair access across users, and prevent resource hoarding. Attempted abuse of limit resets, API rerouting, or scripted usage will result in revoked access or account penalties.

This clause survives plan change or cancellation and governs all feature entitlements under active and expired subscriptions.




21.5 Weekly Plan Terms

21.5 Weekly Plan Terms

The $4.99/week Chariot plan provides entry-level access to core AI features, intended for short-term or trial-based usage. It includes light but meaningful interaction with the platform’s core tools but does not unlock full vehicle reports, detailed PDF analysis, or historical report retrieval.



Included Features (Typical Limits):

FeatureWeekly Plan AccessImage UploadsUp to 5 per dayAI Chat ThreadsUp to 2 new sessions per dayPDF/Contract ScansUp to 1 scan per dayVIN Decoding✅ Basic summary onlyVisual Risk Flags✅ Included (limited detail)Storage Duration30–45 daysSupport AccessSelf-service onlyFull Report Access❌ Not included

All limits are subject to enforcement policies described in Section 21.4 and reset daily at midnight (UTC-5).



Not Included in Weekly Plan:

  • Full Vehicle Reports (Standard, Premium, or Max Insight tiers)


  • Report purchase discounts

  • Extended clause-by-clause PDF analysis

  • Chat priority or long-form model access

  • VIN-linked report history

To obtain full reports or unlock professional-level analysis, users must purchase a report separately or upgrade to a monthly or annual subscription.



Billing and Auto-Renewal

  • Billed at $4.99 per 7-day cycle via Apple/Google/RevenueCat (see Section 21.2)


  • Renews automatically unless cancelled in your App Store or Play Store account


  • Cancel anytime to stop future renewals (access remains until current cycle ends)




Fair Use and Abuse Detection

Users are prohibited from:

  • Sharing login credentials to extend usage


  • Creating multiple accounts to reset daily caps


  • Uploading malformed files to trigger repeated scans


Violations may result in suspension or plan revocation without refund (see Section 20.10).



Plan Upgrade Path

Weekly users can upgrade at any time to:

  • Monthly ($14.99) — for consistent use, higher limits, and access to standard reports


  • Annual ($99.99) — for full features, deep analysis, and VIP tier perks


This clause survives cancellation and governs all past and future usage under the Weekly plan tier.




21.6 Monthly Plan Terms

21.6 Monthly Plan Terms

The $14.99/month Chariot plan is designed for regular users who require enhanced access to Chariot’s AI features, faster processing, and broader interaction across vehicle intelligence tools. It strikes a balance between affordability and professional utility—ideal for casual shoppers, used car buyers, or repeat researchers.



Included Features (Typical Limits):

FeatureMonthly Plan AccessImage UploadsUp to 10 per dayAI Chat SessionsUp to 15/day, priority model accessPDF/Contract ScansUp to 8 per monthVIN Decoding✅ Full access with risk flagsCondition Flagging✅ Multi-point analysis previewsContract Breakdown✅ Surface-level clause summariesStorage Duration90–120 daysSupport AccessStandard support queueFull Report Access❌ Not included by default — purchase separately

Plan limits reset monthly (calendar-based) and are subject to throttling rules defined in Section 21.4.



Preview-Level Analysis

This plan includes:

  • ✅ Condition image preview summaries (e.g., mismatched paint, visible damage)

  • ✅ PDF scan previews showing:

    • Detected warranties

    • Arbitration clauses

    • Finance charges or missing signatures

These previews give you enough detail to assess risk, but do not include full report formatting, AI insights across sections, or price benchmarks — which require a separate one-time report purchase (Standard, Premium, or Max Insight).



What This Plan Does Not Include:

  • ❌ Full report access (unless purchased à la carte)

  • ❌ Max Insight visual overlays

  • ❌ Unlimited scans or chat

  • ❌ Data exports or CSV summaries

  • ❌ Custom contract markup



Upgrade Options

Users may upgrade to:

  • Annual Plan ($99.99/year) — for full report integration, deeper clause breakdowns, and extended limits

  • Or purchase individual reports directly in-app for $14.99–$49.99



Billing Terms

  • Charged monthly via your selected app store (Apple, Google) or RevenueCat

  • Auto-renews unless cancelled before renewal date

  • Access remains valid through billing cycle end upon cancellation



Fair Use and Abuse Policy

This plan includes moderate but protected access to Chariot’s infrastructure. Attempts to:

  • Circumvent scan caps

  • Chain multiple accounts

  • Extract reports for resale or team use

will result in enforcement under Sections 20 and 15.11. Chariot reserves the right to revoke access or throttle features upon detection of suspicious usage.



This clause governs all entitlements under the Monthly Plan, survives cancellation, and applies to historical usage and any associated user data stored under this tier.




21.7 Annual Plan Terms

21.7 Annual Plan Terms

The $99.99/year Chariot plan is the most comprehensive subscription tier, designed for power users, serious buyers, resellers, or professionals who rely on ongoing vehicle intelligence, contract risk analysis, and high-volume uploads.

This plan unlocks the full suite of platform capabilities, extended usage thresholds, and deeper insights not available in lower tiers. It is also the only tier that includes a limited free trial, subject to platform and app store rules.



Included Features (Compared to Monthly Plan):

  • Only available to new subscribers; returning users are not eligible for multiple trials


  • All trial activity is logged and subject to usage monitoring (see Sections 15.1–15.14)

  • Auto-renews annually unless cancelled through platform settings before renewal date


  • If cancelled mid-cycle, access continues through the remainder of the paid term; no prorated refunds



Limitations

  • ❌ Does not include unlimited full vehicle reports — these remain one-time purchases


  • ❌ Cannot be combined with group/team access unless covered by commercial license (see Section 15.12)




Fair Use and Misuse Detection

  • Chariot monitors annual plan usage to prevent abuse of elevated thresholds


  • Attempts to share accounts, reroute prompts, or scrape AI outputs at scale are grounds for termination (see Section 20)




Survival and Applicability

This clause applies to all current and former Annual Plan users, governs entitlement boundaries, and survives cancellation or account deletion. All stored data under this tier remains subject to retention and deletion policies in Section 19.




21.8 Upgrade/Downgrade Policy

21.8 Upgrade/Downgrade Policy

Users may change their Chariot subscription plan (e.g., upgrade from Weekly to Monthly, downgrade from Annual to Monthly) at any time, subject to the following rules and platform-specific constraints:



Effective Date of Plan Change

  • App Store / Google Play billing rules apply:


    • Upgrades (e.g., Weekly → Monthly) may take effect immediately with a prorated charge, or at the end of the current period, depending on platform


    • Downgrades (e.g., Monthly → Weekly) typically apply after the current billing cycle ends

  • If purchased through RevenueCat or third-party checkout:


    • Upgrades are applied upon confirmation and may trigger immediate access to higher-tier limits


    • Downgrades queue for next renewal cycle



Plan Entitlements and Lock-In

  • Chariot guarantees all plan features and limits displayed during checkout for the duration of the billing cycle in which the plan was purchased


  • Changes to plan contents, prices, or entitlements will not apply retroactively to active subscriptions


  • If a legacy plan is no longer offered, you may not be able to return to it once downgraded or cancelled




Trial → Paid Conversion

  • Users on a 3-day Annual Plan trial (see Section 21.7) will automatically convert to paid unless they cancel at least 24 hours prior to expiration

  • Cancelling during a trial forfeits all plan entitlements immediately, including early access features and higher usage limits




Partial Refunds

  • Chariot does not offer partial refunds for mid-cycle downgrades or unused time


  • Cancelled or downgraded plans remain active until the end of the billing term




Subscription Management

  • All subscription changes must be made via the original purchase platform:


    • App Store: via device Settings → Subscriptions


    • Google Play: via Play Store → Subscriptions


    • RevenueCat or Chariot Web Checkout: via in-app Account Settings


  • Support cannot override App Store or Play Store billing policies




Abuse Monitoring

Frequent switching between plans to exploit tier-based feature resets or trial loopholes will result in:

  • Plan change throttling

  • Loss of eligibility for future trials

  • Possible account suspension under Sections 20 and 15.11




This clause governs all subscription changes and applies across all Chariot billing tiers. It survives account cancellation and platform transitions.



21.9 Cancellation Policy

21.9 Cancellation Policy

You may cancel your Chariot subscription at any time by managing your active subscriptions through the platform on which you originally subscribed. Chariot does not have the ability to cancel or modify your subscription internally due to App Store and Google Play billing restrictions.



Where to Cancel:

  • Apple App Store:
    Go to Settings > [Your Name] > Subscriptions on your iOS device and select Chariot to cancel.


  • Google Play Store:
    Open the Play Store > Menu > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions, then select Chariot and cancel.


  • RevenueCat or Direct Checkout (if applicable):
    Use the Account Settings within the Chariot app or website and follow the cancellation link provided.




Important Terms:

  • Cancellation will stop future renewals, but does not refund the current billing period.


  • Your plan remains active until the end of your current subscription cycle, unless cancelled during a trial period (see Section 21.7).


  • Chariot cannot override billing policies, issue refunds, or cancel your subscription on your behalf due to platform lock-in and third-party billing rules.




Trial Cancellations:

  • If you signed up under a 3-day free trial, you must cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends to avoid being charged.


  • Cancelling a trial immediately revokes access to premium features.




Non-Refundable Access:

  • Chariot subscriptions are non-refundable once billed, including in cases of:


    • Inactivity


    • Forgotten cancellations


    • Perceived underuse of the platform


For refund exceptions, you must request directly through Apple or Google. Chariot does not control refund approval decisions made by app store platforms.



This policy survives account deletion and applies to all users, regardless of tier, location, or method of signup.



21.10 Refund Policy

21.10 Refund Policy

All Chariot subscription purchases are final and non-refundable once processed. Due to platform-level billing systems (Apple App Store, Google Play), Chariot cannot issue refunds directly and has no control over refund decisions.



Where to Request a Refund:

PlatformRefund ProcessApple App StoreVisit reportaproblem.apple.com and log inSelect your Chariot subscription and request a refundGoogle PlayVisit play.google.com, select Chariotand submit a refund request through the order history

Note: Apple and Google review each refund request individually based on factors like timing, usage, and eligibility.



Refunds Are Not Granted For:

  • Forgetting to cancel before renewal


  • Inactivity or infrequent usage


  • Disagreement with plan limits after purchase


  • Trial users charged due to late cancellation


  • Platform outages or third-party service delays


  • Abuse of the platform’s trial, upload, or AI tools (see Section 20.10)




RevenueCat or Web Checkout Users:

If your subscription was billed via a non-app store checkout (e.g. through Stripe via RevenueCat), contact support@chariotreport.com with:

  • Your original purchase email


  • Transaction ID


  • Reason for the refund request


Refund eligibility will follow the same strict no-refund policy, unless exceptional circumstances apply.



No Pro-Rated Refunds

Chariot does not issue partial refunds for:

  • Mid-cycle cancellations


  • Downgrades between plans


  • Switching platforms (e.g., iOS → Android)




Appeals and Disputes

If you believe you were charged in error, your only recourse is through the Apple or Google billing dispute resolution mechanisms. Chariot is not a billing agent and cannot intervene on your behalf with those platforms.



This refund policy applies universally and survives account cancellation or removal.



21.11 Restore Purchases

21.11 Restore Purchases

If you have previously purchased a Chariot subscription on your device using the Apple App Store or Google Play, you may restore access to your plan by tapping the “Restore Purchases” button inside the app. This initiates a secure check with your app store account through RevenueCat, which validates and reinstates your prior entitlements.



When to Use Restore:

  • After reinstalling the Chariot app


  • When switching devices but using the same Apple ID or Google account


  • If your subscription is active, but premium features appear locked


  • After a failed receipt sync or entitlement refresh




What Happens When You Restore:

  • The app will communicate with Apple/Google via RevenueCat


  • If a valid, unexpired subscription is found, your plan tier (Weekly, Monthly, Annual) will be reinstated immediately

  • You will not be double-billed, and your original billing cycle will remain unchanged


  • Access to AI features, usage limits, and stored reports will be restored in accordance with your plan




Important Conditions:

  • Restores only work if:


    • You're signed in with the same Apple/Google account used during the original purchase


    • Your original subscription is still active and not expired or refunded

  • If no valid subscription is found, no access will be granted


  • Restores do not reactivate cancelled plans or expired free trials




Limitations:

  • Cannot transfer subscriptions between platforms (e.g., Apple → Google or vice versa)


  • Manual billing systems (e.g., Stripe) do not support restore; contact support@chariotreport.com for assistance


  • Restore is not a refund tool and does not modify your billing cycle or plan tier




Support Note:

If the Restore button fails to reactivate your plan despite a valid purchase, contact support@chariotreport.com with:

  • Proof of purchase (App Store/Google receipt)


  • App version


  • Platform (iOS or Android)


We will assist with verifying your entitlement manually via RevenueCat if needed.



This clause applies to all platform-bound subscriptions and survives app reinstall, logout, and device transitions.




21.12 Trial Abuse Prevention

21.12 Trial Abuse Prevention

Chariot enforces strict controls to prevent abuse of free trials, particularly the 3-day trial associated with the Annual Plan. The intent of these trials is to allow new users to evaluate Chariot’s premium capabilities before committing to a paid subscription.



Prohibited Trial Abuse Includes:

  • Creating multiple Chariot accounts to repeatedly access trial periods


  • Using device resets, emulator environments, or system re-installs to regain eligibility


  • Sharing trial-enabled accounts with others


  • Engaging in high-volume usage or scraping behavior during a trial to extract report data without payment


  • Initiating refunds immediately after trial conversion, then reattempting a new trial




Detection & Enforcement Measures:

Chariot may monitor and flag trial abuse using:

  • Device fingerprinting and account linking

  • Usage pattern recognition (e.g., repeated trials from the same IP or MAC address)


  • Behavioral anomaly detection

  • RevenueCat subscription lifecycle tracking

If abuse is detected, the following actions may occur without notice:

ViolationConsequenceDuplicate account trial circumventionImmediate trial revocation on all linked accountsDevice-level exploit attemptsFeature bans or full account suspensionRepeat refund/trial abuseApple/Google report for ToS violation or fraudCommercial scraping or resale during trialPermanent ban and legal review under Section 20



One Trial Per User, Per Device

You are eligible for only one free trial per lifetime unless explicitly extended by Chariot support. Even if you cancel before the trial ends, future trial access will be permanently blocked on that account and device.



Platform Enforcement

Abuse cases involving Apple or Google accounts may result in:

  • Platform-level trial ineligibility

  • Loss of refund privileges through App Store or Google Play


  • Flagging for developer policy review by Apple/Google, beyond Chariot’s control




No Appeals for Confirmed Trial Abuse

Once abuse is confirmed through device/account correlation or behavioral analysis, no appeal or exception will be granted. All decisions are final and non-reversible.



This clause applies to all free trial features, regardless of platform, and survives account deletion or reinstallation attempts.




21.13 Auto-Renewal Notice

21.13 Auto-Renewal Notice

All Chariot subscriptions are subject to automatic renewal at the end of each billing period unless explicitly canceled by the user at least 24 hours before the next scheduled charge.



Key Terms of Auto-Renewal:

  • Subscriptions (Weekly, Monthly, Annual) automatically renew using the same plan tier and payment method unless canceled in time


  • Renewal charges are processed via the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Chariot’s authorized billing provider (e.g., RevenueCat)


  • The renewal rate will be the current published price for that tier at the time of renewal, which may differ from your original sign-up rate




Notice and Disclosure:

  • Chariot clearly discloses auto-renewal during checkout, including:


    • Plan frequency (e.g., “Billed Weekly” or “Renews Monthly”)


    • Total price including taxes/fees (where applicable)


    • Platform-specific billing terms


  • Users are reminded of auto-renewal in the Account Settings screen and subscription management page




User Responsibilities:

  • It is your sole responsibility to track your renewal date and cancel before renewal if you do not wish to be charged


  • Chariot is not liable for charges incurred due to failure to cancel on time


  • Cancelling a subscription after the renewal date does not entitle you to a refund for the current period




How to Cancel Auto-Renewal:

PlatformHow to CancelApple App StoreGo to iOS Settings > [Your Name] > Subscriptions, then cancel ChariotGoogle PlayOpen Play Store > Menu > Subscriptions, locate Chariot, and cancelRevenueCatOpen Chariot app → Account > Manage Subscription, follow cancel instructions



No Manual Overrides:

Chariot cannot manually stop auto-renewals on your behalf due to platform limitations. You must cancel through the original purchase platform.



Trial Conversions and Renewals:

If you signed up under a free trial, you must cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends to avoid automatic conversion to a paid plan.



This clause applies globally to all Chariot subscription tiers, persists across app reinstalls, and survives account deletion until the platform billing relationship is severed.



21.14 Fair Use Monitoring

21.14 Fair Use Monitoring

Chariot reserves the right to monitor subscription usage patterns and enforce Fair Use limits across all plans to maintain platform stability, prevent abuse, and ensure equitable access to AI resources.



What Constitutes Excessive Use:

Examples of activity that may trigger fair use enforcement include, but are not limited to:

  • Submitting dozens of image uploads or document scans in rapid succession


  • Using automation, bots, or third-party scripts to simulate manual activity


  • Consuming unusually high token volume within a short window (e.g., multi-threaded prompt flooding)


  • Attempting to resell, redistribute, or export reports at scale using a consumer-tier account


  • Accessing the system in a way that mimics commercial or enterprise use without the appropriate license




Enforcement Actions Chariot May Take:

TriggerResponseUsage exceeds 2–5x average tier limitSoft throttling (e.g., slower response times, temporary cooldowns)Suspected automated scrapingImmediate rate caps and behavior reviewSustained overuse across daysIn-app message suggesting plan upgrade or requiring manual approvalBypassing feature limitsFeature restrictions or permanent suspension (see Section 20)



Soft vs Hard Limits:

  • Soft Limits: Token or request slowdown, visual warnings, system cooldowns


  • Hard Limits: Session blocks, report generation lockout, suspension flags




Plan Upgrade Requirement:

If your usage indicates enterprise-grade or developer-level activity, Chariot may require that you upgrade to a commercial or custom plan in order to continue access.



Transparency & Notice:

  • Chariot will make reasonable efforts to inform users in-app before suspending or restricting usage


  • However, immediate enforcement may occur without prior notice if activity jeopardizes platform performance or violates Section 20




No Refund for Overuse Lockouts:

If your usage is capped or blocked due to fair use enforcement, you are not entitled to a refund for that billing period. Sustained fair use violations may void renewal eligibility.



This clause applies across all subscription tiers, including trial and paid accounts, and survives account suspension or deletion for post-review purposes.




21.15 Account Suspension for Nonpayment

21.15 Account Suspension for Nonpayment

If Chariot is unable to successfully process your recurring subscription payment—whether due to expired payment methods, insufficient funds, or billing platform errors—your account may be subject to immediate downgrade, service interruption, or full suspension.



Triggers for Suspension:

  • Your card is declined or expired


  • Your Apple/Google account fails to authorize renewal


  • RevenueCat or platform partner reports failed billing status


  • A chargeback or payment dispute is filed




What Happens Upon Nonpayment:

EventConsequencePayment fails (1st attempt)Plan downgraded to free/basic tier with usage restrictionsPayment fails (after retries)AI features disabled, report access locked, session limits resetPayment fails > 3 daysAccount flagged for inactivity suspensionChargeback issuedImmediate termination and potential platform ban



Reactivation Process:

To restore access, you must:

  1. Update your payment method through Apple, Google, or the in-app restore screen


  2. Resolve any outstanding billing issues (e.g., open disputes or invalid credentials)


  3. Wait for RevenueCat or the app store to confirm payment clearance


  4. Chariot will automatically re-enable features if payment is verified within a 7-day grace window




Important Conditions:

  • Past generated reports may be hidden during a suspension but are recoverable upon reactivation


  • Suspension does not cancel your subscription—you remain liable for charges unless manually canceled


  • Repeated failed payments may restrict future subscription eligibility


  • Chariot is not responsible for missed usage during periods of account suspension




This clause applies globally to all subscription tiers and survives app reinstallation or device change.



21.16 Device Restrictions

21.16 Device Restrictions

Chariot subscriptions are licensed per user account and intended for individual use on a limited number of personal devices. To protect service integrity, platform fairness, and prevent abuse, the following device-related restrictions apply:

Your plan may be voided, downgraded, or suspended if Chariot detects:

  • Simultaneous login and usage from multiple unrelated devices


  • Sharing of your login credentials with friends, family, or teams


  • Sideloading or unauthorized APK installs on emulators or modified environments


  • Accessing the same account from more than 2–3 distinct device IDs in a 30-day period


  • VPN hopping or geo-anomalies tied to login activity across different regions




Enforcement Actions

Violation TypeConsequenceMinor inconsistency (e.g., new phone)Temporary warning or re-authentication challengeSuspected account sharingFeature lockdown or forced logout from all devicesConfirmed multi-user or emulator useImmediate subscription voiding and account suspensionAttempt to bypass limits via sideloadPermanent ban or legal review under ToS Section 20



Device Reset or Upgrade

If you change phones or reinstall Chariot:

  • Use the Restore Purchases button to resume your subscription


  • Access may be temporarily restricted while your new device is fingerprinted and validated




Commercial or Team Use

Multi-user access across a fleet of devices (e.g., dealerships, repair shops, content teams) requires a commercial license. Individual plans may not be used to support group workflows.



This restriction survives app reinstallation, logout, or subscription expiration. Violation may result in data loss, locked features, or permanent removal from Chariot.



21.17 Geographic Restrictions

21.17 Geographic Restrictions

Chariot reserves the right to restrict subscription availability, pricing, feature sets, or access based on a user's country, app store territory, or local legal requirements. Not all plans or services are guaranteed to be available in every region.



Regional Availability

  • Subscription tiers (e.g., Weekly, Monthly, Annual) may vary by country or app store region

  • Certain features, AI capabilities, or report types may be disabled in countries with:


    • Export control restrictions


    • Data sovereignty laws


    • Sanctions or embargoed status


  • Some regions may only offer basic-tier access, with premium features unavailable



Payment and Pricing Differences

  • Prices shown in-app are adjusted for local currency and tax via Apple or Google


  • Some countries may reflect higher pricing due to local tax (e.g., VAT, GST) or app store surcharges


  • Chariot reserves the right to exclude free trials or adjust discount offerings by region




Geo-Detection and Enforcement

Your country and eligibility may be determined based on:

  • App store billing location


  • Device geolocation at signup


  • Payment method region


  • IP address and time zone


Attempts to bypass geographic restrictions via VPN, fake billing addresses, or altered app installs may result in:

  • Plan removal or denial


  • Account suspension (Section 20 enforcement)


  • Refund ineligibility




Relocation or Travel

If you relocate to a different country:

  • Your current plan remains active, but access to region-specific features may be limited


  • You may need to cancel and resubscribe in the new country’s app store to maintain service




This clause applies globally and is subject to periodic updates based on changing regulatory environments or Chariot’s commercial expansion roadmap.



21.18 Change of Plan Terms

21.18 Change of Plan Terms

Chariot reserves the right to modify subscription pricing, usage limits, or feature entitlements at any time, provided that at least 30 days’ notice is given to affected users. These changes may reflect:

  • Platform upgrades


  • Infrastructure cost changes


  • App store policy shifts


  • New regulatory compliance requirements




Notice & Communication

  • Users will be notified of upcoming changes via:


    • In-app banners


    • Email (if available)


    • App Store/Google Play terms update notifications


  • Notices will specify:


    • The effective date of the change


    • The new pricing or usage terms

    • Options to cancel, upgrade, or switch plans



Grandfathered Access

  • Existing subscribers may retain legacy pricing or entitlements for a limited grace period

  • Legacy access is not guaranteed indefinitely and may be phased out with advance notice


  • Users may voluntarily migrate to updated plans at any time




Plan Tier Restructuring

Chariot may:

  • Rename or reclassify plans


  • Merge tiers (e.g., combining Monthly and Annual into a Pro tier)


  • Split features into add-ons or usage bundles


  • Introduce optional boosts or expanded quotas under the same plan




No Retroactive Refunds

If you do not accept updated terms:

  • You may cancel your subscription before the change takes effect


  • Refunds are not issued for unused time on the current plan once changes are implemented


  • Continued use of the service after the change constitutes acceptance of the new terms



This clause applies globally and survives account suspension, feature freezes, or app store de-listings. Chariot retains full discretion in determining the timing and scope of pricing updates.



21.19 No Resale of Subscription Access

21.19 No Resale of Subscription Access

Your Chariot subscription is licensed for personal, individual use only. You may not resell, rent, lease, sublicense, or bundle your subscription access, login credentials, or features to third parties under any circumstance.



Prohibited Activities Include:

  • Sharing access to your account as part of a service package or consulting offer


  • Selling usage of your chat sessions, reports, or AI outputs to others


  • Embedding Chariot’s capabilities into another app, site, or dashboard


  • Offering “Chariot-powered” reports or analysis under a different brand


  • Allowing team members, clients, or customers to use your personal subscription




Commercial Licensing Requirement

If you wish to use Chariot in a business, research, or resale capacity, you must:

  • Obtain explicit written approval from Chariot


  • Sign a commercial licensing agreement

  • Comply with all data handling, billing, and attribution requirements for enterprise use


Failure to follow this process will result in:

  • Immediate account termination

  • Loss of access to stored files and reports


  • Possible legal enforcement under intellectual property misuse clauses




No White Label or Proxy Use

You may not:

  • Disguise Chariot as another tool through proxy prompts


  • Remove, alter, or hide Chariot branding in any shared output


  • Automate Chariot for third-party access via middleware or APIs




This clause survives cancellation, and applies to all usage—whether during trial, active subscription, or plan-limited access. Violations may trigger enforcement under Sections 20 and 25.




21.20 Discounts & Promotions

21.20 Discounts & Promotions

Chariot may offer time-limited promotions, onboarding incentives, or discount codes (e.g., 50% off your first month after purchasing a vehicle report) to encourage user activation and conversion. These offers are governed by the following conditions:



Eligibility & Terms

  • Promotions may be:


    • Automatically applied based on user activity (e.g., report purchase)


    • Distributed via email, in-app banners, or partner codes


    • Limited to new users or first-time subscribers

  • Each offer includes:


    • A defined expiration date

    • A clear benefit (e.g., price reduction, extra credits)

    • Restrictions on reuse, transfer, or stacking with other offers




Non-Transferability

  • Discounts are non-transferable and may only be redeemed by the account that qualified for the offer


  • Attempting to share, resell, or redeem the same promotion across multiple accounts may result in:


    • Offer invalidation


    • Account review or feature suspension




One-Time Use

Unless explicitly stated:

  • Promotions are one-time only

  • Multiple redemptions from the same device, IP, or payment method may be blocked




Promotional Expiry

  • Expired offers cannot be reactivated, extended, or retroactively applied


  • It is your responsibility to redeem discounts before the expiration date



Promotional Abuse

Chariot reserves the right to revoke any promotional benefit if it determines that:

  • The offer was used deceptively (e.g., multiple signups from the same user)


  • Systematic abuse patterns are detected


  • The promotion interferes with system integrity or violates app store policies




All discounts are optional, revocable, and subject to change. Chariot is not obligated to offer price-matching or extend expired incentives. This section survives termination of your subscription or account.



21.21 RevenueCat Policy Compliance

21.21 RevenueCat Policy Compliance

All subscription features, billing operations, and access logic within Chariot are managed and enforced via RevenueCat, a third-party subscription infrastructure provider. By using Chariot’s paid plans, you agree to comply with both:

  • Chariot’s internal subscription terms, and


  • RevenueCat’s SDK-level enforcement policies



Binding Integration

  • Chariot uses RevenueCat to:


    • Manage entitlements and plan validation


    • Process and verify purchases across Apple and Google platforms


    • Enforce usage caps and plan-based gating logic in real time


  • The RevenueCat system is considered authoritative for:


    • Determining whether a plan is active


    • Verifying trial eligibility


    • Handling plan upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations


    • Resolving conflicting purchase states




SDK Enforcement

You consent to RevenueCat’s automated enforcement methods, including:

  • Suspension of features if payment fails


  • Blocking restoration attempts from unauthorized devices


  • Delaying access during purchase validation windows


  • Cancelling entitlements for refunded or revoked transactions




Policy Updates

RevenueCat may update its platform logic or enforcement criteria in response to:

  • App store requirements


  • Fraud prevention initiatives


  • SDK upgrades or deprecations


You are bound by these updates to the extent that they impact your access to Chariot features.



No Direct Support via RevenueCat

All billing questions, refund requests, or subscription disputes must be directed to:

  • Apple App Store or Google Play, for payment issues


  • Chariot support for feature access or entitlement questions


RevenueCat does not provide end-user customer support and is not responsible for resolving disputes directly.



This clause survives plan cancellation or account termination and applies to all subscriptions initiated through Chariot’s mobile app or linked app store profiles.



21.22 Feature Gating

21.22 Feature Gating

Chariot reserves the right to limit access to specific features based on your subscription tier. Some advanced capabilities are only available to users on Monthly, Annual, or Enterprise plans. This access model, known as feature gating, is applied to ensure fair platform usage, control system load, and align access with pricing tiers.



Examples of Gated Features

Features currently or potentially gated to higher-tier plans include:

  • Deep Search — Expanded contextual reasoning across multiple documents or queries


  • Condition Trends — AI-driven timelines of vehicle wear, repair probability, or visual inconsistencies


  • Historical Insight — Pattern detection based on past uploads, prior reports, or comparative vehicle analysis


  • Report Downloading — High-resolution PDF exports of multi-section insights


  • Clause Breakdown — Detailed legal commentary or markup for uploaded contracts


  • Extended Chat Memory — Larger token/session windows for AI conversation continuity


  • Early Access Tools — Beta features or experimental models for power users




Dynamic Gating

Feature gating is not static and may change over time based on:

  • Improvements in AI capabilities


  • Infrastructure costs


  • Tier popularity and demand


  • Abuse risk or content complexity


Chariot may introduce new features as gated, or reclassify existing features, with or without notice, based on operational needs.



Visibility & Transparency

In-app, gated features will be:

  • Labeled clearly with plan requirements


  • Disabled with a tooltip or modal explaining required upgrade


  • Accessible via upgrade prompts directing users to eligible plans




No Refunds for Plan Mismatch

  • If you attempt to access a feature outside your current plan, access will be blocked until you upgrade


  • No refunds or partial credits will be issued for users who expected access without upgrading




This section survives subscription cancellation or change. Gated features remain Chariot’s intellectual property and are licensed conditionally based on payment tier.




21.23 Feature Availability During Downtime

21.23 Feature Availability During Downtime

In the event of temporary outages, infrastructure failures, or third-party service disruptions (e.g., RevenueCat, app store APIs, or authentication providers), Chariot will attempt to maintain core app functionality while acknowledging potential feature degradation.



Subscription Validation Disruptions

If Chariot is unable to verify your active subscription due to a temporary outage in the RevenueCat service or related platform, the following may apply:

  • Basic app access (e.g., onboarding, static pages, non-gated UI) will remain available


  • Subscription-gated features (e.g., AI chat, image analysis, PDF scans) may be temporarily inaccessible or limited to fallback behavior


  • Session or upload limits may be restricted until validation is restored


  • Cached entitlements may provide grace period access (e.g., 24–48 hours) based on last-known status




No Compensation for Temporary Unavailability

  • Short-term degradation of features due to upstream provider outages does not entitle users to refunds or extensions

  • Chariot is not liable for missed usage windows, report access delays, or disrupted session continuity caused by third-party service failures




Emergency Patching & Failover

Where possible, Chariot may:

  • Fallback to local storage of purchase entitlements


  • Display transparent messaging in-app regarding limited access


  • Throttle non-essential services to maintain stability


  • Resume full functionality automatically when third-party services recover




Exclusions & Limits

This clause does not apply to planned maintenance (which will be scheduled and announced), nor does it apply to permanent feature removals or deprecated functionality.



This policy survives plan expiration and governs Chariot’s handling of subscription logic and feature availability during partial system outages.




21.24 Multiple Subscription Ownership

21.24 Multiple Subscription Ownership

Users may not subscribe to or hold multiple overlapping Chariot subscription plans on the same account, across linked accounts, or on the same device for the purpose of increasing usage caps or bypassing plan limits.



Prohibited Behaviors

  • Subscribing to both Weekly and Monthly plans simultaneously


  • Attempting to create multiple App Store/Google accounts to enable stacked plan benefits


  • Using multiple devices tied to the same Chariot profile to alternate plan activations


  • Registering duplicate accounts to rotate trial access or reinitiate lapsed plans




Enforcement Actions

If overlapping or stacked subscriptions are detected, Chariot may:

  • Automatically downgrade the account to a single active plan


  • Invalidate secondary or conflicting entitlements

  • Reset usage counters based on the active plan tier


  • Flag the account for abuse review under Section 20




App Store Enforcement

Apple and Google may also block or reject attempts to stack subscriptions through their billing layers. Refunds for overlapping purchases must be requested directly through the app store provider, not Chariot.



No Stackable Entitlements

Chariot does not support:

  • Combining upload, scan, or chat limits across plans


  • Unlocking features exclusive to one tier by purchasing another concurrently


  • Transferring unused entitlements from one plan to another




This clause survives account changes and applies to all historical and active plan attempts. Violations may result in plan cancellation, feature suspension, or permanent downgrade without refund.



21.25 Transferability of Plans

21.25 Transferability of Plans

Chariot subscriptions are non-transferable and are permanently tied to the original app store account (Apple ID or Google Account) used to initiate the purchase. Subscriptions may not be moved, reassigned, or shared across platforms or between user profiles.



Platform Lock-In

  • A subscription purchased via the Apple App Store cannot be transferred to a Google Play account, and vice versa.


  • Changing devices does not transfer the subscription unless the new device uses the same app store account.




Account Lock-In

  • Subscriptions are also bound to the Chariot user account associated with the app store ID at time of purchase.


  • You may not transfer subscription access to another Chariot user account, even if you use the same device or payment method.




No Cross-Platform Credit

Chariot does not offer credits, refunds, or pro-rated balances for users attempting to switch platforms mid-subscription. If you change mobile ecosystems:

  • You must cancel your active subscription on the original platform


  • Then re-subscribe on the new platform at current rates and plan terms


  • Any previous entitlements will be lost unless manually restored within the same store account




Exceptions

Platform transfers are only permitted under:

  • Explicit written approval from Chariot


  • Technical error or billing issue confirmed by support


  • Enterprise migration processes under a separate agreement




This policy exists to comply with app store billing rules and protect the integrity of Chariot’s entitlement system. It applies to all plans, including trials, Weekly, Monthly, Annual, and promotional tiers.



21.26 Downtime Compensation Policy

21.26 Downtime Compensation Policy

If Chariot’s subscription services become unavailable for more than 48 consecutive hours due to internal system failure or verified third-party infrastructure disruption (e.g., RevenueCat, Supabase, AI engine), affected users may be eligible for limited compensation, such as service credits or time extensions.



Eligibility Criteria

To qualify for compensation:

  • The outage must last more than 48 consecutive hours, and


  • It must prevent access to core paid features (e.g., AI chat, uploads, PDF analysis) across all users or a large subset of a specific platform


  • The issue must be confirmed by Chariot’s system logs or status reports




Types of Compensation

Compensation, if offered, may include:

  • Time extensions on the current subscription period (e.g., +3 days)


  • Service credit toward a future billing cycle


  • One-time feature unlocks to offset interrupted access (e.g., bonus scans or chats)


All credits are issued at Chariot’s discretion and are non-cash, non-transferable, and not guaranteed.



Exclusions

You are not eligible for downtime compensation if:

  • The issue was caused by user-side problems (e.g., poor internet, outdated app version)


  • Your plan was inactive or expired during the affected period


  • The downtime was announced as scheduled maintenance


  • The outage affected non-subscription or bonus-only features




Claim Process

To request compensation, users must:

  1. Contact support@chariotreport.com within 7 days of the incident


  2. Include relevant timestamps, email address, and affected feature(s)


  3. Cooperate with basic troubleshooting or confirmation steps




Chariot reserves the right to decline compensation if abuse or false claims are suspected. This clause survives plan cancellation and applies to all subscription tiers.



21.27 Cross-Platform Login Support

21.27 Cross-Platform Login Support

Chariot supports cross-platform login via email, Google, or Apple OAuth, allowing users to access their account across both iOS and Android devices. However, subscription billing and entitlement recognition remain tied to the original app store used for purchase.



What Cross-Platform Login Enables

  • You may sign into Chariot on any device using your verified email or OAuth method


  • Your vehicle reports, uploads, and chat history will sync across devices


  • Your account profile and app settings will persist when switching between Android and iOS




What It Does Not Do

  • Your subscription plan does not transfer between Apple App Store and Google Play


  • You cannot activate features tied to your Apple subscription on an Android device, or vice versa


  • Plan entitlements are enforced through the app store’s billing system (via RevenueCat), not solely through your login



Practical Example

  • If you subscribe on iOS using your Apple ID and log in later on Android with the same email, you can access your account—but paid features will not be unlocked unless you also subscribe on Google Play


  • You may only restore purchases within the same app store ecosystem



Recommendations

  • For cross-device access, always use the same login method (e.g., email/OAuth)


  • For full plan portability, stay within one app store platform


  • If switching platforms permanently, cancel your original subscription and re-subscribe on the new platform




This clause ensures login consistency while preserving app store billing compliance. It applies to all users, regardless of plan tier or trial status.



21.28 Refund Fraud Prevention

21.28 Refund Fraud Prevention

Chariot actively monitors for refund abuse and chargeback fraud. Users who engage in repeated, excessive, or deceptive refund behavior may have their accounts suspended, blocked, or permanently terminated without notice.



Examples of Refund Abuse

  • Submitting multiple chargebacks through Apple or Google while continuing to use the service


  • Repeatedly requesting refunds after accessing premium features

  • Exploiting trial periods followed by charge disputes


  • Using multiple accounts to rotate subscriptions and demand refunds


  • Attempting to reverse payment after receiving full reports, scans, or AI usage




Enforcement Actions

If refund fraud is detected, Chariot may:

  • Suspend or ban the associated user account


  • Deny future refunds regardless of claim justification


  • Block the device ID or app instance from future usage


  • Report activity to Apple, Google, or payment processors for platform-level enforcement




Refund Appeals

Legitimate refund requests must:

  • Be submitted directly through Apple App Store or Google Play in accordance with their policies


  • Include proof of issue (e.g., billing error, app crash logs)


  • Not originate from a previously flagged account or device


Chariot cannot override platform-level refund decisions, but reserves the right to deny future access based on past abuse.



Permanent Risk Flagging

Accounts involved in verified refund fraud may be marked internally and may:

  • Lose access to report history and stored uploads


  • Be denied future trials, discounts, or promotions

  • Be restricted from re-subscribing even under new credentials




This policy applies retroactively to all refund activity. Chariot takes platform integrity seriously and treats abuse as a violation of commercial terms under Sections 20 and 21.



21.29 Paid Report Integration

21.29 Paid Report Integration

Chariot’s paid subscriptions do not include full vehicle reports by default. These reports—priced between $15 to $50 depending on depth—are treated as one-time in-app purchases (IAPs) and are billed separately from Weekly, Monthly, or Annual plans.



Subscription ≠ Report Ownership

  • Subscribing to a Chariot plan does not grant access to standard, premium, or Max Insight vehicle reports


  • Reports must be purchased individually unless your plan or promotional bundle explicitly includes one or more free reports



IAP Structure

  • Reports are priced and billed via Apple or Google in-app purchases

  • Each report purchase unlocks permanent access to that specific report, stored under your account


  • No recurring billing applies to standalone report purchases


  • You may view your purchased reports on any device by logging into the same account




Bundled Exceptions

Some subscription or promotional offers may include a report credit, such as:

  • 50% off your first Monthly plan after purchasing a report


  • Free Max Insight report for Annual subscribers (if stated in promo terms)


  • Trial bundles that unlock one report during onboarding


Such exceptions will be clearly stated at time of purchase. If no report entitlement is mentioned, none is included.



No Cross-Application Credit

  • Report purchases cannot be substituted for subscription time


  • Subscription plans cannot be refunded in exchange for unused report access




Refund Independence

  • Refunds for reports and subscriptions are processed separately via Apple or Google


  • Purchasing a report does not entitle you to a refund for your subscription, or vice versa




This clause ensures transparency between recurring plan value and one-time premium report purchases. It applies to all users and plan tiers unless otherwise specified in a promotional agreement.



21.30 Clause Survival

21.30 Clause Survival

All terms outlined in Section 21 regarding subscriptions—including but not limited to payment obligations, usage limits, refund restrictions, abuse policies, and feature gating—survive cancellation, plan downgrade, or account deletion.



Post-Termination Enforcement

Even after a user:

  • Cancels a subscription


  • Downgrades to a free tier


  • Deletes their account


Chariot reserves the right to:

  • Audit prior usage for abuse, fraud, or violation of subscription terms


  • Enforce payment obligations or collect unpaid balances


  • Restrict future access or trial eligibility based on historical behavior


  • Retain logs and receipts tied to subscription activity for billing, support, and dispute resolution




Retroactive Application

This survival clause authorizes Chariot to:

  • Apply updated enforcement measures retroactively during fraud audits or refund abuse reviews


  • Deny reinstatement or block re-subscription if prior terms were violated, regardless of current account status




Data & Entitlement Persistence

  • Any previously purchased reports remain accessible if the user logs in again


  • Chariot may retain billing records and support logs per its data retention policy even after account deletion


  • Legacy plan details may be used to determine eligibility for pricing, upgrades, or compensations



This clause remains in effect indefinitely to support fair use, financial integrity, and platform governance.
