Terms of Service

Please read these Terms of Service carefully before using MotoFolio. By accessing or using the web application, exporting reports, or connecting optional Google Drive synchronization, you agree to the terms outlined below.

Effective Date: November 12, 2026 • Application URL: https://motofolio.pages.dev/

Automotive Safety & Maintenance Disclaimer

Sample service intervals, status badges (Good, Due Soon, Overdue), fuel economy diagnostics, and printable A4 reports are informational record-keeping aids only. Always consult your vehicle manufacturer's owner manual and qualified automotive technicians before operating, servicing, or certifying any vehicle.

01 Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using MotoFolio at https://motofolio.pages.dev/ (including installing it as a Progressive Web App or using any exported templates and reports), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please discontinue use of the application.

02 Description of Service

MotoFolio provides a client-side web interface for managing vehicle profiles, tracking periodic service intervals by distance and calendar time, logging workshop and DIY repair expenses, monitoring fuel economy receipts, tracking road tax and insurance expiry dates, importing/exporting structured CSV and JSON files, generating printable A4 condition and history reports, and optionally backing up vehicle CSV files to your personal Google Drive.

03 Open-Source License (MIT)

MotoFolio's source code is made available under the MIT License. Subject to the MIT License conditions—preserving the copyright and permission notices—you are permitted to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, and self-host the software for personal or commercial purposes.

04 User Responsibilities & Data Backups

  • Accuracy of Entered Records: You are solely responsible for verifying odometer readings, service intervals, OEM part numbers, tax/insurance expiry dates, and cost entries before relying on them or sharing A4 reports with buyers, workshops, or fleet operators.
  • Backups & Local Storage Volatility: Because MotoFolio stores data locally in your browser's localStorage without a central server backup, clearing browser data, switching browsers/devices, or operating in private/incognito browsing sessions may delete unsaved local records. You are responsible for exporting periodic CSV/JSON backups or enabling Google Drive sync.
  • Lawful Use: You agree not to misuse the application, attempt to disrupt hosting infrastructure, or use MotoFolio to falsify vehicle inspection or mileage records.

05 No Professional, Mechanical, or Legal Advice

Archetype templates (such as Sedan, SUV, Hatchback, Pickup Truck, Sports Car, EV, Hybrid, and Van presets) contain generic baseline intervals for convenience only. They do not account for severe driving conditions, manufacturer recalls, regional regulations, or specific vehicle wear. MotoFolio does not provide certified mechanical inspections, financial/accounting advice, or statutory compliance guarantees.

06 Third-Party Services & Google Drive Integration

Optional Google Drive synchronization uses Google Identity Services and the Google Drive API provided by Google LLC. Your use of Google Sign-In and Google Drive is governed by Google's own Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. MotoFolio is independent of Google LLC and is not responsible for Google API rate limits, outages, account lockouts, or changes to third-party CDN/font services.

07 Disclaimer of Warranties & Limitation of Liability

THE SOFTWARE AND SERVICE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DATA DURABILITY, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS, MAINTAINERS, OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DIRECT OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOSS OF DATA, MISSED MAINTENANCE INTERVALS, MECHANICAL FAILURE, OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF MOTOFOLIO.

08 Modifications to Terms

These Terms of Service or application features may be updated at any time. Any revisions will be posted on this page with an updated Effective Date, and continued use of MotoFolio after updates take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
