The terms governing your use of the CarDealerCMS platform and services.
Last Updated: May 2025These Terms and Conditions govern the relationship between Website Designer Derby (trading as CarDealerCMS), a business registered in England and Wales, with its principal place of business at 47 Western Drive, Heanor, Derbyshire, DE75 7DP ("CarDealerCMS", "We", "Us" or "Our") and any individual or business ("User", "You" or "Your") who accesses or uses the CarDealerCMS platform, software, or related services.
By registering for an account, accessing the platform, or using any of our services, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions.
CarDealerCMS provides a web-based content management system designed specifically for car dealerships, including tools for managing vehicle listings, lead capture, customer enquiry handling, and website content management.
You confirm that all information provided during registration is accurate, current, and complete, and that you are at least 18 years of age with full legal authority to enter into a binding agreement. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
Accounts are non-transferable. You may not sell, transfer, or allow any other person or business to use your Account without our prior written consent.
All fees are quoted in Pounds Sterling (GBP). We are not currently VAT registered, so no VAT is added — the price shown is the price you pay. Should we become VAT registered in future, we will give notice before any change takes effect. Subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis and will automatically renew unless you cancel before the renewal date.
CarDealerCMS reserves the right to amend its pricing at any time. Where price increases affect existing subscribers, we will provide at least 30 days' notice before the change takes effect.
You may cancel your subscription at any time via your Account settings or by contacting us at [email protected]. Upon cancellation, you will retain access until the end of your current billing period. No partial refunds will be issued for unused time within a billing period.
Refunds are not offered on subscription fees already charged, except where required by the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or other applicable UK consumer law.
You may request deletion of your Account at any time by contacting us in writing. Requests will be processed within 30 days. Certain data may be retained for periods required by applicable law — financial records are retained for a minimum of 6 years in accordance with HMRC regulations.
CarDealerCMS grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Platform for your internal business purposes only. You must not:
All intellectual property rights in the Platform are owned by or licensed to CarDealerCMS. Nothing in these Terms transfers any intellectual property rights to you.
Any content you upload to the Platform ("Your Content") remains your property.

You warrant that Your Content does not infringe the rights of any third party.
You agree not to use the Platform to upload unlawful or defamatory content, infringe third-party intellectual property rights, transmit malware or viruses, attempt unauthorised access to the Platform, send unsolicited communications, misrepresent your identity, or violate any applicable UK or international law.
CarDealerCMS reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Account immediately if we reasonably believe you have engaged in any prohibited activity, and to report such activity to the relevant authorities.
CarDealerCMS operates in compliance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Full details of how we collect, use, and protect your personal data are set out in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.
You are responsible for ensuring that any personal data relating to your customers that you process using the Platform is handled in accordance with applicable data protection law.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CarDealerCMS shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss or damage, including loss of profits, loss of data, or business interruption.
Our total aggregate liability to you shall not exceed the total Subscription Fees paid by you in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
Nothing in these Terms excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
CarDealerCMS endeavours to keep the Platform available at all times but does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. The Platform may be unavailable from time to time due to maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you in advance of planned maintenance where possible.
CarDealerCMS reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Where changes are material, we will notify you by email at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms and Conditions and any disputes arising from them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Both parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
