These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Salvager mobile application and website at salvager.bid (the "Service"), operated by Carsmart Inc ("we," "our," or "us"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms.
Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and a legal resident of the United States to use Salvager. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.
Account Registration
To use Salvager, you must create an account by providing accurate information, including your name, phone number, and ZIP code. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.
Listings and Transactions
- Sellers may list vehicles for sale through the Service. By listing a vehicle, you represent that you are the legal owner or authorized to sell it.
- Buyers (dealers, junkyards, towing companies) may place bids on listed vehicles. By placing a bid, you commit to honoring that bid if the seller accepts it.
- Salvager facilitates connections between buyers and sellers but is not a party to any transaction. We are not responsible for the condition, title, or transfer of any vehicle, or for payment between parties.
Fees
Salvager charges sellers a small percentage of the final sale price of each vehicle sold through the Service. Current fees are displayed in the app and may be updated from time to time. Fees are deducted from the final sale amount.
Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
- List vehicles you do not own or are not authorized to sell.
- Provide false or misleading information about a vehicle.
- Use the Service to engage in fraudulent or illegal activity.
- Harass, threaten, or abuse other users.
- Attempt to circumvent the bidding system or evade fees.
- Use automated means to access or scrape the Service.
SMS Communications
Account creation does not enroll you in SMS notifications. SMS notifications (bid alerts, listing notifications) are sent only to users who have separately and explicitly opted in via the SMS consent checkbox during signup in the Salvager app, or via the SMS Notifications setting in the app's Profile screen. Account verification SMS messages (one-time passcodes during signup) are transactional and may be sent as part of the signup process. Users may opt out of ongoing SMS at any time by replying STOP to any Salvager message or by toggling SMS Notifications off in the app. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Service Area
Salvager currently operates in the Denver, CO metropolitan area. Coverage may expand to additional regions over time. Listings outside the service area may not receive bids.
Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. We make no representations about the quality, safety, or legality of vehicles listed on the Service.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Carsmart Inc shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service, including disputes between buyers and sellers. Our total liability shall not exceed the fees you have paid to us in the twelve months preceding the claim.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Carsmart Inc, its officers, employees, and agents from any claims arising out of your use of the Service or violation of these Terms.
Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for violation of these Terms or for any other reason at our discretion. You may close your account at any time by contacting bids@salvager.bid.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Colorado.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Terms on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
