Terms of Service

These terms apply when you use Workshop Assistant (https://workshopassistant.online). By creating an account or using the service you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

1. The service

Workshop Assistant is a tool that searches indexed workshop-manual content and uses AI to write answers about vehicle repair and diagnosis, with source references, diagrams and community notes. It is provided by Alexander Widmark (“we”, “us”). The service is in beta: features, coverage and limits can change.

2. Answers are guidance, not professional advice

Answers can be incomplete, out of date or wrong, including torque values, specifications and procedures. You are responsible for checking them against the official workshop manual and your vehicle before acting.

• Follow normal workshop safety practice, especially for brakes, steering, SRS/airbags, fuel, electrical and lifting work.
• If you are unsure or lack the skills or equipment, use a qualified mechanic.
• Community notes are opinions from other users, shown separately from the manual. We review them but do not guarantee them.

3. Your account

• You must be at least 16 years old and give accurate information.
• Keep your password secure. You are responsible for activity on your account.
• One person per account. Do not share or sell access.
• Tell us promptly if you think your account has been compromised.

4. Free beta, quota and paid plans

Accounts get a monthly quota of questions at no charge during the beta. We may change the quota or end the free beta, and will give reasonable notice. Paid plans, if you choose one, are billed through Stripe. You can manage or cancel your subscription from your account. Unless required by law, fees already paid are not refunded for a partly used period.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• break the law or infringe anyone’s rights;
• attempt to bypass quotas, rate limits or access controls, or create accounts in bulk;
• scrape, copy at scale, resell or republish the service’s content or answers;
• probe, overload or disrupt the service, or attempt to access other users’ data;
• submit false, harmful, defamatory or misleading content, or content you do not have the right to share;
• use the service to build a competing product or to train AI models.

6. Content you submit

You keep ownership of what you submit (questions, feedback, community notes). You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, review, edit for clarity, and display it as part of the service, and to use it to improve the service. Approved community notes may be shown to other users without your name. You confirm that you have the right to submit it.

7. Our content and third-party material

The service, its design and software belong to us. Workshop-manual text, diagrams and trademarks (including Mitsubishi) belong to their respective owners and are shown for reference to help you work on your own vehicle. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Mitsubishi Motors or any other manufacturer.

8. Availability and changes

We aim to keep the service running but do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of it.

9. Suspension and termination

You can stop using the service and ask us to delete your account at any time (see data deletion). We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms or put the service or other users at risk.

10. Disclaimer and limit of liability

The service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind to the extent the law allows. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for damage to vehicles, property, injury or loss arising from your use of or reliance on the answers. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or SEK 1,000 if you paid nothing. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or your rights as a consumer.

11. Privacy

How we handle personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by Swedish law. Disputes go to the Swedish courts, but if you are a consumer you keep any mandatory rights you have under the law of the country where you live.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date above shows the latest version. If a change is material we will tell you in the app or by email. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept it.
