Terms of Use

§ I. What You’re Getting

A fast, AI-generated snapshot of publicly available information about a mechanic — business registration, online reputation, certifications, and red flags. It’s a screening tool, not a court-admissible verdict. Treat it as one signal among many.

§ II. What the AI Can’t See

We don’t have real-time access to government licensing databases, court records, or sealed BBB complaints. Some businesses keep deliberately thin online footprints. The AI can also misread or miss things. Always verify a mechanic’s credentials directly with your state licensing authority before any major decision.

§ III. Use It Right

This tool is for personal consumer research — you, looking at a mechanic. Don’t use it to harass anyone, defame a business, sabotage a competitor, or scrape reports in bulk. Misuse will get your access cut off.

§ IV. Your Data

We store your email so we can deliver the report and re-send it if needed. Reports are kept for up to seven days, then archived. We don’t sell your data, share it with the mechanic being verified, or hand it to advertisers.

§ V. The Fine Print

Reports are informational. Ethical Mechanic isn’t liable for decisions you make based on what they say. If you spot something inaccurate about a business in a report, email us and we’ll review it.
