Ai InLine’s Role

Ai InLine does not manufacture, distribute, sell, repair, lease, or otherwise deal in vehicles. Our Platform operates to connect car dealerships with individuals looking to buy or service vehicles, including you. If you use the Platform when shopping for or purchasing a vehicle, you are dealing directly with the dealership. Ai InLine is not a party to any agreement between you and the dealership, and nothing on the Platform should be considered an offer to contract.

Ai InLine is not responsible for any information provided to you through the Platform by the dealership. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or currency of any information communicated on or through the Platform, including information about vehicle prices, model features, or payment plans. The information on the Platform is provided for your convenience, and you use it at your own risk.

Data Collection and Use How We Collect Data

Ai InLine collects personal data through a chat widget integrated into the front end of the car dealership’s website. Users can interact with the chat to inquire about vehicles or services. If the chatbot determines that the user has an intent to purchase and requires further support, it will request the user’s contact information, specifically their name, email address, and phone number.

Types of Data Collected

• Name
• Email Address
• Phone Number

No other personal data is collected through the chat widget.

Data Retention

Ai InLine retains the collected personal data internally and provides it to the respective car dealership whose website the chat widget is integrated into. The retention period of the data by the car dealership is subject to their own terms of use and privacy policies.

Data Sharing

Sharing with Third Parties

We collect the following types of personal information to provide and improve our services, including names, email addresses, phone numbers, and conversation data. The collected data is exclusively provided to the respective car dealership to facilitate further support and follow-up on user inquiries.

User Rights

Accessing, Correcting, and Deleting Data

Users have the right to access, correct, or delete their personal data collected by Ai InLine. There are two ways for users to exercise these rights:

1. Contacting the Dealership Directly: Users can contact the car dealership whose website the chat widget is integrated into to request access, correction, or deletion of their personal data.
2. Re-engaging with the Chat: Users can re-engage with the chat widget on the dealership’s website, provide their name, and specify instructions to update their data or to delete it and ensure they are not contacted again.

Security Measures

Ai InLine takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements various measures to protect it. Personal data collected through our chat widget is stored on secure servers provided by Microsoft Azure, which is known for its robust security and compliance standards.

We continuously monitor and enhance our security practices to ensure the protection of your data.

Service Availability

Ai InLine’s chatbot services operate using a Large Language Model (LLM) API and are subject to changes based on the best performing LLM available in the market at the time of use. Our services are reliant on the LLM being online and operable.

Please note that if the LLM, specifically the OpenAI model we currently use most frequently, is offline, our services may also be unavailable. Ai InLine does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service and is not responsible for any disruptions or downtime caused by issues with the LLM or other external factors.

Changes to Terms

The terms of use are subject to change, and the date of the last update will be indicated at the top of the page. Users are required to agree to the terms prior to using the Platform. To ensure you are aware of the most current terms, please review the terms of use page regularly.

By continuing to use the Platform after any changes to the terms of use, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. If you do not agree to the updated terms, you should discontinue using the Platform.

Disputes

You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions and agreements (if any) with the Dealership, on or off the Platform. You further agree that Ai InLine will have no liability or responsibility with respect to such interactions and agreements. Ai InLine reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and the Dealership. You agree that you will not seek to involve Ai InLine in any such dispute as a party, whether by way of cross-claim, counterclaim, third-party claim, or any other method.

In the event of any dispute or claim connected with the Platform or these Terms, such dispute or claim will be resolved by binding arbitration under applicable arbitration rules. Arbitration may be conducted remotely or in person. If conducted in person, the arbitration will take place in a location agreed upon by both parties.

The arbitrator will be a neutral arbitrator agreed upon by the parties. If the parties are unable to agree on a neutral arbitrator, either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to designate a neutral arbitrator to serve as arbitrator.

The arbitration will be conducted informally, under rules agreed to by the parties. If the parties cannot agree on rules, they agree to let the arbitrator determine the rules of the arbitration.

The costs of the arbitration (other than each party’s legal fees) will be shared equally between you and Ai InLine. Each party is responsible for its own legal fees.
