Services.
CarBuckets is not a vehicle seller, dealer, broker or agent for vehicle sellers or dealers, nor a provider of, or broker or agent for, automotive insurance or other automotive-related products or services offered by third parties. Any brand names or logos, particularly those relating to the make and model of a vehicle, contained on the Website are the intellectual property of their respective owners. You agree to indemnify and hold CarBuckets harmless in connection with any claim that CarBuckets is acting as an automotive dealership or broker, insurance broker, or any professional business entity, as such terms are defined by applicable state law.
All information provided on our Website is for informational purposes only. Information displayed through the services related to any vehicle you may configure, such as dealer cost, factory invoice, market average, MSRP, or other value, either reflects or is based on available data relevant to your vehicle and does not reflect a dealer’s price for an actual vehicle consistent with your preferences. Any savings information that you may receive from a selling dealer or user is provided directly to you by the selling dealer or user and is not provided by CarBuckets. Any incentive offer that you may receive from vehicle manufacturers through your use of the Services is provided directly to you by that vehicle manufacturer and is not provided by CarBuckets. The terms and conditions of these incentive offers are determined by the applicable vehicle manufacturer, and not by CarBuckets. CarBuckets may also provide you with valuable access to links to third-party sites where you can obtain financing and insurance. Information you may receive from third parties is provided directly to you by that financial institution or insurance provider and is not provided by CarBuckets.
Neither the accuracy of information provided on this Website, nor the availability, quality, or safety of vehicles, or any financing of or insurance relevant to those vehicles, is guaranteed or controlled by CarBuckets, and CarBuckets assumes no responsibility for the foregoing. You agree that any reliance on the information on this Website is at your own risk. Any discrepancies or mistakes made regarding vehicle availability, condition, pricing, financing, insurance, and the like are not the responsibility of CarBuckets and should be directed to the dealer or appropriate third-party vendor. You are encouraged to thoroughly review any documents you are asked to sign at the time of purchase or lease of a vehicle or of other products or services. We do invite you to bring to our attention any material on our Website that you believe to be inaccurate; please forward a copy of such material and your reasons for your belief to [email protected].
By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that participating dealers may not have in inventory a new vehicle that exactly matches any vehicle you may configure on the website, and certain models or configurations may not be available. Your dealer will confirm vehicle availability, including available options and colors, from actual inventory. Each dealer sets and controls its own pricing. You may negotiate the purchase price directly with the dealer, and CarBuckets plays no role in that negotiation. The savings information communicated directly to you by a selling dealer for a vehicle consistent with the preferences expressed in any vehicle you may configure may change if the actual in-stock vehicle that you choose to buy differs from the configuration of your vehicle. Used vehicles are subject to prior sale.
For the avoidance of doubt, CarBuckets is solely a research and communications platform. CarBuckets is not a vehicle seller, dealer, broker, or agent for vehicle sellers or dealers, nor a provider of, or broker or agent for, other automotive-related products or services offered by third parties. CarBuckets receives a fee from the participating dealerships or Third-Party Service Providers in connection with the services.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction
You agree that your use of the Website shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Florida, without regard to conflict of law rules. The courts of Miami-Dade County Florida shall have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement that is not subject to Arbitration. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Website or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of these Terms and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
Termination
You agree that CarBuckets, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your access to the Website for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if CarBuckets believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of Website may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. CarBuckets may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Website or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Website under any provision of this Terms may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that CarBuckets may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Website. Further, you agree that CarBuckets will not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of your access to the Website.
ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION
Arbitration.
For purposes of this Agreement, you and CarBuckets are each referred to as a “Party” and collectively, as the “Parties”. The Parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, which shall be a requirement prior to either Party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including its formation, performance and breach) and the Website shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Consumer Arbitration Rules, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to determine the validity of any claim and to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the Parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, we will pay the additional cost. The exclusive seat or place of jurisdiction shall be Miami-Dade County, Florida.
The Parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
Class Action Waiver.
The Parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the Parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. No class action arbitration is permitted. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the Parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
Exception – Litigation of Small Claims Court Claims.
Notwithstanding the Parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either Party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.
Thirty (30) Day Right to Opt-Out.
You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth this Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following address: Car Buckets Corp., 6538 Collins Avenue, Unit 58, Miami Beach, Florida 33141. Attention: Accounts Department. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first use of or access to the Website, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms set forth above. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them. In addition, if you elect to opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we may elect to terminate your use of the Website.
