5. Customer Content

“Customer Content” means information, text, images, logos, trademarks, inventory data, website information, instructions, keywords, analytics data, and other material you submit, connect, upload, or make available through the Services.

You retain ownership of your Customer Content.

You grant Dealer Blogs a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, access, reproduce, process, modify, analyze, transmit, and display Customer Content only as reasonably required to:

You represent that Customer Content does not violate any law or third-party right.

6. Generated Content and Output

“Output” means articles, images, metadata, topic suggestions, reports, summaries, internal-link recommendations, and other material generated through the Services for your account.

As between you and Dealer Blogs:

• You retain ownership of your Customer Content;
• Dealer Blogs does not claim ownership of your customer-specific Output; and
• To the extent Dealer Blogs acquires rights in your Output, Dealer Blogs assigns those rights to you after payment of all applicable subscription fees.

You may use, edit, publish, reproduce, and distribute Output for your business.

However, you acknowledge that:

• Artificial intelligence output may not qualify for copyright protection in every jurisdiction;
• Similar or identical output may be generated for other users;
• Dealer Blogs does not guarantee that Output is unique or exclusive;
• Output may contain errors, omissions, outdated information, or inaccuracies; and
• Output may require human review before publication.

Dealer Blogs does not guarantee that you will obtain intellectual property protection for generated content or images.

7. Customer Review and Publishing Responsibility

You are responsible for reviewing Output before or after publication, depending on your selected publishing settings.

You are responsible for confirming:

• Factual accuracy;
• Inventory availability;

• Pricing;
• Offers and promotions;
• Financing claims;
• Legal disclosures;
• Trademark use;
• Image suitability;
• Internal links;

• Compliance with manufacturer, franchise, advertising, and industry rules.

When automatic publishing is enabled, you authorize Dealer Blogs to publish generated content without prior manual approval.

You remain responsible for content published through your account, including content published automatically.

You can disable automatic publishing at any time. When automatic publishing is disabled, scheduled and newly generated articles may remain queued until you manually publish them or re-enable automatic publishing.

8. Internal Links and Vehicle Links

Dealer Blogs may create links to dealership pages identified through website scans, approved URL lists, inventory pages, and previously published articles.

Dealer Blogs does not intentionally invent dealership URLs. However, we cannot guarantee that every linked page will remain available.

If you or your website provider later:

• Delete a page;
• Change a URL;
• Replace the website;
• Change the website structure; or
• Restrict access to a page,

the old link may lead to an error or 404 page.

You are responsible for updating or removing affected links.

Articles may link to specific vehicle-detail pages while those pages remain available. When supported, a sold or unavailable vehicle link may fall back to a relevant new or used inventory search-results page.

Dealer Blogs does not guarantee that all website platforms will support this fallback behaviour.

9. Publishing Methods and Installation

Dealer Blogs may provide content through:

• A Dealer Blogs website widget;
• An RSS feed;
• Manual copying or exporting; or
• Other supported publishing methods.

Dealer Blogs provides the applicable code, feed, connection details, and general installation instructions.

You or your website provider are responsible for:

• Installing the widget or RSS feed;
• Configuring your website;
• Maintaining your website platform;
• Providing required permissions;
• Ensuring compatibility; and
• Addressing restrictions imposed by your website provider.

Dealer Blogs does not provide general website development, CMS administration, hosting support, plugin repair, firewall configuration, security configuration, or unrelated website coding.

We may inspect publicly accessible website code to help identify Dealer Blogs installation or display issues.

10. Subscriptions and Billing

Dealer Blogs is provided through paid recurring subscriptions.

Available billing periods may include:

• Monthly;
• Quarterly; and
• Annual subscriptions.

Unless otherwise stated, all plans include the same primary product features. Pricing may differ based on billing frequency, promotions, currency, taxes, and the date of purchase.

By purchasing a subscription, you authorize Dealer Blogs and its payment processor to charge your selected payment method for:

• The initial subscription payment;

Subscriptions automatically renew for the same billing period unless cancelled before the next renewal date.

For example:

Prices are displayed before purchase.

Taxes may be calculated based on your billing location and applicable tax requirements.

Refund processing times may depend on the payment processor and financial institution.

13. Cancellation

You may cancel your subscription at any time through any cancellation method provided in your account or by emailing:

hello@getdealerblogs.com

Cancellation prevents the next automatic renewal.

Unless otherwise required by law:

• Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period;
• You retain access until the end of that paid period;
• Previously paid fees are not prorated;
• Unused time is not converted into a credit; and
• Payments are non-refundable except under the 14-day money-back guarantee or where required by law.

Deleting content, disconnecting an integration, or ceasing to use the Services does not automatically cancel your subscription.

14. Content and Access After Cancellation

When your subscription ends:

• Your right to access and use the Dealer Blogs platform may end;
• New article generation stops;
• Automated publishing stops;
• Inventory scanning and reporting stop;
• Account integrations may be disconnected;

Content displayed only through a Dealer Blogs-hosted widget or feed may no longer display after the subscription ends.

You are responsible for exporting or copying any content you wish to retain before your access ends.

Dealer Blogs may retain account information and content for a limited period for backups, legal compliance, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and service administration, as described in the Privacy Policy.
