Terms of Use

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the VFindR website at vfindr.co.uk ("the Site"), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Site. Your continued use of the Site following any update to these Terms constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

About VFindR

VFindR is operated by VFindR Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales. The Site provides a community-powered platform with three core features:

• A Stolen Vehicle Database — allowing users to submit and search reports of stolen vehicles.
• A Sightings Tool — allowing users to log reports of suspicious vehicle activity in their area.
• A Vehicle Business Directory — allowing members of the public to find, and vehicle trade businesses to list, vehicle-related services across the UK.

VFindR is a community supplement only. It is not an official law enforcement tool, emergency service, or substitute for reporting crime through proper police channels. All stolen vehicle and sighting reports are stored locally in the user's own browser and are not transmitted to or monitored by VFindR, police, or any authority.

Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to use this Site. Users aged 13–17 should have parental or guardian consent. By using the Site, you confirm that you meet this age requirement.

The Site is intended for use by residents of the United Kingdom. We make no representation that the Site or its content is appropriate or available for use in other jurisdictions. If you access the Site from outside the UK, you do so at your own risk and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

Community Reports — Stolen Vehicles & Sightings

4.1 Nature of Reports

Reports submitted through the Stolen Vehicle and Sightings features are stored locally in your browser only (using localStorage). They are not transmitted to VFindR's servers, are not monitored by VFindR, and are not shared with police or any authority. VFindR does not verify the accuracy of any report submitted.

4.2 Your Responsibilities as a Reporter

By submitting a stolen vehicle report or sighting, you confirm that:

• The information you provide is truthful and accurate to the best of your knowledge.
• For stolen vehicle reports, the vehicle belongs to you or you have authority to report it on behalf of the owner.
• You will always report vehicle theft to the police (101 or 999 in emergencies) in addition to submitting a report on VFindR.
• You will not include any information that you know to be false, misleading, or defamatory.
• You will not use the report system to target, harass, or harm any individual or business.

4.3 No Police Monitoring

VFindR community reports are not monitored by any police force, law enforcement agency, or emergency service. Do not use VFindR in place of reporting to the police. VFindR accepts no liability for any loss or harm arising from a user's failure to contact police directly.

4.4 False Reports

4.5 Safety

Never approach a suspicious vehicle or attempt to recover a stolen vehicle yourself. Always maintain a safe distance and let the police handle such situations. VFindR expressly discourages any vigilante action.

You agree not to use the Site or any of its features to:

• Submit false, fabricated, inaccurate, or misleading information of any kind.

• Collect or harvest any personal data from the Site or other users.
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or systematically download content from the Site.
• Introduce malware, viruses, or other malicious code to the Site.
• Circumvent or attempt to circumvent any security measures on the Site.
