1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Dealer," "you," or "your") and KMA Auto Inc, a California corporation ("KMA Auto," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of DealerWyze ("Service").

By creating an account or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age, have the legal authority to bind the business entity on whose behalf you are acting, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Service.


2. Description of Service

DealerWyze is a subscription-based SaaS platform designed for independent used automobile dealerships. Core features include customer contact management, lead tracking, two-way SMS messaging, Gmail lead capture, vehicle inventory management, appointment scheduling, and document storage.


3. Account Registration and Security

3.1 You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and keep it updated.

3.2 Your subscription permits access by dealership owners and their staff. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.

3.3 You must maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials. Notify us immediately at [email protected] upon discovering any unauthorized access.

4.1 Subscription Fee. DealerWyze is offered on a monthly subscription basis, billed in advance.

4.2 SMS Usage Charges. SMS messaging features are powered by Twilio. Usage charges are passed through at Twilio's cost plus a service markup, billed monthly in arrears.

4.3 Free Trial. New accounts receive a thirty (30) day free trial with access to all features included in the subscribed plan. After the trial ends, your account enters a seven (7) day grace period. If no payment method is added during the grace period, your account is automatically downgraded to the Free Tier (see Section 5).

4.4 Payment Processing. All payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge the payment method on file for all applicable fees.

4.7 Price Changes. We reserve the right to adjust pricing upon thirty (30) days written notice. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.


5. Free Trial and Free Tier

5.1 Trial Period. The free trial is thirty (30) days and is available once per business entity. Creating multiple accounts to exploit multiple free trials is prohibited and may result in immediate suspension.

5.2 Grace Period. When the trial ends, your account enters a seven (7) day grace period. During this period you retain full access. We will send reminder emails. If you add a valid payment method before it expires, your service continues uninterrupted.

5.3 Free Tier. If no payment method is added by the end of the grace period, your account is automatically downgraded to the Free Tier, which includes: customer management, email communications, vehicle inventory management, BHPH ledger tracking, and basic analytics. The Free Tier does not include Twilio-powered SMS/MMS messaging, the Voice AI Assistant, Video Auto-Poster, automated sequences, or PostGrid card mailings. You may still compose text messages and open your phone's native messaging app to send them manually ("Open Messages").

5.4 Free Tier Duration and Suspension. Free Tier accounts that remain on the Free Tier for ninety (90) consecutive days without adding a payment method may be automatically suspended. Suspended accounts have thirty (30) days to export their data before permanent deletion.

6.3 Data Retention After Cancellation. Following the end of your paid subscription, your data will be retained for ninety (90) calendar days. During this period you may use the data export tool in Settings to download a ZIP file of your data. After the Retention Period, your data will be permanently deleted from our production systems.

9. Data Ownership and License

9.1 You retain all right, title, and interest in and to the data you input into the Service ("Dealer Data"). KMA Auto Inc does not claim ownership of Dealer Data.

9.2 You grant KMA Auto Inc a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to access, process, store, and use your Dealer Data solely to provide and improve the Service. We will not use your Dealer Data for advertising or marketing to your customers.

9.3 We may compile anonymized, aggregated usage data that cannot reasonably identify you or your customers. This aggregated data is our property and may be used to improve the Service.

9.4 You are solely responsible for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, and appropriateness of all Dealer Data you submit.

9.5 Document Storage โ€” Not a System of Record. The document storage feature (vehicle documents, uploaded files, and attachments) is provided solely as a convenience for quick reference during active dealership operations. DealerWyze is not a certified system of record, document management system, or legal archive. You must not rely on the Service as your sole or primary repository for any document that may have legal, regulatory, compliance, or financial significance, including but not limited to vehicle titles, purchase contracts, financing agreements, DMV submissions, warranty documents, or customer consent records. You are solely responsible for maintaining independent, compliant copies of all such documents through appropriate systems. KMA Auto Inc expressly disclaims any liability arising from the loss, corruption, inaccessibility, or deletion of uploaded documents, including documents deleted automatically upon account cancellation or storage cap enforcement. Storage availability is subject to plan limits and may be modified with thirty (30) days notice.

9.6 Storage Quotas and Add-On Packs. Each subscription includes a base document storage allowance of 500 MB shared across all vehicle and customer documents in your account. Additional storage capacity ("Storage Packs") is available as a monthly add-on billed through your existing Stripe subscription: 10 GB for $4.99/month or 25 GB for $9.99/month. Storage Pack pricing is subject to change with thirty (30) days notice. Your effective storage quota is the total of your base allowance plus any active Storage Pack capacity. Uploads that would cause your total stored data to exceed your effective quota will be rejected; you must delete existing documents or upgrade your Storage Pack to continue uploading.

9.7 Storage Pack Cancellation and Grace Period. If your Storage Pack is cancelled, your payment fails, or your overall subscription is downgraded or cancelled, your effective storage quota will revert to the 500 MB base allowance. However, your existing uploaded files will be retained for ninety (90) calendar days from the date of cancellation or payment failure ("Storage Grace Period"). During the Storage Grace Period you may continue to access and download your existing documents, but new uploads above the 500 MB base quota will be blocked. After the Storage Grace Period expires, files that cause your account to exceed the 500 MB base quota will be permanently deleted on a rolling basis, beginning with the largest files. You are solely responsible for downloading and preserving any documents you wish to retain before the Storage Grace Period expires. KMA Auto Inc is not liable for any loss of documents resulting from storage quota enforcement.
