2.2 The Services may vary depending on the model, specification and year of release of the Vehicle. If the Vehicle is not capable of receiving the Services, for example, due to local regulatory requirements or for technical reasons, then Honda is under no obligation to provide the Services to you.
2.3 Further details of the Services which are offered by Honda from time to time can be discussed with your Honda Centre, and are available on the FAQ Pages and in the App. Please note that the Services may have limited functionality where you do not have the most recent version of the App or operating system on your smart phone downloaded.
2.4 In order to use the Services you must be at least 18 years old.
2.5 You must notify all drivers of the Vehicle about the Services and associated collection, use and disclosure of data and personal information by Honda and its related entities.
3. Creating a Connected Profile
3.1 In order to use the Services you will be required to create a Honda connected services profile within the App ("Connected Profile"). To create a Connected Profile you must follow the process described in the App which may include you:
3.1.1 downloading and installing the App on your smart phone;
3.1.2 creating a Honda online user account ("Honda Account") by following the process set out in the App Terms; and
3.1.3 providing further details such as your name, address and/or any other information which is required during the creation of your Connected Profile, or any other details which may be requested by us from time to time.
3.2 You must provide us with true, accurate and complete information when creating a Connected Profile and must maintain and promptly update or change that information from time to time as required.
3.3 If you provide untrue, inaccurate or incomplete information when creating a Connected Profile or do not promptly change or update your information from time to time as required, we reserve the right to terminate your Connected Profile with immediate effect and you may no longer be able to use the Services. Please see clause 17 below for further information about our rights to terminate.
3.4 You agree that you shall, and shall be solely responsible for, keeping your password and any other details relating to your Connected Profile safe and confidential. If you believe that anybody has gained unauthorised access to your Connected Profile you should change your password immediately.
3.5 In order to delete your Connected Profile, please follow the process described in the App, and in order to delete your Honda Account, please contact Honda. If you delete your Honda Account, your Connected Profile will also be deleted automatically so please consider the deletion of your Honda Account carefully.
3.6 If at any time you cease to have a Connected Profile, you will not be able to receive the Services. In such cases Honda shall not be required to issue a refund for any unused Services or be liable for any loss of use or availability of the Services.
4. TCU SIM
4.1 Vehicles capable of receiving the Services contain an embedded subscriber identity module chip ("TCU SIM").
4.2 The TCU SIM may not function if your Vehicle battery power is low.
4.3 To link the Vehicle to your Honda Account, a Honda Centre must activate the TCU SIM. This will typically occur when a Honda Centre registers the Vehicle as a new car, if you request that the Honda Centre activate the Services before you take delivery of the Vehicle. If the TCU SIM is not activated at that time, you will need to take the Vehicle to a Honda Centre to activate the TCU SIM in order to link the Vehicle to your Honda Account.
4.4 The TCU SIM and its connection to a mobile telecommunications network is managed by Honda's third party network provider. By purchasing or ordering the Services, you confirm that you consent to the TCU SIM being connected to a mobile telecommunications network.
5. Confirmation of Ownership
5.1 If you have a Vehicle which is capable of receiving Services, once you have created a Connected Profile, you may link the Vehicle to your Connected Profile using the App.
5.2 In order to link the Vehicle to your Connected Profile you will be required to confirm that you are the legal owner of the Vehicle or have the clear and undisputed permission from the legal owner to use the Vehicle as a Primary User (as defined below) ("Confirmation of Ownership").
5.3 To complete Confirmation of Ownership you will need to follow and complete the Confirmation of Ownership process as described in the App. This process may require you to have access to the Vehicle and enter certain information into the App and/or the Vehicle's in-vehicle display unit (the "Vehicle Display Unit") such as the vehicle identification number ("VIN").
5.4 The individual who has completed the Confirmation of Ownership for the Vehicle shall be designated as the primary user of the Vehicle for the purposes of the Services and these Services Terms ("Primary User"). The Primary User is responsible for all access to, and use of, the App and Services in connection with the Vehicle.
5.5 Once Confirmation of Ownership has been completed, the Vehicle will be displayed in a virtual car profile within the App which shows the Vehicles associated with your Connected Profile ("Car Profile"). Please note that designation as the Primary User and/or completion of the Confirmation of Ownership does not mean that you become the legal owner of the Vehicle. This is purely a process implemented by Honda for managing the Services.
5.6 By completing the Confirmation of Ownership and/or a Periodic Confirmation of Ownership (as described in clauses 5 and 6), you warrant and represent to Honda that you are the legal owner of the Vehicle or have the clear and undisputed permission from the legal owner to use the Vehicle as a Primary User. If you are in breach of this clause 5.6, then you agree to pay Honda and/or the legal owner of the Vehicle any losses, costs or other amounts which may be caused or incurred as a result of your wrongful Confirmation of Ownership or Periodic Confirmation of Ownership.
6. Periodic Confirmation of Ownership
6.1 In addition to Confirmation of Ownership when a Connected Profile is linked to the Vehicle for the first time as described in clause 5, from time to time you will be required to re-confirm that you are still the legal owner of the Vehicle or still have permission from the legal owner to use the Vehicle as a Primary User ("Periodic Confirmation of Ownership").
6.2 In order to complete Periodic Confirmation of Ownership, you will be notified from time to time by Honda that you must re-complete Confirmation of Ownership by following the instructions in the App.
6.3 Periodic Confirmation of Ownership is a measure introduced by Honda to help prevent unauthorised usage of the Services and must be completed within the timeframes prescribed by Honda in its notification to you. If you do not complete the Periodic Confirmation of Ownership within the prescribed timeframes, Honda shall be entitled to suspend the Services. In the event of a suspension of the Services, and provided you have an active Service Package which has not expired, you are able to have the suspended Services reinstated at any time by subsequently completing the Periodic Confirmation of Ownership.
6.4 Honda shall not be responsible or liable to you for any loss of or interruption to the Services whatsoever if there is a suspension of the Services as a result of you failing to complete a Periodic Confirmation of Ownership. Similarly, where you have paid for Services in advance (for example through a Subscription Service Package) you agree that you are not entitled to a refund or compensation in relation to any period during which the Services are suspended.
7. Invited Users
7.1 This clause 7 applies if Honda permits the Primary User to allow additional individuals to use the App and/or the Services with the Vehicle ("Invited Users"). This is currently not available, but may become available in future.
7.2 The Primary User may nominate Invited Users by following the process set out in the App. You agree to only share with Honda the personal details or information of individuals who have requested to become Invited Users and have been provided with any information about such data sharing as may be required by applicable laws.
7.3 There may be limits on the permitted number of Invited Users that are allowed at any one time and further details of such limits are on the FAQ Pages. In order to use the App and/or the Services the Invited User is required to create a Honda Account and a Connected Profile by following the process set out in clause 3 or such other process as may be notified to the Invited User by Honda from time to time.
7.4 Except for clauses 4, 5 and 6, these Services Terms also apply to Invited Users who will need to accept these Services Terms when creating a Honda Account and Connected Profile by ticking digital acceptance boxes within the App. If you are an Invited User you understand that by accepting these Services Terms you will be legally bound by them and at the point of acceptance a legally binding agreement between you and Honda shall be formed. If you do not agree to these Services Terms you will not be able to become an Invited User.
7.5 The Invited User and the Primary User shall be liable to Honda for any acts or omissions of Invited Users and any other user or occupant of the Vehicle (including for any breach of these Services Terms) to the extent that such acts or omissions cause Honda to suffer a loss or incur cost.
7.6 Once an Invited User has completed the required steps, the Vehicle will be displayed in their Car Profile. Invited Users have more limited rights in respect of the Vehicle and the Services than Primary Users, and Invited Users are not able to purchase or subscribe to Service Packages (see clause 8) in their own right. Only the Primary User shall be entitled to purchase or subscribe to Service Packages for the Vehicle and set certain preferences for the Vehicle which the Invited User cannot change. Further information is available in the App.
7.7 If you are an Invited User you:
7.7.1 warrant and represent that you have been invited and authorised by the Primary User to access, use and/or benefit from the App and the Services in relation to the Vehicle you are registering as an Invited User for;
7.7.2 acknowledge that the Primary User and/or other Invited Users may be able to view certain information about your usage of the Vehicle and journey history (as further described in the collection statement and privacy policy); and
7.7.3 you shall have no rights or claims against Honda should the Primary User decide that you are no longer entitled to be an Invited User, including for any loss of use or availability of the Services.
8. Service Packages
8.1 The Services are bundled into packages ("Service Packages") from time to time, which may be provided by:
8.1.1 Honda as standard and/or at no charge ("Standard Service Packages");
8.1.2 Honda in return for a paid subscription ("Subscription Service Packages"); or
8.1.3 a third party organisation in return for a paid subscription ("Third Party Service Packages").
8.2 When purchasing or otherwise using certain Service Packages additional terms and conditions may apply to your purchase and/or use of those Service Packages ("Service Package Terms"). The Service Package Terms are set out at the end of these Services Terms or may be provided to you separately by Honda. If you use the Services making up any Service Packages then you shall be deemed to have accepted, and agree to comply with, the applicable Service Package Terms.
8.3 The Service Package Terms should be read together with these Services Terms. The Service Package Terms are subject to and form a part of these Services Terms and your overall legally binding agreement with Honda (as described in clause 1.4). If there is any conflict or inconsistency between clause 1 to clause 27 of these Services Terms and the Service Package Terms, the Service Package Terms shall prevail (to the extent of such conflict or inconsistency only). For the avoidance of doubt, any Third Party Service Package terms will not prevail over the Service Package Terms.
9. Content and usage of Service Packages
9.1 A Service Package shall, subject to clause 9.3, begin on the date it has been activated which shall be notified to you by Honda and end on the expiry date specified in the App ("Service Package Duration"). At the end of the Service Package Duration, Service Packages may be renewed or purchased in accordance with clause 10 or, if you have previously agreed, automatically renewed in accordance with clause 11. If a Service Package is not renewed or repurchased then you may not be able to use or receive the Services within that Service Package.
9.2 To the extent permitted by law, Honda shall be entitled to vary the content and features of the Service Packages with reasonable prior notice from time to time and Honda makes no guarantee that the Services making up the Standard Services Package will always be provided as standard and/or at no charge (where applicable). Such Services may change to requiring a paid subscription at Honda's discretion and if you wish to continue using such Services you may, for example, be required to purchase the Standard Service Package (or a Subscription Service Package or Third Party Service Package). You may terminate the Service Package within the notice period if you do not agree to the variation.
9.3 Honda may from time to time offer Service Packages on a complimentary basis for a specified Service Package Duration (and that Service Package Duration may begin at an earlier date than it is ultimately activated). Such an offer will be at Honda's absolute discretion and following the end of the applicable Service Package Duration you may be required to pay for the Service Package if you wish to continue to receive the Services.
9.4 All Service Packages are non-transferable (whether to another person or another Vehicle). If the Vehicle is sold or its ownership is transferred before the end of the Service Package Duration then any new owner or user of the Vehicle will be required to purchase a new Service Package if they wish to use or receive the benefit of the Services. Honda shall not be required to issue a refund for any unused portion of a Service Package and you accept responsibility for any loss of use or expenditure if a Service Package ends before the Service Package Duration. For the avoidance of doubt any complementary Service Packages offered in connection with clause 9.2 are also non-transferable in accordance with this clause.
10. Ordering Service Packages
10.1 From time to time you may wish to order a Service Package from Honda, for example, because you want to use certain Services offered by Honda or because your existing Service Package has expired or terminated.

11.3 Ahead of a Service Package being automatically renewed in accordance with these Services Terms, we may send you an email or other communication to notify you that your Service Package Duration is coming to an end. Please follow the process set out in the App or contact Honda if you no longer want your Service Package to be automatically renewed.

In order to exercise your right of cancellation you must follow the process described in the App. For the process applicable to Third Party Service Packages, please see clause 13 below.
