- AIM RESERVES THE RIGHT TO VOID, UNWIND, OR CANCEL ANY TRANSACTION IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION
- Specifically, as it pertains to vehicle inspection services and condition reports: AiM expressly disclaims all express and/or implied warranties as to merchantability, fitness, or any other matter whatsoever. For example, as it pertains to vehicle inspections and vehicle inspection reports, and in no way limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, the information contained within this vehicle condition report and all attachments to it (“Report”) is accurate to the best of the inspector’s knowledge and observations, but cannot be guaranteed as its scope and accuracy are limited to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, to the type of inspection ordered by YOU or other third party (for example, some dealers do not order the vehicle to be placed on a lift for the inspection) general accessibility to the item inspected with only minimal disassembly and without a computerized measuring system, and environmental factors such as weather. The vehicle inspection is intended solely as an assessment of said vehicle's condition at the time and date of examination, and pertains only to the items visually inspected and identified in the Report at the time of the inspection. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing, the inspection does not cover mechanical items. As such, there are no implied or express warranties or guarantees of any kind in connection with this vehicle inspection or Report as, in general, there is an inherent risk of unknown prior damage and repair with any used vehicle and used vehicles may have unknown damage or repair not found on inspection. AiM specifically disclaims any liability for any loss or damage arising in connection with the purchase, ownership or operation of said vehicle AND further disclaims any liability of any hidden wreck, damage, defect, or tampered components not readily apparent or not found during this inspection, as well as other conditions that may exist which did not occur or appear during inspection. In short, this Report is for information only and is not to be considered a recommendation for or against the purchase of the inspected vehicle.
6. Arbitration Rules: For any legal disputes arising from the use of AiM’s Websites, Products, or Services, or any other transaction with AiM, You agree to be bound by the AiM Arbitration Policies as set forth in this Section 6, which may be amended unilaterally by us from time to time.

The disputes and claims subject to arbitration pursuant to this Section 6will be resolved by a single arbitrator selected pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Rules.

Various technologies are used to automatically collect information, such as cookies, local shared objects, and web beacons (generally referred to as “Data Technologies.”) “Cookies” are small identifiers sent from a web server that are stored on your device for the purpose of identifying your browser or storing information or settings in your browser. “Local shared objects,” sometimes known as Flash cookies, may be used to store your preferences or display content based upon what you have viewed on various websites to personalize your visit. A “web beacon,” also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and their cookies. Anonymous advertising identifiers are increasingly being used on mobile devices and otherwise in a manner similar to cookies. When we refer to Data Technologies, we are including all current and similar future technologies.
One or more Data Technologies may be used on the Sites and other websites and mobile applications (that may not be the Sites) by us, by another party on our behalf, or by third parties in accordance with their privacy policies. Data Technologies may be used by us and others, on our behalf and on their own behalf, to transmit information to you or about you and connect information about you from different sources, websites, devices, and mobile applications.
We may use a uniquely generated trackable toll-free telephone number on the Sites or in advertisements. If you call one of these uniquely generated toll-free numbers, we (or a service provider acting on our behalf) may collect non-personally identifiable information about the call (e.g. date, time, duration), as well as personally identifiable information (e.g. your name, the number from which your call originated).
Videos. We may target and track the videos you view on the Sites. You consent to our tracking of your video viewing through the Site or third party social media for up to two years or as permitted by applicable law.

Integration between the Sites and social media networks such as Facebook, Twitter and others may allow social media networks in which you participate to collect information about you, even when you do not explicitly activate the network’s application or widget. Please visit the applicable social media network’s privacy policy to better understand their data collection practices and choices they make available to you. The privacy policy of the social media network controls the collection, use and disclosure of all personal information transmitted to that network.
Advertising Networks
Advertising that is customized based on predictions generated over time from your visits across different websites, devices and mobile applications is sometimes called "online behavioral" or "interest-based" advertising. We may partner with advertising networks, which are companies that deliver targeted advertisements to consumers and generate statistics and metrics related to the delivery of interest-based advertisements. They may utilize information collected through a variety of Data Technologies to provide customization, auditing, research and reporting for us, our affiliates and other advertisers. This data collection takes place both on the Sites and on third-party’s websites and mobile applications. This process allows the Sites and third parties to deliver targeted advertising, enhance marketing programs and help track the effectiveness of such efforts. Our advertising networks also may use this information for determining or predicting the characteristics and preferences of their respective advertising audiences and measuring the effectiveness of their advertising in accordance with their privacy policies.
We do not provide information that is directly associated with a specific person (such as name and address) to an advertising network when you interact with or view a customized advertisement. However, when you view or interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may make an assumption that you are interested in the subject matter of the advertisement.

You may see an icon in or around third-party advertisements on the Sites that use interest-based advertising programs and on pages where data is collected and used for online interest-based advertising. Clicking on this icon will provide additional information about the companies and data practices that were used to deliver the ad. You can opt out of delivery of targeted advertising to you by multiple companies by visiting www.aboutads.info/choiceswww.aboutads.info/choices and www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.Please note that even if you opt out, you will continue to receive advertisements, but they will not be tailored to your specific interests.
