Terms of use

Draft, not yet in force. Hindsight is in preview and is not selling reports. These terms will be completed and reviewed before launch.

Who we are

Hindsight is a car history check at hindsightcheck.co.uk. Contact: hello@hindsightcheck.co.uk. The legal name and address of the business will be added here before launch.

What the service does

You give us a UK vehicle registration. We return records held about that vehicle by DVSA, DVLA and, in the full report, licensed vehicle registers covering finance agreements, insurance write-offs, stolen markers and salvage auctions.

What the service does not do

• It does not inspect the vehicle or confirm its mechanical condition.
• It cannot report events that were never recorded, such as repairs made without an insurance claim.
• It does not confirm that a seller owns the vehicle or has the right to sell it.

Use the report alongside your own inspection of the vehicle and its documents.

Accuracy

We pass on records as our data suppliers hold them at the moment of your check. Records can be late, incomplete or wrong at source. Any data guarantee that applies to the full report, and its conditions, will be set out here before launch.

Paying and refunds

The free check costs nothing. The full report is a digital service delivered immediately, so by asking for it you agree that it starts straight away and that the usual 14-day right to cancel ends once the report is delivered. If a report fails to deliver, we refund it.

Fair use

The service is for people deciding whether to buy, sell or keep a vehicle. Don't use it to build a database, resell reports or run automated lookups.

Law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. Nothing here limits rights you have as a consumer.
