Volvo Cars Terms of Services

Effective from:

Published at:

Volvo Cars offers you services to provide Freedom to Move in a personal, sustainable and safe way (“Services”).

Examples of our Services are the Volvo Cars App, Digital Services, Remote Vehicle Services, connected safety, or car sharing. Some Services vary depending on market and other Services are in car functions that differ by car model and year. Not all Services are available in all markets.

The Volvo Cars entity providing Services to you in Mexico is Volvo Car México, S.A. de C.V., Juan Salvador Agraz 73, Mezannine, Col. Santa Fe, Cuajimalpa, Ciudad de México, 05348, which is referred in these Terms to as “Volvo Cars” or “we”, “us” or “our”, and includes any affiliate of Volvo Cars (“Affiliate”).

Service providers and contracting entities

For Volvo Cars Digital Services and Remote Services subscriptions, as well as for other Services where so communicated, Volvo Cars is the service provider. If you purchased your car directly from us then such subscribed Services form part of your contract with us. If you purchased your car from a Retailer, then a separate contract for the subscribed Services directly between you and Volvo Cars covers the provision of these Services from us to you. When the relevant subscription period ends, you will need to renew the subscription or purchase a new subscription for the Services in question if you wish to continue using them. If you choose not to prolong or renew the Digital Services they will be turned off, which also may affect the functionality of other car applications and Third Party Services.

For some Services we may nominate an Affiliate to provide the Services. We will notify you of the Affiliate either through any applicable Specific Terms, in the order process, by email or the Volvo Cars App.

Where Volvo Cars uses a third party as a subcontractor to provide part of a Service, Volvo Cars will remain responsible for the Service unless otherwise agreed between you and Volvo Cars or as otherwise stated in these Terms, any applicable Specific Terms and/or Third Party Terms or Documentation. Volvo Cars may also make Third Party Services available to you, such Third Party Services to be contracted independently and directly by you with the specific third party providing the Third Party Services. Volvo Cars shall be in no event a party to an agreement between you and the third party providing the Third Party Services.

What terms apply?

All Services are subject to these Volvo Cars Terms of Services (“Terms”) and may be subject to Specific Terms, Third Party Terms or Documentation.

To use a Service, you must accept these Terms (which may include specific service descriptions below e.g. Remote Vehicle Services), in some cases separate Specific Terms, and any applicable Third Party Terms by pressing or clicking a confirmation button, or if purchasing a Service by placing an order, and following your acceptance a binding agreement is entered into between you and Volvo Cars for use of the relevant Service. The Terms apply to Third Party Services only to the extent necessary for the provision of that Third Party Service.

“Specific Terms” are separate terms and/or service descriptions from us applicable in addition to these Terms, for a particular Service. Specific Terms should be read with and subject to these Terms.

“Third Party Services” are services provided by an independent third party, separate from our Services, and our primary role is making these available to you. You may be required to pay fees and/or accept the Third Party´s Terms as a condition of using the Third Party Service.

“Third Party Terms” are separate terms and conditions between you and a Third Party relevant to a Third Party Service.

“Documentation” refers to other information about particular Services available at various places throughout the Volvo Cars eco-system, e.g. Owner´s Manual, at https://www.volvocars.com/intl/support, at https://www.volvocars.com, in Volvo Cars apps, in your Volvo car and/or at your local Volvo Cars retailer. Documentation may contain legal terms and conditions as well as restrictions on how you are entitled to use a particular Service, and these form part of the contract between you and Volvo Cars. If the Documentation and these Terms or any Specific Terms should conflict, the latter shall prevail. Nothing contained in the Documentation grants you the right to use a specific Service.

USING A SERVICE

Requirements

You may use a Service only if you are: (a) of age, (b) capable of forming a contract, and (c) not barred from using the Service under applicable law.

The “Primary Driver” of a Volvo car is the person who has the right to dispose of it, uses it in a permanent manner as a means of transport and/or is registered as the owner, lessee, subscriber or authorised user of the car at a national authority (if any). The Primary Driver may not necessarily be the owner of the car e.g. the lessee of a Volvo car while the leasing company is the owner, or subscriber to a Care by Volvo car. You must be the Primary Driver or have the Primary Driver´s clear and undisputed consent (“Primary Drivers’ Consent”) to use a Service in any way linked to a specific Volvo car or link a Service to a specific Volvo car or to any other Service. We may at any time investigate whether you are the Primary Driver or have the Primary Driver´s Consent.

Any links made between a Volvo car and a Service or between different Services can at any time be deactivated as described in the Documentation. You are obliged to deactivate any links if you no longer are the Primary Driver of the car or no longer have the Primary Drivers’ Consent.

Services may vary depending on the Volvo car model and model year, your country of residence, where the Volvo car is registered, was sold and is used, your primary language, the mobile network provider, the infotainment system and application services provider(s). If the Volvo car is not equipped with the necessary technical features or if you do not fulfil the requirements set out in these Terms, any Specific Terms and/or any Third Party Terms for the particular Service, we are not obliged to provide you with the Service(s). We make information available about our Services and any applicable requirements which you should read and understand before you purchase or subscribe to that Service.

Services may also vary depending on your own access to a certain device(s) (e.g. mobile devices or computers with specific software and operating systems). If your device(s) is not equipped with the necessary technical features or does not fulfil the requirements set out in these Terms and any Third Party Terms for the particular Service, we are not obliged to provide you with the Service(s). We are not responsible where a Service is not available, has reduced or impacted availability or operation due to reasons beyond our reasonable control such as connectivity, geographic, or topographic conditions (such as remote locations, underground parking, tall buildings, hills or tunnels), damage to or failure to maintain the car or the equipment in good working order, government laws, rules or regulations, failure, congestion or outages of utility or wireless networks, cyber-attacks, war, act of God, natural disaster, inclement weather, and labour strikes. unscheduled downtime, service or software updates or errors.

Some Services require internet or mobile data access to operate. Your Volvo car may include the cost of access for a certain period, otherwise you must purchase access, but in most cases your access will be subject to Third Party Terms e.g. from the internet service or telecommunication provider (“Data Services Provider”). Volvo Cars is not, and no time will be a Data Services Provider.

Your access to and use of the Services may be subject to the satisfactory completion of a verification process that includes a mandatory ‘know your customer’ check. In this process, certain documentation and personal information must be provided to either Volvo Cars or the Data Services Provider. In some cases, you may be asked to submit additional documentation to successfully pass the identification process.

Certain features provided in the Services must only be used when you have the Volvo car in sight or otherwise are assured that it is safe to use and without risk of damage to property or persons, as described in these Terms, Specific Terms or Documentation. All Services should only be used by you in compliance with the relevant laws in your market and should not be used for any illegal purposes. You must use features and Services made available to you in accordance with all applicable road and traffic laws in your jurisdiction. Volvo Car’s features complement safe driving practices and are not intended to enable or encourage distracted, aggressive, or otherwise unsafe or illegal driving. Ultimately, you are responsible for safe and lawful operation of the vehicle at all times. Any warranty regarding the suitability, safety or possibility to use a Service is subject to our Disclaimer of warranty.

Volvo ID

Use of many Services requires you to have an active Volvo ID. A Volvo ID is a unique, personal and non-transferable account and is how we provide you with access to Services within the Volvo Cars ecosystem. The Volvo ID and related functionality is a Service and governed by these Terms. Creation and use of Volvo ID is free of charge.

Some Services may require you to link your Volvo ID to one or more Volvo cars.

By registering a Volvo ID, you confirm that the data provided to us by you is and remains accurate and that the Volvo ID is created for use in accordance with these Terms. You also confirm that we can contact you on the email address you specified when you registered your Volvo ID. We will not use this email address for direct marketing unless: (a) the direct marketing concerns a product or service that is similar to one you already purchased, and you have not opted out of receiving the direct marketing, or (b) in all other situations, you have given us your express permission to do so.

Change of ownership/Primary Driver of a Volvo car

In case of a change of ownership and/or a change of the Primary Driver (if not the owner) of a Volvo car you must promptly deactivate all Services related to that Volvo car by using the ´reset to factory settings´. Depending on the Volvo car model and model year you may need to take the car to a local Volvo retailer to complete the reset and a fee may be payable. You must promptly deactivate the link between your Volvo ID and the transferred Volvo as well as all Services and any related data. More information on how to deactivate the Services can be found in the Documentation. You can also ask your local Volvo Cars retailer https://www.volvocars.com/es/support/topics/volvo-on-call/aplicacion/volvo-on-call---cambio-de-propietario.

If we become aware of any change of ownership and/or a change of the Primary Driver (if not the owner) of a Volvo car with one or more Volvo IDs linked to it, we may immediately block or deactivate these links unless you can show that you are the Primary Driver or have the Primary Driver's Consent to continue using your Volvo ID in relation to the Volvo car. Unless required by applicable law, a Volvo car owner or Primary Driver will not have the right to access information about previous owners, Primary Drivers, or Volvo IDs previously linked to the Volvo car.

SERVICES

You can access many Services through our main app, the “Volvo Cars App” which manages your interaction with Volvo Cars. You need a Volvo ID to use the Volvo Cars App. There are some Services or functionality that are free, while others required a subscription or must be purchased.

Digital Services

Some Volvo cars are sold or compatible with a Digital Services package that can include:

  • Google maps, Google digital assistant and Google Play app store
  • Remote Vehicle Services
  • data included.

The exact products and features that are available and/or are included in the Digital Services can differ between markets.

Remote Vehicle Services

Remote Vehicle Services is a wireless Service connected to your Volvo car. The product was formerly called Volvo On Call and it may still be referred to by this name in some instances e.g. phones running on older operating systems, the VOC in car button, in Documentation that has not yet been updated.

You may be able to use functions from your mobile phone:

  • remotely perform commands - start the heater, start the engine, send directions
  • see information about your car - temperature, fuel or electric range, unlocked doors, alarm activation, required maintenance, driver journal, electricity usage
  • track your car, create driving records.

You may be able to also use some functions directly from your Volvo car:

  • automatically alert emergency service in the event of an accident from your Volvo car
  • contact a Volvo Cars call centre.

Most functions require that the Volvo Cars App is downloaded and used on your mobile phone. You can read our Product Description for Digital Services that also describes Remote Vehicle Services here.

Digital Services and Remote Vehicle Services subscriptions

An active subscription is required for Digital Services or Remote Vehicle Services to operate.

Usually, a subscription for Digital Services or Remote Vehicle Services is provided with the purchase of a new Volvo car, between 3 and 5 years – we provide information in local markets, check with a retailer or our Volvo Cars website (“Initial Subscription”).

You can extend your subscription after the Initial Subscription ends. You can read information about how subscriptions work under "Subscriptions and renewals".

All Digital Services or Remote Vehicle Services subscriptions follow the car and not you – so if you sell the Volvo car then the subscription is available only to the new owner. You must inform Volvo that you no longer own the car and cancel any rolling subscriptions to avoid future payments. The Digital Services or Remote Vehicle Services will remain available in connection with the car until the end of the relevant subscription period.

Remote Vehicle Services disclaimers

Remote Vehicle Services aims to support you and passengers in the event of accidents or car theft, subject to the scope and functions of Remote Vehicle Services but: (a) is not a contract of insurance, and Volvo Cars has no liability to any insurance company in respect of your Volvo car, (b) is not intended to substitute or replace any other anti-theft equipment installed in your Volvo car, (c) does nor replace or substitute any state or national emergency service available to you, and (d) must be used in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. Volvo Cars makes no representations or warranties that a stolen vehicle will be recovered.

DIGITAL BOOKING

What is Digital Booking?

Digital Booking is a Volvo Cars Service, available either through the Volvo Cars App or online, that enables you to book a time for Service of your Volvo car, or other Valet services, with a Retailer.

Definitions used for Digital Booking are:

  • “Digital Booking” means each separate confirmed request for Service or Valet services.
  • “Driver” means a person employed or contracted by a Retailer that, drives customer and loaner vehicle back and forth between the customer’s location and service center, delivers test drive vehicles to a preferred location for the customer, performs a lease exchange with a customer or delivers a new purchased vehicle to a preferred location.
  • “Lease Exchange” means that a swap of your lease or subscription vehicle is being made at a preferred location.
  • “Retailer” means a business independent of Volvo Cars that is authorised to sell Volvo branded passenger cars and/or provide other related services including Valet.
  • “Servicing” means specific services, to be determined and agreed between you and Volvo Cars or a Retailer, in relation to your Volvo vehicle for example routine maintenance, warranty service, etc.
  • “Test Drive” means to have a vehicle delivered to a preferred location and then being able to test drive the vehicle.
  • “User” means employees of Volvo Cars or a Retailer that work with Volvo Valet and the accompanying product Birdseye and have access to customer accounts and data.

  • “Vehicle Delivery” means to have a newly purchased vehicle delivered to a preferred location.

Volvo Cars does not perform any Servicing through Digital Booking – it is only a technical platform that enables you to book a time for Servicing your Volvo car by a Retailer.

Valet includes an employee or contractor of a Retailer going to an agreed location at an agreed date and time to retrieve and return your Volvo car.

If the Retailer offers loaner (or courtesy) vehicles, then one may be provided – you will need to agree any additional terms in connection with the loaner this with the Retailer.

When the Valet service is complete, a Digital Booking is scheduled with you to deliver your car to an agreed location at an agreed date and time.

You can manage your Digital Bookings on the Volvo Cars App. Managing a Digital Booking involves:

  • Scheduling an appointment for your Volvo car to be picked up at an agreed upon location (either within the Volvo Cars App or by calling a service center that offers the service);
  • Meet the designated Driver (defined above) at the appropriate location, date, and time.
  • Provide your Volvo car’s key.
  • Follow instructions provided by the Driver.
  • Follow your Digital Booking’s progress in the Volvo Cars App.
  • Schedule an appointment for the return of your vehicle following the steps above.

Service Provider Interactions

Using Digital Booking is free of charge.

Servicing: Unless you have purchased, or subscribed to, your Volvo car from Volvo Cars directly:

  • All work performed on your Volvo car by the Retailer is subject to a separate contract between you and the Retailer.
  • The prices which are displayed on Digital Booking are provided by Retailers and not by Volvo Cars. You need to confirm the scope of Servicing and the price with the Retailer before your Volvo car is serviced.

Valet services: Volvo Cars does not, through Valet, provide any vehicles itself. Retailers are responsible for the pickup, delivery, and sharing customer and/or loaner vehicles. The agreement regarding Valet services and any fees is exclusively between you and the Retailer. Volvo Cars is not involved in the screening or engagement of Drivers by Retailers. Volvo Cars does not guarantee that the pickup and delivery of a vehicle through Valet will be successful.

Claims arising out of or which are related to Digital Booking, Valet, Servicing or any other services performed or provided by a Retailer or a Driver shall exclusively be dealt with between you and the Retailer, and to the extent permissible under law Volvo Cars shall not be liable for any loss or damage. Retailers are always responsible for the acts or omissions of its employees, agents and contractors.

Digital Booking is only a technical platform that enables you to book a time for Servicing or Valet, or for Users to support the performance of pickup and deliveries through Valet.

You may cancel the use of Digital Booking by emailing cld-luxedata@grp.volvocars.com

PURCHASING SERVICES

Ordering Services

Before you can use a Service that requires payment, you will need to complete an online order process, confirm your order and pay for the Service. Please take the time to read and check your order at each step of the process. By placing your order, a binding agreement is entered into between you and Volvo Cars for use of the relevant Service unless we reject your order (the “Contract”).

Upon finalising your order, you will see an order confirmation on the screen and we will also send you a receipt/invoice email containing relevant details about your order and a unique order ID number that should be referred to in any subsequent queries or correspondence relating to your order. Alternatively, we may contact you to say that we do not accept your order. This is typically because: (a) we cannot authorise your payment, or (b) you are not entitled to purchase the Service.

Payment

A Service is usually ordered and paid for through the Volvo Cars App or online, using only commonly used credit or debit cards via a secure online payment system.

We use Third Party payment services and, by providing your credit or debit card information, you expressly authorize our payment provider to charge applicable fees on this payment method as well as taxes and other charges you incur and agree to the handling of the payment transaction and your card details and any other information necessary for a payment transaction to be executed by the relevant third party (including but not limited to fraud prevention). We only use Third Party payment services that are certified by banks and card acquirers to securely manage payment transactions. All communication between our website and your bank is handled by Third Party payment services.

Right to cancel

You may cancel your Contract within 14 days after entering into your Contract without giving any reason.

To exercise your right of cancellation, you must inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract by a clear statement. You can do this by sending your cancellation by post to our address noted above or contact us. You can use this form to give cancellation, although it is not required.

If you decide to cancel the Contract, we will without undue delay reimburse you for all payments which we have received from you in relation to the Contract. If you have used the Service before you exercise your right of cancellation, we may make a reasonable deduction from the reimbursement corresponding to your use of the Service.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction. You will not incur any fees from us as a result of the reimbursement.

Nothing in these Terms will affect your statutory rights, whether in relation to your withdrawal right or otherwise.

Subscriptions and renewals

In some markets it is possible to subscribe to a Service on rolling basis where the subscription will automatically renew e.g. monthly, and in others only for fixed periods e.g. quarterly, or annually.

For fixed subscriptions you will be charged in advance and the subscription will not automatically renew. If you have a fixed subscription, you may exercise your Right to cancel, in which case you will receive a refund.

For rolling subscriptions (other than annual rolling subscriptions), you will be charged in advance for the subscription period. You can give notice of cancellation at any time and your subscription will end at the beginning of the next subscription period, subject to your Right to cancel (during the 14 days immediately after your subscription first begins) in which case you will receive a refund.

If you have a rolling annual subscription, you will be charged in advance and you may exercise your Right to cancel during the 14 days immediately after the renewed subscription period begins, in which case you will receive a refund.
