These terms govern your use of dotauto.com.au. By using the website you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.
This site is operated by:
- Dot Auto Pty Ltd (LMCT-0012877; Truganina, VIC)
- Dot Auto Brisbane Pty Ltd (DL-4734245; Loganholme, QLD)
Either entity, depending on which showroom you're dealing with.
1. Use of the website
The website is provided for personal, non-commercial use. You agree:
- Not to interfere with the site's operation or security
- Not to scrape, copy, or republish content without our written consent
- Not to use the site for any unlawful purpose
We may suspend or restrict access if you breach these terms.
2. Vehicle listings
We aim to keep vehicle listings accurate and up to date, but we don't guarantee that all information is current. Stock changes daily — a car shown as available online may have been sold by the time you call. We recommend confirming availability and specifications with us directly before making a trip.
Listed prices are guides only and exclude on-road costs unless explicitly stated as "drive-away." Final prices are subject to a written quotation.
3. Photos and descriptions
Vehicle photos are taken of the actual vehicle where possible, but minor variations between the photo and the car can occur (e.g. updated trim levels, post-photo cleaning). We'll confirm key specifications in writing before purchase.
4. Rent-to-own and finance
The rent-to-own calculator on this site provides indicative figures only. It is not a quote or an offer. Actual terms depend on the specific vehicle, your individual circumstances, and the signed agreement.
We are not licensed credit providers under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009 (Cth). Rent-to-own is a consumer rental arrangement, not a credit product, and is regulated under each state's fair-trading legislation.
5. Trade-ins
Trade-in values shown or estimated online are guides only. Final offers depend on physical inspection of the vehicle.
6. Intellectual property
The Dot Auto name, logos, photographs, and website design are owned by us or licensed to us. You may not copy, reproduce, or modify them without our written consent. Linking to dotauto.com.au is fine.
7. Third-party links and content
The site may contain links to third-party websites (for example, finance partners, insurance providers, map services). We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content or practices.
8. Disclaimers
We provide the website "as is." To the extent permitted by law, we don't guarantee that:
- The site will be available without interruption
- Content will be error-free
- The site is free from viruses or other harmful components
You're responsible for your own internet connection and device security.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- Our liability for any claim arising from your use of this website is limited to AUD $100 in aggregate
- We're not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including loss of profit, loss of opportunity, or loss of goodwill
Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded.
10. Privacy
Our handling of personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy.
11. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland (when dealing with Dot Auto Brisbane Pty Ltd) or Victoria (when dealing with Dot Auto Pty Ltd). You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the relevant state.
12. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects when they last changed. Continued use of the website after changes means you accept them.
